OCTOBER 27TH is
TUBERCULOSIS DAY.
National Observance to he Planned in
10000 20lDiss- Consumption Causes
$4,000 Church Deaths Annually.

Churches and religious socities, to the
number Of at least 10000 will be
urged to give special attention to the
prevention Of tuberculosis on Sunday,
October 9th, or on some day during the
week preceding or the week following
that date. This season has been set
apart and designated as the Third
National tuberculosis Day by the Natl
onal Association for the Study and Pre-
vention of tuberculosis, which makes
this announcement to-day.
tuberculosis Day was originally set
on April 18th. tut was postponed be-
cause of conflict with Conservation
Sunday of the Men and Religion For
ward Movement. which was held on
that date. The observance of Tubercu-
losis Day in the Fall this year will be
utilized by anti-tuberculosis workers
not only for the general education of
churchgoers on consumption, but also
for the purpose of interesting them in
the sale of Red Cross Christmas Seals.
Every one of the 600 and more anti
tuberculosis associations allied with the
National Association, will be urged to
promote tuberculosis Day in their re-
spective communities. While last year
over 50, 600 churches observed this occa-
sion, it is expected this year that this
number will be doubled. Millions Of
circulars and other forms of literature
will be distributed. The support OF
every religious denomination will be
asked for.
That tuberculosis is a serious problem
among church congregations is evidence
ed by statistics which the National AS
ISOLATION gathered last year, which
| show that 10 per cent. of all deaths
among church members are caused by
tuberculosis. Based on these figures
and on the mortality statistics of the
Census Bureau, over 50, GOO of the SO,
900, 000 communicates in churches in the
United States die from tuberculosis
every year. This figure assumes that
the death rate of LEO per 1000 popula-
ton in the Registration Area applies to
all churchgoers, when, as a matter of
fact, the rate would probably be higher.

E Editor of The Repnblican:

To the Editor of The Republican:
Saturday, August 3rd, 1912, shoold
mark an epoch distinguished in Keyser' s
history For some while back enter
prising combinations have been active
ascertaining a route and building a rail
road, rather less than the standard
width, from a point Just east of the
town limits and from the south side of
the B. & o. railroad, and to be known
as the Twin Mountain and Potomac
Road The point yet reached is much
short of that designated by the promo
tiers. In both grading and construction
are evident proof of skill and thorough
ness. The engineering accomplishment
is of no mean merit in the face of such
physical difficulties. Mountains of rock
and earth rises along the line accepted
as natural and, apparently, lnsurmount-
able barriers against railway possibili-
ties. These formidable discOuragements
have been more subservient to skill,
energy and means and the selected
route meanders through regions beg
caring description in their picturesque
wilderness. The train moving out this
morning was the initial passenger train
over this artery of waiting commerce.
In this excursion two leading entice-
ments stimulated the pleasure seekers
the novelty of ride on the maiden
trip of new railroad and the confident
expectation of pleasures at the picnic

Among the great men of the world
few have been the subject of higher
panegyric than Edmund Burke, and,
on the whole, few have better de-
served praise. No public man was
ever more pure in his politics and
more pure in his life, and few have
been as noble minded. He possessed
interchangeable industry. There was no
subject that he could not master, and
none which, having mastered, he
could not expound with unparalleled
richness of language.-Exchange.

SIX. Y. z. Replies To Rev.C w. Hudson.

To the Editor of The Republican.
In your issue of July 18th the Rev. c..
W. Hudson takes me to task tor making
the statement, and challenges the proof,
that Protestant ministers generally have
discarded their belief in literal lake of
fire and birthstone tor the eternal
torment of the wicked, as punishment
for sin.
First, let me express my surprise that
Bro. Hudson has not found even one out
of several hundred of his bre thern in the
ministry, whom he personally knows,
who has repudiated this doctrine of the
dark ages. | am constrained to wonder
as to how zealously he has prosecuted
his inquiries
But the proof! The following is

day July 20. 1912:
