BY CHURCH WOMEN
For nmt time rumor have been
in circulation that many children ta
eur public chool are not well nour
ished. Child welfare lies very near the
heart of mothers and Just recently a
committee waa appointed from the
Mother' Claw of the First M. E.
Church to ascertain If these rumors
wer true and the committee waa giv
en power to formulate a plan where
by this condition, if true, might be
remedied.
The committee consisting; of Mrs.
J. B. Littler, Mrs. E. E. Fisher and
If in. B. L. Steeves, after consulting;
Superintendent Todd of our city
schools and Mia Robertson of High
land school, learned that the recent
milk survey brought about some
startling fact.
There are 21i pupil hi this school.
Out of this number 122 never have
ny milk, while about 60 of thi num
ber are In actual need.
At present a goodly number In the
primary department are given malted
milk by their teachers, upon their ar
rival at school, because of lack of
nourishment.
The committee was assured if suf
ficient fund could be raised a dally
soup ration could be in operation
within a very few day.
A plan ha been evolved whereby
only those in need will be given free
aoup, those able to pay will be charg
ed cost price, strict secrecy being
maintained so as to avoid the stamp
of poverty being put upon those need
ing It most and not encourage depen
dency, but all may avail themselves
ef the opportunity.
At a meeting of the Mother' Oh,
on Tuesday of thl week, at the home
of Mr. W. C. Young of North High
Itreet, the clasa guaranteed to raise
the necessary funds for three months
February, March and April, This
work meets with the heartiest apporv
1 of Superintendent Todd and his
corps of teacher in this district. The
teachers are to keep a record of the
weight and mental development of
the pupil to ascertain the real bene
fit from the new order of thing and
ft report will be given later.
It Is hoped this good enterprise will
meet with the approval of many of
our cltlsen and funds tor the entire
time will be freely forthcoming.
The committee will gladly receive
contribution at any time.

HELD THERE; REPORT
Pari. Jan. 29. The text of the Jugo
Slav reply to the allied ultimatum on
the Adriatic question, made public to
day, shows, as was stated yesterday,
that it amounted to a refusal to accept
the compromise offered by the Italians
but that in courteous term it asked
permission to lay before the power
some suggestions for alteration which
it considers necessary to secure stabil
ity In the region surrounding the Adriatic.
"A regards the proposal itself," say
one paragraph of the note, The royal
government la obliged to observe that
cannot accept it in Its entirety, and
the government counts on the spirit of
ustlce and equity of the power party
to the communication of January 20
to permit it to submit to them modifi
cation imposed by the necessity of
assuring peace In the Adriatic."

always discovered they were false. In

an tlallan strike-breaker waa to blame.
In another cose where a belt had been
