THE FAMILY MEDICINE CHEST

In every household a small cup
board is needed for medical and sur
gical supplies. Glass shelves are de-
sirable, because they show when
dirty and are easily cleaned. but a
wooden cupboard can easily be iinsd
with clean paper or white, enamel
cloth held in place by thumb tacEs'
Dirty, stained shelves should not Be
tolerated. The cupboard should be
kept locked and the key put we'll out
of the reach OF Children. In the cup
board should be kept medicines IN
daily use; they should not be paraded
on family dinner tables.
Poisonous drugs should have rough
glass bottles and conspicuous labels.
All medicine bottles should be kept
we'll corked since evaporation may
take place and the remaining solu-
ton, by becoming stronger, may be

A MEDAL FOR AMERICAN

In recognition of the work done for
the children Of Belgium in the year
following the signing of the arms
tice, the Belgian government has
awarded medal to the Junior Am
erican Red Cross which has just been
received and is now on display in the
museum at Red Cross National Head
quarters, Washington.
The medal is in the form of pla-
quette which was designed by the
sculptor Rosseau and was issued by
the Commute National during the war
On the face of the plaquette, in high
relief is the figure of a mother bring
ing her child to the doctor q Con-
sultation DIES NourriSsons, where she
received medical advice and proper
food. The Comitc National was head
ed by Mr.. Herbert Hoover and the
school canteens and other activities
of the Junior Red Cross were carried
on in cooperation with that committee.
The work of its child section, Aide ct

was recognized as being so essential
to Belgium that the government made
it an official organization. L'Ocuvrc

Almost every family needs to Keep

families have certain other needs Pc
culiar to themselves and for those
who live at distance from drug
stores a greater quantity ana var
ietv may be required, but elaborate
equipment and extensive supplies o.
medicines are neither economical ilol
necessary for household use.
Castor oil, Rochelle or other laXa-
tive salts and two grain cascara
tablets ordinarily constitute sut1lc-
lent supply of cathartics for family
use. A small bottle of tincture OF
iodine and one of. 10 per cent alcohol
should be kept for disinfectlmg'
Nci.hcr one is for internal use. the
iodine is used to dislnfcct small
wounds and abrasions Of the SKIN IL
should be applied with cotton swaps
and several swabs should be maue
and kept on hand in an envelope or
box. Alcohol is used to dislntcct
thermometers and other instruments
that can net be boiled, for rubbing
and for disinfecting the skin. A ~
per cent solution is sometimes used
for rubbing but need not be bought
until it is needed. Dena,urcd and
wood alcohol are poisons and should
be used in households only IN spirit

The dose is one half to one teaspoon

good stimulants, but they take some
time to prepare. Household ammonia
must not be used as a substitute for
aromatic.
Olive oil, mustard and baking soda
may be brought from the kitchen

GOVERNOR TRINKLE'S
ADDRESS

Governor Trinkle's address
last week before the joint SEES
sion Of the General Assembly OF
Virginia, evinces a careful and
painstaking study Of the ques-
ton of a bond issue for general
road Improvement of the state.
His analysis of the financial sit
uation in its relation to the bond
issue seems to us clear and con-
vincing. He stated the questions
to be considered were, as to
whether the people wanted roads
to meet the demands Of the times !;
and if SO, whether they wanted
them built quickly or slowly.
If the voice of the people could
be heard today, with roads every
where hub-deep in mud and many
absolutely impossible, we doubt
not it would reach the capitol at
Richmond with an angry roar that
would sweep all opposition be-
fore it and drown the dissenting
voices OF the querulous pessinl-
lists who are always on hand to
obstruct legislation for the bet
terment of the commonwealth
and the welfare Of its people.

full career. 1t seemed to them that
the destiny of Esther and her people
in the realm of Persia was typical Of
those events that befell the Jews in
all other periods AS they were saved
then, so they would be rescued in all
times Of peril. Hence they confidently
trusted in the God of their fathers
who was the rock Of their refuge
whenever men rose up against them.
Under His guidance they have waged
an age-long combat against error and
malice to the end that persecution and
injustice might everywhere be up
rooted Linked with this faith was the
hope that here on earth, the footstool
of God, men and women from all
countries and nations would pay
homage to God alone as their sole
Ruler.
Purim has always been the occasion
for mirthful celebrations in Jewish
/ families and social groups. However
unhappy the lot of the Jew, Purim has
been made a season of merriment.
While the synagogue echoes the un.
doing of Haman and the triumph OF
Mordecai, Jewish social centers and
homes are the scenes of activities and
entertainment in which men, women

WAY DOWN EAST
AH-Star Cast in Heart Story, to Be
ShoWn Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday. Nev York Audiences
Arose and Cheered to a Man.

When "Way Down East" appeared
in New York, it met with reception
the enthusiasm of which has seldom
been equalled by any production ever
staged. The papers recorded the tire
mendous ovation given it, and were
unanimous in their own praise. The
Neqo York Herald said, "The patrons
shrieked and roared. They had wit
messed the most sensational photo
play climax that ever aroused a cata-
ract of emotions. Enough to raise
the hair on a mans head and raise
the man out of his seat" The Amerl-
can said, "One can not enumerate
the multitude IF virtues in the film"
The Evening Mail said, "The theater
resounded to cheers, whistles and
yells of delight. Pandemonium broke
loose"
The Ncw York Sam said, "The au-
dience cheered the sensational
scenes The Tribune said, "When
the stupendous ice scenes were shown
the theater rocked with applause"
The World declared, at had the
spectators standing and cheering. AS
many generations of the future will
be charmed and thrilled by the shadow
show as have wept, applauded and
chuckled over the stage play" The
Times said, "The audience sat in rap
ture to watch its unfolding. Of the
hubbub which followed the ice-jam
scenes at the end, any audience would
have cheered-and all audiences will"
Where the comment of the press is
so unanimously in favor Of play,
there must be merit far beyond the
ordinary. Clergymen, artists, and
in fact all of taste and judg-
mcnt join in the chorus of praise.
For instance, Howard Chandler
Christy says: ~ take this opportu-
nifty to congratulate you on the finest
motion picture I've ever Scent" And
so it goes The galleries are as wild
in their applause as the boxes and
orchestra chairs. 1t appeals to the
classes and the masses as few plays
have ever done. John Barrymore
says in letter to Mr.. Griffith, the
producer, speaking of the acting OF
the star, Miss Gish: 81 merely wish
to tell you that her performance in
Way Down East seems to me to be
the most superlat;vely exquisite and
poignantly enchanting thing have
ever seen in my life" The players
in the picture seem to be all specially
chosen for their parts. 1t is justly
called an all-star cast. AS for the
story itself, it would be impossible tc
adequately abbreviate it. 1t took ter
months to prepare it, and an infinite
amount of labor on the part of hun
bred talented people. ! is the
greatest thing that has ever come te
Alexandria. and to miss it is to miss
the treat Of a lifetime.
