About 1,200 puplils _representing eleven of the elementary public schools of the city gathered'at Walnut Hill Park yesterday afternoon and earried out the annual folk dance fes- tival before a -crowd of 2;000 inter- ested townspeople. The whole pro- gfam for the afternoon was in charge of Miss C.

Music for the dancing was furnished, by the two Lynch brothers and Miss Ethel Prior. Eleven May poles were set inside of. the roped area and it was around these poles that the. different groups of ¢hildren danced. Bach school that ' was represented by dancers had a special section in charge of {ts in- structor while the other schools Wwere grouped at various places butside of the dancing square. It was a pretty and spectacular: sight as the pupils appeared on the fleld dressed to'rep- resent the country from which many of the artistic dances come. _The program was given in remark: ably fast time showing to what extent the children have been drilled. The first dance of the afternmoon was “Ace of Diamonds” and this was quickly followed by the following: Danish dance of greeting, chimes of Dunkirk kinderpolka, ki hickory dickary dock, bleking, jack ‘tar, shoemaker, first of May, charlot dance, strasak, springtime, "Norweg- jan mountain march, sailor dance, Yankee Doodle, Highland socottische, Indian war dance, May pole, march, The special teachers in charge of the different groups of children fol- low: .

FOR RELIEF WORK; ° Surgical Dressings Committee Receives More - Letters The following extracts from letters recently received will be of interest to all local workers: M. Guillot-Declercq writes fram the French Red Cross: “We have re- ceived the cases which your kind solicitude for our hospital has led you to send us. Thanks a thousand times, fon the contents were most welcome. The rubber cloth we put on the beds, and it is of great service in protect- ing the mattresses, for we have now those who are so terribly wounded that it is almost impossible to move them. Each one of the nurses claimed a knitted wash cloth, but I distributed the wash claoths parsimoni- ously, not wishing to exhaust all our riches at one time. I made a reserve supply to draw on in an emergency. Nothing can equal the strength of the Knitted ‘articles, whatever their use. Think of us in the watches of the night, dear Madame, as our wounded think of you and of all the generous Americans who spend so much time in helping our hospital.”” Le Medecin Major Weisgerber at Hospital 73, Cannes, says: “I will try to thank you for yoyr very kind gift, Wwhich we have just received through the American Relief Clearing House. All ‘'the things are so useful and so welcome, and will be of the greatest service not only to our wounded but to the surgeons as well. Our brave men are extremely touched to learn that across the sea they have friends who think of relieving their suffer- ings and who seek to show by their Chesterfield CIGARETTES o IMPOKI'E[?MDOMESHC ‘tobacco_ ;—Blended generous gifts their admiration for| the efforts that are .being made for France and for the civilized warld. For myself( who have passed a year at the University of Chicago, it is with emotion that I think of my friends in America to whom I send, very modestly, the gratitude of France.” The assistant director of Hospital Auxiliaire No, 124 at Paris, writes: “The Comite Central des Becaurs American has just sent us some cases of gauze and of dressings from the surgical dressings committee of Boston. I wil Itry to express to’ you my gratitude for the untiring gener- osity to which you give expression in sending to the French hospitals. France - certainly will always be pro- foundly grateful to America, whose charity every day is greater and more sympathetic.” A letter from the Liverpool ‘Women’'s War Service Bureau says: “I am writing to thank you very much indeed for the eleven cases of surgical dressings which arrived safe- 1y at the end of last week, and which have aiready been despatched. We are sending all of them this time to Professor Garstong of Liverpool Uni- versity, who is working in behalf of the French Red Cross in the Carcas- sonne district. When he was home on leave a short time ago we showed him one of your cases of dressings, which he was very much taken with. He said that the hospitals in his dis- trict could do with an unlimited quantity of such beautiful dressings, and was anxious for a far larger supply than we could then give him. ‘we think. therefore that we should have your appraval and that of the Cunard Women'’s War Service associa- tion in sending him this consignment of dressings. I know that they will be greatly appreciated and of im- mense use. We are so glad to be able to help the French wounded from time to time and are very grateful for the splendid help you have given us.” BIDDS ARE APPBOVED At. a meeting of the finance com- mittee of the common council last evening the following bills were ap- proved: Health department, $1,- 838.38; street department, $6,096.67; street improvements, $1,964.39; street sprinkling, ' $1,826.35; street lighting, $2,570.56; subway, $4.39; sewer main- charity department, $8,- E fire department, $4,963.21; city hall commissicn, $4,851.06; police department, $384.79; interest and dis- count, $19,227.50; psyment on princi- pal,’ school bonds, $5,000; sinking fund, sewer fund, '$15,000; sinking fund, street bonds, $2,000; sinking fund, school bonds, $5,000; special ap- vropriations, Walnut Hill park, $4,- 000; City building, $4,500; incidentals, $1,319.56; dogs, $99.

The sporting editor of the Herald is holding two letters for the man- ager of the Ploneers baseball team. Same may be had by calling at this COLONEL RIPS UP COWARDS OF PEACE (Continued From First Page). send abroad at the earliest possible moment a great fighting army. Sec- ond only to the army in the work of winning this war comes our Red Cross. Indeed the Importance of this work is so great that the pres- ident of the United States has set apart next week-—from June 18-26— ao a period for sacrifice and unselfish generosity, a week In which the whole American people will be asked to join in raising funds to enable our Red Cross to perform its vast and indispensable duties in this war. “The president has also commis- sioned several of the ablest business men of the country as a war council ; i of the Red Cross, to administer this service on behalf of a stricken world. This war council tells us that a fund of $100,000,000 must be raised once in order to meet even the most urgent needs. “Here, indeed, is a summons every American. It is an enormous sum of money; but what comfort can we take in withholding that or any other sum of money if it is needed to relieve the suffering of our own sons or the sons of our allies who are fighting for all that makes life worth living. Should Give Without Stint, “Into the Red Cross without stint should be poured a heartfelt offering of thanksgiving that we are permit- ted to Join in this great service to all mankind. Our soldlers and sail- ors will do their part without fiinch- ing; we may rest assured of their courage and fidelity. The Red Cross offers to us who are not allowed to fight, the opportunity for sacrifice and for help. “We little realize what ts before us. Our own sons and brothers will soon be going into battle.

They tell us that in many cases today the wounds of soldiers in France must be tied up with newspapers for want of the nec- essary surgical bandages. When our men are wounded—as they surely will be in great numbers—are we go- ing to allow them to suffer yet more because we fall to provide these things which can at least mitigate distress? Surely not! But we must do it in advance. If we wait it may be too late. Do it now! “Our Red Cross must not only care for the shattered bodies = of wounded men; it alone can become a foster parent to them in the trying conditions they are sure to face when they are convalescent from wounds i our | or recovering from exhaustion We shall soon have an army.of a mil- lion soldiers.

Red Cross Shows Our Heart. “In no previous war have the in- nocent non-combatants had to bear so terrible a share of its physical suffering. And it is through our Red Cross that we can show to th tions of the world how the ¢rn.t heart of the American people goes out to them in their distress.
