CHURCH LEADS 3
IN WAR ON CONSUMPTION

Within the past four months the
churches of over 100 different cities
in the United States, all the prin-
cipal cities in the United States,
all the principal religious denom-
nations, and several interdenom-
national societies, have united in
campaign against consumption,
according to a statement issued by
the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of Tubercu-
losis.
Notable campaigns have been
conducted by the allied churches
of New York, Brooklyn. Pittsburg,
st. Paul, Milwaukee, Washington,
Chicago, Providence, Baltimore,
Trenton, Seattle. Philadelphia and
many other cities. In most of these
places a special Sunday has been
set aside on which sermons about
tuberculosis have been preached in
the various churches. So success
full has been this method Of declar-
ing the gospel of fresh air, that it
is being adopted by pastors all
over the country.
In several of the larger religious
denominations definite resolutions
by some of the local ministerial or
CARNATIONS, allying these associa-
lions with the tuberculosis move
ment, have been adopted.
Foremost in the fight against
consumption is the Roman Cath
Ollie church. In this church, under
the direction of Archbishop Ryan
