Greece Appreciates
American Help at Smyrna

Athens, Greece, Oct 24.-The help
full part played by American warships
in succoring the victims Of the burn
ing Of Smyrna by the Turks, has been
favorably commented upon by Greek
newspapers. The following extracts
are taken from papers published in
Athens:
From the Daily Skrip: while the
fleets of powerful Europe stood silent
before the butchery of Christians,
America did all she could to save
whatever was to be saved from de
struction. Never before did the
strength of the great American peo-
pie manifest itself in more benevo-
lent way"
From the Kathimerine: LAS soon
as they landed in Piraeus, the poor
Smyrna refugees knelt down and
said: God bless America and her cit.
izens.' Along with these refugees
the whole Of Greece is grateful to
America. During the terrible trag
edy Of Asia Minor, the only saviours
of the innocent were the Americans"
From the Nea Himera: "The
Inonean refugees are full of emo
tion when they speak of the heroism
of the American sailors. While the
sailors of Europe's warships stood
idly by watching a spectacle taken
from Dante's Inferno, the American
sailors showed all the nobility of their
nature and all that is best in human
character. They did what they could,
these Americans. Revolvers in hand
they made superhuman efforts to
snatch from the Turkish beasts their
helpless prey. They chiefly protect
ed the women and children"

Swedish Officials Declare
Business 10 Good

Stockholm, October 23.--The most
since the war has just been issued by
optimistic official quarterly report
since the war has just been issued by
the Swedish Foreign Office, ard along
these same hopeful lines the Swedish
Board Of Trade has declared that "the
present indstrial and financial situ.
alton points to the beginning Of new
business cycle"
The foreign Office report, as usual
constitutes a conservative appraisal
Of the situation as whole. 1t says
that the spring and summer of this
year have witnessed a marked inn.
provement in the wood products, pulp
and paper trades, while the iron and
mechanical industries are movina
very slowly out of the depression
The textile industry is working up to
full capacity, and the chemical fac
tories are steadily increasing produc-
ton. During 1922 prices have in gen.
eral been practically stabilized, but
the tone is firm, and there seems to
be slight upward trend in some Of
the basic industries.
With regard to internal money and
banking conditions the undertone is
now confident, and the Importance
and strength of the three large
Stockholm banking houses in which
Sweden's banking system is mainly
concentrated is now the same as be.
fore the war crisis.
Foreign trade shows strong activ-
ity. Thus the total exports of lum-
Der will reach 100000 standards
which represents the prewar level
before the end of the year.
The increasing trade with the Unit
cd States is hailed with satisfaction
especially as new lines of export have
recently been added to the staple COM
modities. Large shipments of Swed-
ish cement have been going to the
United States for several weeks and
a high quality of salted mackerel has
also begun to move in the same direc-
ton.

Pittsburgh's War Memorial
A Useful Highway

Pittsburgh, Oct. 2l.-Pittsburgb
has officially dedicaed a $4,000, 600
memorial to its sons and daughters
who served in the world war.
The memorial is municipal high
way called The Boulevard of the AL
les. 1t extends from the business
section TO the Oakland district, ap
proximately two miles.
When city officials discussed ideas
for suitable memorial, public opin-
ion wa. accepted as favoring a gen.
erous appropriation for any monu-
rient which might perform valuable
public service, and in this way per-
petuate the effort Of Pittsburgh's
service men and women.
At the time the city faced a serious
problem. A tremendous amount of
automobile traffic between the resi-
Dental sections and the business dis
trict was compelled to use a single
boulevard.
Insistent demand for a second ar
terry of travel, punctuated by hun
dreds of accidents-minor and fatal
caused the city concil to decide upon
the boulevard memorial.
The highway, built chiefly of con-
crete, is 40 feet wide. Construction
was begun in September, 1921. Start
ing at Grant street and Second ave-
rue, the boulevard stretches up hill
to the Bluff and follows the Bluff to
Forbes street and Craft avenue. An
extensive system of retaining wal
construction was necessary.
There are no streets crossing the
Boulevard proper, and officials expec,
that early morning and late afternoon
traffic problems in the downtown sec.
tions, i'll be eased considerably.
Last month 80 persons were killec
ir traffic accidents in Pittsburgh anc
the fatality record during the sum
mer averaged 25 per cent.

conservatory of music. The Kapella
has beer created since the revolution,
and has not yet been heard out of
Russia. CChapin formerly sang with
the Kapella as soloist.

