Unrest: the Remedy.

vinton Eagle: Unrest, unrest all
over the world, and so 1t will be as
long as life is materialistic, education
is intellectual, society is devoted to
show and tinsel, and humanity is In
tent upon chasing the dollar all the
time it can spare. To do away with
unrest we will have to turn over
new leaf. 1t will never subside while
we pursue our present manner OF
living and thinking. There is no
sense in rigging up this little panacea
and that, for unrest does not yield to
specific remedy. The cure is constf-
tutional Christ made two things
essential elements of a true life:
Peace and purity. AS long as we
quarrel and think vile stuff the uii-
rest will continue. 1t matters not
how many drives may be made, or
how many appeals there may be, or
how much money raised, the unrest
will remain as long as peace and purity
do not constitute the program of life.

PLAN LARGE CAMPAIGN

Educate People Against Plague
and Assist Those Who are
Victims Of It

A survey Of the country shows the
United States is face to face with a.
condition more menacing to its people!
than actual warfare, according to tho
report of the executive committee OF
the National tuberculosis associar
ton
The survey shows an annual death
rate from tuberculosis in the United
States of 10000, and more than 1900.
600 active cases of the disease in the
nation.
To combat and prevent the spread
Of the disease, an intensive national
campaign is necessary it was asserted.
Funds for the campaign will be
sought by ten-day sale Of Red Cross
seals, beginning Dec. 1. The total OF
the several state budgets will be more
than $4,000, 900.
During the discussions. attention
was called to the revelations of the
wartime medical examination boards.
made up largely of members of the
association. Official figures were
cied, showing that Of the men called
to the colors nearly 100000 were tuber-
culous.
It was pointed out that the death
rate Of 10000 year from one pre-
ventable disease means the sacrifice
of more lives than the United States
army lost in the year 1t was actively
engaged in the war.
In a statement of conditions In the
country, the association said:
"The unsupported cases of tubercu-
losis greatly exceed the known evil
dence Of this, having been obtained by
the examination of 10000 residents
of birmingham, Mass. The percentage
shown there indicates 100000 un-
suspected cases, which, unless precau-
tons are taken, will add materially to
the prevalence of the disease.
Experts comprising the executive
board of the association that Is lead
ing the fight against tuberculosis also
announced that they had formulated an
| educational campaign for the coming
year. This, they said, would extend
| to every part of the country, with q
| view of impressing on the people that
! tuberculosis is preventable and cur
able, and of inducing them to take
! measures to protect themselves and
| those with whom they come in con-
! tact.
| "Plans 60 care for all affected per
sons will be pressed and an appeal
will be made to establish more dispen-
! saries, hospitals md sanitoriums. Spe-
cial efforts will be devoted, it was
said, to search out unsupported cases.
