6ANY WHITE PLAGUE DEATHS
erSOnS Infected Often I'm
aware They Have Disease.
Per Cent Deaths Due
TO A.lment, Brown Asserts.

ErFew persons in Topeka are aware
the city public health department
operates a free tuberculosis clinic, it
was said at the city hall today.
But there is clinic room in the
city building where DR.. r. J. Miller
assisted by nurse, conducts eXamina-
tions for tuberculosis every Friday
afternoon between 8 and o'clock. To
obtain this service it is only necessary
to call the health department, make
an appointment, and then so to the
clinic for the examination. No fee is
charged 1t is a service furnished To-
peka citizens who are wise enough to
avail themselves of the opportunity to
learn whether they are in perfect con-
dition.
The tests consist Of physical eX-
Hminatfons and the microscopic eX-
animation of sputum. In the most
modern tubercular tests. an X-ray is
used. However, the city has never had
the 500 necessary to purchase even
a medium quality apparatus. Still
the other tests are generally found to
be all that is necessary.
Not Aware OF Disease.
"A rather startling disclosure result
ing from recent tubercular campaigns
was the knowledge that every year
many deaths occur from tuberculosis
in which the person who died was
never aware that he was infected with
this most dangerous of all diseases. IN
the opinion of DR.. Earl C. Brown,
city health officer the lives of many
of these persons might have been
saved had they been examined some
place. resulting in learning of the pres
cnce of the disease and subsequent
treatment which would probably have
saved their lives
s A thing that cannot be estimated Is
the number of other persons the in
fected one might have innocently in
fected This danger of being the cause
of the infection of others, says Doctor
Hrown.- would have been avoided had
they been aware themselves of the
presence Of the disease.
Fatal Percentage Big.
Doctor Brown quoted figures indi-
eating that 4 per cent of all deaths
in the United States were due to tu-
berculosis; that 33 per cent of all
deaths between the ages of l > and 45
were due to this disease; and that 80
per cent of all post mortem eXamina
tons indicated the presence of active
tuberculosis or disclosed old LESSONS,
completely healed, yet indicating the
former presence of the disease.
tuberculosis is Il germ disease, the
health officer stated. Injection is due
to contact with the germs. The germs
viii not survive sunlight or heat but
viii survive for months in a zero tenn
perature.
Recent examinations at the clinic
found three persons tubercular out of
twelve examined. 1t was a surprise
To these to learn that their illneSs
Vas caused By tuberculosis.

Pheasant Roast, Cold

Pluck, draw and singe a brace of pheasants, wipe them with dry cloth, truss them firmly, lard them or tie round the breasts a slice of fat bacon. Flour them we'll, put them in a hot oven and haste Hberally. When they are done enough, remove the ba- con, set aside to cool. To carve, fix the fork in the centre of the breast, cut slices off evenly and thin1y on either side. Should there be more guests to partake of the cold roast pheasant than these slices will satisfy, disengage the legs and wings in the same manner as Is done when carving g boiled fowl In taking aff the wings be careful not to cut too near the neck; If you do you will hit upon the neckbone, from which the wings must be separated. Cut off the merry thought by passing the knife under 1t towards the neck. Cut the other parts as for fowl The breast. wings and merry-thought of a pheasant are the most highly prized. but the leg has a superb flavor.

COLONIAL RECEPTION.

Monday afternoon In Varuna hall, Miss May Halls children's class gave their annual colonial reception. A carefully arranged program of 'Ye olden tyne" dances in white wigs and gorgeous costumes was followed by patriotic anI modern dances and held the attention and delighted the large audience from I to D. m.
 The color effects of the colonial gowns in the graceful minuet were fascinating and keen pleasure was seen upon the faces of those pres ent.
 The tiniest couple, Martha and George Washington, with gracious manners and courtly bows, received all the class who advanced in twos with measured step. The expressional dancing showed most careful train ing.
 The dances were beautifully exe- cuted and vigorously encored. A patriotic dance with. Star Spangle6 Banner was persistently encored. AS was also the ballet duet by two small CT artists who danced particularly well.

REGRETS LACK OF OLD TIME ACTORS
Walter Pritchard Eaton Speaks Interestingly at The
 Stratfield.

Brought to the city by Miss Grace Dalrymple Clarke and her company of Student Players, Walter Pritchard Eaton spoke most interestingly at The Stratfield last evening on What We Know About Acting" Mr Eaton en- joys an envialbIe reputation as a, critic, author and lecturer and dis loursed authoritatively on his sub ject.
 He emphasized the fact that no one, no matter how ignorant, ever hesitat- ed to critic1se acting This despite the fact that the art of acting is Sone of the most difficult of the fine arts. An actor has nothing but himself with which to work, while the opponents of the other parts have various me dtums through which they put their talents before the public. One of the most common errors is the confusion of the actors personality with his i'm perSOnatiOn.
 Mir. Eaton laid great stress on the absolute necessity of technic. A person might possess the needed sen sibility and the intelligence to DOT tray a role, but if the technic is lacking the impersonation would be an absolute failure. One of an ac- tors biggest assets is personality, and
 
 utmost of what he has. He cited one or two instances as an illustration of this statement. Miss Maude Adams has personality that almost oblit- crates her lack of equipment in the matter of the other essentials Many who have nothing but personality are successful for time, but they are usually found out and then are fin ished.
 He spoke respectfully of the fact that we have few of the old time school of actors at the present day They were trained, possessed a spIen- did technical equipment and had great repertoires, One way to bring ! back the high standards of these men and women might be through the en- couragement of amateur productions In the number of Little Theater and community theater projects started in this country previous to the breaking out of the war, MT. Eaton sees a ray of hope. He feels that in this way there may be a recrudescence in the real art of acting
