LLOYD HUTCHINSON Five New Hospitals I Provided for Soldiers! (WILL COST Jl.UUU.WIU AND LINE I I Locattd Conveniently In i J Each Section of U. S. J Washington. Feb. 23 Pursuant to its policy of benefitting the private soldiers who served in the World War, the Republican majority in the House has passed a bill providing for additional hospital and outpa tient dispensary facilities for those veterans vho are patients of the War Risk Insurance Bureau or the Fed eral Board for Vocation.! Training. Under the bill, which went thru by a vote of 220 to 110, a total of $11,000,000 i authorised for the purchase or lea.-e of existing plants, construction of new ones, and the re modelling of some plants with new equipment. Five hospital plants of fireproof construction for the treatment of neuropsychiatry and tuberculosis pa tients are to be located as follows: One in Ceniral Atlantic Coast states, one in the region of the Great Lakes one in the Central Southwestern states, one in the Rocky Mountain states, and one in Southern Califor nia. All of them will be as conven ient as possible for transportation fa cilities and for securing expert con suiting service.

See us about it today. who favorably reported the bill call ed attention to the faulty methods of the present Health Service by which an appropriation of several millions more had been asked for be cause of lack of knowledge of the fact that ten thousand vacant beds in ihe national soldier homes and some of the Army posts might be available for hospitalization.

So, instead of naming the cities or States where these new hospitals should be locat ed, as the Public Health Service rec ommended, and which would havi made it subject to that criticism, the bill designate certain zones within vhich they are to be located. The bill gives the Secretary of the Treas ury the widest possible lattitude in locating them. Public buildings and river and harbor improvements should wait while we take care of Hie hospital need- of the private soldier j who ri.-ked their lives and lost their health in making the sacrifice with ' out which this bill might not have i been of much service. Dt.ARTH OF OxYltEN. "The wide-awake student" ob serves a university man, "occasion ally puts a question which the next minute he will regret. In this rela tion one recalls a story told by a Yak instructor who was lecturing on oxy gen. " Oxygen.' he said, 'is essential to all animal existence. There could be no life without it. Yet, strange to say, it was discovered only a century ago.' " What did they do, then, sir,' a student asked, 'before it was discov ered?' "Harper's Magazine. Ways of Men. "I don't understand men." "What now?" "My husband ran a tank during the war and now he can't run a vacuum cleaner for me." Louis ville Courier-Journal. Might Be Worse Off. "Thankful? What have I to be thankful for? 1 can't pay my bills." "Then, man alive, be thankful you are not one of your creditors." Bos ton Transcript. Trials of a Schoolboy. Arithmetic, according to the aver age small boy, was simply invented m order to give teachers a good ex cuse for punishing their unhappy pu pils. And certainly little Tommy Smith found it the unpleasant fea ture of his young life. "Now, Tommy Smith," said the school-teacher one morning during the usual hour of torture, "what is the half of eight?" "Which way, teacher?" asked the youngster cautiously. "Which way!" replied the aston ished lady. "What do you mean?" 'Well, on top or sideways, teach er?" said Tommy. "What difference does that make?" "Why," Tommy explained, with a pitying air, "half off the top of eight is nought, hut half of it sideways is three."-Houston Post. Missed Her. I now is your atternoon onuge club getting on?'

Back in the dim distant years when the high cost of living was not an ever-present problem and some few things were cheap, James Whitcomb Riley walked into a barber shop at Greeneld for a five-cent shave. The proprietor of the shop was an old ne gro. . ' Well, Sam, how arc you getting .iiinj;?" Mr. Riley asked. "Mr. Jim, I had a very good day," Sam replied.

A gentle man of my acquaintance stepped out It doesn't take a lot of time Or need a lot of money To grin a little in the grime, To smile a little sunnv. The greatest jovs are often free: The ones you buy are dear; In all the world, it seems to me, There's nothing cheap as cheer. It doesn't take a lot of cash, It only takes a minute. When things have sort of gone to smash, The day has trouble in it. To just forget your own awhile, Forget your discontent, And give another man a smile It doesn't cost a cent. God made his gold a costly prize, The velvets for our lasses But free the gold of sunset skies, The velvet of the grasses. It costs a lot for coat and dress, For satins here and there, But not a cent for happiness That all of us can wear. THE WORLD IS A BOAT BUT WE DON'T ALL BOW WITH THE SAME BRAND OF SCULLS.
