An Excellent Example For
Pensacola to Follow.

! The fact that the citizens of New
Orleans have undertaken an active
, organized campaign against tubercu-
losis should serve as an incentive to
those of Pensacola and other cities
The following from the States of that
city speaks for itself:
Next Monday, April ), the ladies OF
the Anti-Tuberculosis League propose
| to inauguTate an active and system
! attic campaign for the collection of a
fund to carry on the fight against
The Great White Plague" The or
ganiZatiOn for that purpose is one of
the most thorough ever perfected in
this city and the plans are so well ar
ranged that every house, indeed, every
individual, Will be visited and asked to
make some contribution to the good
cause. From the 500, 1000 inhabitants
of this city it is hoped to get enough
money to do here what has been done
elsewhere, and to take every needful
step to check the progress of tubeT-
CUlOSiS and in time to root it out.
The work interests every one, whether
or not he or she has any relative suf-
feTing with the disease. for as long as
the maIady fingers here, as long as
the victims of tuberculosis mix freely
with others, the danger of its spread
is great. Especially is this the case
with the negroes, who do so much of
the domestic work of New Orleans,
nursing, washing, cooking, etc, and
on whom. because of their ignorance
of sanitation, tuberculosis has taken
so firm a grip, and mas, indeed, rapid
" spread It IS needless to point QUO
TO the whites that tuberculosis among
the negroes is a threat to them also;
and we must do all we can to help
these people in their ignorance.
Of course Pensacola is not a city OF
SOC, 900 population, or anything like It;
but it must be remembered that for
that very reason it will take a great
deal less money to conduct a cam
paign here than in New Orleans. In
fact, the item of expense must in
crease not in direct proportion to the
increased size of population but at a
much more complicated in denseIy
populated areas than in those more
spar5eIy settled
knowing scientifically all We do at
present concerning the cure and pre-
ventiOn or the terrible scourge, il
would indeed be astonishing, should
the people of Florida's cities fail TO
make financial provision to carry on
the war. This Is especially true when
the fact is taken into consideration
that with our climate and abundance
Of free breathing space such a war
will be comparatively inexpensive.
