The Churches and tuberculosis

In commencing editorialy on the
movement for the observance of "Tu-
berculosis Day" in the churches throu-
ghout the state, the Breckenridge News
offers a valuable suggestion as fol-
lows:
1.-The first move that some of the min
listers ought to make about this great
problem is to ventilate the houses of
worship in which they preach, or see to
it that it is properly done at every SER
vice. No better sermon could be prea-
ched than lowering the windows at the
top. Half the time during the winter
months janitors of many churches never
raise window. The auditoriums and
Sunday school rooms should be tho
roughly aired as well as swept and
busted. Pure air, we think, is more
vital than cleanliness to a mans spirit
ual welfare. A dusty bench would not
hinder a man from getting religion,
but in church where the air is stale
and sitting man with religion is pref
ty apt to lose what little he has"
Dr. Woods Hutchinson, in some of
his recent lecturers has remarked some
what sarcastically on the "dm religi-
Gus light" of many of our churches
wherein deadly germs hold high car
nival. With all the preaching and
teaching about the Importance of fresh
air as an aid to human health, it is
much to be regretted that in many of
the churches and public buildings there

in the midst of an interesting discourse
They do not understand why they have

they attend church. About nine times
out OF ten the drowsiness, the headache
and the tired feeling are the result of
the Impure air that is regliously kept
in building. Most church janitors
and many of the ministers and com.
munieants as well, seem to have a holy
horror of fresh air.
