Prevention Work by the Ma
tional Association is Re-
viewed In Convention.

WASHINGTON. D. c., May -
The work of the National Association
for the Prevention Of Tuberculosis.
which was begun just ten years ago
was reviewed at the opening session
OF the tenth annual meeting OF the
association here today.
DR.. Charles j. HATFIELD, of Phila-
delphia, one OF the directors, re-
ported that after ten years work
there are over $500 anU-tubeercu!
losis agencies now we'll established
as compared with less than 80 such
agencies in 1905.
Numerous Agencies.
The agencies today include $50
tuberculosis sanatoria and hospitals
.410 dispensaries, nearlf 1900 anti
tuberculosis associations and $50
open air schools and fresh air
classes. Besides, a considerable
number OF boards OF health AMI 9TH
.er agencies are taking an active part
in this campaign.
"While the National Association
cannot lay claim to the organization
of each and every individual piece
of anti-tuberculosis work developed
during these years, says the report,
1T is probably no exaggeration to
say that at least a great part OF
this movement has been stimulated
directly by our association. 1t is,
therefore, significant to you, who
are members of the association to
note that while the entire budget OF
the national Office for this period
has been only $500, 900, federal,
state and local anti-tuberculosis
agencies, both public and private.
have expended during this SINE
period practically $t0O,o0O,000.
Gain in Stamp Sale.
DR.. Hatfield also reported upon
the Red Gross Christmas Seal sale
for last year and estimated that
when all the returns are in, the ag-
gregate sale will reach more than
43 100000 seals, gain OF ten per
cent over 1912. Plans for the sale
next fall have already been per-
fected and the printing of the seals
will soon be begun Some OF the
most significant developments OF
new work during the last year have
been in the states OF South Carolina.
Oklahoma and South Dakota In
all of these states the new activities
have been stimulated by the sale OF
the, Red Gross esals.

new METHODS
of Fighting Tuberculosis after
Meeting is Opened at
Washington.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May -
Leaders in the anti-tuberculosis cam
paign from all parts Of the United
States assembled here this morning
at the opening session of the tenth
annual meeting of the national as
ISOLATION for the Study and Prevention
of Tuberculosis, at which time it ID
expected that President wilson will
comment n the progress of this
movement during the last ten years.
Among the significant subjects
which will be discussed in the two
day session, probably one OF the most
important will be a discussion before
the advisory council on the question
of the medical examination Of en-
ployees, at which time papers will be
presented showing how the regular
inspection Of all employees in large
industrial corporations in Chicago
and elsewhere has helped to increase
efficiency and has proved good busi-
ness"

Patty and WaitstiII, with some of

long sermon. They separated after the
modest meal to walk about the com
mon or stray along the road TO the
academy, where there was a fine view.
Two or three times during the sum-
mer the sisters always went quietly
and alone to the Baxter burying lot,
where three grass grown graves lay
beside one another. unmarked save by
narrow wooden slabs. so short that the
initials painted on them were almost
hidden by the tufts of clover. The
girls had brought roots of pansies and
sweet alyssum and with knife made
holes in the earth and planted them
here and there to make the spot a tribe
less forbidding. They did not speak
to each other during this sacred little
ceremony. Their hearts were too full
when they remembered afresh the abb
sence of headstones, the lack of care,
in the place where the three women
lay who had ministered to their father,
