GOOD WORK is PROGRESSING
Women in Every State Join Earnestly
In Campaign Against Tu-
berculoss.

Four years ago the only active WON
en- workers in the anti-tuberculosis
movement were little group of about
80 women's clubs. Today 100000
women, under the United States, are
banded together against this disease,
and more than 1000 clubs are taking
a special interest in the crusade. Not
less than 100000 is raised annually
by them for tuberculosis work, be-
sides millions that are secured through
their efforts in state and municipal
appropriations. Mrs. Rufus P. Will
liams is the chairman of the depart
ment that directs this work. In adj
dition to the work of the General Fed
Grafton of Women's Clubs, the Public
Health Education committee of the
American Medical association, COM
posed largely of women physicians,
has carried on an educational cam
paign of lectures during the past year
in which thousands have been reached.
The Mothers congress, the Young
Women's Christian association, and
many unattached clubs bring the num-
Der of women united in the tuberculo-
sis war to well over million. There
is not a state in the union where some
work has not been done.

Attempt to Stop Infantile Paralysis

the disease is often fatal, it's appal-
ling feature is that many children af-
fected are permanently crippled or
deformed, robbed of speech or hear
ing. In a word, infantile paralysis is
not slaughter but a mutilation of
the innocents. The disease common
ly attacks children under five years
of age, but occasionally an adult Is its
victim.
It's shining mark at this minute in
the east is William Hinrich, a pitch
er of the Washington American league
in Washington, and his entire right
baseball team. He is in hospital
arm is paralyzed. At the present time
there are over 500 cases of the dis
ease in Washington alone, while Phil.
adelphia and New York city reports
even greater numbers. Nothing Is
known of the cause of the disease 9TH
er than that it is believed to come
from a germ, but even these have
not yet been found. The disease usu-
ally appears during June, reaches its
greatest prevalence during July and
August and SUBSIDIES in SEPTEMBER.

Why He Was Sorry.

To impress on young children just
what should and what should not be
done and why, is among the most try
ing problems of parents, as evidenced
by the recent experience of a West
Philadelphia mother. Last Sunday
she asked her small son, aged eight, to
carry chair for her from the dining
room to the parlor. He started off
willingly, but in the hall he tripped
and fell Amid the crash could be
heard the boy giving vent to utter
ances that would have done credit to
a pirate of ancient days. The mother
was taken by surprise and was greatly
shocked. She gave the boy long
and serious talk on the subject of pro-
family. This apparently did not make
the right impression, for when she
concluded the boy adder to her dis
comf1ture by exclaiming, IT am sorry
swore, mamma. but I forgot 1t was

One Record Made BY Women.

Through the activity of women, in
the anti-tuberculosis campaign, sana-
toria and hospitals for the treatment
Of tuberculosis have been erected ;
travelling libraries have been circu.
lated, posters, circulars and other
kinds of literature have been distrib-
uted to the number of millions OF
pieces, thousands Of lectures have
been given, large sums of money have
been secured, hundreds of needy cases
have been helped; tuberculosis work
has been started in many communi.
ties where no movement had existed (;
and millions of women have learned
the dangers and methods of proven
ton of tuberculosis. The work of the
women extends from the drawing-room
of the rich to the homes of the poor,
and embraces all classes, including the
factory girl and millionaire. During
the coming year special campaign of
lectures to women will be carried on
in all parts of the United States.
