TUBERCULOSIS SUNDAY
SET FOR DECEMBER

Oklahoma City, Nov S.-Decem
ber has been designated as Tub
erculosis Sunday in Oklahoma In
conformity with the plan to hold
National tuberculosis Sunday on
that day, according to Jules Schev.
itz, general secretary of the Oklaho.
ma public health association here
yesterday.
The Sunday will come on the 4th
day of the 1921 tuberculosis Christ.
mas Seal sale, and will open Health
Week, plans for which are now be-
ing drawn up. Ministers have been
asked to read special health prayers
ard to discuss tuberculosis in their
sermons on that day, Schevitz said.
Special music and Sunday school
services are also planned.
Public health has always been
closely aligned with the church."
the health officer explained. "In
the alleviation of human suffering,
the betterment of the human race,
attention for the need and succor
for the destitute, the functions of
the battle for better health coincide
With those of the clergy.
IF the tuberculosis death rate
had remained what it was fifteen
years ago during this year we would
have buried 10000 more human be-
ings than we actually did. National
experts agree these and similar fig.
r~es prove conclusively the efforts
in the war against tuberculosis have
had tangible results which can be
l'ut down in black and white and
that there is every reason to ex-
pect further decrease in the death
rate from tuberculosis in the United
States if the fight is continued.

FAMOUS ANECDOTES
OF FAMOUS PEOPLE
William Mckinley

During the war with Spain,
when Mckinley was President, he
was continually beset with
cranks who had new inventions
for overcoming the enemy.
One day a man came to him
wanting to sell a lot of mirrors.
This is a sure thing" said
the man, ut is the best thing
ever offered the army"
But what in the world 40
you expect an army to do with
a lot of mirorrs?" asked McKin-
ley, perplexed.
ut is very simple. SIR" ex-
planned the man. Every soldier
will be given mirror. The
general will be ordered not to
fight except when the sun is
shining brightly. Then when the
enemy advances, the soldiers can
throw the reflection Of the sun
in their eyes and blind them.
The rest will be easy"
Needless to say the President
declined this offer. The mirror
man west away highly indignant,
declaring that this country wouIa
be defeated because Of its lack
Of progress.
