TUBERCULOSIS HOSPITAL FOR
KANSAS Ex-SERvICE MEN

Brigadier General Charles e. Saw
yer, the Presidents physician, in q
letter to Doctor Charles n. Lerrigo,
Executive Secretary of the Kansas
State tuberculosis Association, con-
firms the report that the Federal
Government has authorized 200 bed
hospital for tuberculosis ex-service
men at Leavenworth, and states that
plans for the building are now being
prepared.
The Kansas State tuberculosis As
ISOLATION has been working to get this
hopital for Kansas ever since the ap-
preparation of SIS, 600 100000 for ex-
ira hospitals was authorized Doctor
Lerrigo states that 200 bed hospital
is none too large for tuberculosis ex-
service men of Kansas. There are at
least 600 Kansas men needing treat
ment.
Since the War Risk Insurance act
was passed, a total of $3.50 ex-ser-
vice men suffering with Tuberculosis
have applied for disqualification, so it
is conservative to place the Kansas
proportion at 600.

Too many people want to acquire
health without making any sacrifice
to obtain it.
Getting well depends upon the
earnest, conscientious effort on the

their daily routine, their luxuries,

TIP FROM BRIDGE BUILDERS

once again the Bridge Commission has
~ demonstrated its capacity for promoting
a great public enterprise. The Official in
auguration Of work upon the Delaware
River structure is to he eiaboratcly signal
lied. Civic bodies in Camden and thi, city
have been asked to attend a meeting 10
devise appropriate ceremonies for the event
scheduled for January ..
There will be speeches. Of course. and
probably the usual standardized rhetoric.
But it has also been suggested that parade.
with floats and other pageantry stimulate
ing to the imagination, should be hell.
Purposes other than that OF moro num-
mery might proGtably be served in this pic
torial fashion. The public is not partiru-
larly interested in accounts of preliminary
plans and reports Of the award of con-
tracts Suitable pageantrv could make tho
bridge undertaking vivid in It's appeal.
~S-The proposed exhibition Of a model Of the
structure is in line with this praisewnrthy
understanding Of popular psychology. Visual
aids to the imaginative faculties are often
of the highest practical potency

THE FARM WOMAN

TN THESE days when it is the accepted
i custom TO admit women 70 membership in
sll organizations in which their welfare ie
considered. the action Of the Cumberland
County, New Jersey, Board Of Agriculture
comes as a surprise. One member Of the
board was strongly in favor Of having at
least one woman member, but he was so
outyoted that the chairman did not feel it
necessary TO count the votes.
For many years the part that women have
played in the agricultural work Of the Coun.
ntry has been equal almost TO that of the
men. The lot of the farm woman in former
days was hard one, and while the automo-
fbile and other modern inventions have done
much to ameliorate it, it is still one of the
lines in which the work part heavily over
balances the play.
The success Of farm to far greater
sextent than that of other businesses, de-
pends largely upon the efficiency with which
tine domestic end is administered, and this
sfails entirely upon the women. a thorough
sknowIedge of all branches Of the work. and
some right Of directing, such as was pro-

METHoDIsTS AND MISSIONS

TT is customary to judge Of the vitality
L of a church by the extent of its interest
in missions. If the Church is interested in
extending knowledge Of the Gospel in re-
cions wh"ro it is not generally preached it
is commonly said that it has a real faith
in its religion.
The presence in the city Of twCnty-fy
Bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
attending the annual meeting of the Board
of Home Missions, calls attention to the
interest Of the Methodsts in the spread of
the Gospel
The Methodist Church. which grew out
Of dissatisfaction with the lack Of what is
called the evangelical spirit Of the Church
Of England in tho eighteenth century, has
always been imbued with tn" missionary
spirit. It has made il its business as fast
as it had the ability to plant now Methodist
churches in regions where there was an
opening for them. As fast as the popula-
ton of tho country spread westward the
Methodist home missionaries were sent into
tho new country. They were supported by
contributions from the churches in the older
settled regions until they became ,"lt-sup-

Australian Golfers Trick Strokes

From the Manchester Guardian.
The young Australian golfer, J. II. Kirk
wood, is something of a wizard with the
ball and clubs besides being first class
golfer in the ordinary way His tricks in
clude driving ball off the face of a watch
without touching the glass. He can raise
the ball from the ground with his niblick
and catch 1t In its fall without changing his
stance, He has driven ball from under
a mans boot toe. He has at times placed
ball near the lip of the hole and ten
others Mt intervals behind it; then beginning
with the tenth ball he lofts them one after
the other over the stymie and into the hole.
He began his golfng career as a caddie and
at the age of sixteen was appointed profes-
sional at Brisbane.
