But little is left now, and in the spring
of 1922, the Chapter will have to ap-

RED CROSS REPORT

has been only through the untiring
work of the Red Cross personnel that
this work has been done. This ef-
ficient staff has consisted of Miss Hill
da Fryoux for part of the year. and
Miss Ella Graham for the balance, as
Executive Secretary; Miss Maude
Chambers as Welfare Worker and
Miss Adele Escat as Office Assistant,
and their enthusiasm, energy and de-
votion to duty has been the primary
factor in the success of the work. In
addition, local physicians have been
very generous in giving services free
and numerous donations have been re-
ceived from individuals. To do this
work, a considerable expenditure was
necessary, as shown below:
Woman's enterprise., 1921-11-18
What This Organization Has Done
From July l, 1920 to July l, 1921.

The work Of the local Red Cross
has been very much broadened within
the past few years.
In addition to its work among the
disabled and needy ex-service men, it
has helped look after citizens of our
parish who were in need of medical
or financial assistance. It has done
the charity work formally carried on
by the United Charities and has been
the means Of relieving a great deal
OF poverty and distress.
The poor and needy have been taken
care OF within the limits of the Chap
ter's finances; groceries and coal have
been given where necessary; second
hand clothes collected and distribut-
ed; the sick looked after and hospital
attention obtained when needed. The
broad scope Of this work can be seen
by the detailed figures below:
Grocery orders given 1176
Families given assistance .......... 271I
Clients sent to hospital ............. 19'
Number of visits made ...........1,17o
Number children examined ...... 1875
Out of town calls ..............., 66
Several lectures on health were
given during the year.
Though the war ended three years
ago, many ex-service men still need
assistance, and the Chapter has tried
to help in every needy case: giving
assistance with back pay collections
and Insurance adjustments; helping
to obtain compensation for disability,
or vocational training; looking after
needy families that could not help
themselves; lending small sums where
the want was genuine and pressing.

New Orleans, La, Nov. 8, 1921
The Association of Normal Alumnaf
OF New Orleans is now inauguratine
campaign for a new building, in
which to house the increasing numbe,
OF applicants for the profession Of
teacher.
A special committee, consisting OF
Mrs. J. R. Morton, chairman, and
Mrs. Helen NJ. McCants and Mrs. T.
A. Duggan, from the alumnae, will
meet the Normal School Club, and
present petition for this cause.
When the building now used by this
school was turned over as the tempor-
ary quarters after the storm of 1915,
it was distinctly stated by the Or
leans School Board that a new
building along modern lines would be
shortly forthcoming. A fund as a
nucleus is already in hand, as a le-
gacy from Thomas A. Day, long a
citizen Of this city, and an enthusiast
tic worker for Normal methods in the
public schools.
The building used is now in high
ly congested portion of the city, amid
large garages, motor shops, etc., and
distinctly not the proper place for
such school. Even the plot of
ground until recently utilized for a
School garden" has been taken away
and devoted to commercial purposes.
Every effort will be put forth in an
endeavor to secure a new building for
our students who are to be teachers of
the future generation.

Mortality of Men and Women.

As a rule. men die younger than
women. In 1913 the death rate In this
country averaged 39.2 years for men as
compared with i0.6 years for women.
The shorter HE Of man Is probably
accounted for by his energetic life.
Women probably marry earlier than
men because their best chance for
marrying Is between the ages of twenty
and twenty-five when they are most at
tractive. 1t is found that about -
per cent of the women marry between
those ages. Men generally marry
when older. The difference In age
averages nbout three years. That is
why the laws are so arranged that man
becomes of age at twenty-one and
women at eighteen.

Does Mississippi Flow uphilIY

There is such an impression but 1t
is incorrect. The question is raised
by inaccurate use of the terms ''up-
hlll' and "downhill." People are in.
clined to speak of down" and "up"
in respect to distance from center of
the earth. II only small area Is con
sidered this is true. but In referring to
widely separated localities. such ms
the rise and mouth of the Mis-
sissippi system, such definition
does not hold good. The mouth
of the Mississippi is about four miles
further from the center of the earth
than its source. The combined effect
Of gravity and centrifugal force makes
the water run downhill though actual
ly the water moves away from the
center of the earth In doing so.
