The contents of the note have been com- municated to the United States. Dr. Da Cunha after summarizing in his note the situation created by the attitude of the Ameriean government which has indicated its intention not to make representations at the eom- ing session of the league's council on the mandate question and the position of the council itself says “I therefore venture to agk the prin- cipal allied powers to be good enough to make every effort to arrive at a solution of the pointg under discussion between them and the United States so as to enable the council of the league of nations to settle the whale question of mandates before the next meeting of the assembly.” Iy ITEMS | $4.00 Straw Hats now $2.35.— Roseben, 388 Main street.—advt See the suits in the windoew at Wil- son’'s.—advt There will be a dance at the Stanley House on Maple street Saturday night.

Today, after several vears of occu- pancy, it is still the object of visiting physicians and surgeons from all parts of the world, who acclaim it the last syllable in modern hospital construe. tion and marvel that the enterprise of a gingle citizen, late Dr. C. L. Holmes, could move a municipality. the size of Cincinnati to expend some $3,000,000 on a project so purely al. truistic. When a patient enters the general hespital, his clothes are disinfected, cleaned, mended, pressed and hung in dustpreef bags pending his dis. charge. In hig ward he finds a sun parler and a roef garden. He drinks water distilled on the premiges and cooled with ice manufgctured on the grounds.
