N the findings of the Federal Farm
Housing Survey, rural Virginia was
shocked to learn that IS per cent of own
ers' homes and 6I per cent of non-own-
ers' homes were III poor condition; that
70 per cent of the white population, and
90 per cent of the colored, carried water
a distance of from 200 to 400 feet; that
only 10 per cent of whites had flush toll
cts or bathtubs in their homes; and onl,
about third of the houses were fairly
adequately screened. The figures On
electrified homes ran much lower, and
as to interior furnshings-well, when
the home demonstration agent took
look around, drab picture was pre-
sented.
SO the Department of Home Econom-
les of the State Cooperative Extension
work called into conference at Blacks
burg, the Departments of Engineering
and Rural Sociology. AS a result,
long time program for better rural hous-
ing was mapped out, which is showing
splendid results after an intensive cam
paign effort started last year and CON
tinuing through 1896.
At present, the 50 county home dem
onstration agents, working under the di-
rection of the State Staff of which Miss
Maude E. Wallace is the Executive
Head, are pushing this program.
Variety of Improvements
Forty-four counties in which home
demonstration work is being done are

GentleWomen OF Virginia Take The Lead
By Charlotte Hr Tembh

Goochland folks say they must have
more livable living rooms; Fairfax,
house repair and improved housekeeping
equipment; Franklin, storage and
sanitation; Frederick, Greene, Highland,
Louisa and Madison folks are doing all
round repair jobs; Giles women are
looking to better kitchen storage; Hall
fax is working toward water in every
home and Henry County women want
better storage space for foods in Winter
James City County is repairing houses
and furniture; Lee County is aiming at
better pantry and kitchen utensil stor~
age; Montgomery is installing water
systems; Nansemond and Norfolk Coun-
ties have on as neighborly contest the
recondltioning of house furnishings.
Much Accomplished
Nottoway, Prince Edward and Wythe
are among those realizing the need for
more and better storage facilities in the
home; Orange combines storage spaces
and sanitation; Prince William, house
repairs; Pittsylvania, better food care;
Rockbridge and Shenandoah are to have
more convenient and cheerier kitchens
Spotsylvania is urging better home sani-
tation and general repairs; Tazewell
women have a clothing project which
will be climaxed with fashion show.
Bedford, Chesterfield, Henrico and
Powhatan are planning landscape gar
denng.
Roanoke has heavy registration of
contestants i'll campaign for the Eli
mination of Hazards in the Home
Albemarle County is doing an out
standing piece of work under their CAM
paign slogan Bring the Old House Up
To-Date" One hundred and fifty wo-
men are entrants, each having selected
for herself what her home most needs to
bring it up-to-date and then concentrate
ing on that need.
Much has been accomplished along
sanitation lines in many counties, con-
spicuous among these being Prince Will
liam.
So Virginia swings back to her proud
heritage, the home of country gentle
men and fine country homes, and it is
the gentlewomen of Virginia who are
accomplishing the job.

CARL CALUSD.
ARTIST, DIES

Lying unread, a book of press
clippings in a small room of the
old Draper mansion today SYM
bolized the acclaim which a for
getful world withdrew from Carl
Calusd before he died.
Although his paintings hang in
many noted galleries-and al
though he was once well-to-do and
honored by the great-the artist
Succumbed yesterday in dire pow
erty.
The end came for Calusd in
Casualty Hospital, whence he had
been borne by a friend-a res
taurant proprietor whose estab-
liShment is below the little room
at Seventeenth and K Streets
where CaluSd made his humble
home, with a few canvasses and
press clippings as his principal
possessions.
CaluSd, who fell q prey to
complications arising from a Sc
we're cold, once was a protege of
Dowager Queen Marie of Ru-
mania and painted the portrait
Of Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt
which was given to the President
as a birthday gift two years ago.
Born in Constantinople, Calusd
studied art there and in Paris.
He came to the United States
when the World War almost
broke up the art colony in the
French capital.
Even though he died poor,
Calusd will have a decent burial.
He was an Armenian by birth,
and fellow-Armenians here have
banded together to provide a fu-
neral and a burial plot.

not shown such marked reduction as the other groupings.
 As matter of fact the first week appears to be the most critical in infant mortality is crowded into deaths occurring in the first week of life. This was not 50 in 1918, when less than one-third of the an- nual deaths fell in the first week. This indicates great saving among infants, once the first critical week of life has been passed.
 While the state rate of 43.2 is our record it is by no means the lowest possible. Any further re- duction must come from Q study of the mortality in detail, the bulle- tin said. It is clearly indicated that the deaths occurring in the first day of life must be reduced; and in this connection 1t must also be remembered that the greatest single cause of infant deaths is premature birth; and these infants die most frequently within the first day.
 Prenatal Care
 Adequate prenatal care will re- duce the premature births, and the expectant mother should see her physician early, and as frequently as he will suggest, 1t was recom- mended. Some 20 years ago, about one-fifth of all infant deaths could be attributed to premature birth. In recent years, so many of the other causes of infant mortality have been controlled, that prema- ture birth now constitutes about one-third of the total mortality, graphically emphasizing the im- portance of this cause. It points the way to further reduction.

HABIT MAY CAUSE
 IRREGULAR TEETH
Thumb Sucking, Mouth Breathing, Cheek Biting
 Acquired in Childhood

Dentists who make Q practice of strengthening teeth, inform us that irregular teeth are but Q symptom of an abnormal condition, predis- posing causes of which might in- clude anything which interferes with the normal development of the teeth and jaws. Such interference includes habits which are often acquired during childhood and when once acquired, are not easily broken or corrected. Among these habits are thumb sucking, mouth breathings, lip biting, lip sucking, cheek biting and tongue biting; any or all of which, if allowed to con- tinue, will produce results which, in all probability, will prove regrettable later in life.
 The pressure exerted from such habits will be sufficient to bring about an abnormal relation of both the upper and the lower jaws. This irregularity does not always nani- fest itself until after the eruption of the permanent teeth.
