The vessel was an oil burner. and
the wreckers had hoped TO take ad-
vantage of this by making use of her

examination of wreck showed she was

ANNUAL MEETING OF THE

Plans Extensive County

The Maryland Association for Pre-
vertion and Relief of tuberculosis will
hold its Annual Meeting on Friday
afternoon of this week at Osler Hall,
IN the Medical & Chirurgical Faculty
Building. DR.. Henry Barton Jacobs,
the President of the Association, will

Rev. Samuel McComb, D. D., Canon
Missioner of the Cathedral of the In
carnation, will deliver the main address
of the day. DR.. McComb's subject will
be The Glass Method of Treating Tuber-
culosis, to which plan DR.. McComb had
given considerable study and personal
attention before he came to Baltimore.
1t sufficient interest is shown in the
idea, it is probable that the class meth
cd will be tried out in Baltimore in the
near future.
According to its Executive Secretary,
the tuberculosis Association had very
successful sale of the Red Cross Christ
mas Seals this past season. the state
sale totaling $50, 900, exceeding that of
1914 by about 265, 900 Seals, and the
next highest sale, in 1911, 376. 900 Seals.
This substantial increase, together with
the funds received through the cam
paign Of the Alliance OF Charitable and
Social Agencies last December. will
permit the Association to develop its
work in an extensive way, and also, to
extend its activities over a larger field.

ature, it is hoped to educate the people
not only as to the dangers, treatment,
and prevention of tuberculosis, and the
proper and adequate means for it's con-
troll, but also, to impress upon them
the necessity of having county anti
tuberculosis committees fight the dis
ease at close range in their respective
counties, and to bring about the for
nation of such committees. The AS
ISOLATION has already purchased Ford
car which is being fitted with a COM
mercial body and furnished with other
equipments for an extensive field cam
paign. Mr.. Anderson and his helper
when enroute will camp out nights and
illustrate as they go along, the value of
sleeping in open-air. Already several
organizations and prominent people in
the various counties have become In
terested in the campaign and have of
fered their cooperation.
Other items on the Associations pro-
gram for the year, will be a study of
the tuberculosis dispensaries' situation
with view of ascertaining now fully
the present facilities of this kind meet
the needs of the community, the further
investigation of the states negro
tuberculosis problem, and the working
out of the clans for the extension of the
open-air classes, particularly in con-
nection with the public schools. The
Association is also developing plans for
the construction and distribution of
simple open-air sleeping and sitting de-
vice which it is hoped can be furnished
free or at a small cost on recommends
ton of the Health Department, to
tuberculosis patients in the most con-
gested sections. This deYlce will permit
the patient to have the advantages of
sitting or sleeping in the open air which
would be impossible under conditions
where a whole family occupies one or
two rooms and the opening of windows
would cause great inconvenience and
possibly jeopardize the health of the
patient s family, if there was INSULT
cient fuel, wearing apparel or bed
clothing.
