DISASTER RELIEF COST
Red Cross Aided H5,0n Vic

Total $30,000,000.
Seventy-two dlsusters, with hun
dreds repotted killed and Injured, und
mure than 1 1.'MHIO either huiueless or
requiring ussistunee, eulled for emer
gency relief measures and the ex
penditure of $l,441.48a.3tt by the
American Ued Cross during the flseal
year ending June H0. VXX1, aeeonlln
to a statement based on the forth
coming unnuiU report . of the lted
Cross. The greatest toll of life was
taken by hurricane and tornado,
while the overflowing of rivers, the
breaking of dams and torrential rains
drove the greatest number of people
from their homes. The property loss
wus estimated at more than , $.'H,
000,000. Tlie year's disasters reported In
cluded twenty-six Hoods, nineteen tor
nadoes, fifteen fires, four epidemics,
two theatre collapses, two shipwrecks
(one an airship), and a bridge col
lapse, mine explosion, railway colli
sion, and a drought. Of the Hoods in
the United Slates that' at San An
tonio, Texas, caused the greatest
property loss, $(1,000,000 and the high
mark of fatalities, 100, while the
Mood in the vicinity of VU'ksburg und
Natches, Miss., forced 31,XH) (lernona
from their homes.
A National Calamity
Tn the Red Onus disaster relief
records there will probably remain
for many years one calamity whU-h
touched nearly every stute with a
sense of horror and of loss. This was
the distressing collapse of the roof
of the Knickerbocker Theatre in
Washington, D. C, resulting In nine
ty-six deaths and 12.r persons Injured.
Situated In the center of tlie benutl
ful Northwest residential section, this
motion picture theatre was patronized
by many persons of prominence both
In the official and civil life of the Na
tional Capital, whose family nnd per
sonal connections radiated out over
the entire country. The horror wus
Intensified by a torrllle snowstorm
which, though it retarded, did not
block Red Cross relief.
Airship Crash Finds Aid at Hand
The crush and destruction of the U.
S. Army's large airship Roum In Vlr
glnln last February with the loss of 34
olllcers und men and 11 Injured was
the first disaster of its kind to cult for
Red Cross relief in this country. . The
suddenness of the accident tested the
preparedness of the organization nnd
of the Chupter at Hampton, Va., hut
the response was Immedtuttt und relief
furnished the survivors, also funds for
the expenses of relutlvos of the dend,
who came from long distances to clirtm
their own. , i ,
In the year's oversea' record for aid
rendered by the Red Cross1 nrft two
flres In the Philippines, one In Manila,
which destroyed 1,000. .homes,, with a
loss of $1,500,000 and 5,000 persons
made homeless, the other at Tonlo,
which drove 3,000 from their dwellings.
In medical relief that was quick and
effective the smallpox epidemic In San
Domingo, which had a totul of 22,000
cuses with 225 deaths In. a stngl.efay,
tested the readiness of , the Red Cos8
for action, and the same can be suhl
of the Snn Domingo hurricane, which.
killed 12 persons and reduced the
homes of 182 persons to wreckage. A
flood In San Salvador, with a death
toll of 50 and 2,000 refugees, was also
effectuully handled by the local Chap
ter of the American Red Cross.
Relief Machinery Perfected
The year has seen the further per
fection of disaster relief administra
tive measures in every Held of Ameri
can Red Cross activity, and that the
work may he carried on to still g'renter
Accomplishments the American Red
Cross Is appealing for widespread re
newal of membership during the an
nual Roll Call, to be conducted this
year from Armistice Day (November
11) to, and including, Thnnksgivlng

Portland to Have
Music Week Nov. 5
Portland. Ore., Oct. 21, (t'uitcd
Press). M-.isic week will be ushered in
iu Portland by clashing of cymbals, No
vember 5.
Music week is an annual affair. H
will be marked by top-notch concerts by
local and imported talent. Artists whose
names tire a byword wherever music is
known will perform for Portland folk,
local orchestra nnd singers arc booked
for nightly appearances, and every mu
sical instrument iu the -city will be un
cased and the case chucked aside for
seven days.
i'Jie feature of music week iu Port
land this year is the mush-lcss dav which
precedes it. November l has been set
aside for the observance of the effect

and to make the silence more note
worthy such folks are urged to abstain
from the use of their mechanical music

And if this mother is not using the ef
ficiency method, hhe will be tired out
simply making preparation for the trip.
"I'd rather do iJiiiis ui.vse!? thun get
the children ready to help me." is often
the excuse; but that i decidedly the
wrong attitude for a mother to take, if
die i uiiMtii-rs both herself and the child.
I.et tiie children find nutt by experienee
where thine are mm they'll soon be glad
to take responsibility when they are
trained to assume it. Even very young
hildreii will surprise you in uuikn-g ili'-
duetions and following out difficulties to
a logiral solution.
How otlen we see nousenoKis wnern
there is a panic from rising time until
the last child is off to scJitol, "Come,
now .it's seven-thirty you'll be late if
you don't hurry. It's cold this morning
and raiuy too. Wear your mitten ami
rubbers and be sun to get a handker
chief." Thus mother follows the boys
and girls about, and they know she won't
let Uieni be late or forger anything, so
they are utterly unconscious of any re
sponsibility in the matter.
Now the wi e mother whose household
is builded on methods of efficieney will
let the children be late JVST ONCIO if
necessary. That will he enough. Tlie
disapproval of teacher und school-mates
will do more than months of talking and
urging tui mother's part, and in addition
the children will have been thrown on
their own responsibility. The share of
the burden thus lifted from mother in
no war cipuils the great gain made by
the children iu self-reliance.
A child at five is forming most of
the personal habits that he will use at
twenty, and just so fur as molJier does
things for him now, so much will his
efficiency ne reoueeo in niier uie.
Let's "make the children see that to
stand up under responsibility and to
cultivate resources within Uiomselves
are praiseworthy achievements. Only
thus do the boy and girl grasp the idea
