AFTER THE WAR;

Have you time in the joyous rush
of Peace To lend an ear to the cry of
the wounded and dying of your state,
as result of the ravages of tuber-
culosis?
Do you know that we are losing
in Mississippi, about seven people
per day. from this disease. 200 per
year?
What are you doing? Some OF
these victims are. perhaps, members
of your families-All of them are
citizens of your State and Nation,
and Brothers in the cause OF human
ity-yet they are dying of a prevent
able disease. dying because some
one has left undone a duty-dying
because of ignorance and neglect.
The state sanatOrium is a modern
one 40 far as it goes, but we have
only forty beds and many hundred
applicants. We need more build
ings. Most of the ones who die
could be saved if they had sana-
tOrium treatment.
The National Association states
that the minimum beds in state
would be one for each death; Mis-
sissippi has one for each sixty
deaths. or one sixtieth of the mini
mum.
Those who are dying of Tubercu-
losis need protection. just as surely
as the victims OF the Lusitania, and
Just as these, we can do nothing to
bring them back, but we can
prevent the recurrence of the dis
asters, and further loss of life.
During one and one-half years of
the cruelest war of ages. where every
conceivable weapon for destruction
of life was brought to play. we of
the United States lost from all
causes. in our arm. less than 1OO,-
900 lives; while during the same
period tuberculosis claimed about

Where The Money Went,

Many of the training camps were
located in the South for climatic
reasons. but there were not wanting
critics to complain that the South
was unduly favored-"all that
money being spent in the SOUTH"
The South, however, got but taste
Of money. as is shown by the reports
OF the quartermaster generals Office.
The purchases for the government
in the period July 26, 1918. to Oc-
tober 26, 1918. can be taken for
illustration. For the Eastern divi-
sion. as far as and including Mary
land, the total is 1892 100000; for
the Western states, $201 900, 900;
for the Southern states. $35 100000;
and for the Mountain and Pacific
states. $12, 100000. This gives the
lions share, or AZ per cent, to the
East and Al per cent. to the West.
The South's portion, a little over
z per cent. This should dispose of
charge that the South has been un-
duly fayored.-Mobile Register.

The Truth About the Revolution
ary War

The outstanding facts about the
Revolutionary War have already
been given in The Progressive Farm
er. George III. the British King
who fought US during the Revolution
was of German blood, having "a
German father. German mother
and a German wife. George | came
to Englanddirect ly from Germany
and never learned to speak English
at all. while George III came to
England from Germany when he
was 81, and married German.
George III was especially taught by
his German mother that he and not
the people of England must rule.
George, be kingn' was the advice
she constantly dinned into his ears.
Coming to the throne. the Kaiser
like, one-man rule is what George
III tried to accomplish; and the war
against the American colonies was
fought in the days when the King of
England controlled the Parliament
not the Parliament the king as
now. Out of S,000,OOO people only
100. 900 could then vote at all. and
there was no equality among these.
AS the London Times. England's
greatest journal, declared recently:
The Declaration of independence
is but one fruit on the tree of British
Liberty. There is some satisfaction
now in recalling that George III had
to hire Hessians and Hanoverians-
German mercenaries-to fight his
battles against the American colon
lists, because Englishmen refused to
serve in Georges war, as they call
ed it. ."-Progressive Farmer.

How To Keep A Sanitary Closet

/. Keep the lids closed.
2. Keep all cracks and holes
closed through which flies might
enter.
3. Keep dirt banked and packed
around closet.
4. If pit caves. dig and line a

