tuberculeus men. This is maintained by public subscription. The patients going to Denver should have suffi- cient funds for at least two. years good care A few weeks or months in lodging house or even a sanatorium seldom brings lasting benefit.
 Plenty of good food. fresh air and medical attention are absolutely neces- sary and must be continued over 8 sufficient length of time to effect an arrest or a cure. A patient lacking funds must do without these essential things. The resultant anxiety, home sickness, hopelessness and the desper7 ate necessity of working before he is able - these things lead to a break down far more serious than the origi- nal condition which brought the pa tient there. The patient who is un- able to pay for food, rest and proper care, but who can obtain them at home. has a better chance of recovery anywhere than in Denver.
 In giving wide publicity through your columns to this warning, you will, I am confident, save many a heartache and bitter disappointment.
 Sincerely, F. HUMPHREY,
 Executive Secretary.

TubercuIous People Swamp Den Ter

Iuberculous People Swamp Denver To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 We are in receipt of a very urgent request from the secretary of the Anti -Tuberculosis society of Denver, Colo, asking that we give the widest publicity possible to the warning given by that society to the many hundreds of indigent tuberculous per- sons Hooking to Denver every year.
 The mistaken idea that climate alone will cure tuberculosis brings to Denver a large number of these people without sufficient means for adequate treat ment. Many of them come, hoping to work Work of any kind for per son with active tuberculosis, the so- ciety says, is practically impossible to find in Denver.
 There is no state or municipal sana- torium in Denver. Several private in sstitutions care for patients at from S45 to s175 per month. The care of persons without funds is limited. They are constantly taxed to the utmost, and obliged to turn away many ap- plicants just as our Jefferson county society has almost daily to refuse many worthy but suffering victims who apply for admission to our own little sanatorium.
 In Denver there are two free Jewish sanatoria with total capacity of $50 beds. These accept a limited number of Gentiles, but patients must apply from their, place of departure and await notice before going to Denver. It is usually several months before an applicant can be admitted.
 The county hospital in Denver has only one ward for the tubercuIouS, and this has capacity of but 36. This institution will receive only those per- sons having at least one years legal residence in Denver.
 Besides these two institutions thera IS small tent colony for indigent

ability the general showed. In his leav- ing he deserves the gratitude and com mendation of every decent citizen in this district and the entire state.'
 General Steiner's conduct of the sjtua- tion has been all that could be desired" ," said E. H. Cabaniss. "He is entitled to the thanks of the citizens of this community and the state at large. His service was gladly given at what must have been very great personal financial sacrifice, "He had a lot to uphold and he up- held it." was the comment of Dan B. Dimick. "He handled the situation won derfully well. It was all business with General Steiner He was as fair as any man could be. He had duty to perform and he performed it."
 Let me express my whole-hearted sympathy with everything General Steiner has done,'' said E. Hl Andrews. T think he has conducted the situation admirably, and that he deserves the thanks of the entire state for his work" General Steiner's conduct of the strike has been above criticisnl in my opinion" B. H. IIartsfield declared "I think that he has handled the strike situation in most commendable manner. Every citizen of the district in particular, and the state at large, owes his thanks to the general. No fair-mnded citizen can find any, thing to criticise In General Steiners s
  ing to H. Key Miner.
 'T think General Steiner has handled the situation in most masterful manner, said MT. Milner. "He has been firm, just and fair. He has been on the job all the time. His coming here has no doubt en- tailed very great personal financial sacri- fee. I think that the thanks of the whole state are due him.
 Gen. R. F. Steiner has demonstrated that he is 100 per cent Alabama patriot. and that he is 100 per cent fafrest of fair minded persons in his work to preserve law and order in the coal mining district during the strike just ended,'' said J. D. Kirkpatrick. No one can criticise the splendid ability shown in his conduct of the situation.
 ''Unquestionably the best man available for the place was selected to handle the strike situation. The unreserved thanks and commendation of the citizens of the mining district. the city of Birmingham and the state in general are due our bril- liant military leader"

 on Increase at Present

 Many sales are pending. ranging from ss,0o0 to s700O but the details are not available as yet.

Best of all in compact thought, how ever, was the tribute of Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, who has had more mili- tary experience in handling strikes than perhaps any other army man now living When General Wood was here a week ago, he made the following comment on the work of General Steiner:
 T am very much interested and pleased with the way in which this strike has been handled by General Steiner. He has taken care of the situation in most able manner, and l have watched developments with great interest. Nothing further in the way of excellent management of conditions could be desired by any army man.
 The regard in which the general is held by his men is expressed through out the guard organization. A regular undercurrent was found during the meeting at Woodrow Wilson park Thursday night. This. regard was ex- pressed ably by Major Baldwin, as spokesman for the members fof the guard from Birmingham:
 ssWe are for you first, last and
 all the time, and would be only
 too proud to again serve under
 you. Let assure you that such
 broadness of vision and your att
 titude toward the boys is npprc-
 ciated beyond any mere collections
 of words which we could compile"
 General Steiner's courage and firm ness in dealing with the situation, at great personal sacrifice to himself has piled up a great debt which the citizens of the Birmingham district and the rest of the state will never be able to repay, according to prominent men of Birmingham. These men had no ax to grind in the recent strike. being neither coal operators or union organizers, but fair minded, public- spirited citizens of Birmingham
 ''The state and the district were partic- ularly fortunate in having man of the courage and firmness of General Steiner in charge of the situation" declared Eu- gene L. Brown. II do not think there was another man in the state who could have shown the judgment, patience and

Seldom has such a large crowd of youngsters gotten together with no cry ing at all; and although the programme lasted for more than an hour and 30 min. utes, not a single baby cried or fretted in the least.
 Ages of the juvenile guests varied from three months to five years and each ap- parently had the time of his or her young life. Was it any wonder, when the de- voted and proud fathers gave them any thing they could see and wanted to play with?
 A large number of mothers appeared at the door and were allowed to peep in at father" and laugh at the awkward man ner in which some of them were holding the smallest babies. However, they were not allowed to cross the threshold as the meeting was strictly for the mem beIs and their offspring.
 That there are a number of bachelors and married men with no children was evidenced by the number of gifts brought for the children. Appropriate decorations were used, in the ballroom suggestive of a nursery and the programme was full of fun and amusement.
 GROWLER KID NO. 1
 The welcome to the babies was given by Tom Estes, who told several nursery rhymes which were interrupted at inter vals by the children. Charles Estes Jr, "Growler Kid No. l." resbonded on be- half of the youngsters. He stated that he was not even consulted about being "Growler Kid No. IT. and that he had been it for long time before he knew anything about it. He thanked the club for inviting them, declaring they were proud of the honor of being guests of their fathers.
 Sorsby Jemison gave some instructions on how to bathe a baby Ryan Oden spoke on the clothing of a baby; Joe Mudd gave some rules on feeding them; Claude Estes spoke race suicide; Will liam Saddler, Jr., told a short story on one of the club members which brought forth much applause Nelson Snow spoke briefly on the history of the baby spoons, it being the custom of the club to give a baby spoon to the first baby of a member if it is girl and if boy kid spoon. A short talk was made by Wads- worth Wood regarding the airing of children which was received with en- thusiasm.
