ADVERTISING TUBERCULOSIS

Excellent work is being done by
physicians in all parts OF the country
in blotting ont the white plague"
All that the science of medicine now
knows is being applied freely. and
much research is going OH to learn
more about the disease and to find a
more specific cure. The discovery OF
such Specific" is the immediate
object of a chair of experimental medi-
cine recently established at North
western University. which is richly
endowed by James A. Patten.
Many hospitals and outdoor camps
have been established for those af-
fected by the uberculosis-alsO
known as consumption. AS a means
of prevention, some effort has been
spent in general education, and in this
field lies larger. much larger. possibi-
ties.
Men who devote their time To the
writing of advertisements or the direc-
ton of advertising or publicity cam
paigns call themselves professional
men. And none will question the
fairness and accuracy OF the classifi-
cation. The doctor. lawyer. or other
professional man is looked upon as
a person who willingly sacrifices
everything for the accomplishment of
something which will benefit human
ty as whole it is a quality which
distinguishes the rank.
If the business brains which are now
worked overtime to inform the peo-
pie of the good qualities of some
breakfast food. were devoted TO a
campaign OF education in the means
Of preventing tuberculosis, would ii
not be OF great benefit to the people
and worthy tribute to the profes-
sion of advertising experts?

GOOD ROADS IN BOONE.

Transportation facilities or access
ibility of land determine almost Who'll
ly its vare. with given population
or demand for land. A thousand acres
a hundred miles from a railroad is
worth practically nothing in this
day of rapid transpOrtatiOn-ex-
cept as an investment because of
hope for a railroad in the future. With
the smaller farm, the value changes
almost inversely with the distance
from market. And distance from
a market means a measure of time
as well as of space If the farmer
is four hours from town, il doesn't
make much difference to him in dol
lars and cents whether he spends the
four hours on four miles of road or
on fourteen miles-he is four hours
from market just the same.
The distance in miles of Boone
County farms from markets is fixed
absolutely. But the distance from
market measured in time may
be changed much by improved
roads. If by improving roads, a farm
er brings himself an hour nearer mar
keith all sorts of weather-the value
had moved the farm so much nearer
town on the original road.

AS A SUMMER RESORT

Going away from home doesn't nee
essarily mean a person is to have a
pleasant summer; there are many
places worse than Columbia, even
when the mercury gets up closer to
the hundred mark. In fact, there are
a whole lot of alleged summer resorts
that are not half so pleasant and COM
Portable as Columbia.
Most persons go TO a city or town,
usually on a lake or seashore, without
knowing whether the water supply OF
the city is good or bad; they live in
houses without knowing the condi-
tions in the neighbOrhOOd which
make for sanitation-thcy even sleep
in rooms that are poorly ventilated
and not properly cleaned. Just so it's
a summer resort, they're satisfied; the
name is enough.
The pure milk movement in Colhhl-
bia the last few months adds I'M
measurably to its healihfulnesG e&pec-
tally in summer The city water
is scarcely eqnalled i'll quality by
the water in any Other city. II
the meat del is cut down one,
half until after hot weather. there
would be- less trOnble sleeping through
The hot nights. And the fly-swatter
is as Seryiceabls in preserving health
as il is in preventing annoyance.
And besides the natural advantage:
of Columbia, 10 those who live here
their homes are domains over which
they are absolute despOts: if a man
is more comfortable in his shirt
sleeves and bare feet, that's his priv
lege.

JUVENILE COURTS.

Recently a l2.year-Old negro boy,
arrested on trivil charge, was con-
fined in the same cell in the Boone
County Jail with three adult prison
ers At least one of them was a
hardened criminal This was no fault
of any of the Boone County officers
the fault lies in the law. The Jail
was crowded at the time; otherwise
the boy might have been placed in a
separate cell
This is one OF many similar cases
that have arisen where there are not
juvenile courts and houses of deten-
tion for youths Methods applicable
to adult criminals are totally our of
place in the case of children. Effort
should be centered on leading and
training the latter class Of viOlators
out of the way OF crime. Retaliatory
punishment must be abandoned and
everything subOrdinated to their ref
ormatiOn.
Missouri has juvenile courts in four
or five Of her largest cities. Other

practically the same as are adult prison.
ers or hardened criminals. There was
an effort made at the last meeting of
the legislature To have a law passed
giving counties of more than 81, 900 in
habitanrs the authority to establish
these courts. No action was taken on
the bill.

the time intervening and this same
bill returned at the next meeting of
the General Assembly, there is reason
