a firm stand to the east OF the
River Struma in Thrace.
The governments drive, which
pressed the rebels across the river

aerial bombing.

Most of the reports about the
fighting in Thrace came through

Pin0Chle Winner Sure
Of Final Victory

At the age Of IA, Mr.. Louns.
bury began playing pinochle. His
tutors were his father and
mother, Samuel and Fanny
Lounsbury, who live in the 5000
block Sixteenth st. N. w. After
mastering the game, the local
champion has played on an av'
erage Of two or three times a
week. Regarding the game, he
said:
"Two-handed pinOchIe, such
as we played in the city tour
nament, really isn't q test of
your skill. Boy, the game I
like is really the Old-fashioned
back room saloon pinochle. In
that game everybody melds
their own. Hundred points is
the game and the two losers
battle it out for the drinks. OF
course I never played in
saloon, but believe me I've
played the same game.
LUCK, NOT Skill
"In two-handed pi chle
there's rs per cent luck and IS
per cent courage and card skill.
You have to make the most out
Of it when you get your cards.
"When 1 get to New York, /
guarantee I'll bring back the
bacon. Of course, / never eat
bacon, but you know what ]
mean by that expression"

that on the night he won the

TRAIN IS FREED
 OF ROCK SLIDE

Denver, Colo, May 20-(UP)- Workmen today cleared away last evidence of the rock slide which for Nseyen hours held the crack Denver and Rio Grande Western Panoramic Limited imprisoned in the No. tunnel on the Moffat road 25 miles west of Denver.
 Engineer Charles Osman was pi- loting the flyer through a binding |snowstorm when suddenly a large rock on the racks just inside the entrance to the little" Moffat tun- nel loomed before him.
 He slammed on the brakes and the transcontinental flyer screeched to a stop. The huge fiywheel snapped when it came in contact with the boulder, derailing the To- comotive.
 Two hundred and fifty tons of rain-loosened rock and gravel crashed down from the mountain side above the tunnel entrance and smashed against the sides of the two steel coaches.
 While relief crews sent up from Denver struggled to free the train from the rock-clocked tunnel, two more slides crashed against the unbending steel sides of the train. Finally at 9:22 p. m., last night the Panoramic slowly steamed into Denver under it's own power.

 Dillane to Resign
 Registrar of Voters Thomas F.. Dillane, republican, whose dis nissal was ordered along with that of Registrar O'Connor, when talked with to-day stated that he would undoubtedly resign before the dis missaI order is issued in the SUI perior court on Friday. He said he had not yet submitted a resig- natoin to the mayor, however. Just who his successor will be is not known. It is known, though, that the new reorganization republi- cans would like to see ex-Alder- man Arthur E. Blewitt named deputy registrar. The latter, how ever, has his eyes on the regis trar's job but is being drowned upon by some, it is reported.
 Doubt was expressed to-day that Mayor Hayes would recognize the reorganizationist republicans by naming man of their choice for the post of registrar. There is a strong possibility that Deputy Registrar Albert Taller will be ad- vanced although this is only a matter of guesswork. Should Blewitt be named registrar it is believed he would immediately dis- miss Taller and put White in his place.

Health Education
 For Entire Family
Visiting Nurses Alert to Self-Sacrifcing Spirit of Mothers Human Interest Stories Concluded Today

fort to improve her own general health as nurse advised. Doctors permission was obtained for orders. Baby's habits were regulated and at the end of sixth week the baby was being fed entirely on mothers milk and is gaining normally and doing we'll. Mother visits her doc rto regularly and takes her baby to the baby station in her neigh borhood for weekly weighing. The mother realizes that weight is an index to the baby's health.
 Health Education
 When the visiting nurse visits a patient she includes everyone in the family in her health education. Baby B. was visited weekly after discharge from hospital and was doing we'll. But his mother had the same complaint each week. She was tired and was not recup- erating as she did after her previ- ous babies. Finally the nurse pre- suaded her to return to her doctor who examined her and told her she needed an operation, and should have it done immediately. This she refused to do and her health became greatly impaired. She was nervous, irritable and could not do her work and each day was worse than the day before.
 The nurse made frequent visits, ostensibly to see the baby but in reality to see Mrs B. She spent much time explaining the benefits of the operation and appealing to the woman's intelligence to inn prove her health. She admitted that the only reason for refusing medicol aid was the fear of surg cry. Her husband also wanted her to do as the doctor advised. Many visits were made and when the nurse left her home, she wondered if her work was in vain and due to the pressure of work the visits were made at longer intervals. One day a message was sent to the visiting nurse. Mrs. B. wanted the nurse to know she had finally had the operation three months ago and never felt better in her life. She was enjoying life again just as the doctor told her she would and was so grateful to the nurse for her explanation and encourage ment only wished she had carried out the nurses and doctors advice sooner. She would be glad to help the nurse hereafter in stimulating other patients to carry out the nurses advice.

Anthony J. Colucci Secur= ed for Talk-Building
 Fund Report Due

Anthony J. Colucci, will be the speaker at a meeting of the Holy Name Society of Our Lady of Mt Carmel parish at the Town Plot Church tomorrow evening at S:0O o'clock. MT Colucci, who has been one of the most active workers in the organization will leave next month to accept a position at Oak land, Cal.,, and this perhaps will be his last appearance here in this capacity. He has selected fixed charges on electrical and gas rates as his topic. He has been in the employ of the Connecticut Light & Power Company for the past II years and is well qualified to dis cuss this subject.
 MT Colucci will leave for the west in the middle of June with his wife and two children and motor to all places of interest en- route to his ultimate destination. He is also a member of the Wa terbury Lodge of Elks and asso- ciate with several Italian societ- ties in this city.
 During the business meeting pre- ceeding the talk a general report will be rendered by the commit tee arranging for the building fund which, when thoroughly established will be used for the completion of the church, which presently is a basement structure. The drive for funds has been in progress for some weeks in the past and the com- mittee is of the opinion that the $10,OO0 quota sought will be realiz- ed within the next few weeks. Work on the completion of the church will follow. John Savino, president of the unit will be chair man of the gathering.

 Mr Derwin said to-day, when talked with at the plant of the Waterbury Barrel Foundry and Machine company, where he has been employed for a great num- Der of years, that he was busy winding up his affairs with that concern. He said that he might complete his work at the plant to- night but he was not absolutely sure.
 Surprise Appointment
 News of Mir Derwin's appoint ment to the post of registrar of voters came as surprise. It also caused a scramble, 1t is re- ported, for the new appointee's place on the board of aldermen. It is expected, however, that Mayor Hayes will fill the aldermanic post with as much dispatch as he did the office Of registrar. It had been generally believed that Dep uty Registrar Michael Slavin was to be advanced. When Alderman Derwin was picked much surprise was expressed. It is not known who Mayor Hayes will pick for the aldermanic post.

 When Mrs J. and her first born baby came home from the hospital, the nurse visited to demonstrate the baby's bath and care. She also weighed the baby and noted that he had lost. Usually the new born baby does lose a little, so this was not surprising but in 2-3 days the nurse returned and weighed the baby and there was no improve ment. The mothers diet and health hygiene were considered. The for mula preparation and technique Of feeding was demonstrated to the mother. Baby was referred to family physician for a complete physical.
