We are engaged in death struggle
with the tubercle bacillus and shall
be until we have conquered it or until
it has conquered us. We should unite
in fighting 1t as we would tiger

a lion in the way" would we not all
tell the man with gun hunting him.
Would we not all become the man
with the gun, and he could not live
an hour. But the lion would not be
as deadly as the tubercle bacillus; the
lion would probably be killed in an
hour and likely woulI not have a
single victim, certainly he would not
have two.
The tubercle bacillus is and will be
Our deadliest disease There is train
ed expert here now trying to hunt the
bacillus down with a gun, but he will
probably use or recommend SAM
tarium; not with powder, he will prob
ably tell us to establish dispensary,
a headquarters for information from
which will go out nurses to our var
ious homes likely to need help. to
know what to do; to ward off the I'M
seen foe. (Not that he has not seen
it for he has, many If us have and
know the dangers that Turk in Its hid
ing places.)
He is here to help all OF us, not to
tell on us or harm us in any way; If
any Of us have incipient consumption,
an interview with him if minded
strictly by us would be worth to us
whatever life is worth If We are
afraid we have it, we should make
sure and apply to remedies which he
will suggest If we hide the know
ledge it will force it's way out to our
bitter cost He has not complained Of
US; on the contrary he speaks well
of our frankness and of our kindness.
1t is only that we may all come to
him and make his record the most
complete that can be made that this
appeal is made.

"How Our Attitude
Defeats Our End

Not long since a consumptive sent
me sample of his sputum and asked
me to examine it for tubercle bacilli
He further asked that nothing be said
to him about the result; that the re.
port be handed to him in a sealed
envelope; he desired to sail under
sealed orders. He took the sealed
orders and set sail The orders were
that the enemy that could take him
anywhere was after him. It was his
last voyage. He had taken his orders
too late.
Remember that consumption is not
an overhanging nemesis. not the dis
favor of God; not fate that is sure

UP AND DOWN BROADWAY--By Allen Griffin Johnson

Nor care if our efforts be vain, There's someone. just someone, though
 far, far away. Who always remembers, nor ceases to
 pray; Who's waiting and pleading believing to-
 day,
 That one day the heights we will gain. An, that is the thought that inspires The sunbeam that reaches the heart. Awakening dormant desires; Though still but an alien. apart,xE Iris little we care for the roughness of
 hands ., By ignorance guided. that strike their
 demands. For somewhere there's someone who still
 understands,
 Through loves gentle, wonderful art And so when the heart is in sorrow, And anguish has weakened the will, Loves message gives hope for the. mor-
 row,
 And courage is found in its thrill. Oh, wind of the night, in your murmur;, !
 ings low, But wait us word in a voice we know, The voice of someone who cared long
 ago,
 And loves us as tenderly still.
 Don't see why the numerous young women who jump up to give their sub- way seats to old people should receive SD much praise. More than half the nlcn on the trains would do likewise, only .the women try to beat them to 1t. often just for the sake of the satisfaction they can get out of loolin gther scorn at the still seated men. and from the attenNon it at tracts to them

There is a certain charm about this to many people For instance, if you live in small town, and on small salary yet appear in the evening wearing a silk hat full evening regalia and carrying cane, you must at least have destina- ton. or some good excuse to offer to your acaauintances who may chance to see you. s~i- Here YOU need nothing of the sort. You miah. even wear the cane and carry the silk haiti would make no difference to any one except yourself. Furthermore, the impression you make will be greatly min mixed for upon this island are many hotels and restaurants where the walters are attired after that fashion, and they do not always put on change or cloti- ing when going to and from their places of labor The real impression, as l have told you before, is up to your personal ity, and without that you must accept your place by the side of mediocrity.
