J. s. HOTEL GIRLS WANT
"MOTHER" RElNSTATED

Curtailment of the suspension
period of Mrs. Jesta M. Richards,
house manager of the KY building,
Government Hotels, is to be asked
today of Secretary of Labor James
j. Davis by girls and women
occupying rooms in the building.
Mrs. Richards several weeks ago
was dismissed for INSTRUMENTATION
by Mrs. s. e. Sumner, general
manager. The Department OF Labor
interviewed, and as result the
house mother" was suspended
until June 1.
A petition drawn up by the occu-
pants of the building is to be pre-
scented to Secretary Davis and the
housing corporation today by Con-
gresham Israel M. Foster, of Ohio.
Congressman Foster last night
criticized the hotel management for
melting out to Mrs. Richards pun
ishment far in excess of that recon-
mended by the Department of Labor.

HORSE IS FOUND
ECONOMICAL
IN TOLEDO
Better for Short HauIs Than
Big Trucks, Many Firms
Discover.
BY international News Service.

by international News service. Fl
TOLEDO, Ohio, April 20-Old Dob
bin is staging the greatest comeback
Toledo horsemen who have studied
Toledo hrosemen who have studied
the problem Of the horses replace
ment for many years. It is declared
that the motor truck, as heavy
hauler, can never replace the horse
on short deliveries. That is the
reason, horsemen say, that big firms
here and elsewhere, that have tried
out the motor truck have returned
to. the use Of the horse for deliveries
within the downtown district.
One big firm, the McGettigan
Brothers Co., that in its palmiest
days never had more than los
horses, now has seventy-five horses
in daily use, an increase of twenty
five from three years ago, and is
planning on putting enough on to
more than exceed the peak horse
population in it's stables.
For Short Hauls.
McGettigans say the return Of the
horse is not only true in Toledo, but
reports from all large cities Of the
country bear out the same conclus-
ion. Big firms using considerable
hauling equipment have found that
for short hauls a team is cheaper at
$1.75 an hour than a motor truck
at So an hour. In the downtown
alleys, where there are unavoidable
delays of several hours due to con.
gestion, it has been pointed out that
the cheaper cost of the horses means
less loss through delay than the
motor trucks.
Even the veteran horsemen admit
that the horse is no competitor of
the motor truck on long deliveries.
But in a radius of forty blocks down
town or even farther the horse is
declared the more economical motive
power.
Only Best Marketable.
The McGettiganS, because of their
established business and due to
the fact that they are the largest
haulers in Toledo, are recognized as
In the last year they have sold more
horses than at any time within the
last twenty years. Only the best of
horses are marketable. Big purch-
asers are paying higher prices than
ever before, but they want the best.
An evidence of the trend back to
the horse is in the fact that three
big. lumber companies here that lost
all their motor delivery equipment
in incendiary fires recently replaced
their equipment with horses through
out.

1000 BABY

CHICAGO. April 2O.-Does the
world love babies?
Is there anything more wonder
full, more alluring, more delightful,
i'm short. is there anything sweeter
than a baby's smile, its dimpled
fingers, its wriggling toes, its tou-
sled head?
There is not, says the world.
There is not, comes the echo from
the thousands of hospitals in the
land.
Hospital Proud of Babies. =
The proudest product of the hos
pital is it's babies. To be sure, it
is proud of its victories it has won
over death; proud of bringing back
to a needy family a wage Garner
who felt the draft of the Great Be-
yond; proud of having sent out into
the world a child with straight,
sturdy legs instead OF crooked,
spindly limbs that threatened it
with life in a wheel chair; proud
of delicate incisions with the knife
which required hands Of iron and
nerves of steel and which made
men, women and children whole
once more; yes, the hospital is
proud of these successes, but it is
proudest Of the thousands of new
beings, new souls, which it ushers
Finto the world.
AS an indication of their pride in
babies are the preparations being
made for National Hospital Day,
May II, when doors of hospitals
viii be thrown open to communities
and their babies.
Plans 1000 Baby Shows.
According to Matthew o. Foley.
executive secretary OF the national
hospital day committee. there will
be more than 1000 baby shows con-

Canada on national hospital day.

and towns the hospitals called in

tanned them, : and then invited
thousands of uncles and aunts and
cousins and friends to come around
and get a real look at the tyne of
better babies that are brought into
the world by hospitals.
From Massachusetts to British
Columbia, from Florida to Sas.
katchewan, baby shows were the
outstanding features of national
hospital day. Their success has
already brought many inquiries to
the national hospital day committee
from other hospitals, while those
cities and towns that held shows
in 1922 have announced that more
elaborate programs will be given
this year and, incidentally, quite a
few more of the latest models of
babies will be shown.

ROMANTIC ROMEO HAULED
. AWAY IN PATROL WAGON

CHICAGO, April 20.-This Romeo
and Juliet business is languishing
In Chicago. Cottage Grove avenue
lost it's Romeo today and he will do
a turn in the workhouse, all because
his Juliet fumbled her lines.
: James Darcy, Of the South Shore
Country Club, fortified with many
yards Of spaghetti and burning with
romance, parked himself under the
home and implored her to drink
to me only with thine eyes," or
something along that line.
This was Mary's cue to appear on
the balcony, attired in a flimsy night
robe, but instead she dropped a
nickel into the telephone box and
requested the nearest police station
to send a garbage cart to collect
her Romeo and his tinkling guitar.
