War Tuberculosis Fund to Fight
White Plague

Every Red Cross Christmas Seal
you buy is a bullet in a winning war
That our war in Europe will make
more tuberculosis at home because
of the rigors and dangers of army
life, is certain from the experiences
of England, France, Canada and Ger
many. This means that no one can
afford to let the campaign against tu-
berculosis in the United States suf-
fer.
This war on tuberculosis is support
ed by the sale of Red Cross Christmas
Seals and every seal that is bought is
a bullet in a winning war. For the
sake of your family, yourself, your
neighbors and the millions who are
sick, buy Red Cross Seals to help to
extend this war against tuberculosis.
If you have not had an opportunity
to buy seals send your remittance to
The Kansas Association for the Study
and Prevention of Tuberculosis, Cen
trail Bank Bldg, Topeka, Kansas, and
seal for each cent of the remittance
wiz be sent you and the money viii
aid IN the war on the white plague.

At a mass meeting attended by
5000 persons in Omaha, the other
night, a resolution was passed pledg-
ing the State of Nebraska to support
every movement undertaken by the
United States during the war. A tele-
gram to this effect was sent to Presi-
dent Wilson. Of course, nobody has
ever doubted, as nobody has ever
had occasion to doubt, the loyalty of
Nebraska, but the meeting, the reso-
luton, and the telegram are never
thless significant, in view of the fact
that the alien enemy has been quite
active in that state since beginning of
last April. 1t is worth while to men
ton in this connection that the reso-
luton was voted, and the telegram
was sent, after Lafayette Young, the
able Des Moines editor, had made a
speech in which h said there was no
longer room in America for Germans
who had not become American citi-
zens in the full meaning of the term.

Every effort is being made by the
Union Pacific Railroad to eliminate
the danger of Outomobilists at grade
crossings, but according to a state
ment issued by. J. M. Guild, Safety
Agent of that railroad, the chief pro
lection against such accidents lies
with the automobiles themselves.
He points out that unless automobile
drivers obey the injunction-STOP-
LOOK and LISTEN crossing pro-
lection is of very little value.
During the past year the Union
Pacific Railroad spent over $4,000
in the maintainence of approaches to
grade crossings IN the state of Kan
sas In compliance with the law,
known as Housebil No. %.
In the state of Kansas alone, the
/ Union Pacific railroad has forty-three
crossing protected by bells, one is
protected by wigwag signal and two
| by gates and at five crossings special
watchmen are stationed in addition
to the standard crossing signs.
In the period from January 1st to
| July 1st there were eighteen automo-
| bile accidents at grade crossings on
| the railroad IN Kansas At none of
/ these crossings was the view Of the
railroad INSTRUCTED and IN sixteen of
the eighteen cases the accident oc-
CURED during daylight In three of
the accidents the crossing was pro-
| tected by bells and IN one case the
crossing was protected by watch
man.
Mr. Guild urges that the Kansas
| legislature should back up the cam
| paign to get automobile drivers to be
more careful when crossing railroad
tracks by passing a law making Is
necessary that they should STOP
Hook AND LISTEN.

"Thc United States has 200 railroads

dollars today in useless duplication OF

Britain can run her railroads better
and cheaper than we can. We must
run our roads for service, not for money
making"
Driftin9 Toward FeudaI System.
Some of the ideas advanced by DR.
Howe were that the state owed a mar
house to live in equally as much as
an education. He denounced the ten
aments Of our cities as blot on dem
ocracy. Likewise he declared that we
are drifting to a feudal system in oul
growing large estates and ever in
creasing class Of renters. This must
be prevented by building up these es-
tates into farms small enough for q
man to own servants have no place

After declaring that the present wal
