stage advocated by NJ. Leon Bakst, the

traction are too much and the art of

as book literature is for the quiet hours
at home, speech belongs elsewhere than

Change Apparent In The Management
Of the Boys Department
AZ the Result
Of IL
BEN D. CHAPMAN RESIGNS
VIII % to Fort Dodge a. Boys secre-
tary the First
Of Next
Month.

It will be with feelings Of regret to
the people OF Keokuk in touch with
the workings Of the Young Mems
Christian Association OF this city to
learn that the association Is to lose
the capable. active and efficient labors
Of Ben D. Chapman, the very earnest
and tactful boys secretary OF the as
ISOLATION.
The matter has been quietly pend
ing for several weeks and now the
question seems to have come to 3
focus as to the probability of retain
ing Mr.. Chapman's services.
Ben D. Chapman came to the Keo-
kuk association In September, 1912,
and at once assumed the position OF
boys work secretary Of the associa-
ton, which position he has filled ably
and we'll. He succeeded Wilbur E.
Davis.
When Mr.. Chapman entered upon
his duties. the membership of the
boys department was less than one

hundred of active members. With
fine executive ability and an acute
sense of organizing, he seemed to in
still new life into the organization
and centered 1t on progressive lines.
Today there is membership OF about
one hundred and forty-five, an in
crease in less than year of about 90
per centum and the department is In
fine condition for future growth. And
more than this, the membership Is
composed of live wires, prompt and
active and enthusiastic in the work,
instilled into them by the earnest
work Of their leader, who works VITA
a will, whatever his hands find to do.
His energetic work has been an OBJ
ject lesson to the boys, kind OF In
spiration and they are all much at
tached to him.
He will leave the department in the
most commendable condition for his
successor. The department is ready
to move into new quarters with office
and other conveniences upstairs, with
plans for an enlarged locker capacity
which will give the boys splendid adj
ditional privileges. He has done SO
well here with anticipations for still
further good works, that there will be
universal regret in Keokuk, that dI.y
prompts him to leave Keokuk. 1t Is
In line OF promotion. The building ut
Fort Dodge is new and modern al'l
presents larger field in which he
can exercise energetic labors.
Not only did his adaptibility for
the association work bring about him
scores OF friends and steadfast asso.

For tuberculosis Patients.

DES MONIES, Aug. 16.-It does not
sppear to be generally understood
that the last legislature made ade-
guate provision for the care of all
cases of tuberculosis in every county
In Iowa. II the person Is unable to
pay for sanatorium treatment, the law
provides that county supervisors shall
make provision for his care.
This law was passed for the pur-
pose of caring for q class OF in
dividuals who cannot provide for
themselves. 1t has nothing to do with
the Poor Law" indeed. there is no
reference in any manner to this class
of persons as coming under laws re-
lating to the poor. II Is well known
that persons suffering with tuberculo-
sis are generally the most ambitious,
energetic and efficient citizens who
are rendered INDECENT by their disease.
However, persons dependent upon
their daily wages cannot pay for
sanatorinm treatment. yet sanatorium
treatment is necessary for the proper
care OF these individuals, in order
that their disease may not be COM
municated to those about them. There
fore, boards OF supervisors are author
lied to expend $500 week for any
length of time in properly caring for
these unfortunate persons. Consump.
tives who are unable to properly
care for Themselves should make i'm.
mediate application to the supervisors
Of the county for sanatorium treat
ment. The supervisors may provide
facilities within the county itself OF
arrange with institutions already be
Ing operated for this purpose.

culosis will be glad to supply all need
ed information to those who may ap
