Mrs.

Sevcik is willing to write to any girl or woman suffering from such Mrs. Talboy discussed the purposes of the league which are twofold. First, to receive the assent of States Senate for a ieague of nations and eecondly, to secure the endorsement of both the republican and democratic parties and to have each part incorporate a plank to this effect in'its political platform. The speaker described one-third of tlie world's population as reverting to primitive state in a mad scramble for food. Europe is dead industrially, averred the speaker, and can only come back through the cooperation of nations.

America is needed most of all, because, according to Mrs. Talboy, when Italy recently decided to discipline Greece, the League of Nations agreement provided for an economic embargo on Italy and this was 'impossible with the United States out of the league.

Taking the message, the girl wrote it on a slip of paper, and entered the Chayka room, to place the nola on a dresser.

There she discovered the pioneer lo'wan, lying near the foot of the bed, to which the cord had been fastened. Death came without a struggle, seeminglv, and this heightens the belief that Mr Chayka might have died from the shock" of the unfue effort, even if he had not taken the more tragic step. The condition of the Pearl City man was not such, by any means, to necessistate a nurse at his side every minute, as he was making such good progress that the custom of supper at eventide, without leaving a second nurse in charge, seemed absolutely applicable. He had been here since October 22nd. The physician's certificate allows that Mr.

S. Case, the representative of the Playground and Recreation Association of America, discussed these questions at the Chamber of Comrperce, 3e and made a marked impression here. Miss Harvat is eager to feel the public pulse, and she urges every citizen, who can possibly do so, to appear tonight, whether on the or not, to voice his or her views, as to what Iowa City ought to do. Major Harvat says that "no cKy can advance with giant strides not afford both the child and the adult ample opportunities for joyful and profitable play and recieation, during their leisure hours."
