MORE V[NTILATING
IN BUSES ADVISED
Health Department Reports
Results of Tests on TWO
Lines Here.

Tests of the air on the Chevy Chase
de luxe line Of the Capital Traction
Go. and the Sixteenth street line of
the Washington Rapid Transit Co con
Quoted by the Health Department have
revealed that the ventilatng systems
OF the busScs are not sufficient to keep
the bussaS properly ventilated when the
windows are closed
A report to this effect was forwarded
by the Health Department to the Pub
lie Utilities Commission today. The
commission ordered the report copied
and copies OF it sent to the various
companies operating local bus lines in
Washington. The department recon-
mends more ventilation.
According to the Health Department
report. one test made on December 3
in Chevy Chase de luxe coach Of the
Capital Traction Co showed that the
air contained 20 parts Of carbon dioXide
In 10000, which the report SAYS is too
high" A test the same Gav on a Six
tecnth str ct Washington Rapid Tran
sit bus also showed 20 parts of carbon
oioXide IN 10000. test on December
on @ Sixteenth street bus of the
Washington Rapid Transit Co showed
is parts Of carbon di0Eide, and an
otiIsI test made the same dav on an
other bus OF the same line showed II
parts. In the aforementioned test the
rear windows Of the bus were partly
open. in the other tests the windows
We're closed. In all tests the veutllat-
ing system was open
The report concludes as follows:
THE conclusions TO be drawn from
the data az hand are that yentiIating
facilities OF the coaches are not sufi-
cient when the coaches are fun unless
some Of the windows are partly open.
Obviously The keeping open of windows
in cold weather is not practicable.
Cons qucntly further ventuating facili-
ties should be provided"

TO contribute to the relief of the un-
employed, through progress of the con-
struction work, there are two pressing
special reason why the work should not
be delayed.
The first is the need to complete
the transepts and the crossing in order
that an inspiring service of thanks
giving may be held there in 1882 in
commemoration of the 200th anniversary
of the birth of George Washington and
the second reason is that millions of
pilgrims will come to washington during
the latter part of 1881 and during the
bicentennial year, Bishop Freeman said.

Modem Eskimo Maids Have All Flapper Wiles

Seattle, April 2. P--A beauty expert visiting Alaska would find it hard to distinguish between the Eskimo flapper and her sister in the states today
 Those who visualize the Eskimo maiden as flat-nosed, sWarthy, high cheek-boned miss who chens blubber would be surprised should they go to Alaska, says Jonathan H. Wagner, chief of the Alaska di vision of the United States educa- tion office.
 The pure blood Eskimo will be extinct in another 30 years, predict scientists who recently visited the far north, but that is nothing 60 worry about, says Wagner, whose headquarters are here.
 The beauty that prevails among Eskimo girls is in no danger ot vanishing, for the native population is increasing rather than dying ouy, he declares.
 Accurate figures on the Eskimo population are difficult to obtain because Of the assimilating process that is underway, but without re- gard to racial stock the number is growing from to 5 per cent year. ly. Wagner states.
 Records kept by school teachers show that in every section of Alaj- ka births exceeded deaths among the Eskimos last year.

Fms Career From Animal To Coat
 To Be Shown In Leipzig Exposition

Leipzig, Ger. April 9. R}-Modern mote conditions.
 Some tribal war in far-off Tur- kestan today may affect fur fash ions in Paris tomorrow.
 The fur market is now world wide in scope and interest. A Rus sian conservation program or French tariff may have a sharp ef- feet on fur values and the popu- larity of certain skins.
 To most women fox is a fur scarf, but to trappers and breed CTS it is means of livelihood. Gov ernment conservation agents have figures to show he is 8 national re- source.
 Sportsmen admire the fox as wild game deserving protection, while poultrymen despise him as vermin to be externlinated.
 Most other fur-bearing animals have equally diverse values to the world of sport and the international fur industry.
 These interests will be brought together for the first time this summer at the International Fur and Hunting Exposition here from May 31 to September 30. Sports men, hunters, trappers, fur dealers and government bureaus are send ing displays.
 Potential evening wraps will be displayed by live ermine and Rus sian sable, while models will show the finished products in fashion re- vues.
 Exhibits of methods and weapons of the hunt in ancient and modern times, and methods of manufacture will show the progress of the fur from animal to Wearer.

