Our own communi- ty. because it covers two races, which must be treated separately is face to face with the necessity of establishing a san atorium for white and a sanatorium for coored tuberculosis patients. This with the simple end in view of making their existence as pleasant as may be and pro- tectng others from infection by them
 I therefore suggest as a matter of im- mediate moment the erection by the coun- ty. or by the city of a sanatorium to hold not less than POO white patients who have passed beyond the incipent stage of the disease, and another sanatorium with means of caring for not less than 90 col ored people in similar condition. The cost of caring for such patients is not neces- sarily as great that of building up the constitution of those who can be cured; but 1t certainly ought to include ade
 quate provision for the physicians and nurses, that there may be no neglect in any instance. and that the most rigid sanitary and hygienic provisions may be enforced. It would seem that the loca- ton of such sanatoria is not a matter of first importance; opinions may differ whether 1t should be in the city close by the homes where the disease has origi- mated, or away out in some rural sur roundings We have the provision of a city ordinance requiring the reporting of all cases and further provision requir- ing the segregation of those who are so circumstanced as to become a peril; but it is very evident that this ordinance can not reach fruitful results unless we have accommodations for such segregation. somewhere to send the sick.
