Permanent Chairman Henry Cabot
Lodge called the convention TO order AT
1917 o'clock when the invocation was

report on the platform, also went to the
stage with a ripple Of plaudits follow
ing him.
Although Senator Hopkins is speak
or with excellent cnunciation and clear
resonant voice, making himself audible
throughout the hall, it was a task that
taxed his powers To the utmost. The
roar Of conversation in the convention
swellcd steadily as the senator's voice
grew bit husky and some of the blanks
were not heard clearly by the mass of
the delegates.
The tariff revision plank was not
heard or il it was it was disregardcd en-.
tircly. Not a single handicap followed
as senator Hopkins finished the reading
of that plank. The plunks Immediately
following were given little attention and
were apparently unuoticed by the dele
gates.
The reading Of the platform was con
cludcd at ll.l6.

CURE
IS ANNOUNCED
IN LOUISIANA.
STATE HOME DISCHARGES INMATE
AS FREED FROM DREAD
DISEASE.
ARE CARED FOR BY SISTERS.
Excellent Sanitary Surroundings and
First Class Medical Assistance
the Only Treatment. I,
NOT ISOLATED FROM THE WORLD.

NEW ORLEANS, La, June GA
remarkable medical report touching ON
the cure of leprosy will be presented to
the Louisiana Assembly probably the
week by the Leper home of the state of
Louisiana. IN this report appear the
words:
Discharged, cured-one.
Practically we'll and kept for obser-
vation-tive.'
Briefly explained, the meaning of these
figures is that out of siXty-one lepers at
the Louisiana institution in two years,
six have been practically cured. The
figures are from the biennial report Of
the Leper home. where for over thirteen
years this state has provided place
for lepers to receive the comforts and
the skilled medical care which are not
as Il rule within reach of such sufferers.
y fact of significance is that this re-
port is not submitted to the Assembly as
indicating that any specified cure for
leproSy has been discovered 1t is simp-
ly statement of the results which have
been obtained from giving lepers the
same sanitary surroundings that the
average person enjoys, and an equal
treatment.
Are Not Isolated.
Instead of being isolated, the institu-
ton faces the public highway along the
Mississippi river levee in Iberville par
ish. 1t occupies the Indian plantation,
an estate of about 400 acres. \ row of
modern cottages constitute the lepers'
quarters. \ surgical building and a small
Catholic church complete this group OF
leper buildings. For thirteen years, four
to six Sisters of Charity practically alone
have cared for all the wants Of the lepers
to cooking and sweeping. None of these
sisters ever has become infected with the
disease aud apparently none Of them
fears il.
From children to old people, the ages
Of the patients range from ! to 50.
LeperS Have Freedom.
The degree of freedom enjoyed by
these lepers is startling. There are no
stockadcS, no high fences, no armed
guards, nor even night watchmen to pre-
vent them from escaping at will. 4 vital
recommendation is for money and au-
thOrity 10 place in the home certain lcp-
crs at large in the state.
