CONTROL
FOR TUBERCULOSIS
National Body Proposes Division In
United States Public Health
Service

Participation of the federal govern
ment through the United States Pub
lie Health Service in the study and
control of tuberculosis is urged by a
resolution adopted by the National
Association for the Study and Proven
ton of tuberculosis made public TO,
day.
The National Association proposes
that by act of congress a special di-
vision of tuberculosis be established
i'll the United States Public Health
Service and an adequate appropria-
ton. This division should be manned
by experts and should studythe tuber-
culosis problem from every point or
view and should, so far as possible
set up standards for the treatment
and prevention of the disease through
out the country. One Of the problems
which it is proposed to study frs,
would be that of the INDECENT migra,
tory consumptive, particularly in the
health resorts of various parts of the
United States. such as California,
New Mexico, Colorado and Texas.
Another problem which It is proposed
should be studied is that relating to
the causes of tuberculosis. A bill in
troduced by Congressman Kent, OF
California, in the house and by Sena-
tor Norris, of Nebraska, in the Senate
provides for some of the things which
the National Association asks for and
also for federal subsidy to hospitals
caring for nonresident consumptives.
Commenting on the resolution, DR..
| Charles j. Hatfield, executive secre-
tary of the National Association for
the Study and Prevention of Tuber-
culosis, says: "In spite of the fact
that tuberculosis is costing the Unitea
States from 500,0O0,0O0 to 100000
900 every year in lives lost, the "a
mount of money being spent annually
/ by all private and public agencies
is not much more than $20,0000 900;
and while a nationwide crusade to
stamp out tuberculosis has been or
ganized, we are still ignorant Of
many of the factors that produce it.
A few thousand dollars wisely spent
| in scientific research under federal
supervision will secure results OF in
calculable benefit to this country"

STATE CONVENTION
AT MORGANTOWN
Sunday School Workers are Called
To Meet There Next
NAV


Chairman Stark A. White of the
executive committee of the state
Sunday school association has issued
the official call for the state Sunday
school convention to be held at Nor
gantown next May 10th, 18th and
18th. 1t reads:
1T is with keenest and deepest
pleasure we call the attention OF all
who are interested in promoting the
Kingdom Of God through the Sunday
schools of West Virginia, to the thir.
ty-fourth State Sunday school con-
vention. which will be held in Nor.
gantown, Wednesday. Thursday and
Friday May 10, II and u.
In recognition of the far reaching
Influence of these annual meetings.
your executive committee is especial
ly pleased to hold the 1916 convention
at Morgantown.
''In all the years of the life of our
State Sunday School Association,
Notwithstanding that Morgantown is
the Athens of West Virginia. it has
never entertained a state convention
but in that ueriod of time, it has
given five state presidents, three of
whom now reside in the city.
"Morgantown is an important his
toric, educational and religious cen
ter; it is the seat of the states larg-
est educational institution and has
students from all parts of the state.
Parents who have sons and daugh-
tiers studying at the university. will
and should attend as they wish to
come in contact with the university,
it's faculty and the people of the town
environments under which their
children are placed in attending the
university. Former students are es-
pecially invited to attend.
eMorgantown has several church
buildings within easy reach of each
other, and three halls in which meet
ing can be held ,affording ample
room for the entertainment of all
mass meetings and divisional and de-
partmental conferences of the con.
vention
"a strong committee of arrange
ment reports that everything will be
in readiness for a royal reception for
all Sunday School workers of West
Virginia. Every citizen whose sym
pathies are with the religious and
educational efforts of the generation
should attend. Every Sunday school
man and woman will want to share
in the rejoicing and prifit of the oc-
casio.
"Over and above these things
comes the appeal of a special strong
program, with its complete review of
the past years work, its plans foi
! the year to come and the instruc
tional and inspirational presence of
many Sunday school specialists of
state and international reputation.
Reason upon reason could be
1 given why every Bible school worker
will want to come, why every Bible
school worker should come and why
no Bible school worker can afford
not to come. Morgantown people say
come. The State Sunday school ex'
ecutive committee says comet"

Last week Miss Martha Williams.
working in the interest Of the To-

visit to the Pilgrim Rest school.

here she made a very interesting
talk upon the selection, preparation.

plants. Not only was the interest
shown among the pupils, but, It
reached the homes We are proud
to say), and several OF their mothers
were out to hear Miss Hickman.
Miss Williams was with us again
this week. and presided over meet

the closing of one OF the best sea-
