healthy sign than this. And then, too,
the old New England and thoroughly
democratic spirit was evidenced by the
little touch OF discussion, which, while
not approaching too closely degree OF

forbearance on the part Of very few
who did not care to hear and sought
to interfere with noisy demonstration.

4 STEP IN 4 GREAT WORK.

The Incorporation of the Vermont
Sanatorium" for treatment of those af-
hicted with tuberculosis is the third
step in the fulfillment of that which has
been the hope Of Vermonters for many
years, the previous steps having been
the splendid gift OF Senator Proctor and
the selection Of the site OF the sana-
forum at Pittsford, in Rutland county
From this time on, the work Of con
structing the buildings will probably be
pushed rapidly to its complexion. The
purposes OF the corporations, as outlined
in the papers just filed, are Ito establish
and maintain for the benefit of the peo-
pie of Vermont sanatorium for the
care and treatment of tuberculosis, to
encourage and aid all efforts put forth
for the suppressing and prevention OF
tuberculosis and TO do all things lawful
TO accomplish the cure and prevent the
spread of said disease" The ineorpo
rators state that the sanatorium is not
for the purposes Of gain, but that it
is charitable institution, having no
capital stock. The governing board is
not less than fifteen, nor more than
twenty one, members, and is self-per.
petuating.
Before another year this institution
should be open for patients and be doing
the great work which has been mapped
out for it. The founding of this insti.
tuition is really the enteing wedge which
promises to arrest the progress of the
disease of tuberculosis in this state.
The state tuberculosis commission has
been doing a commendable work, but
it has been handicapped by the lack of
the opportunity for practical demonstra.
ton.