Naval Fuel Problem in Japan

Toxic, Oct. 24.-With all the dras.
tic military and naval reductions that
may be realized, the question of ma
val fuel pending before the govern
ment will remain as far from solu-
ton as before, states an authority.
The government long has been striv.
ing for the realization of self-sufi-
cheney, but what with the gradual
diminishment of the annual output in
his country and with the waning
prospects of the oil possibilities now
nder experimental exploitation, the
government will for a long time yet
have to cling to the old policy of
boarding imported oil, this authority
said.
The domestic output amounted
some years ago to about $50 900 tons
oer annum, but the amount has drop
1ed to less than 100000 tons. So
considerable a portion Of this output
is refined into lighting oil that very
little fuel can be obtained out Of this
limited domestic product. The re-
oeated experimental boring in the oil
fields in Formosa has completely fail
I'd and the similar attempt In Sag
halien has so far been attended with
10 more reassuring result. Under
'hese circumstances the government
has decided to employ several addi-
';onal special service vessels for the
import of fuel oil, mostly from. Bor-
7eo. The import from America this
ear amounts already to 100000 tons
md from Borneo to 0,000 tons.

MARYLAND HELPING
COMMODITY DAY
ALL SECTIONS OF STATE GIVING
CANNED GOODS AND
DRIED FRUITS
NEED GREAT QUANTITY

As result Of the appeal which was
made to the city Of Baltimore for food
stuffs to help fill the Food Ship ALA
quash' sailing from Philadelphia to
Batoum, splendid start was made
Hundreds of cases of prunes, raisins,
corn-beef, salmon, soup, condensed
milk, syrup, chocolate and cocoa, pre-
serves, and jams, also soaps were
sent. Sacks of sugar, -four, beans,
seed wheat and seed corn helped to
swell the cargo
The need was only partly met. The
appeal is now spreading throughout
the State. Hagerstown and Freder-
lex have used the public schools as
did Baltimore for collecting points.
Every school child was asked to bring
on certain day some OF the de-
sired articles.
The Boy Scouts collected the ma.
terials and put them in packing
cases,
In Kent County through the efforts
OF Mrs. Evelyn Harris certain gar
ages and stores were used as col
lecting points. where farmers brought
all sorts Of clothing and shoes, gar.
den seed and commodities. These
were gathered together by Gladdens
Express and brought to Baltimore to
be included in the ship-load.
Churches are now planning to have
a white gift service. the results to be
sent on the next ship sailing about
the 10th Of January. Gather togeth-
er your clothing now. Order from
your local grocer now. Delve into
your pantries. search your ware

face starvation, 100000 Of whom are
orphans. Notify the State Director at

SHELLS FOR WINDOW PANEs
Effectively Employed in the Philippines,
and Might Be Made Useful in
This Country.

The placenta shell, found in abund-
ance in the southern Philippine
islands, offers a unique, practical and
decorative resource in home adorn-
ment, says Good Furniture Magazine.
Being fairly nat and roughly cir
cular, translucent and up to three
inches in diameter and about one
sixteenth inch thick, the placenta shell
serves the better class of Filipino
house in place of glass. The strong
tropical light is pleasingly modified
as it passes through the shell-panes
held together by wooden strips or
lead bands.
Decoratively, the shell should find
many uses. 1t is already being worked
up by the Filipinos, under American
direction, into lamp-shade frames in
most pleasing shapes
1t seems that it might find a limited
application In furniture as in cabinet
door inserts or medallions in panels
in wood or metal screens where the
vision but not the light is to be barred
But the greatest use of this curl
Ously beautiful shell would seem to
lie in the domain Of the lighting fix
ture and lamp industry, where effects
can be produced by transmitted light

FAIR HAIR ON THE DECREASE
Scientific Reason Alleged Is That
Blondes Are Less Resistant Than
Their Darker Brothers.

Scientists tell us that blonde hair is
dying out, the reason being that
blondes, being less resistant, die SOON
er than brown-haired persons. The
cities, too, show a smaller proportion
Of light-haired and light-eyed persons
than the country. Variety Of colors in
the hair Of a population is d sure sign
of civilization and culture. This yari-
ETY. is never found in pure races, like
indians, Africans, negroes and the ASH
atics. The Maltese and the Hebrews
have the largest proportion of brown
haired people, and the Danes the
smallest. But the Danes make up for
it by having the largest percentage Of
blondes. When the hair comes down
close on the forehead, forming a peak,
that is Il sign Of d strong constitution
and a l0ng-lived ancestry. The man is
also credited with having a short,
sharp temper, great honesty Of pur-
pose, excellent observation. and perse-
verance. Stiff derby and opera hats
are responsible for much Of the bald
ness found among young men in large
cities. The unyielding rims of these
hats interfere with the circulation in
those veins which return the blood
from the scalp.
