RATE OF FRANCE
—
PARIS.—France’s declining birth
rate has lately been a source of
much concern, but a distinct im
provement has been noticed during
the past two months.
Evidence of a great decline in
births in 1918 was shown in official
figures for the district of the Seine,
which includes the city of Paris,
which showed that there were only
43,480 births registered in that dis
trict in 1918. as compared with
73.599 in 1911.
The infantile death rate given by
statisticians is 40 percent, as com
pared with 10 percent before the
war. This has been attributed to
the scarcity of wet-nurses and the
poor quality and shortage of milk
for bottle-fed babies. This short
age is said to be due to the tre- j
mendous increase in cheese making,
especially in Normandy.
! However, all the maternity hos-!
pitals in Paris reported increased j
births in August and September. ;
In one hospital the number has dou- ,
bled that of las: year, and it is de
clared the babies are remarkable for
size, weight, and general health. A
new periodica! entitled '•Marriage”
has just appeared. It announces
that it will devote itself to the
question of the repopulation of
France, which is generally recog
nized to be one of the most urgent
problems of the day. It asks its
I readers ‘'What means should be
: adopted to combat the present mat
rimonial crisis in France?”

DANCERS MUST PAY
TAX IN CALIFORNIA
LOS ANGELELS. — Those who
dance in this federal district here
after will pay not only the piper,
but John C. Carter, collector of in
terna! revenue, as well.
According to Mr. Carter, dance
halls, which heretofore have paid a
riat 10 percent amusement tax on
the gross business done, will here
after pay a tax of 10 percent on
each ticket purchased.
Many dancehalis have been sell
ing ••commutation" tickets in books,
and one tax was collected on the
gross amount received for the books.
As an example, one hall sold a
book of 13 tickets for 25 cents
On this a tax of three cents was
paid. Hereafter similar books will
cost 3» cents each.
A CHILLY REMINDER

and robes. Have them mended and
cleaned at moderate prices, before
winter sets in, by
