CLUB WORK SPURS CAUSE OF
EDUCATION

. The total enrolment in boys and
girls club work in the United States
in 1921, according to recent report
OF the United States Department of
Agriculture received at University
Farm, was 2l6,479. Agricultural col
ieges offered 730 scholarships and con-
Quoted short courses for 1888 boys
and girls. Highly significant of the
manner in which club work stimulates
desire for more instruction is the
fact that more than 1900 former club
members enrolled in 1920 in the four
year course in agriculture or home
economics at various agricultural col
leges.

The list of injured totaled 134 and
IA OF these were recorded as critical

beams, which had been designed to
act as traverse supports for the roof,
scores were taken to hospitals SUI
fering with broken limbs or severe
internal injuries. Many were given
immediate medical attention at i'm
provised stations hastily erected near
the scene of the disaster.
The Official list, according to the
authorities, contained the names Of
all those whose bodies had been re-
covered up to midnight from the
ruins left when the roof of the the
alter, overweighted' with snow, col
1apsed on the audience:
T.: Search Nearly Over.
The volunteer workers, including
police, fremen, marines and cavalry
from Fort Myer, had practically con-
Guided their search of the wreckage
at midnight. The only portion Of
what had been the orchestra remain
ing to be searched was a far corner
in which it was not expected addi-
tlOnal bodies would be found.
The Knickerbocker, one of the new
est and largest of the capitals mo-
ton picture houses, was rated as one
OF the most exclusive, drawing its pa
tronage from the Northwest residen-
tial section in the vicinity of upper
Connecticut avenue.
Family Groups Predominant.
Family groups predominated in the
audience Saturday night and it was
upon these that the roof, backed by
tons Of wet snow, descended with
barely a whispered warning.
The exact number in the theater
when the. steel and concrete span of
the roof buckled and fell under it's
three foot load of snow probably
never will be known The stories of
perhaps a hundred who got out un-
injured have been reported. These
account for a few more than 300 in
the audience that was roaring IN
laughter at screen comedy when the
roof fell on them like blanket, car
rying down the front of the wide bal
cony in it's crash.
Storm Keeps Many Away.
Normally. the theater mas had every
seat filled at that hour and its capac-
ity was nearly 1000 persons. The
same unprecedented. snowfall which
brought death to the venturesome
few, kept the many at home. Street
car traffic had been abandoned and
streets and sidewalks were all but
impossible with drifts.
There has been no time for official
inquiry as to, the cause of the disaster:
The ruins disclose that the entire
mass Of steel-held concrete that
formed the roof came down. The
crash swept the: supports out from
under the balcony, apparently. and
this hinged down at an angle of As
degrees, adding to the tangled mass
of wreckage on the floor below.

UNCLE DUDLEYsS COLUMN

In some. of the large city papers we
note sensational reductions in the re-
tail prices Of dry goods, clothing and
ether articles Of daily use.
This would indicate that some people
have been doing some high profteering
in the past, but are forced to get down
to earth again in order to break the
buying strike that has played havoc
with the big city retail business.
You do not hear Of these stupendous
drops in the country stores, and for the
best of all reasons.
The average country merchant did
not. resort to the constituencies prof
iteeEng methods that were practiced
m some of the larger cities. He raised
his own prices as wholesale prices were
increased and this he was compelled to
do in order to continue BUSINESS
Since the downward trend common
ced, he has been reducing his prices as
rapidly as wholesale rates declined, and
he will continue to do so as long as
there is a falling market.
When you compare the reductions in
the country towns to those in the large
cities just consider both sides of the
question. You may discover that your
home merchant has been fairer to you
right along than any one else.

Washington-An agreement on all
the principles involved in the plan
for return of Shantung province to
China was reached by the Japanese
and Chinese arms delegations.
After the two groups had been in
conference for nearly seven hours,
wrestling with the final problem of
restoring the Tsing-tae-Tsinan-fu
railroad to Chinese control, word
came from the Committee room that
only details of phraseclogy of the
proposed treaty remained in the way
of complete agreement. -
The basis of the settlement is un-
