Louisiana has entered the ranks
of those states. which will earn
estly endeavor by concerted ac-
ton. to stamp out tuberculosis. 1t
is scientifically known that con-
sumption, termed the great white
scourge. can be stamped out of
the world in twenty years if the
knowledge of it's prevention and
cure is placed in the possession of
the people.
If our government was one of
compulsion it would be COMPARE
lively simple to enforce the laws
for it's determination. but as we
must depend for our laws and
their enforcement upon intelli-
gent public opinion. it becomes
evervone's duty to Join in this
health crusade. which. if proper
" conducted. will mean that con-
sumption in Louisiana can be
brought under control within ten
years.
Each week. there will appear
some little article dealing with
consumption. it's prevention and
its cure.
In this first lesson we beg to
call attention to the fact thai
promiscuous splitting is the GREAT
est source Of infection and if we
can teach that no splitting means
no CONSUMPTION. one-half of the
battle is gained
Readers of these articles are

the dramatization of Harold Bell
Wright's novel, which holds the
record for the largest sales of any
American work of fiction, which
has been made by Mr.. Wright,
with the assistance OF Elsebery
w. Reynolds, opens it's third an
nus| engagement at the Elas II e.
atre on Saturday, Nov 4mb .r 18th.
The scenes of the play are laid
among the Ozark mountains of
Missouri. It is story of he hills
and the simple life, vet It has olen.
ty of excitement and an air of
mystery that will hold the auditor
from beginning to end.
The story has to do with the
father Of an artist, who, tired of
city life, goes into the Ozarks for
peace and quietude. He learns
Of grevious sin committed by
his son, whom he mourns as dead.
The son had visited the hills some
years before, when he fell in love
with a simple ncontry girl. He
painted her picture and when he
went back to the city, deserving
the girl. he earned fame because
of the canvas. The gill deserted
and broken-hearted, dies, leay ing
behind her half-witted son.
1t is to the home Of this dead
and wronged girl that the father
of the artist comes. and here he is
employed to watch the sheep. He,
grows to love the country and it's
people, and he and the half
witted boy Pete, become friends.
Then there is a love story run
ming through the play that adds
to its attractiveness. 1t is the
love of young giant of the hills
for "Sammy Lane" a girl Of un-
usual qualities.
There are several characters
whose quaint humor is a decided
n velty. Taken as a whole, the
Dlav promises to prove refresh
ing change from the general run
If dramatic attractions this season.
Messrs. Gaskill and MacVitty,
