AS an indication of the force of the
crusade against tuberculosis, the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention Of tuberculosis, in bull.
letin issued recently points to the fact
that while 53.5 per cent. of the ex-
penditures for tuberculosis in 1909
were made from public resources, ap-
preparations made for 1910 Indicate
that over rs per cent. of the money
to be spent this year will be from fed

1909, out of the $S,1S0,6 21.5O spent for
the prevention and treatment of tu-
berculosis, s4,362,750O3 was spent
from public money, and s3,S17,S71.47

For the carrying on of state, federal
and municipal tuberculosis work in

during his lifetime.
The honor of having originated the public OBJ
servance of February % is of which the town
of Alexandria, Va, is jealousy proud. Alexandria
was Washington's county town. He attended
church there; he voted and paid taxes there;
his physician lived there he bought Of its trades
men, contributed to it's charities, head of it's
Masonic lodge, organized it's fire brigade.
Washington and Alexandria either contradict
the theory that prophet is not appreciated at
home they are exception to prove the rule.
Right after the close of the revolution Alexandria
began to celebrate the birthday of her hero.
Perhaps the cid town had acquired the habit,
for the brthnight balls in honor of King George
had been the climax Of social functions under the
old regime. At any rate allegiance
more ardently transferred and the new birthnight
balls became even more elaborate than the old.
Alexandria having set the fashion, other
places took up the custom. In 1884 the French
officers who had served under Washington cele-
brated February % in Paris that is to say, 1t
not then February 49, but, according to the
reckoning of that day. February II.
While he was president the birthday al
ways celebrated at the city which the capt.

performances at the theaters and a ball which
the president and his wife attended.

delphia enlivened by the fact that many Of

the PRESIDENT" On these occasions the presi-
dent and Mrs. Washington conducted to
sofa placed under a canopy. The president did
not stay there much but moved about among the
other guests with the dignifed courtesy which
always marked him in society
On his birthday in 1897 he and Mrs. Washing
ton in Philadelphia. The ships in the har-
Dor were dressed with flags and the houses
decorated. Every half hour the church bells rang.
Government officials and foreign diplomats
called to congratulate him. The ball at night was
in the amphitheater, specially hoored and deco
rated There were about 500 guests and accord
ing to an eye witness "every countenancc be-
spoke pleasure and appreciation; even Democrats
forgot for moment their enmity."
The next year. 1893, Washington attended the
celebration given by his friends and neighbors
at Alexandria and some accounts declare that it
was the last time he did He at Mount
Vernon in 1895 on his birthday 1t being the
sion of one of the greatest festivities in the his
tory OF the mansion, the marriage of Nelly Gus
tbs. The ceremony performed at early
candlelight in the banquet room and was attend
ed by the gentefolk from all the country around.
In spite of the wedding, however, Washington
seems to have slipped away for look in on the
dongs at Alexandria; for there is an account Of
that celebration in an old copy OF the Alexandria
Gazette in which his presence is mentioned. The
great event of that particular day was sort Of
sham attack on the town by three companies of
local infantry They were embarked the
armed schooners Neptune, Trial and Mercury and
succeeded in making two landings, but after "a
heavy and continuous street fighting" finally
compelled to surrender
The general had arrived soon after the affair
began and when the evolutons were closed he
presented his highest respects to all the parties
engaged in them" Apparently being due for the
wedding eight miles distant, he did not remain
for any Of the dinners which followed and at
which so extreme number of toasts were drunk
that trembles at the thought of how the
youthful soldiers acquitted themselves at the ball
in the evening.
That was the last of his birthdays which
Washington himself lived to celebrate, but his
home town faithfully continued the custom.

sumptuous provision enjoyed with much
hilarity, tempered however, with moderation
Besides the birthnight balls there was another
feature of the early celebrations in Alexandra
which was peculiar to that town. Washington
had founded an orphan asylum there and when
on his birthday there would be meeting, with
an orator, in of the churches, the orphans
conspicuously present and came IN for

meeting in 1910 says that after the Grafton col
