Nurses Present Pleasant
Entertainment y

entertainment
Last Saturday was one Of thu
most interesting days in the his
of Roanoke Rapids. No under
taking has ever received such
loyal support from the citizens
of the community as the one
that was launched last week,
that of opening the Nurses
Home on Roanoke Ave. Their
willing response and generous
donations prove that they realize
the value Of the hospital and ap,
preciate the services of the eff
cient doctors and capable nur'
ses.
Under the supervision of Miss
Caroline Moncure, superinten.
dent of the hospital, the home had
been beautifully and artisticalIy
decorated. Promptly at three O.
clock the home was opened by
DR.. T. W. M. Long who deliver
ed very appropriate and inter-
esting address which was enjoy
ed and appreciated by his hear
ers.
Mrs. W. L. Long had provid-
ed various forms of entertain
ment for each half hour from
three O'Clock until eleven. Follow
ing the address the school child
rem in appropriate costumes gave
some very attractive baby folk
dances. From $3.50 to 5 on the
second floor of the home the Ba-
by Show was conducted by Mrs.
J. W. Martin assisted by Miss
Hardaway, resident nurse. Pleas
ing musical numbers, both instru-
mental and vocal were rendered
by our splendid local talent. En-
joyable readings were also given
by local talent. The most inter-
esting feature of the evening
was an old time spelling match.
All the men who took part in
this proved to be very able spell
ers, but Rev. L. N. Taylor re-
ceived the prize, an elephant for
his superior spelling. Some who
had trouble in reading DR.. Longs
prescriptions may have doubted
his ability to spell correctly but
this doubt was cleared for he
proved to be a most efficient
speller
AT the close of the spelling
match strains were heard from
the orchestra and Immediately
the crowd made room for old and
young who wanted to join the
dance.
During the entire program
Mrs. T. W. M. Long was hostess
and saw that the patrons were
properly entertained while Miss
Mckinney delighted every one
with delicious and refreshing
punch. Mrs. Hewitt accommo-
dated them by furnishing excell-
ent home made candies at the
booth.
The event was a decided sue
cess, both from a social and fl
nancial standpoint. DR.. Long at
the close of the evening annon-
ced that more than one thuosand
dollars had been contributed
and on behalf of the nurses he
expressed their thanks and appre-
citation to all who had contributed
towards the success of the day.
The names of the chairmen of
committees and other leaders
were as follows: General chair
man, Mrs. CA. Wyche; dona-
tions, Mrs. S. F. Patterson; tick
cts, Mrs. F. M. Brown; tag day,
Mrs. J. A. Moore; decorating,
Miss Caroline Moncure; hospitali-

Various Causes of Death.

II Is illuminating TO read the causes
of death. In l9l7--a typical year in
which the figures were not complicat-
ed by the war--l4.2 of every thousand
persons In the United States died !;
out of every hundred thousand deaths
ll32 were from Diseases Of the heart.
1893 from pneumonia. 1864 from
tuberculosis, 1914 from kidney trou-
bIes, 1919 from apopIexy. SIG from
cancer. 70 from diarrhoea, 25.3 from
diseases of the arteries. l7.2 from in
-huenza, 1863 from diabetes. I6.5 from
diphtheria, 1863 from bronchitis. 1858
from accidents of all sorts. Arterial
diseases and diabetes show an in
crease that Is really alarming; for in
1900 only 81 per 100000 died of The
former and only OF the latter. These
with those of the heart and Kidneys
are diseases that result directly from
the strain and stress of modern life.

BUFFALO ON THE INCREASE
Is Not Likely to Become Extinct,
at Any Rate.

The fear that existed not long ago
lest the native buffalo would soon be-
come extinct is dispelIed by Il report of
the American Bison society, which
states that there were a,393 wild and
tame buffalo in the United States in
january, 1920. This is an increase of
about 300 per cent since 1908 in which
year there We're 1,116 wild and tame
buffalo in this country.
Of the nine government-owned herds,
two of the largest under the care of the
United States Department of Agricul
ture are located in the Wichita nation
al game preserve, Oklahoma. and on
the national bison range at Dixon,
Mont The herd on the Wichita pre-
serve now numbers 154, including %
calves of this year. In this herd four
bulls and II cows are ten years of age
or over, and one COW is twenty-nine
years old. The - animals that con-
stituted the original Wichita herd came
from the New York geological park.
1t is planned this year to dispose of
9oiuS VI 'he SUI IhuS buhato III tite SoN-
ernment herds in accordance with the
provisions made by the 1919 appropria-
tional bill for their care. Public parks
and municipalities are the largest pa
irons. BY distributing the animals
over the country, il disease or mis-
fortune overtakes the main herds, there
still will be stock left with which
groups could be built up again.

The Sick Miner.

Judge Ebert II. Gary, on his return
from Europe, discussed the English
coal strike at luncheon.
'The men demanded an uncondi-

''but the government couldn't very
well grant them that, because each
former increase had been followed by
decrease Of output. So many miners

enough in three or four days to keep
them all the week.
