work of this sort Will serve not only
to amuse the demented patients but
will probably be of value in helping
restore sanity to those who are not
incurable. A special instructor has
been assigned to this work The
hospital also is conducting training
school for nurses so that eventually
the state may furnish its own supply
of trained attendants such as are
now hard TO find.
December will be observed
throughout the United States as
tuberculosis Sunday, and proclama-
ton to this effect has just been issued
by Governor Hodges in Kansas at the
same time with similar proclamations
by the Governors of other states OF
the union. All over the country this
year as usual Christmas packafies will
be labeled with the pretty Red Cross
stamps that are sold by the National
Red Cross Association as a means OF
raising funds for the national fight
the White Plague. The fight is a
winning one. In Kansas the death
rate is slowly falling. With the
suscess already achieved, say the
leaders in the fight, it is only ques-
ton of a generation more before it
will be rarity. By that time the
a fight upon cancer.
1.-THE Kansas lar is charged with
keeping this state from receiving any
of the sixty TO seventy millions of
dollars that are spent on private
educational institutions by wealthy
givers of the east, in a letter just
written by George w, Martin, secre-
tary of the State Historical Society,
to the superintendent of public in
struction. Friends of Mr.. Martin,
who is veteran Kansas editor, will
be pleased to learn that his health,
which has been frail for months, is
far enough restored to enable him to
take his accustomed interest in what
is going on in Kansas. Secretary Mar
tin says that one result of the con-
that the people back east think this
state has more money than it knows
what to do with and they are reluc-
tant to give anything to the private
schools in the state, which are al
ways in need of help. Even Nebraska,
he says, gets lot where Kansas gets
nothing.
One hundred and twenty-five de-
positors of the defunct Abilene State
bank will have special reason for the
observance of Thanksgiving day this
year on account of the payment of
their claims, aggregating trif1e over
$50, 900, which has just been ordered
to be made from the state bank
guaranty fund. This is the first pay
ment to be made from that fund
which was created to provide against
losses on the part of depositors in
banks which go under in Kansas.
The bank guaranty law was passed in
1909, about year before the Abilene
institution closed its doors as conse-
quence of the irregularities of Cashier
John A. Elack, who is now in the
Kansas penitentiary. The unpaid
deposits with interest will be re-
turned to depositors at once, the
formalities of closing the institu-
tion's business having all been dis
posed of. The work of checking
claims and making payments from
funds of the guaranty fund is now
occupying State Bank Commissioner
Charles NJ. Sawyer.
