RED CROSS WINNING
IN FIGHT FOR HEALTH
Better, Stronger Citizenry Now
Emerging Out of Work in
United States.

The American Red Cross as an
evangelist of better health has looked
Its problem squdre in the face. How
1t accepted the task revealed to 1t In
the nations physical condition as
brought out during the World War,
and consclentiously applied It's activi-
ties to correction forms a vivid chap ,
ter In the forthcoming annual report.
Historically and practically, nursing Isl
basic work for the Red Cross. In itsl
public health nursing service, in in
structlon in home hygiene and care Of
the sick, nutrition classes, first aid
and life saving courses and health CEN
ters, the American Red Cross is ap-
plying effectually the lessons learned
during the war and making for q
healthier, stronger and better nour-
ished citizenry.
The task Of the Red Cross Public
Health nurse in the 1,240 nursing serv-
Ices now operating throughout thel
country instructlng their communitiesl
vention is demonstrating the possibili-
ties Of human betterment and the great
benefits Of enlightenment.
During the last year 313 new public
health nursing services were establish
ed by Red Cross Chapters, and several
hundred services SO convincingly prov
ed their effectiveness that they were
taken over by public authorities. In
order to promote this work $50, 900 was
allotted to provide women to prepare
themselves for public nursing. The
home visits made by the 1,240 nurses
aggregated nearly 100000, visits to
schools numbered 100000, and In six
months 1,250,000 school children were
inspected by these nurses and where
defects were found advised examina-
tion by physicians. In rural commu-
mites this service has made q very
marked advance and has won thou
sands of converts to approved methods
Of disease prevention.
In home hygiene and care Of the sick
instruction, which fits the student In
methods Of proper care where illness Is
not SO serious as to require profes-
sional service, the Red Cross conduct
ed 1884 classes during the last year,
enrolled 1856 instructors, 93.448 stu
dents and issued 42658 certificates.
On June 30, 1922, nutrition service
embraced 1,199 classes, with total OF
p, ,523 children and $3.50 enrolled dieti-
tians. Seventy-eight food selection
classes graduated 1888 who received
Red Cross certificates. In general
health activities Red Gross Chapters
maintained 377 health centers, serving
as many communities, provided 3S,751
health lectures for large audiences ev-
erywhere, while clinics numbered over
10000.

PLEASED THE "MONEY BAGS"
European Capitalists Listened With
Pleasure to Accounts of Rookie
feiier's Stupendous Wealth.

During my stay in London l ac-
cepted an invitation to have luncheon
with Lord Rothschild at his Office, John
Hays Hammond writes in Scribner's
1t had been my custom, extending over
a period of many years, to drop In
informally and have luncheon with
the Rothschilds once or twice during
each of my frequent visits to London.
On these occasions always the most
interesting topic of conversation was
my estimate of the wealth of Rookie
feller and other rich Americans. Lord
Rothschild invariably introduced the
subject and forewarned, l was ready
to give him the desired thrill. He
would usually start with some 'piker"
capitalist, whose wealth did not
amount to more than the paltry sum
Of $100,000,000, and then worked up
by queries until he reached the Ameri-
can CrOesus, John ID. Rockefeller 1t
would be an unpatriotic American who
would belittle the wealth of com
patriot at time like this, and after
having modestly admitted, in reply to
Lord RothSchildS question, that RocKe
feller was certainly worth $50O,0O0,-
900, assuming an air of ultra conserva-
tism, l would allow him to eXtort what
was to him delectable fact that Rock
efeller was worth at least $780,
100000; and when the money bags
around the table stared at me with
an expression of pleased surprise,
but not of doubt, would in subdued
tone convey to them the fact that
in informed financial circles of Amer
lea the Rockefellers' wealth was esti-
mated at over $1,000,000,000! The in
ternationalism of the Rothschild fam
lily, and the utter lack of envy, is
evidenced in the unmistakable pleas
ure which characterized the reception
of this titbit of high finance.

