Tuberculosis Can Be Prevented.

After ten years Of practical work, the
Tuberculosis Committee has demonstrated
that this disease can be prevented II
scientific measures be employed. The
problern is being attacked In New York
at both ends-by preventing the disease
from developing In children through the
omen air schools and fresh air classes
and also by the segregation Of the dan
gerous advanced cases. from which tu-
berculosis is spread. While the Tuber-
culosis Committee does not Itself conduct
an institution. il works In cooperation
with the Board of Education, the De
partment OF Health and the Department
OF Charities. and supplements their work
where their funds are not adequate, and
helps to support them In their effort 10
secure sufficient money TO carry on their
work. For instance, the Department Of
Education cannot feed and clothe anamic

nnittee. goes for this purpose IN the many
schools now being conducted throughout
,be city. The tuberculosis clinics. both
NJ the city and OF the private hospitals,
need encouragement, support and in
atr1lction. Red Cross seal funds are
used for this purpose. There are I'm
greater New York probably not less than
sixty thousand cases OF tuberculosis. The
present bed capacity OF the hospitals and
sanatoria will hardly provide one bed in
ten for those who need help. The Tu-
berculosls Committee with the aid Of
the Red Cross seal fund. .is working TO
secure additional hospital provision for
those who need II 20 much.
Every dollar that the tuberculosis
Committee spends in Red Cross seals is
multiplied many fold by the fact that IT
secures other dollars. An investment OF
a dollar IN Red Cross seals therefore
VIII bear compound interest. not only
during the year 1913. but during the years
that are 10 come. Every one should DO
his or her part in this campaign by ouy-
Ing Red Cross seals literally.

How One Boy Was Helped.

Tony was an Italian boy who lived in a
tenement house in the Little Italy sec
ton He did not get along we'll In his
classes at'school and one day the medi-
cal inspector and the school nurse dis
covered that Tony was not up to the
standard Of normal boy OF ten years
OF age He was under weight, his blood
was thin, he frequently fell asleep over
his books and. n general, the doctor said
that he was anTmic. The cure for Tony
was lots Of fresh air and plenty Of good
food How 10 get Il was a problem
Right here the tuberculosis Committee
came along and said: Lets put Tony in
an open air school. We will pay for the
cost Of feeding him and we will see that
he gets proper clothing and we Will also
see that he receives the proper care at
home" Tony was accordingly assigned
10 a fresh air class on the roof Of pub
lie school. Within a few days the school
nurse called at Tonys home and found
there a father and mother and six chill
dren living in three rooms in tenement
house. Conditions We're hardly what
might be desired for the Improvement OF
The other children looked weak and
wan. and the mother had a distressing
cough. BY dint OF much persuasion, the
nurse got the mother 20 90 10 one OF the
free tuberculosis clinics which are work
ing in cooperation with the tuberculosis
Committee. and for whose support and
regulation the Red Cross seal money
goes. Here the doctor found that the
mother was suffering from tuberculosis,
and an examination Of each Of the chill
dreu revealed the distressing fact that
two of them were also slightly infected.
Through the efforts Of the Tuberculosis
Committee these children were placed IN
a day camp and the other. children were
taken care Of In various ways while the
nothe~ was being treated at the city san
atorium.
Now Tony is back In the regular day
school. leading his classes, while the
mother has returned from the sanato-
rum. much improved in health and able
TO continue her duties, and the danger OF
p threatened attack OF tuberculosis has
been warded off from all Of the six cnu-
dreu. The few dollars which this effort
cost have resulted IN the prevention OF
tuberculosis IN probably six lives. was
the money well spent? Did the open ar
schools and the tuberculosis clinics and
the educational campaign bring results
There is only one answer TO these ques-
tons. Twelve years ago the death rate
from tuberculosis in New York was 2.o''
To-day Il is lie. This is a decrease or ~
per cent. and means an annual saving OF
hundreds Of lives. The tuberculosis Com
mittee can justly lay claim to a large
share Of this Iifesaving work. Every Red
Cross seal that is sold during this holiday
season will mean further saving OF life
during the coming year.

PREACHING VS.. PRACTICE.

Secretary Bolton, of the Greater
Des Moines Committee, has put up
a proposition to the travelling men
of Iowa who are preaching the doc
trine Of patronizingJ Iowa industries.
He calls the attention 81 the trav-
cling men to the fact that they
ought to wear, as far as possible,
clothing made in Iowa. The secre-
tary also asserts that manufacturers
who are complaining Of the tend
dency OF the consumers to buy OUT
side the state, are themselves gull
ty. They wear shoes from st. Louis,
suits from Chicago, hats from New
York, and neckties5 from Paris, Ill.
'sWe cannot consistently ask Iowa
people to buy within the state and
patronize home industry, If We
don't do IT ourselves, Mr. Bolton
writes. He closes his letter by ex-
horting the travelling men to wear
Iowa-made clothes and then make
the most Of the buy in Iowa" talk

idea for travelling men to try smok-
ing cigars made in Iowa, and what
is the matter Of using Iowa -four,

bad idea for them to read Iowa
newspapers, too, instead of the Chi
cago make. Then the Iowa hog Is

On February Fl Colonel Roosevelt

advocated simplided method for the

At once he was assailed by the repre-
sentatives OF Big Business and OF
Monopoly as an advocate OF virtual
anarchy and a living threat against
the safety Of property.
OF course, at the time he was speak
ing more particularly OF state courts.
but in less than three weeks-on
March IL, to be exact-the Supreme
Court Of the United States handed
down decision, coupled with the dis
sent of three members. including tnat
of the chief justice, vindicating Col
onel Roosevelts attitude in every par
ticular. The Supreme Court caught

comments drawn upon himself from
the advocates OF special privilege

on to the Supreme Court and espe-
cially to Chief Justice White. For u
ever q human being voiced demand
for the recall Of a decision Of the

his dissenting opinion.
The Case In Point.
The case was that Of Sidney Henry
ct al vs.. the A. B. Dick company. The
Dick company owned the patent on q
rotary mimeograph. It sold one Of
the machines to Miss Christina b.
Skou, Of New York, under . supula-
ton that the ink. stencil paper and
other supplies used with the Invention
must be bought from the Dick COM
pany. The Henry company sold Miss
Skou ink for the mimeograph that
was not Dick ink, and the Dick com
pany sued the Henry company and
Miss Skou for infringement Of the pat
emit on the mimeograph. On March IL,

decided the case and held that when
the Henry company sold the non Dick
ink to Miss Skou and she used 1t, this
constituted an infringement Of the
patent.
In dissenting opinion, in which he
was joined by Justices Hughes and
Lamar, Chief Justice White denounced
this extraordinary opinion in the most
biting language. Stating that the pat
emit did not cover the ink in any way,
he demanded that the legislative de-
partment OF the government amend
the law so as to make It impossible
for the precedent established by the
decision to be maintained; and then
he cited some Of the weird and ridicu-
