Our visitor again passed his hand
over his forehead, as if he found 1t
bitterly hard. From every gesture anG
expression l could see that he was a
reserved self-contained man, with a
dash of pride in his nature, more like
" to hide his wounds than to expose
them. Then suddenly, with a fierce
gesture of his closed hand, like one
who throws reserve to the winds, he
began.
THE facts are these, Mr.. Holmes, -
said he. Il am a married man and
have been so for three years. During
that time my wife and l have loved
each other as fondly and lived as hap

PROPOSED TUBERCUL 0SIS HOSPITAL FAVORED;
LITTLE OPPOSITION e EXPRESSED AT HEARING

All persons who spoke at the hear
ing on the proposed erection Of a tu-
berculosis hospital for Wayne county
Monday afternoon were in favor of
some kind of hospital. either now or
in the future The hearing was before
the county commissioners, in the court
house.
Arguments were based on whether
a hospital should be erected now or
in the future, and what the cost should
be. Nearly all of the rs citizens pres
ent expressed themselves.
From the speeches made, it was evil
dent that the principal cause for hest
fancy in endorsing the proposed pro-
ject was from the individuals reluc-
lance to be burdened with increased
taxes Most of these objections came
from the rural districts, where, il was
said. any increase in taxes probably
would be most keenly felt
Hearty approval of going forward
with the building of such an institu-
ton came from individual citizens of
Richmond, as well as from individuals
who represented groups of people.
Valuable assistance in solving the
problem was lent by several physi-
clans present. who submitted state
ments of their experiences with the
white plague in this county. or figures

hospital buildings urged the immediate
need of the institution.
Seaney Makes Plea.
An effort is being made to reduce
the reception hospital plans from 81
beds to between 40 and As. This will
cut off about $4,000 from the first
figures estimated, which were $146, 900.
That would leave but $4,000 for the
county to pay, with $4,000 of that
already offered by the Estebs
There is no question about the
need of hospital. If we were to build
this hospital believe we could fill 90

given this county the $4,000 farm, and
$4,000 in addition. it would seem to
me that this county should be big

Speaking for the tuberculosis board
of trustees, Dr. 0. N. Huff, of Fountain

ity is a great one. The person with
tuberculosis is a most pitiful creature
not allowed in schools, street cars or
churches. It's a question of humanity.
