CAMP PA|GN AGAINST
TUBERCULOSIS ON
SOCIETY FOR ITS PREVENTION
SAYS "ITs CONTROL DEPENDS
ON SOCIAL WORKERS."
ESTABLISH LOCAL SOCIETIES
Pennsylvania Dispensaries Give No
Medicine If 1t Can be Avoided
Patients Wait Until Too
Far Advanced.

Washington, D. C.-"The control of
tuberculosis in this country depends in
large measure upon the success of So
cial workers In each community in
gathering together in an effective or
ganization physicians and officials on
the one hand and large numbers of ef-
ficient laymen on the other"
This was the declaration Tuesday of
Wallace Hatch, executive secretary of
the Pennsylvania Society for the Pre-
vention of tuberculosis in an address
on "The Responsibility of the Social
Worker in the Campaign Against
tuberculosis" at the New National
Museum. The occasion was known as
the social workers day and in the
absence of Ernest P. Bicknell, national
director of the Red Cross society, who
was to have presided, Richard
Beamish of Philadelphia acted as
chairman. DR.. Thomas II. A. Sites,
director of the Pennsylvania state dis
pensary system of Harrisburg, Pa,
told of the work of that organization.
eve need to establish small anti
tuberculosis society in every social,
fraternal and business organization
which can be reached" said Mr..
Hatch. This may seem tremendous
undertaking and the results. ,EIay LOT
seem to justify the effec+s, out the eA
tent of our proElen4ts such that we
can scarcely do less" He declared
that Pennsylvania has one of the most
vigorous health departments in the
country and one which is beginning to
show enviable results. Mr.. Hatch told
of the effective work accomplished
during the past year against tubercu-
losis in Pennsylvania by the Pennsyl-
vania Society for the Prevention of
tuberculosis, the oldest organization
of its kind in the world. Summarized
the society has established a bureau of
information; organized an employment
exchange; conducted 649 formal talks
and lectures; distributed 10000 leaf
let's of instruction.; secured the CO.
operative help of over $50 organiza-
tions; opened two tuberculosis classes
and one dispensary; gathered tuber-
culosis exhibit which has been demon
strated in IA towns and cities before
1925 people and established anti
tuberculosis societies in six cities and
towns.
DR.. Sites said that at the Pennsyl
vania dispensaries no medicine is
given If it can be avoided. Fresh air,
sunlight and rest are the means of
cure. The difficulties encountered in
dispensary work, said the speaker, are
that patients wait until they are too
far advanced for cure before they ap-
ply for treatment.

OLD FRIEND IN CAMPAIGN.
Mr.. Bryan Comes to the Front with q
Familiar Note.

When Mr.. Bryan at Wilmington
charged the steel trust with financing
Mr.. Taft he sounded a familiar note.
He did the expected. We feared that
this was to be campaign without
bogie; that, possibly, the Commoner's
imagination had suffered from over
strain. We are glad our fears are un-
of his imaginative faculties.
OF course, it does not matter that
this latest product C Mr.. Bryan's fer.
tile imagination has no existence in
fact That is aside the point. 1t is
sufficient for his purposes that it fits
into his theories. He has ALWAYS 5cen
great theorizer. He is the only man
who has specific for every social i'll.
But the people, for some reason, have
not shared his confidence in their eff.
fectiveness. His promises were too
vague, too uncertain, and, besides, he
changed them so often. For instance,
one of Mr. Bryan's theories is that the
United States Steel corporation has
been accorded immunity and in return
1t has promised to finance the Repub-
lican campaign. Here we have the
characteristic Bryanic argument, for
upon analysis this charge resolves
itself into merely an expression of
opinion He presents no proof. Mr..
Bryan knows this. But he hopes by
vehement gestures, by seeming earn
estness, to so befog his hearers that
they will believe that expressions Of
opinion are synonymous with state
ments of fact Such methods are too
transparent to be convincing; they
defeat their own purpose. But Mr..
Bryan does not realize it. He is sin
cere in his beliefs, but mere sincerity
will not avail unless it carries con-
fidence. And that is something Mr..
Bryan has never inspired.

REVIEW OF TRADE.
Many Undertakings are Postponed Un-
til After Election.

New York City.-R. G.. Dun e
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Substantial progress toward indus.
trial recovery was made during the
past week, a very large number of
wage earners resuming work in mills
and factories that had been wholly or
partially idle for many months. Yet
resumption is by no means uniform.
many undertakings being deferred I'M
til after election, and low water is
still the cause of short time at numer-
Gus plants. Retail trade at many
points has decreased, although some
sections note q satisfactory distribu-
tion of fall and winter wearing ap-
parel, and payments are little more
prompt
Contracts for finished steel are re-
stricted to current needs, but large
tonnage is under negotiation. New
projects are deferred until election,
when much business will be placed.
Confidence is shown by the steadiness
of prices and the gradual increase in
pig iron for production.
Stocks of dry goods are low almost
beyond precedent.

