rather diminutive apprentice Of the
local dairyman, and after a friendly
remark or two said casually:
Tell me, does your employer ever
put anything into his milk before
he sells 1t to his customers?"
He always does replied the boy,
with a grin.
The inspector smacked his lips
approvingly. From an inside pocket
he produced q bulky notebook.
What does he put in the milk? 2"
The small boy considered the

STILL REJECT OBATA.

Marking Toxic Relations Tense Over
appointment Of Minister.
TOXIC, December ~ (R).-Diplomatic
violations of Nationalist China and the
japanese government became increas-
ingAy strained today as the Marking
government persisted in its refusal to
accepe Torikichi Obata as Minister from
Japan
Obata is former Ambassador to Tur-
key. Markings objection to him is
that he was Japanese charge d'affaires
in Peking at the time of the famous
81 demands ON the Peking government
in 1915.
The Tokio government, it was learned
officially, has determined not to with
draw his nomination, considering IL a
vital test of SAno-Japanese relation.
Marking has been asked to reconsioIer
its. decision, with consideration to DOS
sible serious consequences arising from
further rejection of Obata.
To the Marking objections the Toxic
government has replied. that the Chinese
public accepted him as Minister in
1918-lS22. During the last year he
negotiated the Shantung settlement re-
storing the Shantung Railway at Kia-
chow, Shensi province, to China. ObaLa
was decorated by the Chinese govern
menb for his, services.
1t was admitted at the foreign office
that persistent refusal by the Chinest.
to. accept Obata nigh lead to Tokio's
asking Marking to recall Mang Yung
Pao. its minister to Toxic.

GNY|NVF memorial
WILL Be UNVEILED
Ceremonies Will Be Held at
ChiIdren'S Hospital at
Noon Tomorrow.

Marking the acquisition of the first
100000 for endowment of the child
welfare department of Children's Hos
pital, the Mary Gwynne memorial, a
marble plaque framed in. bronze, will
be unveiled at the Childrens Hospital
tomorrow at IL o'clock noon Mrs
Frank B. Noyes, honorary president of
the board of directors of the child well
fare department, will unveil the plaque
and Mrs. Frederick Foust, the new
president, will preside. Mrs. Lewis
Lehr, immediate past president. under
whose regime a large portion of the
100000 was raised, is out of the city
and will not be present.
The tablet is erected to the memory
of Mrs. Mary Gwynne, who started
child welfare work in Washington and
who was sponsor of the plan for its
endowment. At the time this endow-
ment was started several years ago the
plan was to raise only 100000, which,
it was then calculated would put this
department on self-supporting basis.
Officials Of the Childrens Hospital,
however, decided to place all cases for
the prevention of disease in this depart
ment, and this action, coupled with a
faster increase in child welfare cases
than had been anticipated, entailed the
outlay of more money than the interest
from 100000 would provide. There
was deficit of about $4,000 the cur
rent year, which was made up by funds
from the Community Chest, of which
the Children'S Hospital is a. member.
That the action in moving prevention
OF disease cases to this department was
the proper move has been proven by
experts on hospital survey, who have
stated that the Children'S Hospital is
several steps in advance of any other
hospital through taking this action.
The unwilling is expected to be at
tended by notable gathering Of WASH
ingtonians.
