BY GRETCHEN S. SMITH. Sixty-three years ago a girl of 15 entered Providence Hospital suffering from a slight affliction of the eyes. Motherless and fatherléss since baby- hood she had been brought up by the sisters, under whose care she was taken to the hospital as a patient. In the hospital the girl came face to face with suffering and sickness and made a promise that if she recovered she would devote the remainder of her life nurs- ing the sick in the hospital. Within a short time the eye trouble disappeared and, true to her promise, Belle Moore started her training in Providence Hospital. That was in 1867, and until 10 years ago when she fell and broke her leg, Miss Moore saw un- interrupted service with the sick and needy of Providence.

LAKE RUM RUNNERS NEAR END OF CAREER Canada Ban on Liquor Exports Soon to Be Enforced, Expected to Block Trade. By the Associated Press. BUFFALO, N. Y, May 26.—The Balycon days of rum runners on the Great Lakes are nearing an end. ‘Within a week, as soon as the Gover- nof General of Canada affixes his sig- nature to the liquor export ban bill, Buffalo and other border cities will be affected tremendously from an alcoholic point of view. The mosquito fleet that legally oper- ates out of Bridgeburg, Port Colborne and other ports in Ontario and which conveys most of the illicit supply of lquor to this side, will be legisiated out of existence. Any alcoholic beverage exported out of the province will be exported illegally, if destined for the United States, which means the haz- ard of liquor smuggling will be In- creased doubly. There will be no more shipping legally from well appointed docks. What smuggling is done, and Canadian officials believe there will not be much, will be from isolated spots. The smugglers now have to contend only with the American authorities. ‘When the new law goes into effect, they will have to outwit both Canadian and United States cials. Buffalo nevspapers predict increased prices and impaired quality of liquor. U. S.
