HAPPENINGS Sfl inihe Big CITIES

How the Salvation HARRISBURG. PA.—The SalTstlon Army eaves annually enough waste paper to conserve approximately 9,000 seres of standing timber. This Item, juried in a report of Its social service department, attracted the attention of governor Plnchot of Pennsylvania, wno took the time In Harrisburg recently to turn aside from pressing legislative matters to bring the report to the attention of the Pennsylvania state forestry department He also wrote to Cot E. J. Parker, head of the social Mrvloe department, In which he said: “The paper-saving work of the Balvatlo* Army deserves the participation of every woman who Is Interested In public welfare and wants to contribute te the future stability of our nation.” During the last fiscal year the Army wagona collected 55,000 tons of waste paper. According to the Army, the American Paper and Pulp association of New York has stated that by scientific methode of calculation It has been shot n that every time six tons of waste paper Is returned to the mills, approximately an acre of standing limber has been conserved. The paper collected by the organization comes mainly from housewives who habitually nave for Army collectors. Governor Plnchot wrote to Colonel Parker: “Ridding your home of waste paper

New York Planning Giant Hospital

NEW YORK. —Plans for a new and enlarged Bellevue hospital, which will be the largest Institution of Its kind lu the world, were revealed at Welfare day of the Silver Jubilee exposition. A model of the new building was unveiled. The estimated cost Is from $5,000,000 to 17,000,000. Dr. John J. McGrath, president of the board of trustees of Bellevue and Allied hospitals, declared in an address at the evening session that the plans for the improvement and additions to Bellevue had been approved by Mayor Hylan. He said that, in addition to its work in healing the sick, the new hospital W’ould be "one of the greatest of medical teaching institutions." Doctor McGrath said Bellevue handled more than 40 per cent of all the ambulance work of the city. During 1822 more than 200,000 persons were treated in the out-patient department. “Bellevue,” he said, "may well be called the hospital of the open door, because it is always ready to receive those who apply for help.” Several weeks ago, before the alumni of the New York university

Brooklyn Zoo Loses Its Famous Lion

BROOKLYN.— Sarah, Helen and Queenle gated mournfully from their cages in the Prospect park zoo as a solemn little procession mounted the hill behind the lionhouse to perform final obsequies over Berk, king of the lionhouse, whose long career ended after 21 yam, Berk Just lay down and died. His years—the average lion age is fifteen —bad sat heavily on him lately, and he was not so peppy as in the days when Headkeeper John O'Brien used |o lend him to the movies when they wanted to film a Jungle scene in Long Island City. ' It was about a year ago that Mr. O'Brien noticed Berk was not ruling the roost—if you can call a lions' den A roost-rwlth his pristine vigor. Time was when Berk would settle a dispute between Sarah, Helen and Queenle with a single, thunderous roar. Os course when his roar began to squeak his moral influence over the girls began to wane. i-, But Queenle, Helen and Sarah were silent and mournful when the men lifted Berk's inert foi;m from the cage. The latest medical methods were api . —

Are Wedded in Brooklyn Rose Garden

Brooklyn. — miss Elizabeth Hoyt Sanarens and Owen Morton Gunderson were married In the rose garden In Prospect park. ' They had some difficulty In finding a minister of the gospel who did not consider a wedding In a public park a "show," as one clergyman had ruled. Even the faet that the particular spot In the park had been a favorite one of the bride since childhood failed to convince certain clergymen that the dignity associated with a wedding would not be lacking. Eventually Rev. Mr. E. J. Marvin of the Fenlmore Methodist church agreed to officiate. The time set was 7:45 0 clock In the morning. To avoid an expected crowd, however, the wedding Party arrived 15 minutes earlier, much to the relief of waiting reporters and photographers. The crowd was missing.. Fourteen young things, full of Ciggies In the presence of romance, a •Quad of policemen; married and hard-

Army Saves Paper Is a domestic necessity. Keeping paper from being scattered over the neighborhood Is a civic duty. Helping to conserve America’s forests Is an act of patriotism. Giving men who are down a chance to get up Is a humanitarian responsibility. You accomplish ail four In one stroke by saving waste paper for the Salvation Army. “I am particularly interested In the conservation aspect of the enterprise. It deserves the participation of every woman who is interested In public welfare. •The collection of paper does more than save forests. It also regenerates thwarted human life. The good of this industry Is two-fold. The one economic and the other humanitarian. And, what is most surprising of all, Is the fact that It pays for Itself. I am told It Is the only self-supporting branch of the Salvation Army.” The sorting and baling of waste paper Is done by “down but not outers'' in the 95 Army Industrial homes of social service centers throughout the country. The money received from this salvaged paper Is used exclusively to pay for the maintenance of the Army work. It Is self-supporting. The report of the work comes at a time when the Department of Agriculture, through the federal forest service, In Its year book warns of the necessity of conserving the nation's supply of timber.

and Bellevue Medical college. United States Senator Copeland said the present buildings were fire-traps and, unless something was done, a “terrible catastrophe" would occur. He estimated that between 55,000,000 and $9,000,000 were needed for improvements and additions. All of the hospital exhibits at the Jubilee attracted special interest. A reception was given to Doctor McGrath by the board of managers of the Bellevue Training School for Nurses In the evening. Mayor Hylan and Commissioner Whalen were among those present. Seven small boys tapped and hammered a welcome at the Gouverneur hospital booths. They gave a demonstration of shoemaking and offered to repair the footwear of visitors. The small shoemakers ranged in age from six to fourteen years. They are part of the floating school maintained by the hospital for children exposed to tuberculosis in their homes. So many contributions have been submitted that the prize march contest in connection with the exposition bad to be extended.

plied to prolong Berk’s life. Quite a while ago the rough diet of raw horse meat that vigorous lions enjoy came to be too much for Berk, and Dr. John Gillespie, veterinarian at the zoo, put him on a diet of rabbits and squabs. Rabbits have a tonic effect on devitalized Hons. Lately also Doctor Gillespie had been administering a serum to put pep into the aged lion. He was able to keep on his feet up to the moment of his death. In the morning he Just looked wearily around at the world, nodded to the girls and John O'Brien, lay down and went quietly to sleep. Berk had quite a history. Once he was a star performer in Mme. Dorsey's wild animal act, when It was showing at Bostock’s In Dreamland. That wqs ten years ago, before the Dreamland fire. The Berkeley Institute of Brooklyn decided when the lions were sold that one should go to the zoo and Brooklyn school children started a fund. With their pennies, dimes and nickels Bi"rk was bought and installed as king of the zoo. He fulfilled that function with dignity.

boiled, and four laborers on their way to work, were the spectators. Park Commissioner John N. Harman was master of ceremonies. The maid of honor was Miss Harriet Smith. The best man was Sinclair Senarens, the bride’s brother. The park commissioner escorted them and Mr. und Mrs. Luis Senarens and Mr. and Mrs. George Gunderson, parents of the bride and bridegroom, to ths rose bower and the service began. Unfortunately, the park commissioner filled the entrance to the bower and nothing more interesting than the back of his neck was offered for public vew. The ceremony, Including the customary kissing of the bride, did not last much more than 15 minutes. The wedding party went away in automo* biles, the police urged the reporters to depart and not step on the flowers, and the childhood dream of Miss Senarens was realized. The couple will pass their honeymoon in Bermuda.
