GOVERNOR ROBERTS PLEDoEs
STATE AID IN FIGHT FOR BET
TER COMMUNITY HEALTH.

Endorsed by Governor Roberts and
supported by the State Departments
Of Health, Charities and Education, the
Tennessee Anti-Tuberculosi Associa-
ton will open its tenth annual cam
paign on December 1st to make Ten
nessee the healthiest state in the
Union. The society does not confine
it's health fight to tuberculosis alone,
according to its annual report which
has just been completed, but 1t also Is

lie health problem and its nurses and
workers are not only authorities ON
the deadly little "T-B" germ. but they
ale also posted on every matter con-
corning community health.
A year ago the efforts Of the Asso-
citation were directed towards fighting
the Flu" Thousands of pamphlets
were distributed and hundreds OF talks
were made by the officials and work
ers of the society. This was because
the society fights any condition which
lowers the vitality of the public, for
it is when folks feel worn out and run
down that the tuberculosis germ gets
to work.
According to DR. Olin West, Secre-
tary OF the State Board Of Health, it
is probable that everyone has tuber.
culosis at one time or another during
their life. Clean living saves a great
number OF people, but the fact remains
that this scourge kills one of every ten
people who die In this country.
Tuberculosis Is comfortable, prevent.

means that you are not only helping
to fight this plague, but that you are
helping the state to raise healthier
children, teaching people to care for
their own health and in turn you are
guaranteeing yourself better health.

NEGOTIATIONS BY
COAL MINERS IN
PROGRESS TODAY
Operators And Union Heads
Accept Invitation to Meet
At Capital.
SLOW PROGRESS
is ANTICIPATED
Restrictions on Fuel Are To
Remain in Force Until
Adjustment Reached.

A conference for the purpose of eft
fecting an adjustment of the differen-
ces between the coal miners and the
operators is being held in Washing
ton today (Friday.) Both the lead
ers of the United Mine Workers and
the operators are in attendance, and
government officials are hoping that a
satisfactory settlement may be arriv-
ed at, though it is expected that the
negotiations will be long drawn out.
The conference is the result of the
resembling order issued by the mine
workers leaders Tuesday in COM
pliance with the mandate by Federal
Judge Anderson directing that the
strike be called off. A seventeen
hour debate by the miners council re-
suited in the decision to call off the
strike The only statement issued
by the council came from the presi-
dent, John L. Lewis, who said, eve
are Americans. We cannot fight our
government. That is all"
1t is stated that the resumption of
work on the part Of the striking min
ers is slow, due no doubt to the fact
that they are awaiting the action of
The conference today. A general re-
turn is not expected before next

it is announced that the restric-
tions which have been placed in eff
feet by the fuel administration will
remain in effect until adequate pro-
duction is assured again. Maximum
prices and preferential lists will no
doubt remain in force during the ne
gotiations.

THE PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE.

The PUBLIC HEALTH NOHSE.
The Public Health Nurse is more
than a nurse, she Is teacher, an ex
per. On sanitary conditions, and like
the physician must be able to seek
out the causes of disease in com
munity and do away with them. The
Tennessee Anti-Tuberculosis Associa
ton has four such nurses, and it is for
these reasons that J. P Kranz, execu-
tive secretary Of that society, counts
himself as being one OF the most fortu-
nate of men.
There isn't any sort Of commun.
lty health condition which our nurses
are unable to seek out and cope with"
said Kranz in recent health confer
ence. THE reports which they turn
in to county health boards would do
credit to sanitary engineer Because
Of their tremendously vide experience
they are entertaining as teachers and
any one of them may be quoted as an
authority on public health"
"These nurses are hard to get and
still harder to keep. Since few nurses
have the training necessary for this
work and since the National Tubercu
losis Association and its 1000 affiliated
organizations throughout the country
constantly are calling for this type Of
a nurse, the Tennessee society may
consider itself fortunate in having one
OF the best ssaffs OF workers in the
country
"Iast year four nurses visited every
county bringing their message Of hope
and health Next year they must do
the ssame and that is why the Red
Cross Cluistnaa Seal campaign must
be larger this yea. than ever before"

rio may be taken away. 1t is heri.
tage for all civilized peoples"

