TASK OF SECURING HEALTH FUND TOLD Detroit Official Says Charts Readily Prove Value of Service How funds services, Montreal, -- 1Mecient health to for how obtain public to cajole, providing the | npcessary funds, was the subject of an afternoon session of the Fablic Health Nursing section of the American Public Health As- sociation, All speakers empha. sized the value of publicity, and one or two put forward daring and heroic methods within their experience. Dr. Henry I, Vaughan, Health Commissioner of Detroit, told of Leing asked by a ward politican to sign a contract to the effect that of he received a certain ap- propriation for public healtn ne would guarantee to reduce the in- fant death rafe in that ward from 200 per 1,000 to eighty per 1,- 000, In the end he did fot have to sign on the dotted line, but he did offer to do so, and had no difficulty in reducing the death rate below the 80 hargained for. Value of Charts More than one speaker advan- ccd the idea that if one put it di- rectly up to men how health ser- vice definitely meant saving a measurable number of human lives, they would not haggle about the mofiey involved. Dr. Vaughan showed the value of charts giving the infant mortal- ity rate blocked out by sections. I'his enabled the health worker to go to the aldermen of the back. ward ward districts and point out that an appropriation of so much would reduce the death rate, and convert his section from an object lesson to an example. In putting on a 'sales drive" for public health, Dr. Vaughan shewed the value of a house-to- house cdnvass by nurses, This personal factor was also empha- sized by Miss E. A. Russell, di- rector of public health nurses, Winnipeg. She paid tribute to the all important par played by the | women's association in arousing interest in the public health of Manitoba, Every means was used the press, radio talks, club ad- dresses, health exhibits at local and provincial fairs. Much work wag done through the schoas, by securing the interest and co.op- eration of the teachers. Facts Essential Miss Helen V, Stevens, direc- tor of the Public Health Nursing Association of Pittsburgh des ri- bed the publicity necessary to put '! over a Community Chest camp- aign, like that of the Fluancial Federation in Montreal, "Wa must give facts," she said, but (hey must be honest facts.' Miss Ste- vens emphasized the value of fig- ules, graphic tables, and compar- ative charts, She revealed a know- ledge of psychology when she re- commended that the social agen. cies should have their case pres- euted to the appropriating board by some gound business man, res- pected by his fellows, who would od more likely to influence a "IrRersuade, or browbeat appropria- tig bodies into be telf. The mere presence of such a man in an appeal streng'hencd the hands of the social agencies With regard to propaganda or "galesmanship," Miss Stevens ad- vocated the essentially human story, without mawkish senti- mentality. This could best be presented by a woman speaker. The response to a Community Chest drive, according to Miss Stevens, represented accurately what a community has been edu- cated to give. Her remarks, however, were meant to apply on- fy in normal times. "Some of nus do not know what is ahead of us thie year," she said, WHAT NEW YORK IS WEARING .

Size Rich Fur Shipment : Comes From Arctic Winnipeg, Man., Sept. 19.-- Nearly half a million dollars worth of fur gathered from the sub-Arctic barren lands was ship- ped to London, England, via Can- adian National Railways. The shipment, seventy-five bales in all, was composed of priceless pelts-- silver fox, white fox and a few choice heaver skins. The shipment, which left Win- nipeg on the Continental Limited were brought down by boat from Chesterfield Inlet and trading posts alorig the bleak wést coast of Hudson Bay, The cargo is said to be one of the richest in a decade and marks a comeback of northern Manitoba in the fur business, The year's. struggles trappers--white, Indian and Es- kimo---over a tract of thousands of miles of barren, treeless coun- try are represented in the unim- portant looking sacked bales, During the recent years the catch has been steadily declining along the Bay coast, but the past winter's takings were exception- ally heavy, principally white fox.. of which there was a sensational run, This is the richest single shipment ever made over the THE MYSTERIOUS WHISTLE When eyes are fooled and ears deceive, "Tis hard to know what to be- lieve. ---Farmer Brown's Boy. Farmer Brown's Boy had climbed high on the mountain- side, higher than the trees grew, higher than he ever had been be- fore, for back home there were no such high mountains. On the edge of a great rock slide he had stopped to rest and get his breath and marvel at the wonderful view spread before him, Peak on peak the mountains towered ns if seeking to touch the blue, blue sky, some of them with glistening white caps of snow. Rock crags were all about him. High above him Talons the Gold- en Eagle sailed in circles, creature, A feeling of awe took possession of him. Never had he felt quite so utterly alone, Fresently Talons disappeared in.the distance and the feeling of loneliness was greater than ever, Up on these bare rocks there was no life. He was sure of it. He spoke aloud just to Lear his own voice, "I feel ag if T were on top of the world," said he, "yet this old mountain goes on up and up and thers are other peaks higher still. I fee! as if I were the only one es in all the Great World." At that very instant there was a sharp, clear, piercing whistle. *i{elle! There must be someone cige up here after all!' exclaimed majestic | He saw no other living | "That is queer," he muttered, and whistled in reply. There was no response, 50 he put two fingers fr his mouth and whistled. It was the clear, loud whistle with which he had often called Bow- ser the Hound when the latter was far away. Again he waited in vain, He began to have a funny feeling. He certainly had leard a whistle, He was positive of fit. ' "It must be that some ons is trying to have fun with me by hiding among the rocks," thought he, "I'll just mind my own busi- ness and pretend I am not inter- ested," 80 . Farmer Brcwn's Boy sat down on a rock af. pretended to be interested only in the wonder- fui view, but z4) the while he was searching the rocks with his eyes for that unseen whistler. For a long time he did not move and there was no sound, At last he get to his feet undecided wheth- er to climb higher or go down to camp. As he did so he heard that whistle again, sharp, clear and piercing, and he was sure that it eame from behind a jum- ble of rocks some distance away along the very slope he was on. "All right, Mr. Who-ever-you- are, if you are hiding over there I'll soon find you," said he and gtarted for the rocks. It was farther to them than he liad thought, for the air was so clear that it was hard to judge | distances and distant things seem- | ed Furmer Brown's Boy in surprise, | and looked eagerly in the direc- tion from which the sound had come But though he looked end looked he could see no one.

But at last he reached that jumble of rocks and searched all through it in vain. | There wasn't a rock big enough | for a man, or even a hoy, to hide | behind that he didn't examine, Such a funny look as there was on his face! '"Hello!"" he shouted. "A joke "Some women 'were born to sing, to bear children, I was horn to make people laugh, --Marie Dressler.
