Inc mississippi tuberculosis
Association, affiliated with the
National tuberculosis Association
in a nation wide crusade against
the white plague, is preparing for
the biggest Red Cross Christmas
Seal Sale on record. AS a/result
the double barred cross, the en-
blem of the anti-tuberculosis
fighting forces will soon flame
from the windows Of all dwell
ings, of business firms, Of public
buildings, in the city; the crimson
beauty of it viii brighten every
street.
What does the symbol mean?"
1T is the visible evidence of
protection against mankind's
greatest enemy"
For more than seventeen years
this emblem has been used as a
symbol of the fight against the
white plague. It was first adopt
ed for this purpose by the Inter-
national Anti Tuberculosis Asso-
citation in Berlin, in October 1902.
It was proposed by DR.. G. Sersiron
of Paris, who evolved the shape of
the cross from the common
Croix de Lorraine and the cross
of the Greek Catholic Church.
It was adopted by the National
tuberculosis Association in 1906.
The influence that led to it's a.
doption in America were first,
because the design is furthest re-
moved from any having a relig-
ious significance; second, because
it is furthest removed from the
well-known emblem used by the
American Red Cross, and also, be-
cause it's wide spread use had al
ready associated it in the public
mind with the tuberculosis move
ment.
The spirit of the drive against
tuberculosis has taken strong hold
and is smashing ahead as few
drives have done in this part of
the state. In fact there is the
same enthusiasm that made those
never-to-be-forgotten drives Of
war-time-and why not? We make
no defense Of the Kaiser, but the
White Plague kills thousands of
Americans, where his soldiers Kill
led hundreds.
America can always protect
herself against an outside foe,
but the insidious enemy that
comes into our homes unawares,
is an infinitely greater evil to
fight. It is this same evil that the
Mississippi Tuberculosis Associa-
ton, affiliated with the National
tuberculosis Association, is con-
centrating all it's forces to over
come.
The proposed budget for Miss
issippi for the work for 1920 calls
for One Hundred Thousand Dol
lars, which includes budgets for
ten counties proposing to raise
Ten Thousand Dollars, each for
local work.
tuberculosis work in Mississ-
ippi is financed chiefly by the
Sale of Red Cross Christmas
Seals.

 If Ban Johnson means that. can promise him one of the most interest," ing baseball fights this game has ever seen," said Huston. '1 also will prom ise both MT. Johnson and the general baseball public that the New York club will not sit idly by and stand for this interference with it's property rights. I will not tell the New York clubs plan of action at this time. but if Mays suspension is kept in force we will take action, and take it quick ly."
 Asking why "Mr. Johnson takes such arbitrary and unprecedented action in the case of. a player acquired by New York" Huston declared that, without going out of the American league. he could poitn out cases without mum Der in which players who had left their clubs after differences had Joined other clubs without protest. 6 s

 The entire St. Mary's team will per form hereafter for. Manager Eddie un- der the name of the Colonials.

 Now if some of the would-be man agers of Norwich will kindly read this. little article and give the Colonials a game they will find out they won't have to send to the subAbase for a scientific walloping; for according to Eddie he has the best bunch of wallop- CTS that ever handed out a Walloping.

 Geers is very apt to win with Don de Lopez at either Columbus or CleYe- land. At Toledo he was second to Peter Billiken in 2:O5 1-4.
 Up to the close of last week none of the racing material in the Bay State Circuit has been able to lower the col OTIS of James Albert and Forest B. park early in, Jnne and has won seven races off the reel. while Gillies has placed four events to the credit of the Mainleaf ftrotter since he turned for the word at Windsor the first week tl July. In addition to always being 2 a trofS Forest B. has perfect racing manners and a brush. that can be used at any part of the mile.

 The Bingara mare Rebecca that won in 2:12 34 at Greenfield, Mass. has had peculiar racing career. Two years ago she won a heat at Cam bridge N. Y. in 2:2f IA and was con sidered marked for life.

WILTON MACHINE co.
 PLAYS AT ASHLAND SUNDAY

Sunday Ashland win line up against the fast Whiton Machine Company team of New London. This team is the leader of the Industrial league in New London and is some fast bunch of players, and we don't think that "A Fan" will notice that the rise and fall of the diamond, which was stated in yesterdays Bulletin as the cause of Hanovers defeat last Sunday will bother this fast team.
 At this weeks meeting of the sh- land A. A. Chairman Faces resigna- ton was read and after a due consid- eration and a statement from him 1t was with much regret that this was accepted. Coach L'HeureauX will now manage the team. A more experienc- ed or better man to handle the boys would be hard to find in this town. Capt. Raney played with Manager L'Heureaux when he first broke into fast company and states that he will give his hearty cooperation to the new management as he did to the old be- cause he is thoroughly satisfied that the new advisor knows the game.
 Mgr L'Heureaux states that he hopes to keep up MT. Faces record of no defeats if possible and he feels confident that Ashland will receive no more defeats this season, and they have received few far. He feels sure that he and the players will be in utmost harmony as he expects no player to do more than his best.

 Tn order to win these races John B. Kelly of the Vesper Boat club of Phil adelphia outrowed Walter Hoover of the Duluth Boat club in the senior event and Kelly's clubmate, Paul Cos ond defeat in the association race. Hoover was heavily backed by Duluth supporters.
 As z result of today's races, Costello and Kelly will meet tomorrow for the American single sculls championship, as Thomas Rooney of Flushing will not defend his title.
 Kelly gave the most convincing ex- hfbition of any oarsman on the lake. He came to the finish line with a length of open water to spare over Hoover The Duluth man pressed Costello hard and might have won this race had he started a strong sprint earlier.
 The Duluth oarsmen won the race for intermediate eight pared scullS with. a length and one-half to spare. Duluth won two races by default, sending the only crew to the starting line of the four pared interm mediate shells and being awarded a victory by the judges in the senior international four pared race when the Crescent for crowdfng near the starting line. club of Washington won the interme diate single sculls and the Washington Canoe club of Washington showed best in the padding races.
