57,7S2. The death rate from tuber-
culosis Is 1920 higher in the South
than in the Nation as whole. One
reason for the exceedingly high death
rate in the South is the great preva,
lence of the plague among the negroes
who are especially susceptible to tuber-
culosis, the death rate among them
being three and one-half times that
among the whites. But inasmuch as
the negroes will doubtless continue to
be intimately associated with the
whites in domestic and other work in
the future, the whites will never be
safe from infection until the negroes,
as we'll as the whites, have been freed
from the plague.
1t has been estimated that the to-
tai economic loss from the ravages

warfare against the plague the Bap-
lists hope to greatly reduce this loss,

tracted tuberculosis, the sanatoFium in
carrying on an educational work that
seeks to inform the public at large
through the printed page, as to the
danger of tuberculosis, how it can be
avoided and how, once it is con-
tracted, its progress can be arrested
through proper sanitary measures at
home. Other phases of the educa-
tional program include the training
of workers inside the sanatorium and
occupational and vocational work for
patients. The extension department
is widely disseminating literature on
how to combat tuberculosis. An en-
dowment fund that is being created
for the institution will make possible
much larger circulation of literature
and will also enable the institution to
take care Of INDECENT patients.
The sanatorium Is at present seek.
ing to devise special plans whereby
it can serve the negroes of the South
in combating tuberculosis. It is felt I
that the negroes inability to help
themselves in the matter entities them
to this consideration and that this
assistance should be given, further
more, as means of self-protection on
the part of the whites.
other Phases of Baptist Work.
In addition to the Tuberculosis
sanatorium, Southern Baptists have a
string of seventeen regular hospitals
in operation and seven others under
course Of construction. This hospital
propert.r is valued at approximately
S7OOO,0OO and these institutions last
year treated $4,000 patients many OF
them being charity cases. Southern Bap.
lists also operate 19 orphanages In
which approximately 5000 orphan boys
and girls are cared for, educated and
trained for Christian citizenship. =

church, which church is Gods world.
Every church has its foundations, its
domed ceiling. its lights, its portraits,
its statues, its epigrams, its legal
books, its anthems, it's altars and its
ministers. But what church has foun-
dations as that of the ocean, with
domed ceiling as the heavens, lights
as the sun, moon and the stars, por-
traits to compare with people loving
and helping each other? What epi-
grams can be so easily understood
as those engraved upon nature, on
which God has lavished his blessings
for mems happiness? What book of
law can man more easily understand
than that one engraved upon his
heart? What sacrifices can be COM
pared to those sacrifices to which
men and women who really love are
proceeding mutually? And what al
tar can be compared to that of vir-
tuous mans heart upon which God ac-
cepts the sacrifice?
"No matter how little a man COM
prehends the idea of God, it is much
better for him to know Him. The bet
ter acquainted he is with God, the
more he will be attracted to Him, the
more he will initiate His kindness,
and love toward men.
Hence, he who sees the light shin
ing upon the world, let him abstain
from accusing, or disdaining the su-
perstitious man, who, in his partic-
ular idol sees only one ray of His
light. Let him not disdain the unbe-
lever, who is blind, and entirely un-
able to see the sum-" Thus spoke the
Chinaman, student of Confucius, and
all who were present in the Saloon of
Surat kept silent and never debated
again whose faith was the best.

Miss Elsie Toles Argues In Favor Of Bill Pending
 In Legislature

DOUGLAS. Feb. 3.-~The state school administration must be re-Or- SaniZed and centralized" said Miss Elsie ToleS. state superintendent oi public instruction in an address de hvered at the chamber of commerce luncheon club luncheon at the GadSden hotel today.
 Miss TOles was introduced by Col. II. H. Stout, chairman of the Lunch con club. and Without preliminary banterins. delivered a convincing dis cuOrSe concerning the welfare of the state schools.
 In explaining her desire to see the schools and educational system centralized. Miss ToleS declared that the state superintendent position should be appointive and the county superintendentS should not be cleo tive as present but should be made appointive by a centralized school board She asserted that the county position does not entail sufficient sal ary 10 attract capable applicants and that it was merely a position which when election time came. was aspired to only by politicians seeking posi- tionS, and not attracting experienced and qualified instructors seeking the betterment of the state and county educational system. and equipped with the qualifications of a public instruc- tor.
 Miss Toles said that she had spent four years in the public school ser vice of this county and was compe- tent to understand the situation. She cited the fact that a bill was pend ing in the state legislature for an additional appropriation to the states educational system and its centrali- Zation and reorganization. The bill includes the positions of state and county superintendents as appointive. The bill would reOrganize the state board of education which is compos- ed Of the governor. d president, state and county superintendent and board of trustees. She said that the board of trustees should be made elective and the representatives nom mated either from districts or the county at large.
 Miss Toles laid particular stress upon the fact that numerous teach CTS who had been grenCed state cer- tificates were incompetent in the present positions they are holding in the states educational system. She said that all teachers should not be permitted to teach unless they had graduated from high school. At the of her address, which was direct and to the point, Miss Toles was given round Of applause.
 Col. Staut said that as an oppo- 1ent to Miss Toles. Robert Rae, for merly general auditor for the Phelps Dodge corporation, would speak at the meeting two weeks from today. Mr. Rae, he said, had had a number of years experience in his line of york and would be prepared to pre- sent tabulated statements partially Miss Toles' statements.
