ANOTHER GOOD WORK.
Chamber of Commerce Engineered
Tuberculosis Society's Change.

In the story published in yesterdays
issue of the Herald reviewing the
things accomplished by the Chamber
of Commerce since it's organization, no
mention was made of the taking over
by the city's health departm ent of the
work of the tuberculosis society, an
act for which the chamber was re-
sponsible.
The tuberculosis question was one
of the first matters taken UP by the
civic bureau. Rev. Lucyan Bojnow-
ski, pastor of the Polish Catholic
church told the members at the first
meeting of the board of directors of
the ravages of the disease among his
people in New Britain and urged that
steps for more effective work against
it's spread be taken. He suggested
that the municipality take up the
fight in order that more restrictions
might be imposed upon tuberculosis
patients.
At a later meeting of the civic
bureau directors, a committee con-
sisting of DIR. T. Eben Reeks, SUPER
intendent of the health department;
A. BuoI, president of the Tuberculosis
society. and Rev L., Bpjnowski was
APPOINTED to bring about the desired
change in the control of the work of
the tuberculosis society.
