57,7S2. The death rate from tnber-
culosis is 1920 higher In the South
than In the Nation as a whole. One
reason for the exceedingly high death
rate in the South Is the great preva-

who are especially susceptible to tuber-
culosis, the death rate among them
being three and oneAhalf times that
among the whites. But inaSmuch as
the negroes will doubtless continue to

TT is interesting to know that certain
animals are governed by what appear
TO be almost military regulations.
Among animals only the gregarious, of
course, show qualities Of leadership and dis

Wild horses obey their leader more inn
plicitly than any soldiers, however well sat

proach and almost impossible to capture

famine grow, and every day those who
hope that the accounts may have been in

worse than any exaggeration.
Northeast of Brest-Litovsk, on the Rus.
sian border, lies Baranowice Camp, through
which Russian and Polish prisoners of war
and refugees are being returned to their
respective countries. 1t is estimated that
there are 10000 Russian soldiers still in
Poland, and about 10000 Poles still pris-
oners of war in Russia. Baranowice is one
of several camps on the Polish frontier
where these military exchanges take place,
and where the constantly increasing
stream of civilian refugees is becoming
great problem.
Returning from their temporary home
in Russia, the Polish refugees bring ap
palling accounts of the famine. For two
years back, they say, the crops have failed
and this year there is nothing to harvest
Fifty thousand of these destitute people
went through Baranowice Camp during
July. They are fed, disinfectek and pro

Women Have Equal Share

The women of these rural districts are
sturdy and Industrious workers. having all
equal share with the men in the life of the
community and dominant influence over
the younger generation. In old age they
are the repositories of the simple history
Of their times and the legendary tales of
the countryside.
The shrewd intelligence and industry
of the Polish peasant woman is proverbial.
It is toward this almost untouched reser-
