worcester. founder of the Emmanuel
movement In Boston. DR.. Marquis
would assist those who are unable 10
so TO sanitariums because they cannot
pay even nominal fees. and because
they are bread winners and must work
until almost ready TO expire. The doc
tor says that absolute rest and freedom
from anNtety are essential to a cure
for tuberculosis. and, therefore, those
10 be assisted must be furnished with
SUFFICIENT means to relieve them until q
cure is effected. DR.. Marquis says also
that IL would be necessary to build III
tie cottages In back yards or perhaps
on the sloptng roofs OF houses, but ne
wants to demonstrate that tuberculosis
can be cured even in the sfums. An
