UTAH MUST JOIN
THE WAR ON
TUBERCULOSIS

tuberculosis is national problem.
Utah is part of the nation and we
cannot as patriotic citizens, afford to
ignore this problem, even though
there is less tuberculosis in this state
than in other parts of the country.
One beneficial effect OF war is the
,guickening of national conscious
ness. We have taken up food conserv-
alton on a national scale. The res
ponse of the nation to Liberty Loan
! drives, the Red Cross campaign, and
the other national movements for the
winning of the war have been re-
violation to attack tuberculosis in the
same magnificent spirit.
For years we have been fighting
tuberculosis in the local piece meal
spirit, each community caring for its
own consumptives in an inadequated
way without much regards for what
other communities may be doing
Even then, we accomplished much
and the death rate from tuberculosis
has steadily declined. But the wal
has brought in its train tremendous
increase our forces to meet this new
condition.
For several years there has beer
agitation for the establishing of &
division on tuberculosis in the nation
al Public Health Service. The demand
for this step is daily becoming more
, insistent. The problem is too big fol
private organizations to handle alone
But until that is done, the privat,
organizations must continue to bea
the burden of the fight, A nation
wide campaign is being launched I,

=, in this crusade against the most in
sidious, most merciless and, whel

RECOGNIZING that the high death
rate and abnormal development
among infants are due largely to
ignorance, the University of Utah
is offering course by correspond
ence through its Extension Division,
designed to enlighten the mothers of
the State, The lessons, every detail
of which is handled by experts, are
simple and comprehensive.
Any mother who will register and
make known the age of her child,
will receive bulletins covering the
vital periods of its life up to two
years Of age. For eXpectant moth
ers, another set of bulletins are
provided which treat intelligently
the prenatal period.
1t is planned later to outline the
lessons which will cover every part
OF the child's life from babyhood &c
youth.
The only fee charged is the nomi
nal registration fee of one dollar.

Lieutenant George A. Stockton, US.

Lieutenant Stockton before accept
ing command of the corps was en-
gagged as an instructor in one OF

he will give instruction at the Uni

In addition to the usual military
instruction which has hitherto pre-
vailed in high school and university
battalions, the throwing of bomb.
and other features of trench war
fare will be taught. This type Of
instruction will fit the U. boys fol
immediate service at the front. il
the need should arise, and will make
it possible for them to qualify al
officers in short time.
In fact. there is a possibility, Lieu
Stockton believes, that the Univers

of the present school year, and tina
the graduates. providing they hav,
passed the instruction successfully
will receive commissions in tn,

Before assuming command OF tn,

bination sales of food commodities
are forbidden with the exception as
stated below. The sale of one or
more food commodities upon condi-

dred girls actively engaged. The
second section has nearly two hun
dred and fifty girls, who devote
their time to knitting. The third
section has about seyenty-five girls
who are kept busy constructing sur
gical bandages.
These girls are required to de-
vote three hours each week to Red
Cross activities, the 1880 hour on
Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday
being given over to the work. The
girls are very interested in this la
Dor and some devote more than the
ordinary three hours, especially the
knitting girls, who may be seen at
almost any time of the day busying
themselves with the gray and olive
drab woods.
Several women prominent in the
Red Cross work in the city are now
aiding the girls as leaders and have
been helping to direct this work un
til leaders are chosen from among
the groups.
Miss Barton of the Domestic Art
is directing the knitting
work. The making of bandages is
under the direction of Miss Lavina
Park, and Miss Esther Nelson, Uni

surgical dressings section.

His birthplace

John Fox, the author, was recently
discussing Longfellow and during the
conversation remarked that the house
where the noted poet was born in
Portland, Maine, is now tenanted by
people of the poorer classes. Mostly
Irish are located in that vicinity
Some time ago a teacher in Portland
was giving a lesson on the life of
the poet.
Finally. after the usual time de-
voted to instruction, she asked;
Where was Lonfellow born?"
A small. red-haired youth waved
his hand vigorously, with an I'M
