The Boys Reply

"Here, boy" called out the office wit to the new hand, who seemed very green, "Run over to Nibs & Dibs' and get thrip'nyworth of pigeons milk, will you? Here's half crown; bring the change back to me, and be quick about ftp
 The boy set out, but did not return for some time, and when he did get back the chief partner was giving some orders to Reginald. But the boy knew nothing of office etiquette, so he stepped between Reggie and the 'tboss" and produced live pigeon.
 "Here you are," he said. "Mr. Nibs says you can jolly well milk the bird yourself. And there ain't no change"

premises clear of inflamable rubbish. This lessens the risk of fire. And then beware not to throw a lighted match where it is liable to set your house, or your neighbors, afre. So with the babies; have them as nearly as pos sible germ proof, by seeing after their general health and then do not expose them to those sparks that are liable to produce disease, bacteria.
 In closing my remarks today, I would like to start campaign of my own, not nearly so important as the one just mentioned. Duly little plea to parents that would help them as well as their children when danger threatens their little ones and the doc tor has to be sent for. I will tell a story that will help to make clear the point wish to make. A little five year old daughter of doctor in Geor- gia was taken down with spell of intermittent fever. It became neces- sary to administer quinine, which the doctor did in the form of small cap- sules. In order to induce her to take them, he told her that they were little humming birds eggs and were very nice. When the quinine began to take effect she told her father with great glee, that the little birds had matched and were singing in her head. Start to educate them early. that doctors are not to be feared, that medicines are not a punishment and you will have done more good for preparedness and peace in the home, than you can estimate.
 thank you for your kind attention. Much that I have said may be any thing but new to you. My plea is that only by frequent, often tiresome repe- tition, do we finally learn what often means so much to us.

Offers ADVICE IN
TUBERCULOSIS FIGHT.
New York Expert Would
Increase Size OF Edgewood
Sanitarium
SECRETARY TO
DIRECT WORK

Philip p. Jacobs, assistant secretary
OF the National Association for tho
Study and Prevention OF tuberculosis
attended the quarterly meeting OF the
Delaware State Anu-Tuberculosis
Commission yesterday, and after the
meeting inspected Hope Farm and
Edgewood the latter being a sanitar-
ium for Negro oonsumptives. At a
luncheon conference held at the Hotel
dupont Mr. Jacobs told how existing
conditions at the two institutions
could be bettered
1--WE known about the tuberculosis
work in Delaware for the last eight
years. and It seems marvellous that
the eight patient shack that existed
then should have grown by faith and
patience into Hope Farm and Edge
wood. he said He added that he had
three suggestions TO mako for the
work.
First. the work that Is being done
at EdgewOod for the Negroes should
he expanded by increasing the capac-
ity of the institution there to fifteen
patients There would not be much
extra expense. With an appropriation
Of $4,000. in addition to the $4,000 you
are now receiving. you could care for
twice as many patients" lie also
suggested that the commission de
velop still further the educational and
organization work among the Negroes
His second suggestion was that
the commission employ an executive
secretary 10 devote his full time TO
organizing and stimulating the anti
tuberculosis fight in this State. In
connection with this. Mr.. Jacobs said
that Il was not only a needed step
In advance, but also an almost sure
method of conserving the money al
ready invested In the work. His third
suggestion was that the commission
establish the ideal for themselves OF
definitely working towards the con-
troll OF tuberculosis and undertaking
this work as a community problem,
saying that this was more practical
in this State than others because OF
/ the comparative smallness Of the
State.
While no formal action was taken
on the suggestions made by Mr.. ia
cobs they were we'll received and II
was informally decided to invigorate
a vigorous campaign TO secure money
from the next legislature to carry
out the first two suggestions made by
Mr.. Jacobs.
The following members Of the com
mission we're present at the luncheon
conference: John Bancroft. presiden
Of the commission; DIR. Harold l.
