Encouraging Report BY
President of Anti
Tuberculosis Society

1t is interesting to note the encour-
aging report made by the president
of the North Dakota Anti-Tuberculos'
is association, Dr. Grassick of Grand
Forks, and read by DR.. Victor j. La
Rose, the vice president at the bien-
NAL meeting Tuesday evening in the
Commercial Club rooms. This asso'
citation, which was organized eight
years ago by few OF the public splr'
tied men and women of the state has
accomplished phenomenal results,
largely through the efforts or Dr.
Grassick, DR.. Fannie Dunn Quain ana
the other officers.
In the report DR.. Grassick tells OF
the aim of the association to carry on
the educational work for the proven
ton of the disease. Lectures. DEM
onstrations, exhibits and the distribu'
ton of literature have been some OF
the methods used to educate the pub
lie that tuberculosis is communicable,
preventable and durable.
1t also told of how the association
worked for the passage OF the laws
governing the public health OF the
state. Five very meritorious meas
ures are the result Of this campaign.
They are: The abolishing of the pub
lie drinking cup; requiring persons
to disinfect secondhand furniture, bed
ding, clothing, ETC., before offering
same for sale; permitting counties TO
appropriate money to prevent the
f,,h n StGta.
by employing visiting nurses, ETC.;
providing for the establishment and
equipment of cottages on the site OF
the sanitarium at Dunseith, by frater-
nal corporations and societies. In
this connection the Masons have built
and equipped a cottage with sixteen
beds and the Workmen have similar
one under construction; providing
for the labelling of meats from animals
affected with contagious or infectious
diseases &. affected meat" when the
same is offered for sale.
A report Of the establishing and
equipping of an open air school for
inmates who wish to avail themselves
of it's facilities was also given. The
expenses for the instructors, books.
etc, are betrayed from the sale Of the
Red Cross Christmas seals. The sue
cess of this school was one Of the
most interesting features Of the re.
port The school work perhaps helps
! to break the monotony of the sanator-
ium life and at the same time opens
opportunities for honorable independ-
emf self support after leaving the in.
stitutitOn
The association work has grown so
extensive that it had hoped to employ
a paid president and secretary, so as
to give all their time to the work, but
the funds are not large enough as yet
to accomplish this and the old ofllc.
ers were elected. "l.u.. .r,

SPECIAL PICTURES FOR
CHILDREN 70 Be SHOWN
Capital City Club Women's Move
ment for Special Children's
Pictures Successful

A movement started two years ago
by the Mothers club Of the capital
city and endorsed by the City Fedora
ton of Womens' clubs, to have special
motion pictures shown for children,
will have it's first try-out Saturday
afternoon, when Arthur Bauer and G.
E. Wingreene of the Orpheum, Bis
marck and Grand theaters will show
at the Grand theater the famous pic
ture "The Wizard of o."
Mrs. w. e. Parsons, chairman OF a
committee from the city federation;
Mrs. e. P. Quain, Mrs. Max Kupitz
and J. NJ. Martin, superintendent OF
the public schools, have been insttru-
mental in pushing the movement.
They are making an appeal to the par
ents for the support in this undertake
ing as the pictures are especially
adapted for the child and quite ex-
pensive, and the management Of the
theaters will be unable to show them
unless the patronage is large enough.
It is the plan to have special mat
inee every Saturday at the Grand
theater at O'Clock. This theater
was chosen as it is fire-proOf and we'll
ventilated. 1t is also centrally To-
Gated and arrangements have been
made for the care Of the children. The
success of the first matinee will de-
pend largely on the continuance of
the pictures. The "Wizzard Of OF"
will not only be attractive to the child
rem, but must appeal to the adult be-
cause Of its fine perturbation. An
admission fee Of 10 cents will be
charged Saturday because Of the
great cost required to produce the
picture. .t .. ..,...1 -...

LABOR SHORTAGE BLOCKS
LUMBER SUPPLY

Present indications point to a great
ly reduced quantity Of timber felled In
New Brunswick during the coming VIM
ter as compared with the ordinary aver
age aggregate. Two reasons are to be
assigned for the anticipated shortage in
the 19l7-ls cut--scarclty IF labor and
transportation difficulties.
The leading operators of the province
are today forecasting an extraordinarily
small total cut, probah y not more than
80 per cent Of that of recent previous
years.
The effect of the ex.s;.ng transporta
lion problem on the numbering industry
Is one easily understood. Recent esti-
mates of the lumber CGt and awaiting
shipment at points In New Brunswick
and the adjacent counties of Nova Scotia
place the total at 400. 900 O00 feet. As
iuming that these figures somewhat ex-
aggerate It is still manifest that there Is
little to encourage operations on any
aStenSive scale in the near future. That
all this lumber IL waiting transportation
i7 due To- shortage OF railway cars and
vessels for the coastwisc trade and the
restrictions now in force against over
sea shipments Were stocks of lumber
now on hand less and prospects for NOV
ing them brighter, greater efforts would
ne made to secure labor for the lumber
camps, for current market prices are
high. both in Canada's upper provinces
and in the United States. one need only
recall that the lumber industry Of New
brunswick represents an annual distri-
button of about $l5,u00.O00 among those
directly and indirectly concerned with
Il to understand how seriously any in
reference with the winters operations in
the woods affects the general economic
life of the rovinCe.--Commcrce Reports
