Miss L. A. Neiswanger, field secretary
Of the Kansas association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis IL car
rying the fight against this disease d.
rect into the homes of the Kansas
farmers. Miss Neiswanger spoke to sew
eral of the Grange organizations this
week and is planning to continue her
work this winter, covering the entire
state if she can get permission from the
various oranges.
1t has been found that the disease IL
actually increasing in the country, and
this is the reason for the opening Of the
night among the farmers.
In letter to each of the Shawnee
county oranges, Miss Neiswanger says;
tuberculosis is frequently called a city
disease and much Of the work Of anti
tuberculosis associations has been car
ried on in the more populous places.
But recent investigations show that the
number Of deaths from tuberculosis in
the rural communities as compared
with cities was as II to is, and while
there had been decrease in the death
rate for certain cities, there had been
a marked increase in the rural COM
munities In 1913 Kansas lost LOSS peo-
pie from tuberculosis.
The grange OF other states Is taking
an active part in this warfare and we
believe you will wish to do the same.
Arrangements can be made for free
lecturer with lantern slides and any
assistance necessary to inform the peO-
pie concerning the nature of tubercu-
losis, the ways that 1t can be spread,
the methods of prevention.
The Oranges in the north part of the
county are going to take the subject

plan of cooperation with the state as

Indian Creek Grange Library.
The Indian Creek grange has just re-
turned to the state library 80 books,
which they have had out for the past
six months.
The Free State Public library which is
located in the state house. is open to
any organization in the state. BY de-
= posting $500 the state will loan nifty
books on all subjects for a period of six
months. These books can be given out
for private use.
Motor Speeding on Avenue.
Drivers of autos. and motorcycles use
North Kansas avenue and Central ave-
nue. from the 1000 block on north, as q
speedway. Any time of day or night
some motorist can be seen going from
streets.
This is a dangerous street for speed
ers.' Aside from a chance of running
into children, which are allowed to play
in the street, there is danger Of collid-
ing with the Shorey car. as it IL prac-
tically impossible to see the car line
from either direction.
Honeywell Notes.
Rev. l. f.. Honeywelrs sermon las
night was to women. He spoke from
Proverbs XXI, 10: who can find
virtuous woman? Her price is fal
above rubies."
, Rev. Honeywell said: "A good WON
an is the best thing this side of heaven
q bad woman the worst thing this sid
of the pit. A woman touches the limi
both ways; she raises higher and fall
lower than a man. The most degraded
human being on earth today is woman
Woman blesses or curses everything
she touches. Eve damned this world
Mary gave to it Saviour.
"Incipient Rome rotted for want o
women: imperial Rome rotted on &C
count of her fast women. tow
never falls below its worst women AM
never rises higher than it's best women
The homes of your town are on q 1eve
with your women, and your town
on a level with your homes"
Tonight Rev. Honeywells sermon
will be on Excuses" A few upper
cuts" as he calls them are: THE ex
cusc for not coming into the churcl
on account Of SO many hypocrites
called the baby act. If that is true
you people in North Topeka have tn
biggest supply of overgrown babies o
any town l know.
1.-THE trouble with many a man
that he wants to get enough religion
to take him clear to heaven before h
starts. If you had enough religion
now to keep you all the way to heavel
you would be blown to atoms. tn
running engine makes steam taste
than the one that won't move.
"A man can go into saloon or
den of shame and there the peOpl
will cheer each other constantly int
hell. If you would be as natural in
church meeting as in a baseball gam
you would attract more people. Don
try for one moment to curtail the en-
thusiasm of young people when the
come into the meetings.
