that II is our duty to avail ourselves
OF the information furnished by this
survey in our efforts to eliminate the
scourage. We believe that public opin-
ion is now ripe for energetic measures
for this purpose.
Three Agencies Indicated.
THE federal report indicates the
three most valuable agencies are:
First; a trained nurse; second, dis.
pensary, and third. tuberculosis SAM
tarium. This society has already Sc
cured the nurse and provided funds
for carrying on the work during the
coming year. We will also use our
best efforts to establish a dispensary
and will endeavor to raise the neces-
sary funds for the purpose, but there
is one other thing which is equally
necessary which we can not do with
out the assistance Of the county au-
thorities and that is the establishment
OF the tuberculosis hospital. The law
authorizes 1t and even allows funds
to be borrowed on credit Of the coun-
ty for this purpose by bonds and
otherwise. The county commissioners
have full power to insert an appro-
priation in the budget, and the county
council to pass the appropriation. The
expense of constructing and maintain.
ing such an institution in comparison
with other county institutions and
other hospitals is not great DR.. Perry
informs US that hospital accommo-
dating some thirty patients in all can
be erected for about $4,000, and with
the necessary land and equipment, an
appropriation of that amount for two
years ought to be amply sufficient to
establish and maintain the sanitorium
during that period.
ExeeIs All Improvements.
There is no other public improve
ment now contemplated Of equal i'm.
portance with this. Good roads and
fine bridges are a great convenience,
but they are by no means so necessary
to life and happiness as the elimina-
ton of disease, and to eXpend hun
dreds and thousands of dollars upon
these while neglecting to care for the
lives of our citizens would be mex
cusable to the last degree. This is an
issue which affects US all. Those who
consider themselves and their families
immune may be afflicted at any time
with this dreadful scourge, and we
most earnestly urge our county COM
missioners before appropriating vast
sums of money to other less important
objects to see to 1t that the most vital
Of all is provided for"

The first thing many persons think

greatest value and interest for wom-

FORWARD STEPS TAKEN
TO OBTAIN HOSPITAL

countrywide campaign to promote
the tuberculosis hospital and urge up
on the county commissioners and the
county council necessity Of immedi
ate steps In this direction, was inau
gurated at meeting of the Wayne
County Society for the Prevention OF
tuberculosis last evening.
Report was made by the special
committee which adopted by the soci
ETY. as a whole.
The report of DR.. J. c. Perry, feder
al health expert, indicated that the
three most valuable agencies in com
batting tuberculosis are trained
nurse, dispensary and a hospital
Miss Mary Kennedy, OF Lawrenceburg
Ind. has been employed as nurse.

Arrangements are being made for
the establishment OF a dispensary

appointed last evening.
Miss Kennedy reported last even.
Ing that during her three weeks act.

visited twenty-five cases of tubercu.
losis.
Resolution Adopted.
The following resolution was adopt.
ed by the society last evening:
The Wayne County Society for the
Prevention Of tuberculosis earnestly
urges upon the county commissioners
and the county council that steps be
now taken for the construction Of a
county tuberculosis hospital in which
tncipient cases may be cured and ad.
vanced and dangerous cases be re-
lieved and segregated so as to avoid
the danger Of contagion wherever this
cannot be effectively done within the
patients home
I'VE call attention to the fact that
tuberculosis is the most fatal OF all
diseases carrying off a larger per-
centage Of our citizens than any
other; that it's most fatal effects are
seen In the young and middle aged
whose lives are most valuable to the
community. tuberculosis is a prev
entable disease, $50 cases now exist
In this county with an average of 65
death a year Of those whose lives can
be saved by the application of ade-
quate preventive measures. We call
attention to the fact that a survey
made by the federal government at its
own expense has given to the people
of this county special and peculiar
facilities of combating the disease and

Police Court Chronicle

Much sympathy was expressed for Dan
Mallon as he searched the sidewalk near
Front and Dauphin streets for IS gold
piece.
The first passer-by on seeing Dan on
hands and knees with a lighted match de-
clared it was too bad" He struck a match
and Joined in the hunt. The flicker OF the
flame showed a trace of tears in Dams
eyes.
Another man happened along. His
curiosity was aroused by the two men
searching the sidewalk. He struck a match
and Joined in the hunt Dan searched the
gutter and even the street. Just as his
matches were exhausted two other men
came along. Fortunately each had a box of
matches. They willingly contributed them
for the search and Joined In it themselves
The sight of five men searching the
street with the aid Of lighted matches soon
attracted half n dozen others As there
were indications that traffic might be
blocked a cop paused to investigate.
He was sorry. too. on learning that Dan
was searching for S5 gold piece.
Where did you lose it?" asked the blue
coat
"oh, didn't lose any" said Dan, "I was
just lookin' fer one" All the matches went
out at once
Run him in," shouted the sympathizers.
The cop took Dan by the neck and ran him
straight to the Trenton avenue and Dauphin
street station.
When Magistrate Dietz heard of the
| trouble, he gave Dan a lecture and made
| him apologize to several of the men who
| had aided him in the hunt for the mythical
