TUBERCULOSIS
CAUSED MORE
DEATHS THAN WAR
Startling Figures Presented
BY National Association
Following Health Survey

That the United States faced a
greater loss from on invisible enemy
than she did from her war activities
oversee is shown in an announcement
just issued by the National Tubercu-
losis Association Headquarters, fol-
lowing country wide health survey.
Total American deaths in the
World War amounted to 67,882 sol
diers sailors and marines. Figures
just tabulated at headquarters Of the
National tuberculosis Association
show that for the period in which
this country was engaged in war APP
proximately 100000 persons died
from tuberculosis.
much of the numerous death toll
in this country could be prevented"
said Dr.. Victor C. Vaughan, presi-
dent of the National tuberculosis
Association who will sponsor the
Red Cross Christmas seal sale. "Our
data received from health experts
throughout the United States show
more than million persons are suf-
fering from the white plague today.
"War bulks large and takes pos
session of the stage. 1t is spectacu-
lar and therefore attracts atten-
ton. But tuberculosis, even though
it bulks larger, is an unseen enemy
and we are liwkely to pass by I'M
needing.
"Shot and shell main and cripple;
the tubercle bacillus saps and under
mines. Shot and shell come crashing
through your home and you rebuild
your house. The tubercle bacillus
sneaks in and with pitiless tenacity
fingers on until it sweeps your table
bare and leaves your children pale
and listless."
More than 1900 state and city anti
tuberculosis leagues and associations
join the national organization in its |
countrywide crusade, which will cul-
inmate in the Red Cross Christmas
seal sale, from which funds to carry
on the work are chiefly derived. 1t
is estimated that $6,500,000 will be
needed to carry out the program
planned.

A. E. F. Man Receivers
Money That Strayed

One Of the matters which some dis
charged service men may have for
adjustment is that OF A. E. F. re-
mittances, from the Y. M. C. A. which
have never reached their destination.
One OF these has been satisfactorily
arranged in Fairmont this week. 1t
was in no way the fault of the Y. M.
c. A. since the order which was pur-
chased from an Express Company
was lost in transmission between New
York and Fairmont, in 1918.
Any man who has matter of this
SOFT should communicate at once with
Lewis S. Thomas, Demobilization Sec.
retary Fairmont, stating the num-
Der on his receipt, the date of the
purchase Of the order, the name of the
person in whose favor the order was
drawn, and the place, although this
last is not important If the receipt
has been lost, the names OF the send
er and payee should be given with
the approximate date OF the purchase
Of the order and the place where. the
purchase was made.
1t is very probable that many of
the Y. M, c. A. offices In New York
suffered the same mishap as that suf-
fered by the Fairmont order. The
amount OF money sent over from
France through the medium of the
Y. NJ G. A. A. E. F. remittances ran
up into the millions, for which re-
cefpts were issued.

men, sand car, the first to be moved
over the lines of the Pittsburgh Rail
ways company since the car mems
strike was declared eleven days ago.
left the barns at 1925 o'clock this af-
ternoon bound for down town. A
great crowd of striking motormen and
conductors and their friends gathered
about the barn, but there was NO dis
order. 1t was said passenger cars
would be started soon.
After proceeding down Forbes
street block from the barn. several
bricks were thrown and a fight en-
sued between strikers and bystanders.
The car stopped and then returned to
the barn.
At one forty o'clock the sand car
with one window broken by brick
again left the barn. A Acrowd OF three
thousand persons hooted and yelled
but there was no further outbreak.
Four minutes later passenger car
of the Bloomfield rout left the barn
and followed down town. Il WAS
manned by motorman conductor and
six plain clothes men.
The trouble when the sand car
first left the barn started when the
motorman got out to adjust the
fender. A man in the crowd threw
. brick and another was hurled back
from the roof OF a shed. The motor
man was uninjured and police drove
back the crowd.
After two o'clock as the passenger
car was going toward the downtown
section, 1t had ten passengers ,aboard
when it had gone seven blocks.
When the passengers had reached

ELEANOR PR|CKETT
Won HOULT PRIZE
At 81 She Was One of the
Liveliest at Family
Reunion.
BY E. E. MERepITA


There is no forecasting Of what
will happen with any degree of GER
tainty no matter how well informed
tho newsmonger may be or how con-
scientious in the performance of his
duty. The West Virgmian pictured
Aunt" Sarah Jane Watkins as the
Oldest active Houltess Oh Saturday
evening and predicted that she
would be the Oldest woman of the
Hoult Family at the Sunday reunion.
But that was not so! Eleanor Prick
EFT, of Barrackville, aged 81, carried
off that honor and was awarded a
prize. The prize for the Oldest man
went to Theodore McElfresh. Aunt
Sarah Jane Watkins, however, never
had happier day for all her child
ren and grand children were around
here-the first time that all the
children have been together since
her husbands death.
Eleanor Prickett had been reported
as unable to attend the reunion on
last Friday. But some of the Hoults
down at Hoult argued that she might
not feel strong enough for the
street car ride when she would come
IL an auto was provided. Taking this
chance machine called for her and
sure enough she was present and en-
joyed the day certainly as well as
anyone there, fitting around like a
girl of sixteen.
The Hoult Family Reunion includ-
es many other leading families of
Northern West virginia-among
them the Pricketts, the McElfreshs
Iand the Watktnses. All of these
families were well represented at the
runion held Sunday, making it the
largest attendance at any Of the sew
en- similar occasions, and in many
ways the most enjoyable reunion Of
them all.
The speakers included Hon. o. s.
Mckinney, Senator w. s. Meredith,
Rev. L. A. McNemar, Mayor Anthony
Bowen, and w. B. Hoult, president
Of the Hoult Reunion Association Of
Illinois. The music was provided by
