The women's board, which, each year, with the assistance of friends of the| hospital, puts through thix day's drive. wants the public of Washington to ap- preciate two particular facts. First, that last year was the busiest in the institution's history as regards the free care given both white and colos mothers and children, and 1921 bids fair to surpass it. The other is that since the close of the war there is a distinct falling-off in the prosperity of the persons enjoying this public service, and that, therefore, more patients come without suitable garments either for themselves or their expected offspring. ‘With appreciation of these in mind, it is hoped and expected that the public's offering will be correspondingly gen- erous. Clothes If Needed. Columbia Hospital makes it a point never to let a baby leave its doors with- out an adequate outfit of clothing, in- cluding necessary changes. From fifty from its wards. Materials for their clothing and bedding during their stay must be of good quality and light in weight, and such materials are ill-cal- culated to stand the wear and tear of laundering and _sterilization. with its high degree both of heat and pressure. ‘Washingtonians providing such things for one or twa babies of their own can easily realize the problem to be met when it is stated that on a sample day the white public ward department con- {tained twenty-thres new-born children and the colored department half again as many. departments, a recent record being the FRO THE SUNDAY.

ANGLERS HASTEN TO GET FISHING TACKLE Local piscatorial sportsmen are get- ting their paraphernalia in readiness for early fishing. Absence of ice in the rivers in this section the past winter suggested the probability of an early fishing season, and reports of catches made the past few days satisfled the sportsmen. that their an- ticipations were not without reason. White perch’' made their appear- anco in the deep water in the vichnity of Fletcher's the latter part.of the week. It is reported that numerous large- mouthed bass and catfish were caught in_large numbers In the Kastern branch in the vicinity of Benning bridgle, worms and porkrind being the bait used. Many catches of large-mouth bass have been made in the several creeks omptying into the Potomac along the lower river. Anglers who tried their luck at Aquia cfeek reported large catches, and a number of the fish have been caught in the tidal basin. local sportsmen who own, bunga- lows at salt water resorts within mo- toring djstance of this cily * have planned early fishing trips for white perch and rockfish.