will be no check on business. The
farmer will be helped by higher
prices for wheat. Manufacturing
and shipping will become more ac-
tive. The cost of living will go UP.
Money will be firmer and scarcer.
People will sell their foreign secur-
tiles. The stock market, however,
will not permanently suffer. When
the financial history of 1922 is writ
ten, this will be chronicled only as a
break in the bull market More
over, the writer's will add: Con-
sidering the great seriousness of the
Turkish situation. it is most sur
prising that the stock market has
behaved so we'll. Only the fact that
business was not inflated but was
still points below normal saved
the situation. Had the nation in
1922 been enjoying a period of real
prosperity, ther would have been
witnessed a real old-fashioned pam
ic."

BIRDS STILL FAR SUPERIOR
Mans Conquest Of the Air. Seems to
Be Thing of the Far Dis
tant Future.

Aviators fly 1920 miles with two
stops for fuel, and the world applauds
the deed. Other ayiators actually cross
the Atlantlc-at Its narrowest point,
some 1000 miles wide-and the fact
stands still unrivaled by a heavier
than-air machine.
But out ON the Pacific, an albatross
followed a steamer for six days and
seven nights without alighting In
this time, the ship Travelled nearly b.
600 miles, and the bird, with the cir
cllngs, at least as far. Then, with the
nearest land 1900 miles away, the
bird swallowed greedy meal OF food
thrown over for It, turned abruptly
and disappeared.
Human aviation is long, long way
from having achieved that measure OF
endurance. II will cOme--probabiy--
but ii is not even in sight yet. In
speed, the race between man and bird
is close already, and victory In the
end is sure to go to the former. AS
for altitude, the airplane has out
climbed even the condor. But In the
supreme test of endurance, of the abil-
Ity to fly and fiy and keep on hyins'
man is ridlculously Inferior.

ON EQUALITY WITH HUSBANDS
Filipino Women, Entering Into Matrt-
mony, Become Partners In Future
Business Enterprises.

"When a Filipino woman marries
she goes into partnership with her
husband" said Nine. Sofia Reyes de
Veyra, wife Of the Philippine commits
sloner to the United States. "While
the men handle the work and en-
ployees, the women attend to the
finances act as cashiers, pay the work.
ers and oversee much Of the business"
Things are made easy In many
ways for Filipino women, she asserted,
writes Louise Oattoi In the Milwau-
kee Journal. Professional opportun-
tiles are as good for them as for men.
Women are already members Of the
Philippine Bar association, a privilege
not open b. British women.
Married women In the Philippines
hold their property In severalty, and
are guardians of their own children.
OF the property which accrues TO
married couple, the wife is half ad-
ministratrix and there are vested
rights which cannot be taken away.
II is not unusual for the mother Of a
family TO have not only household
leadership, but economic control"
Women's clubs are rapidly growingl
In the islands, Nine. De Veyra said,
and pointed out that already 800
clubs and associations exist, which
have formed a federation

Liberal Eastern Potentate.

The heir to the Ottoman throne,
Abdul Medjid, is something new In
the way Of eastern potentates. Ac-
cording to European papers his life
IN Constantlnople is a model of de-
mocracy. The future Commander of the
Faithful, who is fifty years old, in
tensely enjoys the liberty of which he
was deprived for thirty years by Abdul
Hamid. He is said to divide his ac'
tivities between music, painting, and
writing. His library is stored with
French books. His favorlte writer Is
Anatole France, his favorlte composer
Beethoven. Two interesting signs OF
regeneration of the Ottoman empire
are the facts that Abdul Medjid can
be approached without oriental cere'
mony and that he has suppressed the
harem of the palace.

Largest Crystal.

Some time ago there was found what
was thought to be the largest Of all
crystals-a piece of spodumene 20 feet
In length. Later, however, Professor
Montgomery of Toronto announced
that he had measured in the Eta tin
mine in the Black hills a crystal of
that mineral which was no less than
38 feet six inches in length and 81
inches in thickness. 1t was, he says,
almost perfect In form.
Spodumene is a grayish-white or
mink mineral almost as hard as quartz.
