Red Cross services to the men of the Regular Army and Navy the past year called for >647,376.19, of which the National Organization furnished >310,- 376.19, and the Chapters, >337,000. Sharing in importance with this re sponsibility was the Red Cross work of disaster relief during the year. In these operations there was absorbed a total of >1,922,782.90 up to June 30, this year. This represented >1,622,- 782.90 of National Organization funds and >300,000 from the Chapters. Re lief in foreign disasters amounted to >285,579.35. This sum was appropri ated altogether by the National Or ganization. Insular and foreign operations of the American Red Cross during the year Included relief in foreign disasters, the League of Red Cross Societies, Jun ion Red Cross Foreign Projects, assistance to insular Chapters and similar functions. Besides its disas ter relief, the National Organization financed these other branches of for eign work also, including >110,238.72 for assistance to insular chapters, >177,460 for the League of Red Cross Societies, >84,384.43 for Junior proj ects abroad, and >80,067.62 for other insular and foreign operations.

The chapters, in addition to the large part they played in all Red Cross activity, spent >678,000 of their own funds on general chapter services. The broad humanity of the Ameri can Red Cross can never be measured by the money it costs, but even in bare terms of dollars and cents, the scope of its work is indicated. A study of these facts also shows the necessity for the largest poaeible en rollment, since Red Cross service is maintained almost entirely by its membership. The annual invitation to participate in this work through membership in the American Red Cross, is extended from Armistice Day, November 11, to Thanksgiving, November 26. Red Cross First Aid Popular in America As Accidents Gain The rapidly mounting toll from traffic accidents has brought home to the public the necessity of being pre pared to render prompt assistance while awaiting the doctor. During the past year 356 chapters of the Ameri can Red Cross were instructing classes in First Aid, and in the same period certificates were issued to 20.601 persons qualified by Red Cross experts. Many cities throughout the United States are showing Interest In secur ing first aid instruction for their po lice and fire department personnel, and through the work of local chap ters, practical results have been ob tained in such cities as Washington, D C.; Toledo, O.; Boston, Mass.; South Bend and Indianapolis, Ind.; Port Arthur, Texas, and other commu nities. In co-operation with the State authorities, intensive training in first aid and rescue methods has been given to State police and constabulary members at four State training schools. Instruction in these subjects in public and private schools, colleges and universities has increased during the year. Attention has been given to training teachers at institutes and Bummer schools. The Red Cross first aid railroad car haa been in continuous operation throughout the year. It covered 10,340 miles, visiting 137 cities, where 1,200 meetings were conducted by the surgeons, with a total of 146,827 people. Industrie* particularly have availed themselves of the instruction afforded by the Red Cross. The Western Elec tric Company, for example, reports a reduction of the aocideat rate per 1,000 employee*. The present timber stand of the United States is estimated at 463,- 000,000 acres.

Dark-haired, dark-eyed Bebe plays a lovely Spanish senorita, confront ed with the old, yet ever-new prob lem of making a choice between two men—one, played by Cortez, a weal thy young South American who has helped her parents financially and asked her hand in return for the fa vors; the other a handsome Amer ican engineer, Bebe as Consuelo Garcia, meets while at school in the States. James Rennie has this role. Miss Daniels and Cortez are fea tured in “Argentine Love," which will be shown at Dudley’s Monday anduTesday. Others in prominent roles include Mario Majeroni, last seen with Glo ria Swanson in “Her Love Story,” Aurelio Coccia, who danced the ap ache dance with Miss Swanson in “The Humming Bird,” Russ Whital, Alice Chapin, Julia Hurley and Mark Gonzales. NAZIMOVA AT RYLANDER. “My Son” with Zazii lova and Jack Pickford will be at the Rylan der Monday and Tuesday. It is said that an actress or actor is eith er bom talent or acquires technique and talent from yean experi ence, swaying the emotions of an- diences. Jack Pickford is a natural actor though he has never been on the stage and yet in his screen per formances he seem to have natural ness, it is said he does his greatest work in “My Son”. Nazimova is considered one of the greatest emotional actress either on the stage or screen. She must real ize the value of contact between her self and the audience that follow her emotional reations, the naturalness in perfection in simplicity—moving supremely through a play of tears, and smiles—the story of a mother and a son—and a siren who lured him from home.