3. Use good lime in the pit, a
small amount to be spreaded over
the contents of the pit every one or
two days. especially if water stands
in the pit.
6. There is no harm whatever In
water standing in the pit. The only
thing ia that it increases the odor
and this can be readily overcome
with lime. fresh ashes or Kreso Dip.
Ii may he necessary to move
closet over a new pit in a few years.
Remember To use toilet paper.
Remember that the health and
progress of any community or people
depends on their sanitary surround
ings.
Some people prefer to live in
filth. dirt and disease and actually
resent any effort by he state to lift
them up and help them. They fall
back on the old worn out argument
of personal liberty TO do as they
please. The fact is they have no
more right to live in filth and dis
ease, always sick and a burden on
doctors and the community, than
they have a right to live life of
crime and outlawry. The state has
the same right to protect you from
disease that it has to protect you
from q thief or a murderer. Officers
of health and officers of the law go
hand in hand.
Thank God most people are de-
cent and love cleanliness. good
health and cheer and godliness and
don't think you are interfering with
personal liberty when you wear
your very life away trying to do
something for them.
A few people are such grafters
themselves that they imagine that
the world is one great house for
graft and they go so far sometimes
as to accuse ministers of the gospel
Of grating. They think the Red
Cross, the Y. NJ. G.. A. are grating
schemes. Lord pity them for they

ten acres of land is all right and
sometimes it is not all right. and

CREATION PHOTO
 THEORY PRESENTED

The photodrama of Creation" to be shown at the K. of P. hall, T l.. Washington, tonight depicts in an in- teresting manner the theory of the Bible Students association of the be- ginning of the earth, the growth of vegetation, the formation of coal and minerals, the appearance of animal life and the history of the human race from the creation and fall of man to the present time
 It pictures the experiences of the race in ancient, medieval and modern times, showing how these have been designed to teach lessons conducive to physical, moral and social improvement. It touches on the great war now raging in Europe, representing it as a prelim- mary step in the vast upheaval in hu- man affairs, spoken of in the Bible as the great time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation"
 Then follows a description of the era of peace and righteousness" when na- tions shall learn war no more" and man and his home (the earth) shall reach the ultimate perfection designed by the Creator.

Denver Gets Relief

DENVER, Jan. 12.-Denver received relief from her record cold snap today. After forty eight hours of continuous zero weather the thermometer rose to a maximum of 23 degrees above at o'clock this afternoon. At tonight it had dropped back to nine above with prospects that the zero mark would again be reached before morning.
 Fair weather with moderating tenn peratures is predicted Tor this city and the rocky Mountain region for tomor- row and it is the belief of the gov ernment weather forecaster that to- morrow will see the cold spell in this region entirely broken.
 Trains from the east are from five to fifteen hours late due to storms in the middle west but there is no delay in western traffic into Denver nor in the departure of trains from Denver to the east, which are being sent out despite reported blockades in Nebraska and Kansas.

 The condition of Wornall who, 1t was feared at first, had been 1atally injured, improved throughout today; His lucid intervals became longer ana it was decided tonight to subject the injured man to the ordeal of attempt ing to identify the officer who snot himself. Whistler's body was wheeled into the hospital beside Wornalls peo and the figure unshrouded.
 That's the man." was the laconic statement of Wornall, as he sank back upon his bed with groan.
 While no proof or scarcely an indi- cation had been found that the mur- derer might have had an accomplice, the commanding general tonight or dered that there be no let up in the investigation. The general order for picking up all persons at large Tn the camp has been modified.
 Officials of the army bank, it was said, completed checking up the money in the bank tonight and made their report to the divisional commanders office The exact amount of money obtained in the robbery was not dis closed however.
 Only Small Sum Taken?
 Some army officers declared tonight that only small sum was taken. Their opinion was that Captain Whistler was short of funds and planned to take only enough for his immediate needs. Their theory was borne out by Wor- nails statement that when the man entered the bank he said he was short of money and hated to do it. Another fact tending to confirm their theory is that the body of Winters was found lying on top of a large number of bank notes which had been scattered over the floor in front of the safe.
 The suicide of Captain Whistler was discovered by brother officers who heard the two shots and rushed to the room. They found him lying on the floor, the rifle near by.
 Arrangements of the funerals of the four victims of the tragedy had not been made tonight.
 Army Will Pay Tribute
 Although the murdered men were
