Anti T tuberculosis League Decides to
Close up Institution.

Petersburg, Va, Jan. The Anti
tuberculosis League here has closed
the Budville sanatorium because there
has not been sufficient number oil
patients to justify its operation. Miss
Skater, the head nurse, has resigned
because she did not feel that she was
earning her salary. There were only
three patients at the sanatorlum.
These have been otherwise provided
fer. !.
The financial affairs of the, Eana-
forum have been settled up. There
was a small balance in the treasury.
The institution was not closed on ac-
court of financial reasons. It was ont
believed that the small results being
accomplished, justified the expendi-
ture of the money.
The sanatorium was purely a char
table institution. Nothing was
charged for board, medicine OF atten-
ton. 1t was ideally located on higi:
sand, and was capable of doing much
good, if those who needed it had taken
advantage of the opportunities it Of
fered.
The health records Of this city
show that the mortality from tuber-
culosis last year was larger than the
year hEore. The chief reason is, that
those who have the disease, neglect
to take advantage of the opportunities
offered them for recovery.
