NEW TREATMENT FOR
LEPROSY APPARENTLY
SUCCESSFUL

The United States Public Health
Service has reports of what appears
to be a cure. for leprosy, it was an
nounced by Surgeon General Hugh S.
Cumming yesterday.
Thus one of the worlds most dread
ed nTaladies, regarded as a hopeless
and incurable scourge of humanity
since early history, would seem to
have been conquered by officers of the
Public Health Service in the leper
colony in the Hawaiian Islands.
For some years the belief has been
gaming ground that leprosy could be
cured and encouraging progress Was
made by several investigators. The
starting point for this study was the
observation that now and then the
course of the disease appeared to be
favorably influence treatment with
chaulmoogra OIL The treatment, how
ever, was attended with many diff
culties and could not be carried OUT
in all cases. At this point the Public
Health Service enlisted the co-opera-

chemical department of the College
Of Hawaii and president of that in

made either to isolate the active con-
stituent of this drug, or to devise
means for making its continued ad-
ministration feasible. The latter has
been accomplished by preparing what
is known as an "ethyl ester" from the
Chaulmoogra oil. The treatment has
been carried on at the leprosy investi
cation Station at Kalihi. Hawaii, the
work being directed by DR.. J. T, Nc.
Donald director of the station. The

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION
IN WAUSEON HI-SCHOOL

An investigation carried on in MANY
ways and for long period of time
by the Religious Education Survey
Department of the Interchurch World
Movement of North America. and bv
other associations and organizations
Independently, has revealed a grave
crisis in the methods of religious edu-
cation of the young people of Ameri-
ca. Aroused by this need i'm this city
a group of local citizens last winter
invited Miss May Cowles of Van Vert
whose system of day-school instruc-
tion in religious education in the pub
lie schools has attracted national at
tention to address a mass meeting IN
Wauseon. AS a result of the report
which she gave as to the great sue
cess of the plan in Van Vert a COM
mittee was at that tirre appointed,
consisting of laymen and ministers,
with the Rev. C. F. Evans as chair
man to investigate the desirability
and practicability of introducing a
similar system into the Wauseon
schools.
The committee has ever since that
time been engaged in quietly investi-
eating and studying the matter. And
on last Thursday evening, June 10,
the committee met to report and plan
for the future. 1t was reported that
an available teacher, with wide ex-
perience in Gary and Van Vert had
been discovered, that a considerable
interest in the plan had been manifest
ed and that it should not be dropped.
A subcommittee consisting of Rev.
A. E. Fish, Congregational, Rev. S,
R. Dunham M. E; and Mr.. Johnson,
Supt. of Schools was appointed to go
into details as to curriculum, housing,
securing a teacher and other practical
matters.
This subcommittee met at the High
School Friday afternoon, June IL and
made considerable progress i'm the
way of plans. They decided among
other things, upon the appointment
of another committee, consisting Of
laymen in the several churches of the
city, to investigate the question of ex
pense, to apportion that expense
equitably among the various churche.
and to lay plans for securing the nee
essary funds.
IF carried thru this year, this plal
will place Wauseon in the very fore
front of the best thought of the tim
among leaders both in religious edu
cation and the public schools and vii
go far toward helping to solve tn
grave problem of training our chill
dren for citizenship which is Christial
and therefore truly American.
