o. Did President of the United States refuse to aid in the estab- lishment of the American Red Cross, and who was President when the Act granting it federal charter was passed?
 A. Clara Barton, in her efforts to establish the Red Cross in the Unit ed States, went to Presidents Grant and Hayes, both of whom refused to help her. President Garfield was about to grant her request when he was assassinated. President Arr thur, in one of his first official acts, presented the matter to Congress in December, 1881. The articles of incorporation were granted by Con- gress in 1882.
 e. Are more persons employed in the service of the Federal Govern ment now than at any previous time?
 A. As of June 30, 1940, 1,011,068 persons were employed in the Fed eral Executive Civil Service, and that is the first time in history that government employment has ex- ceeded one million. The previous peak was 987857 in December, 1939

Hershberger still had failed to
appear, Daniel Cohen, shoe
manufacturer of Cincinnati and a
close friend, went to the hotel
and found the body in the bath
room, its throat slashed by a
razor.
Teammates recalled that Hersh-

Both games featured a bad
inning for the visitors, the Key
Westers pushing across seven
runs i'm the third inning of the
opener and nine nuns in the
sixth inning of the nightcap.
In the first game the Fl.
Lauderdalers opened the scoring
with a walk and two singles. but
the locals came back to tie the
score up with a double by Arnold
and a single by Vargas. Same
situation came up in the second
frame when both sides scored two
runs. Game was sewed up in the
third, however, when the locals
punched three hits, walk, two
passed balls and two errors for
their seven-Fun splurge.
In the second game everything
pointed to a pitchers battle be-
tween Charlie Albury and Hogan.
the former holding the visitors 70

nings and the latter giving up
only four hits and two runs in
five frames. The sixth inning

PRUNES-PLAIN AND FANCY
A little prune magic is very much
in order right now, while this dried
fruit is 50 plentiful. PruneS, are be-
tween-season and all-season fruit,
with excellent keeping qualities. With
a box or bag of prunes on the supply
shelf, it is possible to fill a gap in
any one of the days meals. The sup
ply of iron is major point in favor
Of prunes, and they also furnish some
calcium. This is especially important,
because these two minerals must be
checked constantly in the average
diet. Besides iron and calcium, prunes
furnish some vitamin B and some vi
tamin A. But don't depend on prunes
for vitamin C, because most Of that
important vitamin is lost when the
prunes are dried
Stuffed prunes make a good salad
ingredient when combined with color
full fresh or canned fruit-sliced or
anges, grapefruit sections, pieces of
pineapple, or peach halves. Soak the
prunes until soft, cut slit in the side
of each to take out the pit and fill the
center with peanut butter, cream
cheese, or cottage cheese.
When prunes go into sandwiches
they may be dainty enough for after
noon tea, or hearty enough for the
children's lunch at school. Soak the
prunes until soft, remove the pits,
and grind them. Then mix with salt
and creamed butter or peanut butter.