Noscblced
 The uncommon term of cpistaXis is the technical name for nose- bleed condition which, though common, is not as simple as most persons consider il.
 Noscblced may be due to local conditions in the nose and again jt bearing witness to something scri- ous affecting other parts of tn, body.
 When due 10 local causes, nosa- bleed is usually the result of in- jury. small ulcers, or picking or scratching the nose. New growths, and in children the presence of foreign bodies in the nose, may cause bleeding. In chronic nasal Catarrh noscbleed is not uncom- mon.
 While bleeding from any of the above causes may be severe, the conditions in themselves are not Of great importance. It is otherwise when the bleeding is due to organic disease.
 In full bloodcd," perpetually flushed persons. nosebleed is very common event and may indicate a high blood pressure. It is not uncommon 10 find nose bleed preceding apopleNy. In hard cning of the liver. in chronic anonlas and in certain forms ut kidney disease, cpistaNis is co1u- mon.
 Blood from the nose may som j. times trckle down the back of the throat and either be swallowed or srat out, leading to d suspicion ot hcmorrhaGe from lungs or stom- ach.
 Deaths resulting from ordinary ncseblccd are rare. The more blood lost, the greater the tendency to clotting. Hence ordinary bleed ing from the nose need not alarm one.
 A few simple measures usually suffice to stop cpistaXis. Holding the arms above the head usually helps; so does the gentle snuffins o; cold or hot water. or the applicd- tion of ice to the nose. In more severe cases it som a- times becomes necessary to plr, the nose with cotton or to cauter- izc the bleeding points.

It was two weeks since Peter Rabbit visited the Smiling Pool. There had been many other things to take up his attention. He ha been so disappointed when he dis covered that the Quacks had lett the Smiling Pool that he had lost all interest there. He hadn't intend- ed to go to the Smiling Pool on this night. He had gone over to the Laughing Brook and it was while he was over there that the thought occurred 10 him that he might just as we'll run down to the Sm!l- ing Pool to see if there was any news there.
 Now, at one end of the Smilni; Pool there is an alder swamp. It Is through this alder swamp that the Laughing Brook enters the Smiling Pool. Peter likes this little alder swamp, because there is always q good hiding place handy. In the spring the bis leaves of the skunk cabbage are everywhere. It is Il very easy matter to hide under those big, broad. green leaves.
 When Peter reached the Smiling Fool, he continued out on the balx where he could look all over the Smiling Pool, He didn't expect 60 see MT. and Mrs. Quack. But tha thought had occurred to him that there might possibly be some oth 1T visitors in the Smiling Pool. He saw no one. however. Not even Jerry Muskrat. Pccpcr the Hyla anl Stickytocs the Tree Toad were sing ing as if they had nothing else in inc world 10 do. He tried his bet to sec them, but he couldn't. Th,y were in tho water somewhere with just their heads out.
 Peter hoped along the bank Of the Smiling Pool toward the low CT end. He had it in mind that pe-- haps he would follow the Laughing Brook 10 the Rig River. Presently he came to where the Laughing Brook left the Smiling Pool. Right on the edge of the water he discov- cred something that gave him quite a start. Yes, sir, it gave him quite a start. It was feather It was a feather from q Duck. It was q feather from a Mallard Duck. Peter knew he couldn't be mistaken. H. looked it over very carefully. Thea he began 10 look along the shorc for more feathers and presently he found several of them. They We're floating lightly on the water. Two or three were on the shore.
 Now. what do these feathers mean?" said Peter to himself. If I know anything about feathers, these feathers were dropped this very day. They were not left by the Cuacks when they were here. for these feathers are soft and fluffy Can it be that another flock 0f Ducks has stopped here on the way North? That must be it. They must have stopped here and then gone on again. l wish Jerry Muskrat would come along. Jerry mus, know."

Their Narrow Escape from Death Leaves the Travellers on Edge as They Continue On to Kingston


 "Yes, l know" Lillian agreed when I had outlined my reasons for not agreeing to her proposal D leave our car in its precarious posi- tion upon the icy mountain road and walk to the nearest house. "Only-but there's Mary coming back. Listen. Shes singing"
 The words floated up to Us, through the darkness in Mary's clear caroling tones, and I recog- nized a favorite chant of hers: We ain't got q barrel of money, we may look ragged and funny, but we're rolling along, singing a song-'
 T wonder if she imagines herself and Noel gypsying by the side Of the road Lillian whispered, but I lad not time to reply, for Mary was running lightly as she sang, and in another two seconds had rounded the curve and come up to the car.
 "Its Safer
 q beg leave to report" she said with her hand mp in a military salute. that the road is clear, not icy, and with enough snow along the sides to give a grip to the wheels"
 How is it just behind the car?" l asked. "Vcry icy"
 Toss me the flashlight and I'll look it over" she replied. and when she had finished her inspection her verdict was reassuring.
 No. there's some snow right be- hind you. The bad ice ended, guess, light at this place where you skidded."
 Then" I decided. "Ill back down. Lillian, I'm going to ask you and Mary to walk down to the bot tom of the hill"
 "Why?' Lillian demanded sharp ly. If you think the danger of tn : car going over the brink is suf- ficient 10 make you want us out of iS you're not going 10 move it one inch
 Please hug 10 your soul your own time-nonored admonttion not to be an anointed idiot because yoll know how" 1 retorted, although secretly the consideration she had named had been in the back of my mind.
