Health Bookkeeping

Few persons are aware Of the In
creasing importance Of vital stats
tics showing the number Of persons
born, and the number and cause Of
death Of those who die; the duration
o, life, and the circumstances affect
ing its duration In the state or coun-
try as = whole or IN any given COM
munity. In other words, vital stats
tics constitute the Bookkeeping Of
Public Health"
For North Dakota such "bookkeep-
ing" Is maintained In the State
Health Department, which has stead
- increased the efficiency Of It's
birth and death reporting system.
North Dakota made an enviable rec.
ord In 1924, when the state was ad-
mitted to the Birth and Death Reg.
jstration Area Of the United States
Census Bureau. the first state ever
to be admitted upon first examina-
ton. In one brief year after the or
ganization Of the full-time health de-
partment In 1923. state authorities
had succeeded in registering 80 per
cent or more Of its births and deaths.
Certainly such achievement should
be maintained. The Register Your
Baby" campaign now In progress on
> statewide basis offers parents Of
North Dakota babies born within the
last II months an opportunity to
contribute 70 the efficiency Of the
states birth reporting system. More
ever, by filling out and returning the
yellow "baby census" card received
through the mail from the census
bureau. parents win b Offering their
own children protection that may
prove its value In later life.
Altruistic In its aims and purposes,
this drive IL . patriotic endeavor that
demands not only tho cooperation Of
all parents but also the support Of
every individual and organisation In
North Dakota interested In child
welfare.

Miss Billie Burke would like to

Ziegfeld in The Great Ziegfeld, "
which Universal intends to pro
duce as soon as it can find the
players it needs for the very ex-
acting parts in this production.
Universal is finding it more diff
ficult to cast this production than
any which has been made at Uni
Yersal City in the last 20 years.
The only cast selection so far
made has been eminently satisfac-

role of the late Florenz ziegfeld.

Stars Once Paid
Talbot S Salary

HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 18.-Here's
letting you in on private laugh
that Lyle Talbot has been having
at the expense of Hollywood. Some
of the biggest stars who now in
vite him to their homes once
threw silver dollars. and even
dimes, at Lyle-and right here IN
Los Angeles.
It's a page in his past that the
Warner Brothers star reveals only
when he is in a mellow mood. and
among friends Then Lyle will tell
of the times when he sang with
out salary in a downtown night
club run by Eddie Brandstatter,
now proprietor of Sardi's, one OF
Hollywood'S Swankiest cafes.
1t was years ago. Lyle came to
Los Angeles to visit his grand
mother. He was youngster with a
nice singing voice (funny they
don't let him use it in pictures
and he got job in Brandstatters
in the old Majestic theater build
ing.
Neither Lyle nor the orchestra
got any salary. They lived from
tips thrown into the kitty" And
the most generous spender was
not a Hollywood celeb. but c. C.
Julian, Los Angeles promoter, who
last year committed suicide in
China. Julian used to come to the
club with a pocketful of silver dol
lars. AS the evening progressed,
his aim became poorer and Lyle
and the orchestra made many an
agile dodge to escape a whiZzing
silver cartWheel.
