By unanimous vote the Rotary Club

In outlining the report Of the COM
mittee chosen to decide upon a suit

detailed the great need this institu-
tion had of assistance.
Mr.. Sharp said that last year ap-
proximately $1,000 was expended to
stage the Christmas party, which
proved of no lasting benefit t. Cbe
young guests. but that such dona-
ton to an institution OF mercy would
be lasting.
Included in Mr.. Sharp's estimate of
tie amount expended by the club was
the value Of goods and foodstuffs do
mated by the various members. and IN
consequence the amount to be given

that IL Will reach figure as large

Will Cooperate With U. s. Of

OTTAWA, Ont, June 26.-Can.
ada, within the next two weeks, will
enter into negotiations with the
United States to consider the possi-
billy Of cooperating to check rum
smuggling over the border, 1t was
learned today from an official
source.
Premier Mackenzie King admitted
that the Canadian government had
received a communication from
Washington asking II 1t was possible
for the Dominion to assist in pre-
venting export OF liquor into the
United States from Canada.
Ottawa's reply consisted mainly
OF a statement Of the Canadian law
as 1t exists at present touching such
an issue. There was no intimation
as to the policy the government
will adopt in the future.
I'VE have every desire to cooper
ate with the American authorities,
as we would hope to have them CO.
operate with us in securing observ-
ance OF our own laws" Premier King
said.
Washington was informed that, as
soon as the present session Of Par
lament ends the Canadian govern
1nent would be glad to receive Amer
lean officials in Ottawa for a discus
sion OF the American request. Par
lament Is expected to adjourn about
the first week in July.

New Attempts for Altitude Rec

Copyright. 1928. by Cosmopolitan
News service.)

DAYTON, Ohio, June 26.-Before
snow flies an effort will be made
at McCook Field, it was learned to-
day, to touch the ceiling of the
world by airplane An altitude
flight will be made in expectation of
reaching at least $4,000 feet. nearly
ten miles up. and possibly 10000
feet.
The present worlds altitude record,
established by Lieut.. John A. Mac
Ready, the highest flier of them
ALL" on September 90, 1921. is AZ, 800
feet. That was the highest point to
which MdcReady could force his
Lepere plane to go. Try as he
would. he could not gain an inch.
The atmosphere was too thin.
But having since had more expert
ence with oxygen tanks, a Moss
supercharger and other essentials to
the operation of an airplane engine
in the frozen realms above the earth,
1t is believed that MacReady will be
able to beat his previous record.
AS soon az Lieut.. r. L. Vaughan
makes his sunrise to sunset flight

The ceiling for the Curtiss plane
may be $4,000 feet. 1t may be
$4,000 feet; no one knows but the
Air Service proposes to find out
and at the same time subject a new
built Moss supercharger to a rigid
test. The supercharger, an APP
pliance developed since the war,
is a delicate piece of mechanism
attached to the motor which makes
flying in thin" atmosphere pos
sible. Its construction is regarded
as d military secret.
Exploration OF the regions far
above the earth's surface is ex-
pected to reveal information of

mendous aid in flying across the
continent, either by fighting or

demonstrated during the war that
the airplanes which went the

over adversaries. The Moss super
charger. it is claimed, will help make
American aviators supreme.

JOFFRE IN HORIZON BLUE;
GIVES UP RED TROUSERS

PARIS, June 26.-Marshal Joffre,
four and a half years after the end
of the world war. recently for the
first time donned the familiar "hori-
zon blue adopted for the infantry
after it's first defeats in 1914, which
we're attributed to the conspicuous
red trousers then worn.
Joffre stuck to the red trousers
and dark blue jacket. He is very
uncommunicative, and no one knows
just why he waited until now to
discard them. Intimate friends gave
as the reason why he refrained from
wearing the horizon blue during the
war because he felt it would have
smacked Of a.ffectation for the head
of the army to change the habitual
color of his uniform to that worn
by the rank and file which was
doing the fighting and making the
horizon blue popular.

WOMEN To TAKE
MEN SPLACES,
SHE SAYS
Mrs. Alice MacDougaIl Sees
Stern Sex SuppIanted in
Business World.

NEW YORK, June 26.-The "age
of women" is here, and In some
thing less than a century all busi.
ness will be done by women, Mrs.
Alice Foote MacDougall, prominent
in business and feminine activities,
said today.
"If the percentages stated in the
1920 census are correct" explained
Mrs. MacDougall, 'in less than 100
years most, if not all, of the bust
ness of this country will be done by
women. Since 1880 the percentage
of women engaged in business has
increased from 14.7 to 21.1, while
during the same period the percent
age of men engaged shows a de-
crease Of 5 per cent. Taking the
annual average increase. in about q
century all women will be gainfully
employed.
II don't pretend to predict what
the men will do. Someone has to
do the housekeeping, suppose. and
If women are otherwise engaged,
the men will have to do 1t. Prob
ably by that time, though. inventors
will have relieved humanity OF the
drudgery of housekeeping by devils
ing machinery for dishwashing and
bedmaking. This would make it
pretty easy for the men.
Naturally, by that time. the po-
litical situation will be controlled
by women, too, and 1 don't quite
see any business women authorizing
a trial trip of the newest 1923 trans
Atlantic air liner for 900 of her
friends. For one thing, 800 women,
without the leavening influence of a
proportionate number OF men, could
not take such a trip. BY the end
Of the third day the ship would not
hold them"

During recent MONTHS there has

Of the royal family were present. s
The issue was laid before the con.

which placed upon the agenda a
resolution that 1.-THE royal family
is no longer necessary as part Of

party is asked, therefore, to state
