EPERNAY, France.-The cham
pagne appetite throughout the world
has diminished so greatly in 1927. es-
pecially in France. that shippers Of
this region have become alarmed.
They are planning an intensive cam.
paign to advertise the bubbling vim.
tage in 1928, in conjunction with a
reduction of prices.
The diminution in domestic ship
ments for the first six months Of the
year was nearly IS per cent. and the
total diminution on domestic and for
eign shipments was 4S per cent under
the figures for the similar period
last year.
Hard times in the champagne-con-
suming countries and high prices are
blamed largely for the diminution in
purchases. But there are other con-
tributing reasons, say some dealers,
who point out. that the sale of all
kinds of wine in France has drop
ped considerably in the last year or
so. while that of beer and cider and
other inexpensive drinks of the "bub-
bly," variety has increased. Beer, par
ticularly. has gained enormously in
public favor.

TSINNAN, China.-Dressed in their
best. Chinese mothers flock to the
Better Babies Clinic Of the Y. w.
c. A. in Tsinnan, plainly showing
that they regard 1t as a highly i'm
portant occasion. 1.-THE mothers are
eager to bring their children regu.
larly and have the doctor assure them
that they are in good health" says
Miss Ruth Hoople Of Brooklyn, N. Y,
who is in charge.
"They prefer this rather than wait
for them to become i'll. The exam.
nations over, our clinic afternoon be-
comes a social occasion. Mothers
drink tea and compare one another's
children"
Health is given an important role
in educational work among the
Chinese children as we'll as adults,
and they are taught that germs and
dirt are the foes to combat. In a
recent playlet the children were given
fly swatters to chase other children
dressed as black imps away from food
and out Of the house.
Miss Hoople has been in China
since 1917.

ego on that subject. Remarks attribu-
ted to him in that connection in GER
tain press reports were denied by the
general and President Coolidge was
represented as regarding the incident
closed.
In summarizing Army conditions In
his report Gen. Summerall said there
had been gradual progress toward
the attainment of desired peace-time
effectiveness" He commented briefly,
however, on the promotion stagnation
situation which leaves junior officers
faced with the prospect of almost
indefinite service, with little If any
promotion" adding the hope that
studies under way would aid Congress
in solving the problem.
Since he came to Washington Gen.
Summerall has busted himself with
makeshift plans to get the troops in
better quarters this Winter. indicating
slowness with which permanent hous-
ing programs can be carried out. De-
tachments have been shifted about al
most regardless Of military require
ments for the sake Of getting the men
under waterproof roofs at least, yet
his annual report ignores that subject
entirely, just as it shows no mention
of the reserve ammunition deficits,
personnel shortages or any other Of
the so-called major projects" of the
Army that all involved increased ap-
proDriations If they are to be dealt
with.
In the Regular service, the report
found cause for congratulation on de-
creasing desertion and increasing re-
enlistment statistics. due largely. Gen.
Summerall believed, to the presiden.
tial order increasing the ration allow
ance to so cents.
This measure. without question, is
one of the most important enacted on
behalf of the enlisted man since the
World War;" he said.
