work hardship on taxpayer. The cost, 1t has
been computed, will amount to only Is cents on
81 600 taxable property. This sum is so small
in comparison with the inestimable good OF 4
tuberculosis hospital that it is folly to base oppo-
sition to the plan on the question OF taxation.
If 40 to so persons die of tuberculosis in
Wayne county annually, their deaths prove the
necessity of an institution to combat the ravages
of the disease If the deaths of only one or two
persons can be prevented during the first year
of the hospitals existence, it will have justified
the expense.
Let every family head localize this issue to
himself If a member of his family became i'll of
tuberculosis today, he could not find an institu-
ton in Indiana which could accept him for treat
ment All of them are filled with patients. He
would have no place to which he could turn for
treatment, excepting to send him to western
state, and reports from there state all available
hospital facilities are exhausted.
The need of the hospital is urgent, no matter
from what angle you view the situation.
A splendid offer to provide the hospital has
been made and surely it is incumbent upon the
county authorities to accept it without further
delay. The health and lives of 40 to SO persons
are involved in their decision. The hospital, one
may say without exaggeration means the first
real decisive blow struck for the eradication Of
the disease in Wayne county.

of the methods generally employed in
the treatment of rheumatism, and al

out here by Superintendent of Pub
lie instruction George Colvin. He
compared the investment TO that Of
Illinois. Ohio. and Indiana. the states
directly north Of Kentucky, which Re
said had an average of $40 per pupil
invested in school property.
The average for the United States
is s55 per pupil, Mr.. Colvin said.
Expenditures per pupil for educa-
ton in public schools of the State
totals 1915, according to the state
ment. while the average for the three
states across the Ohio river 10 the
north is s27.76 and for the United

Kentucky pays $3.50 per pupil in
attendance for teaching as compared
with s24 81 by Illinois, Indiana and
Ohio. and s22.76 average for the
United States.
Kentucky's per capita wealth. he
added, is s977. the per capita wealth
Of Indiana, Illinois and Ohio is