EXPECT TO PAY ALL CLAIMS
Creditor Bankers Decide to Sell the
Property of A. Booth & Co.,
Fish Dealers.

Chicago, Ill.-Indication that United
States District Attorney Sims would
begin action under the Sherman
antitrust law against A. Booth G. Co.,
in the evening of its reorganization,
caused the creditor bankers commit
tee to reject the reorganization pro-
posal of w. Vernon Booth and to de-
eide to sell the property of the cor
poration in every state at it's physical
valuation.
Mr.. Booth proposed to reorganize
the corporation by placing $2,000,000
of new capital in the company, while
the stockholders would contribute ST.
100000 more. After eight hours de-
liberation the committee rejected the
proposal, From the sale of the prop.
erty held by the corporation the cred
itors expect to pay all claims held by
Chicago and eastern banks and pay
about 100 cents ON the dollar to the
5000 minor creditors.
Immediately after the appointment

TO BRYAN
MR.. TAFT MAKES NEW TURN IN
CANVASS.
People to Judge Between Man of Ac-
complishment and One of Alb
surd Promises and Exploded
paramount Issues"

The most effective statement yet
made In the present campaign is that
of Mr.. Taft. in reply to Mr.. Bryan's
criticism of the Roosevelt letter re-
lating to the Republican nominee.
This statement marks new turn in
the canvass. 1t may be said that Mr..
Taft has finally struck his gait. From
this time on there will be something
doing when Mr.. Taft discusses Mr..
Bryan.
There is no possibility that the
present campaign viii DE marked by
unseemly personalities. Both candi-
dates are men of clean characters. But
in the absence of great, dominating
issues the personalities Of the two
candidates, and especially their rec
ords-the one as performer and the
other as theorist-will play an un-
usually important part in the cam
paign.
Mr.. Bryan has forced the fighting
from the first. He has done his ut
most to discredit the record and the
pledges of the Republican candidate.
He has gone out of his way to belit-
tie what others have said of the
achievements of Mr.. Taft. Finally Mr..
Taft has replied with broadside that
will give Mr.. Bryan something to
think about for few days.
All this was both interesting and H.
Illuminating. The people like spirited
presidential canvass. They like good
fighters. Mr.. Taft is a good fighter
and he is an honest fighter. In this
particular encounter, Mr.. Bryan, not
Mr.. Taft. will be put on the defen-
sive.
Mr.. Taft's life has been full of Ia
Dor and accomplishment. He has u
record that he may confidently sub
NIT to the people. Ordinarily a man
who has no official record is at an adj
vantage in political contest, provid-
ed he can make the people believe his
promises. But the majority has never
believed in Mr.. Bryan's promises, and
the explosion and abandonment of his
several paramount issue of the past
are not calculated to increase public
confidence.
In this beginning of the real Taft
Bryan contest the first thing that Mr..
Taft has done has been to call the at
tention of the spectators to Mr.. Bry-
ans fighting methods. 1t is to be
hoped that in the future Mr. Bryan
will be as fair as Mr.. Taft has bees,.
The public likes an honest observance

The last trace of connection be-
tween the famous East India Company
and the government of India disap-
peared when Sir Philip Hutchins re-
tired from membership in the council
of India on July 81, this year-50
years, within two days, from the date
of the passage of the act transferring
control of East Indian affairs to the
British crown. Sir Philip entered the
old company In 1857, and was en-
ployed in its civil service in Madras,
where he continued after the transfer
of control. He rose to responsible po-
sitions in India until he was called
home as secretary of the judicial de-
partment of the India Office. He was
made one of the members of the coun-
Gil of India in 1898, the body which ad-
vises the secretary for India in the
cabinet, in his administration of the
Indian empire. All other men who
had been employed by the old COM
pany had disappeared from the India
office, and for the last nine months of
his tenure Sir Philip was the sole sur
viving servant of the old regime. AL
though it's political power ceased in
1858, the East India Company itself
did not go out of existence until 1874.

Republicans and Prosperity.

Under this head the extremely Re-
publican st. Louis Globe Democrat
speaks of the prosperity placards
which Mr.. Kern emphasized and says
because they would give the Demo
Gratis a chance to cry blackmail they
are unwise. But it adds:
"The story which they tell is true
The election of Bryan would be
calamity to the country, even though
the Republican senate would tie his
hands. A Bryanite victory would send
down American stocks on every bourse
in the world in which they are bought
and sold and would be blow at Amer
lean intelligence, as we'll as at Ameri-
can financial credit. Shares of all
sorts on our own exchanges would i'm.
mediately drop. Those big orders for
rails and general railway equipment
which are said to be held off until aft
er the election would be withdrawn
indefinitely. Messrs. Bryan and Kern
may rail at these conditions, but the
things which have cast discredit upon
them and their party are known to all
the world, and neither their entreaties
nor their imprecations will alter the
situation in the slightest degree"

LIVING PICTURES Of TIE PAST
WE'RE SHOWN IN AN HISTORICAL
PAGEANT AT PHILADELPHIA.
Quaker City's Celebration of Found.
ers' Week Ended with a Re-
markabIe Display.

