 One of the interesting recommenda- tions made by Prof. Fisher in his pa- per last night was that in view of the gravity of the situation, every ne- gro church, school, secret society, business and social organization, should by suitable resolutions, or oth- CT appropriate actions, petition every school board in Arkansas and ask that "The Cause, Cure and Prevention of Tuberculosis be made part of the course of study in every negro school in the state, and that it be. given ma jor weight in all school curriculas.
 If this is done, the negro children all over the state will be prepared early to fight the disease.
