Manning, head of the "dispensary work of the American Red Cross for the children of Paris. He had been investigating! tuberculosis among the children and found that lack of nourishment was the main cause. The children were eating sufficient food, but it was not of the right kind. So the Red Cross has undertaken to supplement their rations. School canteens are now surplied with flour, beans, sugar, condensed milk, ham, tinned beef and cheese in quantities for 3.90O children a day.

With what the canteens already supplied this makes a well balaiiced menu and the improvement in. the children has been impressive. After this start the Red Chross Children's bureau laid plans I supplement, the canteens in other places which serve 28(000 children and, of course, throughout France the need of similar work is imperative.

Each branch carries a complete stock of bearings for replacement purposes on practically every make and model of car, truck or tractor ever manufactured. This means that instead of sending all the way to the factory for the bearings the information needed regarding them can be obtained from the local representative or the nearest branch without delay.

"We now have," said Ralph S. Lane, president of the Bearings Service Company, "almost 500 distributors throughout the ITqited States and CanadaNv These are in addition to our 22 direct branches. Such a large organization as this practically brings gearings service with the reach of every motorist, garage man or dealer. It also means that they will never have to suffer the inconvenience of be ing without their cars for several days while waiting for bearings to come from the factory. It eliminates delays formerly caused by mis takes of garage men and motorists, who, through lack of definite information as to the exact sizes or bearings needed, often sendi for the bearings of incorrect size."

MAPLE PARK HAS NEAR TRAGEDY" LAST SATURDAY What came mighty near being a tragedy occurred at Maple Park ort last Saturday afternoon when Arthur Mauer, 12 years of age, received a from a 22-calibre rifle in his leg a little; below the hip. The accident was a repetition of the old tale of "didn't know it was loaded." The boy's father had told him not to use the rifle, and had; as he thought, hidden It thoroughly from the lad. Saturday the boy and his cousin. George Mauer, from Chicago, found the rifle and started to play with it. While playing with it the gun was discharged with the result stated.

A doctor was promptly summoned and at the present time the lad is getting along all right and will not suffer any permanent effects from the' accident. FOR COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS.
