BE A BOOSTER FOR YOUR TOWN.

BE A BOOSTER FOR YOUR TOWN.
There are numerous ways to boost
vour town. You can boost with words
of praise, or you can boost in thous-
and other ways. You can help to make
YOUR town the best there is around,
and take it from me, boosting always
pays. There is the progressive spirit,
the kind that makes things look bright
and then there is the other kind, and
the question which is right? You can
be one of the happy ones, if you work
with all your might, and try to make
the rest see things in the same radiant
light. You can bring good cheer at
Christmas time, without much expense
and dispelling gloom is ample recon-
pense. You can help some unfortunate
out of work, and that is just the kind
neighbor who perhaps has been i'll or
of Christmas spirit that God would
have on earth. You can aid by buying
Christmas seals, and share in boost
ing your town with real American zeal
Yes, there are a thousand ways to
boost your town, and you can do it the
whole year round.

There is a sowing time and time
to reap. The wise man said: Bring
a child up in the way he should go,
and when he is old he will not depart
from it." So it is with the boys of to-
day who are allowed to run the streets
till nine or ten o'clock at night. This
does not mean our town alone, as
most all towns are similarly afflicted
for an affection it surely proves to
be to many families in the after life of
the boys. Parents, see after your
boys, and the company they keep. It
will be worth more than gold to you
and them in the years to come.

RDTRUDEAU,
THECREDITOR

/ Edward Trudeau is dead. You prob
ably do not even know his name and
yet he was one of the greatest men in
/ this country Had he made automo-
biles or breakfast foods; had he been
the mayor OF a large city or the gov
ernor of a state; or a soldier who had
killed thousands, the papers would
have devoted much space to the no
tice of his death and to the accomplish
ments of his life.
Edward Trudeau was a great man.
However, history will give but brief
notice to his name because he dedi-
Gated his life to saving others.
In 1872 he contracted tuberculosis
and went to Saranac Lake and began
the great fight for his own life AL
though he lived forty-three years long
er, he succeeded in obtaining cure or
even an arrest of the disease. But
during those forty-three years he .di-
rectly and indirectly saved the lives
of thousands and thousands of his fell
low citizens-this by opening the first
open-air tuberculosis sanatorium in
the United States and thereby setting
the pace for the nation.
The accomplishments of this man,
handicapped by his disease, have been
great inspiration to me while the
following paragraph is, in my opinion,
a masterpiece which should be read by
all. It was his address of welcome as
honorary president of the Interna-
tionaI Congress on tuberculosis held in
1908. In reading this consider what
has been accomplished since that time
and what reverence you and your fam
lily owe to him and his disciples.
GAS a pioneer and veteran in the
struggle against tuberculosis in this
country, I welcome the International
Congress to our shores. For thirty
five years have lived in the midst of
perpetual epidemic, struggling with
tuberculosis both within and without
the walls, and no one can appreciate
better than | do the great meaning of
such meeting. have lived through
many Of the long dark years of ignor-
ance, hopelessness. and apathy, when
tuberculosis levied it's pitiless toll on
human life, UNDECIDED and unhinder-
ed; when, as Jaccoud has terseIy put
it, the treatment of tuberculosis was
but a meditation on DEATH But 1 |

knowledge, to see the fall of the death |
rate of tuberculosis, to see hundreds |
who have been rescued, to see whole |
communities growing up of men and |
women whose lives have been saved |

lives of others. / have lived to see
the spread of a new light from ma
ton to nation until it has encircled /
the globe and finds expression today in

The President Will Remain In
Washington.

II is a pity that the President is Obliged
to give up. or at least to postpone, his
visit to the Panama Exposition. Possibly
he will have a chance to 60 later. Indeed,
il would be appalling to think the critical
condition of affairs abroad would continue
until after the close Of the Exposition. But
for the present it is clear enough that the
President has got to stay where he can get
the earliest information regarding every
move in Europe and in Mexico. and where
he can take immediate action. For US,
Mexican conditions are scarcely less dan
gerous than the conditions in Europe. Both
in the East and in the West. and hardly
less in China, there may at the same
time be a situation that will demand
prompt and energetic action by our Gov
eminent. and the President understands
his duty