Philadelphia, Pa.-Like pages out
OF the past, torn from the great
book Of history and laden with the
memories of 225 years, the living
scenes of the first great historical
pageant ever planned in this country
were unfolded Friday before a con.
course of 100000 people. In this
drama of the centuries, the culminat-
ing feature of Philadelphias celebra-
ton of founders week, there were s.
600 men and women in costume
There were 20 mammoth floats faith
full to the last detail in their portrayal
OF the scenes selected from the long
span of years.
All the romance, all the legendry,
all the rugged history of the days of
long ago We're grouped in this notable
display. People fought to get a
glimpse of it and hundreds of women
the congested corners. Every ambu-
lance in the city was brought into play
and every hospital was filed The
eight miles of grand stands. covering
practically every foot on either side
of the route traversed by the pageant
were fairly stormed by ticket holders
while spectators reaped a harvest at
exorbitant prices.
Following the scenes of early set
tlement there came the period of Will
liam Penn and the Quakers. Benjamin
Franklin soon followed Penn upon the
scene. 1t was not long until the spec
tators found themselves gazing upon
Washington, Jefferson, Lafayette, John
Paul Jones and Rochambeau in their
patriotic activities. They looked upon
Betsy Ross as she toiled upon the
flag, they saw the voting upon the Dec
flaration of Independence In the old
state house; they saw the Virginians
coming to congress with Washington.
Jefferson and Patrick Henry at their
head; they saw the New Englanders
arrive with John Adams, John Han
cock, Samuel Adams and Robert Treat
Paine riding in the lead, and then, out
of all this pageantry of make-believe,
there came touch of real history
1t was the old Liberty bell. On a
carefully guarded truck and partly
buried in straw, the old relic was
shown as it was being hurried away
to Allentown in hay wagon for safe
keeping in 1777.
On the heels of the departing bell
came the entrance OF the British
troops into Philadelphia under Sir
William Howe and Lord CORVALLIS,
both of whom were pictured in the
parade. The advent of the relocated
troops was an imposing feature of the
spectacle. There were about 1000
we'll drilled men in line and all were
ccstumed in the period of the revolu-
ton.
Following this came the march of
.Ae Americans to Yorktown. Another
thousand men made up the Cont.
mental troops. Rochambeau and the
French allies, in resplendent uniforms.
added further interest to the revolu-
tionary period.
The period of the civil war gave an
other opportunity for military display

Hymn-Writers.

1t Is an American habit for the fam.
week and sing hymns, each member
calling for his favorites among the so
or more which he knows by heart OF
all forms of literature, the words of
hymns have the widest appeal, and the
ordinary man can remember more
hymn-tunes than all the other COM
plete tunes he can muster. The hymn
writer Is thus the most popular of all
artists who express themselves in
words and melodies. Yet he frequently
remains obscure. The people who
know his songs do not remember him.
Even persons who know the words
and the music of scores of hymns will
confess that they never looked in the
hymnal to see who wrote them. 1t
was the good fortune of the late Ira
d. Sankey that his manly voice and
enthusiastic personality were associ-
ated with his tunes. No doubt the
extra heartiness with which people
usually break forth into Sankey
hymn is due to the fact that so many
have heard him lead them. The quail
ty of Sankey's work is indicated In
the story Of the beginning Of his alli
ance with Moody. 1t is said that
Moody heard him leading a revival
hymn at a religious convention, and
asked in excitement who he was. A
neighbor told him, and expressed ed
miration for his fine voice. don't
know anything abor: his fine voice."
replied Moody, but l do know that
he feels every word he sings and be-
lieves every word he feels" Sankey
was doer as well as singer of the
Word, says the Youths Companion.
He responded to Lincoln's first call for
volunteers. At the end of his life he
was afflicted with blindness and Ill
health, but he kept his fervent spirit.
And the income from his published
work went largely to religious institu-
tions.

A Collision at Sea.

San Francisco, Cal.-The steamer
Norwood was towed into this
port Friday in a waterlogged condi-
ton by the Asuncion. Capt Martin
of the Norwood reports that during a
dense fog the Norwood was struck
by the steamer Asuncion and cut be-
low the water line. Tie Norwood be-
came waterlogged in 20 minutes. Her
boats were lowered and two women,
two children, 13 male passengers and
part of the crew put aboard them.
The boats were picked up by the
