refugees and Is additional physicians
were sent to Saloniki.
The miserable condition of the refu-
gees had been reported to the queen
by Colonel Olds, the American Red
Cross commissioner for Europe, who
inspected their camp. Queen Sophie
then sent DIR. Theophanos Aggelopou-
los, an eminent sanitary expert. as her
personal representative to take charge
of the camp. He brought corps OF
ten physicians Until that time only
one physician had administered to the
thousands III among the refugees.
There had been no one to look after
sanitation.

The American Red Cross has sent to

children will be given medical atten-

the Greek government. The expenses
of this work will be borne by the gov

Miss Lillian Spellman, Boston
nurse. is conducting a Red Cross dis
pensary at the camp. where she dis
tributes cans of milk and soon will dis
tribute clothing to the small children.
Many of the refugees were lured by
promise of rich lands In Macedonia,
but the majority fled from the Cau-
casus. before the advances of the Boil
sheviki and the Turkish nationals un--
der Kemal Pasha.
1000 Die In Month.
The 10000 are huddled together In
barracks which were not intended to
hold half that number. A Red Cross
inspector visited the camp reports
that disease such as typhus, dysentery
and influenza is prevalent, and that
more than 1000 of the refugees died
within a month.
The Greek governor. General Zazlt-
sanos. Is in despair, for he expects 49,
900 additional refugees to arrive soon
and says that there are more than 5O,-
900 others trying to reach Greece. The
fund appropriated by the Greek gov
ernment to feed, clothe and provide
medical attention will be exhausted
within a month. say the relief agents.

IT HERE IL a dangerous forgetfulness In
pearls; cup Of Lethe in their lustre This,
= at least, IS the philosophy and the teaching
OF NJ ROumassi, the celebrated Partisan who has
spent his life in the purchase, sale and study Of
these precious by-products Of the tortured oyster.
Unlike the diamond, the pearl is a lRe-p product
And, unlike the diamond, which will only sue
cumb to extreme heat, the pearl has a fragility
that suggests human beings susceptibility to
change and decay. NJ Roumassi gives it as q
firm belief that the pearl has a quality Of life a
sort Of electric vibrancy which it can pass on to
one who wears it. And 1t is this quality that in
duoes forgetfulness Of surroundings and, fire.
Quen5iy, Of the pearls themselves.
This theory, of course, sounds fanciful If not
downright foolish to practical minds. Many per-
sons, including several prominent American Jew
eers. have openly scofFed at NJ. Roumassi. Yet
whether one believes the theory or not, it is
indsputably true
That Mrs Charles L. Tiffany lost string Of
pearls worth $4,000.
That Miss Barbara Guggenheim lost pearl
necklace worth $4,000 on the Of the
nouncement Of her betrothal.
That a purse containing a pair Of pearl ear
rings belonging 70 Mrs. E. R. Thomas disap-
peared recently a trip to Montreal.
That none Of these ladies could remember Just
how she lost them or any Of the circumstances

DREAMS By Nan Terrell Reed.

He longed to live a story
 Of the desert-island brand, Where a man can play the hero On a stage of burning sand. He dreamed of writing verses That the world would label good, With a meter of perfection And a theme misunderstood. He thought with joy of travel Meath an unfamiliar sky. But he simply couldn't do it. So he simply didn't try. For his days were full of farming And his middle name was Foil. And he had to spend the hours On unromantic soil; And there wasn' t any prospect Of hls reaching foreign lands, For the anchor to his acre
 Was pair of loving hands. So he didn't live the story
 Of the desert-islaud brand. But he made a decent garden From strip of stony land. He was anchored to an acre
 But he managed. on the whole, To keep a perfect meter
 In the poem of his soul.
