 In November, 1922, there were bui D ambulance calls, while in the same month in 1928 there were S1 ann bulance calls. Tn November. 1922 the death rate was 1-5 per cent, while in November, 1923, it droppet to 2h per cent.
 Many Improvements.
 The decrease in the death rate is thought to be due to some extent to improved methods of treating pa- tients, modern equipment, and more expert help which is being added gradually right along. New operat- ing room equipment, the adoption of the iletin or insulan treatment for diabetes an increased number of ex- pert nterres and additional nursing staff are said to be among the more important Improvements. Chief among the changes made for the better of hospital force of an expert pathol- ogist and bacterioogist. Edward F.

 Another improvement was the add ing Of several additional instructors and other improvements to the nurses training school. Miss Dcats was made an instructor and assistant to Miss Maude F..

this fixing alone. We've come to
fix for ourselves, and the horde that
follows on Christmas Eve"
+ Wen, at first mother simply wouldn't
hear of it. We were to be company
and just wait till she got the rooms
we were to occupy aired and made up.
Since we were all there, well we must
stay. But we shouldn't drudge. She
guessed we worked hard enough, each
at our own particular kind of work,
all the year, not to have to work when
we came home.
We wouldn't listen. We had come
for one thing. We laughingly over
bore her in all her objections.
More than that, we called father
in from the barn and got him to
bundle mother up and take her off
for a sleigh ride. "A sleigh ride |
Who ever heard of sleigh ride and all
the parlor furniture in the hall wait
ing for the parlor to be cleanedl"
Well, mother heard of q sleigh ride,
and under Just those conditions now.
She heard of it from her two strong
minded daughters, her youngest and
her Oldest. Father caught our spirit
at once and hustled her away. How
merrily the bells jingied as they
whirled away through the snow
Now for It'll Marge and l tucked
up ear skirts, draped ourselves In big
aprons and wound towels about our
heads, and fell to. 1t was hard work,
but what a lark we made of it., And
we had a good supper waiting for
mother and father when they got back.
And every day that week we did
the same. Father whisked mother off
In the sleigh to visit old friends In
nearby towns, or just for the ride.
And while they were gone We
hustled.
BY Christmas Eve the house was as
shining and tidy as 1t would have been
had mother been left to herself with 1t.
And Marge had proved herself mar
velous cook, too. There were pies and
cakes, and even tarts, and the ham
with cloves. The turkey was dressed,
too, and the 'stufing made. And
mother had not SO much as put her
nose into the pantry door.
Then the family arrived. Three
daughters, with their three husbands
and several children apiece, and two
brothers with their wives and Off

them at the door, mothers arm

years, motherl Such bright eyes and
pink cheeks I've never SEEN"
Marge and l, In the darker back
ground, nudged each other and giggled.
All the others cried the same thing.
It was true enough, too. This was
different mother from the rather
weary old woman we were accustomed
to meeting at holidays here In the
open door.
Father spoke up: you're dead
right, children" he said. 'Your mother
looks like this all the year except at
holiday time. Then she just slaves

worn out. This year was different.
This year she went honeymooning

night, over Marge's apple tarts. "But

The reproach In her eyes, though mild
indeed, was for an instant real. Marge

MACHINE is USED BY UNCLE
SAM TO SET OUT HIS TREES
The Device Has a Capacity of About
Fifteen Thousand a Day.

Machines have been devised to do
many things. One OF the most remark
able is used by the United States
Forestry Service, which sets out seed
ling trees ten times as fast as the old
hand planting method Its capacity is
from $4,000 to $4,000 trees day. 1t is
an adaptation of the machine made to
set out tomato and cabbage plants.
Three men and two horses are requir-
ed to operate it at capacity.
In appearance the tree-planter is
something like moving machine. 1t
has a ploughshare arrangement in
front, and at the back of the feeder
are two metal wheels, which push
earth around the tree seeding and
pack it down. Two men seated beside
the driver are kept busy placing the
seedlings in the planting hopper, Two
other hoppers contain water and fer
tilizer that drop the nutriment for the
young trees around their roots just
before the metal wheels fill in the fur
row.
