The idea to be advanced is that no

Inauguration of the effective head of

an attraction as the browning OF po-
tentates who at the best, 1t is de-
clared, are rapidly going out of fash

greater number than ever to Wash
ington, and to interest the whole
country In the important quadrennial
event, 1T is declared. the. program
must be extended over period OF
more than a single day.
Already the idea of changing the date
and setting aside at least four days for
the observance of inaugural events has
gone over the country. and numerous
letters are being received here inqulrlnS
as to the work in hand.
The suggestions OF the local committees
are that the first day shall be set aside
for the Inauguration Of the President,
who Is to be escorted from the Capitol
by the inaugural committee and a limited
number of picked troops, to be followed
in the evening by a grand ball and
number of concerts.
Second day-Parade of West Point ca

their review by the President and Vice
President At night grand ball to the
Vice President and concerts.
Third day--A parade of the naval ca
diets. Marine Corps and fraternal organ
izations, to be reviewed by the Presl-
dent. At night a grand ball and operas.
Fourth day-A parade of historical and

guished guests. At night grand Dali

CRAWFORD, v. j., November H.
The segregation OF all tuberculosis pa
tients on an island at sea was suggested
by DR. Harvey w Wiley, chief of the
bureau OF chemistry, in an address here
tonight under the auspices of the Gram
ford Village Improvement Association.
1--WE must give the state power to
stamp out tuberculosis and authority
to segregate every Infectious and con-
tagiouS disease. said DIR. Wiley.
Every man, woman and child who
dies of a preventable disease is either
a suicide or victim of murder. Thor
ough state supervision and regulation
is the only solution of the problem"
Every person here tonight Will die be-
fore he ought to unless there are more
concerted efforts for the conservation or
public health, continued DR.. Wiley.
Public health is more valuable than all
other national resources. If more women
were taught properly how to use the
cookStoVe, instead of the piano, America
would be better off.
