WASHINGTON, April 20.-The
United States bureau of the CEN
suS is waging campaign to bring
every State in the Union into the
birth and death registration area
before 1890
The resignation area is slowly
growing, with some expansion in
1927, but Federal health officials
feel that it is extremely important
for the country'S warfare against
disease that accurate information
concerning the birth and death rec
ords of the entire nation be avail
able to psychologists and health
workers.
The birth registration area at
present covers forty States and the
District of Columbia, which takes
in 1878 per cent of the total popu-
lation Of the country. In the death
registration area are forty States.
the District of Columbia and twen-
ty-one cities in non-regiStration
States of the death registration
area. This gives information on the
cause of 91.3 per cent of the popula-
ton of the United States.

SURVEYS NEGRO
HOSPITAL NEEDS
IN INDIANAPOLIS
Study by Dr.. w. H. Walsh
Is Ordered by Council
of Social Agencies.

Survey of the disqualification
needs of the Negro population of
Indianapolis with the view of rec
ommending a separate Negro unit
and nurses training school at city
hospital is being made under aus
pieces of the Indianapolis Council
of Social Agencies.
No steps to persuade the city
health board to establish the sep
arate training school and ward at
the city hospital will be taken until
DR.. William H. Walsh, former Amer
lean Hospital Association secretary,
completes his study OF the general
hospital needs of the city.
DR.. Walsh begun his study of the
Negro population needs here last
November and was later employed
by the indianapolis Foundation to
prepare a general report on hospi-
taIization
Indianapolis is about up to the
standard requirements for hospital
capacity for city of its size, Eu-
gene c. Foster, indianapolis Foun-
dation director, believes.
Our facilities are somewhat taxed
by the fact that the State is under
hospitalized and many out-State
patients are brought here for treat
ment, Foster declared.
The additional unit contemplated
at city hospital in the S1,750,000
building program before the new
city council, is expected partially to
relieve the congestion. The council
is understood to be friendly to the
program. Council President Edward
B. Raub ST.. said a joint meeting of
the health and finance committees
probably will be held before the next
meeting in May.
Request of the Keys sanatorium,
Negro hospital, for funds to con-
tinue the private sanatorium, led
the Council of Social Agencies to
order the survey
The committee headed by Foster
felt that there should be additional
hospital facilities for Negroes, in
proportion to population, and asked
Or. Walsh to make the study.
Either private funds or city ap-
preparation would be necessary be-
fore the project could be under
taken.
The committee: Rev. H. L. Her
rod, of Flanner House; Dr. Ernest
N. Evans, indianapolis Church Fed
Grafton secretary; Miss Mary A.
Meyers, Marion County tuberculosis
Association secretary; Miss Edna
Hamilton, Public Health Nursing
Association director; DR.. Herman G..
Morgan, city health board secretary;
DR.. William p. Doeppers, city hos
pital superintendent; DR.. E. E. Pad
gett, health board president; DR..

secretary, and F. B. Ransom, Negro

That Hoover's candidacy is a
genuine threat to Senator James
E. Watson's effort to capture the
Indiana delegation to the national
convention was borne out in r.

THE attempt to show that
Hoover ever did anything to injure
the farmer is rather funny, in view
of the fact that in 1919 he fought
the European governments blind to
prevent a farm panic in the
United States and got away with
it.

A distinguished Frenchwoman point
ed out the other day that the very
women who scoff at modern fashions
and stoutly refuse to have aught to do
with them are in reality more slaves
to fashion than any one else. Because
instead of conforming to the fashions
of 1928, which are the easiest things In
the world to obtain, they cling to the
fashions of 1920 or 1908 or some other
bygone year.
The woman who wears her hair in
a pompadour instead of in a bob or
drawn over her head in simple, fairly
close couture Is not sidestepping fash
ion, she Is only sidestepping current
fashion. And so is the woman who
wears her skirts long when others wear
them short. or short when others wear
them long-and the woman who doesn't
wear stir corsets when other women
do, and does wear them when other
women don't.
These purposely and persistently
out-of-date women usually give rather
more thought TO their dress than the
woman who follows the mode in the
same way that she reads the worth
while new books and sees the plays
that other people are talking about.
To cling to an old fashion just be-
cause you found 1t more becoming when
you we're young or consider it more
feminine or more 1dignif1ed than the
preseut-day clothes Is as thanklese a
performance as wearing sad smile all
your life because Of a blighted romance
when you were 20. The world ways on

