Russian Health
Department Is a
Fine Institution
(By Associated P,essl

NNN-N~NA
Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. 19!-The
Health department of Russia which
is aiding in the fight against famine
is described by representative of
the Friends Relief Mission in that
country as wonderful organization
Writing from Moscow, as she was
about to start from that city for Sa-
mara on health department train
carrying food donated by the Quak-
ers, Anna Louise Strong says:
"The train on which l go down to-
night has, besides its many cars of
food( travelling bakeshop that
bakes a ton of bread a day, kitch-
en-car that cooks 1000 portions at
one boiling, dispensary car beauti-
fully arranged but pitifully short of
medicines, waiting-room for pa
tients, sleeping-quarters and din
ing-room for the staff, and bath
and laundry. 1t will travel like a
fast passenger train, carrying relief
which the Russian peasants them
selves have given out of their own
poverty.
"The health department is non-po-
litical and under doctors control. 1t
has thousands of clinics and substa-
tons all over Russia. 1t works
quickly.
I'VE went to DR.. Trebugov, it's
head of transport, with our offer of
food, and in three hours our wagons
were assigned, our permits issued,
our food properly divided among the
three neediest districts to which
trains were going within a few days.
We had only to load the wagons, seal
them, put our own personnel in
charge or allow their doctors to han
die as we chose.
ut was up to US; we could work in
any way we chose through them, and
we could work quickly. If we had
not automobiles enough for loading
they offered us theirs.
"They are tackling an enormous
job and doing it we'll. But their own
organization is reported breaking in
the district famine districts because
of the starvation of doctors and
nurses. They have the organization
but they haven't the food, because all
Russia hasn't it, Unless this health
organization is kept intact, pestil-
ence will sweep Europe. AS I came
from Warsaw to Poland, I saw no

Monument to the
"Marianna Raid"
Victims Ready
(By Associated Press.)

Mariana, Oct. Heterogeneous
have been completed for the unveil-
ing here, November 2, of monu-
ment, to the memory of the Confed-
crate soldiers who fell in the Mari
anna raid of September 81, 1864.
The battle was one of the three
fought on Florida soil during the
civil war. The legislature at its last
session appropriated $4,000 for the
erection of the monument, which
supplements a fund raised by the To-
cal chapter of the United Daughters
of the Confederacy.
The unwilling ceremonies will be
under the direction of the Florida
division of the U. D. C. Mrs. Frank
M. Tracy, president of the Florida
division at Pensacola, will make the
presentation address and Gov. Har.
dee will deliver the unwilling ad-
dress.
The program for the ceremonies
calls for street parade in which
national guardsmen, Confederate
veterans and others will participate.
A 20 piece band from the naval sta
ton at Pensacola, will furnish the
music for the occasion.
The monument is of Georgia gran
lite, 35 feet in height.

KING CONSTANTINE
ROUCH|NG II WITH
HIS SOLDIER BOYS

iielilf' AhatoIla, Oct. 49,
When King Constantine departed
from Athens for the Asia Minor
front he left behind whatever luxu-
RES pleasures and diversions belong
TO a monarch. Today, he is living
IN mud house in this ancient Turk
ism settlement, with only his aide
ue-camPs as companions. His living
room, which is adorned with quota.
tons from the Koran, was until re-
Gently the harem of prosperous To-
cal Turk. His bed is a modest iron
affair that might be found in anv
American lodging house.
The King eats the same coarse
1000 as his soldiers. The palace
cooks and chefs were left in Athens
Eskl-Shehir affords little that could
be called luxurious. The chief diet
OF the $4,000 inhabitants is coarse
black bread and sour milk ("yout").
This is not Constantine's regimen.
but often his meals have consisted
only of the native Turkish bread, a
can of sardines and a fragment of
goats cheese. There is no wine to
be had here. Tea, coffee and water
are the universal beverages.
When the King received The AS
soclated Press correspondent, he ap-
oligized for the poor surroundings
and expressed the hope that the re-
porter had found better accommoda-
tons.
Il suppose We must expect some
discomforts and inconvenience in a
country like ASIA said Constantine
indulgently, "but l wouldn't mind if
only the houses were clean. This
place wasn't fit for habitation when
| came here first. But now after
many days of sweeping, scrubbing
and disinfecting we've managed to
make the rooms tolerably clean.
"Since | came to Anatolia l think
I've encountered every form of in
sect and bug that natural history
speaks of. My greatest desire is to
get a real bath"
Apart from the rather severe liv-
ing conditions that confront the
King, he has few or no diversions.
He seldom ventures outside the walls
of his homeiy Turkish domicile. 1t
probably would be unsafe to do so.
Except for officers of the army, he
has few or no visitors. His personal
admirers and the habitutes of the
court, of course, remained in Athens
The King passes much of his time
perusing reports from his army and
reading American and foreign books
and newspapers.
Being a soldier, Constantine doesn't
seem to mind the lack of comforts
and the little hardships he has to
contend with here. He is essential
ly democratic and simple in his tastes
1t is this democracy and simplicity
that have endeared him to his SOL
diers. That is why they call him
"patera" (our father.
The Kings health has nto permit
ted him to take active command in
the field. He still has traces of his
old pleural trouble.

The Workmen agree to this, because