Canada, New Zealand, Australia and
Belgium.
In the midst Of these memorials the
Southern Methodist Church will be
erected. 1t will contain library
reading room and social equipment,
in addition to its auditorium and
class rooms.
"Ypres will always be a mecca for
travellers" said DR.. Beauehamp.
Thousands and millions will flock to

and the surrounding territory, but II
will also serve these visitors"

Relief Stations Established.

Dr. Beauchamp reported that thou.
sands of children will freeze to death
this winter, because the Germans
flooded the mines and filled them with
concrete, thus making it impossible
for the people to obtain fuel.
Children, with their mothers" said
Or. Beauohamp, ARE now living In
the abandoned trenches and dug-outs
left by the enemy
In order to cope with the situation
the Methodists have arranged to open
relief stations at Ypres, st. Quentin,
Montdidier, Belgrade and other points.
A full contingent of physicians,
nurses, directors and social workers
will be sent abroad as soon as they
can be found.
The Church has fund of 5000. 900
for European construction work. This
will be spent in Servia, France, Bel

UNCLE SAM PAYING HIS DEBTS

Because Of Rapldity Of Payment Of
His Obligations-Now
Creditor Nation.

If you were asked to lend money to
private citizen you would ask:
"What are this mans prospects? Is
his business showing a satisfactory
growth? Is he paying off his debts
and pilng up surplus?
When you are asked to lend your
money to Uncle Sam you can safely
ask the same questions. The Ameri'

other great loan. Therefore, now is
the time to satisfy yourself that Uncle

broke out, the nation owed four billion
dollars ($4,O00000,000 abroad and
had to pay interest on that amount

Now all but about one-fourth of this
big debt has been paid off, and the
government of the United States has

ROOSEvELT'S DEPARTING
WORDS TO HIS C0UNTRYMEN

Col. Roosevelt died about 4 o'clock
on the morning of January 6. The
previous evening at a great patriotic
rally in the New York Hlppodrome a
message was read from him, written
especially for the occasion. In 1t was
this striking sentence:
eve have room for but one flag, the
American flag, and this excludes the
red flag, which symbollzes all wars
against liberty and civilization just as
much as It excludes any foreign flag
Of nation to which we are hostile,
and we have room for but one
soul loyalty, and that Is loyalty to the
American people"

and the masters of food supplies
thought they knew that Germany
would stand out for many months.
Now then, to suppose a case. II
some one had come to you on october
l. with proposition to end the war
within six weeks by complete and
overwhelming victory on condition that
you would subscribe literally for Vic
tory bonds in the spring Of 1919, you
would have replied as follows:
"Say, end the war this fall and stop
the killing and manning Of our boys,
compel Germany to accept our terms
and let the American soldiers begin to
head for home, and I'll pledge my last
dollar for the loan that is needed to
clean up expenses"
That's how you felt on October 1,
1913, and now that all the miracles
have come to pass, are you going to
be grateful or forgetful?
You are now asked to help finance
(by merely lending on favorable terms
and not giving) the final and gigantic
expenditures which brought victory
months ahead of the schedule.
If we had lost the war, what would
you be paying this spring and TO
whom? How's your memory? Did you
feel certain, just year ago today,
that Germany could be prevented from
debating terms to the whole world?
How about a loyal parent who re-
fuses to pay doctor bill because the
child gets well instead Of dying?
When you tackle big job do you
stick to the finish, or do you 20 fishing
and permit some more dependable
man to come in and put on the roof
and chimney?
Do you experience symptoms Of
morality only when the doctor Is seat
ell at the bedside?
When you start to go somewhere.
do you travel four-fifths Of the way
ard then flop by the wayside7
Can you be patriotic when the band
Is not playing?
We are settling up big job, so
don't queer your war record at the
eleventh hour by being q gutter.