you have. no pears in the house you
may buy two or three specially nice
ones. Fruit should be washed before
it is put in the lunch basket, as few
children would think of this precaution.

veniently without knife should be Sc

for the school lunch. but ripe apples.
pears, grapes, bananas are good Sc

Friday-Swiss cheese and rye bread

Plan to buy the rye bread and swiss
cheese Thursday. so that you will have
it on hand for school lunches as well as
the lunch at home. Do not use mustard
on the school sandwiches, as 1t soaks In
the bread when the sandwiches are
made some time before they are to be
eaten
In most schools it is possible for chill
dren to arrange to have small bottle
of milk delivered for lunch time. When
this is not possible you may want to
provide some beverage Hot cocoa may
be taken every day with benefit If 1t is
made rather weak and not very sweet.
A level teaspoon of sugar for cup Of
cocoa is enough.
MY own experience has been that
children would much rather have simple
lunches, consisting of easily eaten sand
witches. to more deliberately prepared
dishes that may cause comment from
the other children. please don't give
me anything squashy," one 9-yearA old
boy cautioned his mother. adding that
some of the boys threw half their
lunches away because they were usually
pretty badly mashed by the time, re-
cess came. Fruit should be ripe and
mellow but not so scft'that 1t will mash
in the lunch box.

It's Time to Plan
Christmas Gifts

Don't forget that in few weeks
you are going to be confronted by
signs and notices reminding you to do
your Christmas shopping early.
Perhaps you have already done some
of it. At all events, If you do much

about It, So sit right down today and
make a list of all the persons to whom
you usually give gifts. and then begin
to fill in the list with possible things to
give them.
1t is early enough so that you can
plan to make many gifts, If you wish
to- You can, of course, give more
valuable things in this way. for your
work makes the materials you use in

So If you have more time than money
and know how to use your fingers
deftly. by all means make gifts for

In some households the making If
school lunches is always an afterthoughJ
and no special plans are made in tlie
ordering for the midday snack that
children have to carry away with them.
The whole business becomes much easier
II in planning the regular meals at
this time of the year you also lot down
few reminders concerning the school
lunches. And have found by expert
ence that an excellent place to prepare
them is the breakfast table.
1t is task that usually falls to the
lot Of the housewife. because only the
exceptional maid likes to take on this
added duty. If you have no maid you
will also find it most convenient plan.
Required slices of bread. sandwich filling
and other things planned for the little
meal may be put at the housewives
place. where she can conveniently spread
the bread, make the sandwiches and
wrap them in waxed paper while she
sits waiting for members of the family
to assemble or lingering little while
afterward.
/ am suggesting suitable and no.
diffieult set of school lunches that might
be planned around the menus arranged
for this week.
For Monday-Hard cooked egg sand
wiches, raw apple ginger cookies.
The eggs should be put on to cook
10 or Is minutes in advance of the
soft-boiled eggs to be served at break
fast. because hard cooked eggs are more
easily digested II very thoroughly
cooked It is a convenience to use
patent egg slicer. but If you do not
possess one Of these slice the eggs rather
thin with silver knife and lay them
between slices of buttered white or
whole wheat bread. Or chop the egg
finely with silver knife and spread
this between the slices.
For Tuesday-Celery. cream cheese
and Jelly sandwiches, banana.
Remember to save few choice pieces
Of celery from Mondays dinner for the

lightly and on one-half spread cream
cheese and the other little grape
