More than 10000 Japanese residents
Of Tokyo called at the shrine of Ehi-

Osaka, before noon on the japanese
New Years day. They knocked on
the walls OF the shrine with wooden
mallets and called upon the god to
bring them riches during the coming

receive more homage January 10 than
any other day Of the year, that being
the first special gods day Of the cal.

57,782. The death rate from tuber.
culosis Is l4.2% higher in the South
than in the Nation as a 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 nogroes

carrying on an educational work that
seeks to inform the public at large

OF workers inside the sanatorium and
occupational and vocational work for
