Motion Pictures of Barre Granite.

Editor, Barre Times What in the
world is the matter with the Barre

when it will allow outsiders to come IN
and take motion picture views of its
best quarries in operation under the
title of 'Rock of Ages" which | saw

advertise the views as being taken in
Montpelier, instead of Barre, thereby
robbing Barre of its rightful place

Is Barre dead and Montpelier cutting

Opening of Crusade Against
Consumption in Topeka.

All persons are urged to have full
physical examination at least once, or
preferably twice, year in statement
given out today by Robert D. McGif-
fert, city health commissioner in con-
nection with the issuance of report
on the number of tuberculosis cases
reported in Topeka in the six months
from January l to June 80, this year.
The large number of deaths annual
" from tuberculosis as compared TO
the relatively small number of cases
of the disease reported today prompt
ed the city health department to in
tensify its crusade against the dread
disease, which takes a greater toll IN
lives among Americans every year
than the number of United States sol
diers killed in the world war
The city maintains a clinic where
free tuberculosis examination and
treatment are dispensed. This clinic
is open every Friday afternoon from
5 O'Clock on.

at is especially important that ev-
eryone should look to their health at
this time" said Commissioner AfcGif-
fert today. This department wishes
to urge upon all persons the necessity
of physical examination. Alarming
numbers Of cases of tuberculosis have
resulted from the hardships of war
among the soldiers and from the IN
fluenza epidemics among persons ev-
erywhere.
Soldiers who were gassed during
the war and persons who had influenza
are found to be susceptible to tuber-
culOsis germs. WhOoping cough,
measles and pneumonia are also con-
tributory factors to the disease. We
want TO urge persons who have had
any of these diseases, especially, to be
examined"

Topeka has been making splendid
progress in her fight against tubercu-
losis. as a comparison of death rate
from year to year will show saws the
report. I'm 1918 there were 81 deaths
from tuberculosis while in 1919 there
were IS. For the first six months of
the year there have been % deaths
from tuberculosis. 1t can be expected
that there will be an increase in the
number of cases reported, for two rea-
sons. First, the physicians are now
better able to make a diagnosis of the
disease while it is still in the early
stage; second the war and the cpl
demic of influenza of 1888 and 20.
will result in the development of a
great many cases. Already many case
reports have been received in this Of
flee. where the primary cause of the
disease was an attack of influenza
Measles and whooping cough also will
result in a great many children devel-
oping the disease. Consequently, with
the increase in the number of cases
reported, there will be an increase in
the number Of deaths.

Doctor Browns report for the first
six months of 1920, made public to-
day, shows a total of fffty-nire cases
of tuberculosis were reported to the
health department Of this number
forty-five Were whites, twenty eight
males and seventeen females; ten were
negroes, four males and six females,
and four were Mexicans. two of each
sex. Figured on the basis of the per-
centage of Topeka's population, as an
nounced recently. the report shows one
out of a thousand whites infected; one
out of 500 negroes and one out of so
Mexicans. The most common period
for infection. as shown by the report,
is between the ages of 20 and 80 years
Twenty-three deaths from all forms
of tuberculosis occurred in Topeka
during the six months. OF this num-
