Her sister Mabel looked up
with a smile and suggested: :.
isn't it bad enough having a
noisy. untidy crowd around you
without having nerves, too?"
'.Well, of all absurd things!"

Mabel. You might think it was
O little unpleasant or wish they'd
change; but If they won't should
think you could save yourself
most of the annoyance by think
ing about the pleasant things the
girls in your office say and do.
There must be something good
TO say for them, or they wouldn't
be holding jobs in an office as
good as yours. I'm sure you are
not the sort of girl who would
work in a second rate office"
Clara smiled.

Michael would not have

two ladies, escorted by two Ameri-

One of them was Valera, dressed
with gay and snowy elegance, as

Against the soft twilight the
cafe windows began to CLEAN with
q reddish glow. One after another,
the large lamps within were light

voluptuous wailings of violins.

rotary Work Says.

Inadequate facilities for educating
members of the coIOred race of the
United States In the medical and
dental sciences, combined with 9
popular indifference toward any ef-
fort to solve the problem. was the
subject OF q formal statement by
Secretary Of the Interior Work To-
day..
Expressing deep concern over the
situation. Secretary Work pointed
out that Howard University, over
which he has supervision, was the
only educational institution, with
one exception. In the country main
tanning q medical school for grad
uating cOlored physicians. dentists
and pharmacists and that the Freed
mems Hospital. also under his direc-
ton. was one where regular
school for training colored nurses
Is maintained.
'sThe result il. there ID 0 de-
plorabIe lack of members Of the
medical and dental professions in
GLIDING trained nurses among the
colored people" he continued. Out
Of the present population q the
United States totaling approximately
106, 900 900, nearly 12,000,000 are
colored. There Is white physician
to. every SOS persons Of the white
race. There is one c0iOred physician
to every 3,194 persons. This means
that the number Of white physicians
is six times greater than the total
colored physicians. The reason for
this is not In the Discrimination OF
colored youths to study medicine
and adopt 1t as a profession but in
the lack of medical schools main
tanned exclusively for their educa-
ton as doctors and surgeons.
Scarcity Of Dentists.
1.-THE disparity IL even greater In
the proportion OF white and colOred
dentists. Statistics show that there
is one white dentist to every 1910
white people in the United States.
while there IL but one colored den.
list to every 10000 c01ored persons.

The employees were descending the

ed the street four men jumped from
the car and overpowered the mes
sengers. One seized the bag. The
bandits then sped away in their
car. The men held up were: f. r.

F. Cohen his assistant.
They were accompanied by John

surprise that none had a chance
to pull their own weapons.

"Of course they refuse to intrude

up to the individual or heads Of

Among the advantages Of a camp
controlled by city camp associa-

be utilized throughout the year as
a sanitorium for the treatment Of
diseases requiring outdoor life for
cure.
According to present plans the

practically all of the available
space taken up. 1t will provide

On the fourth he holed out with
a fifty-foot putt across the green.
At the eleventh he overplayed his
second shot which cost him a five
for the hole. On the sixteenth he
managed to get a par five, after
his second shot was sbunkered. On
the seventeenth hole he dropped a
stroke when he cut his drive into
the rough.
George Duncan, the British
favorite, took "a for the morning
round, bringing his total to 228.
Walter Hagen, the titleholder, got
off to an suspicious start. He
played par golf on the first three
holes, got a birdie four on the
fourth and par three on the fifth.
Kirkwood's amazing morning round
put him in an early lead.
The Australian was remarkably
accurate with his second shots
bringing them to within easy put
ting distance of the cup. He missed
only two puts throughout the morn
ing round, one Of them being ar
easy five.footer.
Hagen completed the round ir

Arthur G. Havers, the young Brit

giving him total score for the sew
enty-two holes of 295.
A terrific wind blowing In from
the Firth of Clyde, displaced the
balmy weather Of the morning and
made afternoon play extremely diff
cult.
Kirkwood's afternoon play was
tragic. Following his record-bre
ing performance of the morning a
large crowd followed the Australian
thinking him one of the probable
winners. He started badly, being
bunkered In three holes of the first
five.
From the seventh to the twelfth,
Kirkwood found" himself, shooting
marvellous golf, making brides on
the seventh, tenth and eleventh. and
requiring only sixteen strokes to hole
out.
But the final six holes were a
nightmare to Kirkwood. On the ill.,
teenth he was bunkered and was
forced to take six. Disaster followed
on the sixteenth, where he drove his
approach shot in a brook, necessi-
tating g. seven.
