AN ouT.oF.DooR scHooLHousE.

Grown men and women aren't the
only people who suffer from consump-
tion. In the Missouri State Sanator.
ium at Mount Vernon, where people
in the early stages of consumption go
to get well. there are thirty boys and
girls now. When the first children
came to Mount Vernon for treatment
several years ago. the doctors and
nurses in charge of the sanatorium
realized that It wasn't enough to heal
these little folks bodies--that they
must also be doing something for
their minds while they were getting
well.
And so Mrs. c. G. English, who used
to be school teacher and Is now the
wife OF one of the sanatorum doctors,
opened a school for the children in p
room In one of the sanatorium build
ings Now the children have a build
ing all to themselves, and it's a
mighty interesting sort Of a school.
When they aren't in school-and
scnool only lasts during the mornings
there is two hundred acres of wood
land for them to explore, and it Is full
OF birds and squirrels. And there s
a creek on the sanatorium grounds
where a fellow can sometimes catch
fish if he's patient enough.

people who believe they have oon-
sumption and want to 90 to the sana-
torium. II costs $50 month to take
care Of each patient at Mount Vernon,
for the food Is of the best, and the
care offered by physicians and nurses
comes high. The state doesn't skimp
in the quality of its treatment Mis-
souri, Is willing to contribute $25 a
month toward the support of each
patient who Is admitted to the sana-
torium II the county in which he lives
is willing to put up the other s25.
Only a very few counties In Missouri
have refused to do this. So after
being examined by the states doctor
In your locality II Is simply a matter
of going before the county court OF
your county and proving TO its salts
faction that you deserve to be admit
ted to the sanatorium.
The patient arriving at Mount Yer
non Is usually put to bed for a time.
His temperature is taken every day,
and he Is weighed once week, and
as soon as he begins to show marked
improvement, he is allowed more free
dom to exercise.
The site of the sanatorium is a
beautiful wooded hilltop, where the
sun comes dancing through the leaves,
and bird notes of one sort or another
may be heard most of the year. Plenty
Of summer resorts are not so attrac-
tive in location nor do they serve such
good food as the Mount Vernon sana-
torium.
Much OF the food Is raised on the
sanatorium farm. tuberculosis pa
tients require great many eggs and
a great deal Of milk to help them re-
gain their strength, and the sana-
torium has it's own herd Of registered
Holstein COWS and hundreds Of White
Leghorn chickens. There is big
garden, so that fresh vegetables may
be easily obtained, and along in the
spring there's strawberry patch big
enough to supply plenty OF berries for
everybody on the place.

DR.. B. Hughes is the states chief
life-saver at Mount Vernon. He is
the superintendent of the sanatorium
and has charge Of it's management.
The medical supervision of the hos
pital is under the direction Of DR.. c.
G. English.
But the most important thing to
remember about the Missouri State
Sanatorium at Mount Vernon is that

People suffering from tuberculosis
better their chances OF recovery very
greatly by getting treatment early.
before the disease has gathered much
headway. And that's exactly what the
Mount Vernon sanatorium helps them
to do. And it gives the poor man as
much OF chance to recover his health
as is accorded the man with money.
