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.

Trials of a Schoolboy.
Arithmetic, according to the aver

m order to give teachers a good ex

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.

To grin a little in the grime,
To smile a little sunnv.

The ones you buy are dear;

There's nothing cheap as cheer.
It doesn't take a lot of cash,

The day has trouble in it.
To just forget your own awhile,
Forget your discontent,
And give another man a smile

The velvets for our lasses
But free the gold of sunset skies,
The velvet of the grasses.

For satins here and there,
But not a cent for happiness
That all of us can wear.
