about the evenest rounds ever gone
through with. The gate receipts for
the show ran up to S1O,S62. Papers

ease, but which has served only to
spread in the thought and hearts of
hundreds Of thousands a paralyzing
fear that never should have been Gre
ated
Members of state legislatures have
been impressed in many instances
by the dramatic and highly cOlored
accounts of the dangers of tubercu-
losis, furnished by over-zeaIous al
vocates of radical repressive mea-
sures. This has sometimes resulted
in proposals to appropriate large
sums Of the public money to build
tuberculosis hospitals. Under the
spur of what now proves to be an
unwarranted fear, lawmakers have
been urged to pledge the state to UNI
thought Of expenses, in order to
treat all who might be thus afflicted.
1t has even been proposed to en-
act legislation which would, clearly
be unconstitutional 1t has been pro
pOSeQ TO give TO state boards or
health unlimited authority to enter
the home and forcibly remove tuber-
culosis patients to state hospitals,
where compulsory treatment would
be administered. All of which has
been justified by the advocates of
these drastic measures on the
grounds that the danger of infection
was so great as to demand such
action
Now that the medical profession
has modified it's view about tubercu-
losis and it's menace to the public
health as a transmissible disease,
perhaps the revelation, or confession
whichever it may be, has come in
time to save good many heart
aches and further spreading of the
facilitating fear which has hitherto

JAPANESE PLAY

The following item is taken from
the Evening Blade, published at Santa
Anna. California, where Rev. Fred
Staff is located. 1t will be of inter
est to Rev. Fred Staffs friends in
this city where he was pastor for
seven years:
"Chin Shuiin Min Chu'
CLoyalty to The Master")
The Japanese exercises held at the
First Congregational Church last
night were unique. The exercises fol
the regular Sunday School had been
held Wednesday evening, and on re-
quest of the Japanese the tree and
decorations We're left intact, so that
the japanese branch of the church
could hold their celebration on Christ
mas night.
The church was crowded even more
being present than on the preceding
night, and a very large number OF
japanese were in the congregation
considering the population Of Santa
Ana But they came from all over
the county to take part in, or listen
to the children and those who took
part in the play.
The part, of Santa Claus was very
cleverly enacted by Rev. Ban, pastor
Of the japanese missi on His advent
was made in true Oriental style, and
his assistants were soon busily en-
gagged in distributing the presents an
good things he had brought to every.
one in the church.

NOT INFECTIOUS
Editorial Comment Calls General At
tention to the Latest Medical
Edict.

The statement Of one Of the coun-
try's leading med cal author. ties on
tuberculosis, to the effect that there
is very little danger from infection
of this disease, will come as mat
ter of extreme qualification to many
sensible men, both in and out Of the
profession, who have long deplored
the excited condition of the publ C
mind on this subject. The gentle
man who makes this comforting
statement is DR.. E. R. Baldwin Of
Saranac Lake, who is a recognized
specialist, and his assurances lose
nothing of their value because they
fare referred to editorially, and with
approval, by the Journal of the Amer
lean Medical Association
DR.. Baldwin's conclus on is that
adults are very little endangered by
close contact with open tuberculosis,
and not at all in ordinary associa-
tion," and he further says: Qualify
these statements as We may, it is
time for a reaction against the eX-
IRENE ideas of infection now prevail
ing. There has been too much read
into popular literature by health
boards and lectures that has no
sound basis in facts, and it needs
to be dropped out or revised He
believes that ''the preachments about
the danger of infection to adults in
the present state of society are with
out Justification from an experiment.
al standpoint.
To all of which the Journal OF
the American Medical Association
adds that these statements "'repre-
sent not one mans views, but what
seems to be the growing conviction
of the most progressive and thought
full students of tuberculosis at the
present time.
| 1t is fortunate that the disclosures
regarding the nominations nature Of
tuberculosis should come with the
authority of one who is accounted a
| specialist on the subject, and that it
should be vouched for by SO high a
medical authority as the Journal Of
| the American Medical Association,
since now there Will be less room
for scepticism and less opportunity
| for dissent. The medical journal
referred to calls the prevalent at
titude of the public thought on the
subject by the appropriate, if diff
cult title, 'Pthisicphobia," and com
mends DR.. Baldwin's advice to ap-
/ ply a check TO this mania.
Those who have observed the cam
paign against tuberculosis which is
now being waged by certain por
lions of the medical profession, will
hardly care to deny that it has re
suited in a deplorable hysteria, which
has not done the country any good.
Earnest men and women have been
beguiled by specious arguments Of
hmanitarianism into lending their
aid to a publicity campaign that was

DIOCESAN
CLUB FORMED
Episcopal CIergymen and Lay
man. Meeting at Grand
Rapids. Form Organization

The four Stevens Point men-Rev
E. Croft Gear, T. H. Hanna. R. a
Cook and E. E. Johnson-who at
tended the meeting Of Episcopa
cIergymen and Iaymen from cite!
of the Wisconsin river valley a
Grand Rapids Thursday night, came
back with pleasant memories OF {
most profitable meeting and firmly
impressed with the uncertainties OF
automobile travel, especially in the
wintertime
About seVenty-five were present al
the dinner given by the laymen OF
St. Johns parish of Grand Rapids
at the parish house Bishop R. H
Weller Of Fond du Lac gave an
hours talk, telling Of the problems
there are to face ana asking the co
operation of the men of the diocese
in solving them. He pleaded for a
stronger Christian manhood and q
more Wide-awake realization of the
responsibilities in the individual COM
munities. A representative Iayman
from each parish taking part in the
meeting, including Mr.. Hanna Of this
city. also spoke.
The main object of the meeting,
the formation OF a diocesan club,
was carried out. The organization
was christened The Wisconsin Riy-
er Valley Apist OraI Mems Club and
will meet at the various cities about
four times each year. Marshfield
will have the firstmeeting, in about
three months. George Gibson of
Grand Rapids was elected president
OF the club, ]. L. Sturdevant of Wau-
sau vice president, l. P. Witter of
Grand Rapids secretary and w II.
Roddis CT Marshfield, treasurer.
The Stevens Pointers started for
home in Mr.. Hanna's auto at 1915
o'clock but they had only gone two
and a half miles when the car balk-
ed. The lubricating oil had disap-
peared and the engine became too
hot to run Mr.. Cook and Mr.. John
son started back afoot for Grand
Rapids but after going about a mile
were overtakenI by the car. All rode
for about a quarter Of a mile and
then the automobile misbehaved
again and again Messrs. Cook and
Johnson made tracks. The auto Was
put in operation once more and crawl
ed into the city, where a new
supply of oil was secured.
At 1 o'clock a second start for
home was made and all went smooth
Iy until a point about a half mile
this side of Meehan station was
reached The oil supply had again
become exhausted and it was now
a certainty that it had leaked out.
There was nothing to do but to get
to a telephone and engage a car
from this city to take the party
home. Messrs. Cook and Johnson
offered to do it and they aWOke the
occup ants of numerous farmhouses
without finding a phone. Finally, on
reaching Plover village, a walk OF
five miles, they were successful. A.
]. Clements drove out and picked
up the two pedestrians and then
went to the stranded car for Rev.
Gear and Mr.. Hanna. 1t was 4:3O

The play was very cleyerly enacted
and, as Rev. Fred Staff had given a
very clear and concise statement Of
the several scenes which the actors
were to portray, as well as a synopsis
Of the whole play, the audience was

character of Interpreter, being clad i,

Kawakami as the faithful servant,

the home of his former Mistress

ging on his knees that she would TAX
