MEMORIAL WILL
DRAW PILGRIMS
War Mothers and Widows
Expected to View Mon
ument In France
PARIS, July 25.—(/Pj—The great
est pilgrimage to France of Ameri
can mothers and widows of World
war dead undoubtedly will take
place in 1932.
It is hoped to have the impos
ing memorial in the Meuse-Ar
gonne, largest American cemetery
1 in France, completed by that time.
On a hill captured by American
troops a marble column 160 feet
high will rise above the wreckage
of the town of Monfaucon.
Under the new law mothers, and
widows who have not re-married,
who have not previously visited the
graves of sons and husbands in
Europe, can now do so at govern
ment expense. The visits will be
: made between May 1, 1930, and Oc
tober 31, 1933, as may be desig
nated by the secretary of war.
The memorials are being erected
by the American Battle Monuments
Commission of which Gen. John J.
Pershing is chairman. Some of
them will be complete by Decora
tion Day next year. But compared
with the Meuse-Argonne, where so
many men lost their lives, the other
cemeteries will draw comparatively
few women.
Flanders Field memorial in Bel
gium will be one of the first fin
ished. The 367 graves of the gal
lant 91st are arranged in a hollow
square. It is hoped to have the
beautiful memorial being built in
the center complete by May 30,
1930. Around the outer edge of the
square of glimmering white stones
will be a sunken garden.
The second largest monument is
being erected at St. Mihiel ceme
tery. This, too, will be finished by
1 1932. Most of the memorials take
form of chapels designed by
prominent architects and approved
by the national commission of fine
arts. They will be restful, impos
ing sanctuaries where relatives may
go for meditation, and prayer.

BABY’S WAY PREPAID,
NEW INSURANCE PLAN
CHICAGO, July 25.—(JF)—Baby
Schneider—charges prepaid.
Bernhard J. Schneider, Jr., who
arrived in this world in June, need
never worry about increasing medi
cal costs nor need his parents.
He is the first baby to come un
der the health insurance contracts
recently inaugurated by 227 Chicago
physicians.
For a nominal sum, paid yearly,
Baby Schneider and the other mem
bers of his family are issued the
best medical and hospital care. No
matter how high the fees, they are
absorbed by the Health and Hospi
tal Service bureau, said to be the
first organization of its kind.
The best part of the plan in Baby
Schneider's case, so far, is that
no bills accompanied him.
BLIND TEACH ’
SIGHTED MUSIC
New Staff System Is Per
fected By Sightless
Instructor
•r _____ ____
SALT LAKE CITY, July 25.—
—Blind music teachers are enabled
to instruct classes of sighted pu
pils through use of a method that
has been perfected by William
Nichol, a blind teache: of this city.
The system, in use at the Mc
Cune School of Music and Art for
a year and a half, is declared to be
the first successful plan for class
teaching by blind instructors, andx
it is hailed as opening a new field f
of endeavor for the blind.
Nichol, a graduate of the state
school for the blind at Ogden, Utah,
and a teacher for many years, col
laborated with C. W. Reid, a piano
instructor in the McCune school, In
the development of his system of
teaching by the blind. It incor
porates a “tangible’ staff and notes,
1 by which file blind teacher can in
dicate to the sighted pupils, and
himself can sense through touch,
the position of various notes on the
staff.
The staff has lines of wires to
which are affixed movable notes
made from saxophone pads painted
black. Mr. Nichol Is developing an
improved mechanism on which the
notes appear on a similar staff
when the teacher depresses the
corresponding note on a keyboard.
Tender the direction of Miss Tes
sie Newton, also a graduate of the
Utah school for the blind, classes
of ha!I a dozen or more sighted
pupils have been given music in
struction for the last year and a
half through an arrangement fi
nanced by a group of local spon
sors, fcsaued by John D. Spencer.
Discovery of ancient Corinthian
baths with most modern sanitary
arrangements has been reported.

To Women _«
A-' ^
who drive their own cars
Hi* innocent dinner-time remark, "It tasted
good, even if it was spinach,” draw’s from her
an astounding lecture on food products, rela
tive food values, methods of cooking, diets for
babies and grown-ups—and so on even unto
why an apple a day keeps the doctor away.
Mr. Average Man wonders at woman’s in
terest in many things which seem just a bit
technical He forgets that woman, particularly
the woman of family, must be a pioneer for
her family’s sake.
She must seize on new food ideas—her fam
ily’s health demands it.
She must study new automotive equipment,
new motor fuels—family economy demands it.
So this woman who uses the family motor
car to take the husband to work, the children
to school, to go to market, to go shopping, to
go a-pleasuring, exercises the same care in se
lecting her car’s motor fuel that she exercises
in selecting her family’s food. Hence her
choice of Humble Flashlifce G«ofcne. Beono
my and efficiency demand k.
For the discerning woman, who knows and
wants the best, especially when she can get it
at the price that is charged for ordinary prod
ucts, nothing will take the place of Humble
Flashlike Gasoline. That is why today you
see at stations displaying the Humble signs an
ever-increasing number of cars—and, if you
will look a little closer, you will find that
most of the drivers 2re women.
You may not be interested in the technical
■distribution or laboratory analysis of Humble
Flashlike Gasoline, but everyone who drive®
a car is interested in how the product acts in
the motor. The specifications given below
describe the technical make-up of this product
in everyday terms. It will pay you to study
these specifications and make them the basis
on which you buy your gasoline.
