900 thru the sale of the Christmas seals to carry on the work of com batting this awful disease.
 A fact which should appeal to the laboring classes is that the economic loss in Jefferson county alone due to tuberculosis amounted to more than $813,000 annually, computing the loss at the extremely low wage of $3 per day for each worker.
 The people cannot afford to ignore this appalling condition. The asso- citation is not ascking for charity, but is asking that we contribute our support toward insuring the lives of the laboring man and his family against the ravages of a presentable disease.
 It is, unfortunately, true that in- adequate wage and the high cost of all the necessities of life bring about a condition among our work CTS that is often conducive to dis ease. We cannot, therefore. afford to ignore an opportunity, when it presents itself, to improve our liv- ing conditions and prevent the econo- mic loss due to the inability of the laborer to produce that which is necessary to maintain his family.
 Buy Christmas seals and help the cause of humanity.

Columbus Baseball Club Again May
 Be Trained Here

The Columbus, American associa- tion baseball team, again may train in Pine Bluff. Secretary E. B. Bloom of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday received word from Joe Tinker, president and manager of the club, saying that he would like to train here and asking if arrange ments could be made. Secretary Bloom will take the matter of ob- taining the Athletic fieldl for this purpose before the school board at once. he said.
 Tinker's letter is as follows:
 "The Columbus baseball club will again train in the South the coming spring and having in mind the hos Pine Bluff in the spring of 1917. we are writing to ascertain if it will be consistent for us to come there again in 1920. For the past two seasons there seems to have been something lacking in our team during the spring, and we have come to the conclusion that Southern training trip is what we need.
 "Will you kindly let us know if arrangements can again be made for the Columbus club to train in Pine Bluff. If so. can we secure a guar antee, for certain number of exhi- bition games, to be arraneed by the local people who may handle. the proposition. Naturally there will be considerable expense attached to a trip of this character and we want to arrange all the games possible, so as to get back some of the money which must be expended to get the team into shape. We would want to remain in Pine Bluff for a matter of possibly three weeks.
 ''If the above meets with your ap- proval kindly let us hear from YOU.
 "JOS. E. TINKER"

One of Every Nine Deaths Here Due
 to Tuberculosis

One out of every nine deaths in the city of Pine Bluff is due to tu- bereulosis. Careful investigations land reliable statistics prove that where sanitary conditions are im- proved the rate of mortality decreas- les. This accounts for the fact That it is lower in the city than in |the country, where the rate is one |n seven. However there remains [much to be done in the way of bet
 ter living conditions in the cities. EIhe people are just beginning to
 eearn! how they may guard against the insidious advances of tuberculo-
 sls Trained workers are studying earefullv the diseases and the condi- E!!ons which produce it, and in locali- tles where methods of prevention are
 more closely followed, there have 'peen very marked decreases in the fate of mortality.
