The citizens OF Knoxville worked
hard before the last legislature to get
a normal school established here but
failed. Talk Of making it home for
epileptics aroused much opposition BY

The American people, in common
with the nations of Europe, are be-
coming aroused to the critical inpor-
tance of the problem of vitality and
conservation of health as the neces-
sary factor in re-es,ablishing the
world after the devastation and de-
structicn caused by the war. OF all
the preventable diseases, tuberculosis
takes perhaps the first place in impor-
tance. For that reason | view with
keeneSt sympathy and approval the
splendid work which the National Tu-

and trust that the response of the
American people in the Christmas Sea-
