attack against the disease along other
lines began.
Education became the watchWord of
this campaign not dull, uninteresting
textbook, dry-as-dust lecture stuff, but
a graphic and to some degree sensa-
tional presentation of the subject. The
health exhibit came into being, illus
trated lectures were given. A second
state commission was appointed, re-
sulting in the organization of the Wis
consin Anti ubepculo association
in fuldllment Of pledge made to the
group Of Wisconsin cities who volun-
tarily taxed themselves to send Wis
consin's first tuberculosis exhibit to
Washington during the international
Congress on Tuberculosis. Support to
this project was given with the ex-
press understanding that in return
Wisconsin forces against tuberculosis
should be organized on state basis.
Entire State Enlisted.
Thus from the first the Wisconsin
Anti-Tuberculosis association has been
a statewide movement, meeting a
statewide need, and deriving its au-
thority directly from the people whose
interests it serves. Even in it's method
Of financing the work 1t ties itself up
in the closest possible way with the
people of the state and asks them
each year for their continued endorse
ment of the work that is being carried
on for them and in their name. With
the Red Cross Christmas seal, the asso-
citation raises practically every cent
that it spends, carries the message of
health to every person who buys or
sells seal, and places in their hands
"a ballot for the continuance of the
associations organized fight against
tuberculosis and other preventable dis
eases.
! The first Red Cross Christmas seal
sale was held in December, 1908, to.
raise funds for financing the month
old organization which then had its.
headquarters in the private Office of
DIR. Hoyt q. nearholt, then chairman
of the publicity committee and for the
last ten years executive secretary OF
the association The sale brought in
a little over $4,000 and with a cart

the tuberculosis committee Of the New

The first annual meeting of the Wis
consin Anti-Tuberculosis association
was held in a Hotel Pfister bed
room and the room, small though
it was, was not crowded. At the
dinner session of the annual meeting
this year over 400 people from all
parts of the state, including delegates
sent by mayors and county boards of
supervisors, health officers, county
and city superintendent Of schools,
public health nurses, sanatorium
superintendent and trustees. and
state officials, gathered around the
long tables and listened to speakers
of nationwide reputation from New

owns its own home, the Health Service
building at 558 Jefferson street, Mil

a great bargain and which gives office,
class and lecture room for the rapidly
expanding work of the organization.
Instead Of an $4,000 seal sale, the cam

amount $4,000 will be used to pay off
the small debt on the building.
The entire program of the Wiscon-

on business basis. That it has
grown to be "big business" is due to
the fact that it has succeeded in con-

+
W healthiest state in the union to
q live in?
Nature has given it d great start.
Climate, wholesome country air, fer.
tile plains and valleys, lakes and
wooded hills make it splendid place
both to work and play in. Add to
these its wealth of dairy products
body building grains. and other food
resources, and what state in the union
can hope to compete with it for health
honors? That is, of course, providing
the indomitable Wisconsin spirit gets
onto the job with real earnestness and
enthusiasm and really makes up its
mind that disease must go. And the
rapid strides which health work is
making in Wisconsin give every evil
dence that the people are awake to
the great possibilities that lie within
reach.
1t was with. the vision Of making
Wisconsin the safest place of all the
world to live in, of arousing the people
the great natural resources in which
the state abounds and to the costli
ness Of allowing them to go to waste,
that the organized campaign against
tuberculosis was launched about de-
cade and half ago. The growth Of
the movement reads like a romance
It is to a large degree the history of
the Wisconsin Anti tuberculosis assoc
citation. for the state association was
organized in November, 1908, as the
disqualification of the effort which had
been made for several years preced-
ing, in Milwaukee, in Madison, and
here and there to a less extent in sew
eral other cities Of the state to arouse
/ a public interest in the subject of
tuberculosis.
In Pioneer Days.
When the little handful of public
spirited, far-visioned medicalumen, uni
versity men, and interested laymen
(the number in each group was very
smalD took up their self-imposed task
Of waging war Oh tuberculosis in Wis
consin, the subject was surrounded
with superstition. tuberculosis was
thought to be sure death, to be hered-
itary, and to be a sort of divine vista
tion which could not be avoided The
little group of interested men knew
differently Medical science had dis
covered that tuberculosis was both
durable and preventable. It knew that
the reason the disease so often ran
in families lay in its contagious ma
ture and in the fact that people who
had the disease did gnot take the
proper precautions to prevent its
spread, largely because they did not
know anything about these precau-
lions. The big task was to pass the
information in the possession of med
ical men on to the men, women and
children all over the state who were,
or might be in need of it.
The first big step in the prelim-
mary campaign before the forces took
organized form was the governors ap-
pointment of the state commission on
tuberculosis which resulted in the
building of the state sanatorium.
Co-incident with this forward step, the

The question OF mandates Tor vari-
Gus parts OF Turkey Is before the

sentiment is favorable TO the United

be conditioned on the submission OF
the question to congress.
President Wilson's recommendation
relative to accepting 4 mandate for

upon the report OF q commission ere
