SUNDAY OCT. :
MICHIGAN PASTORS ARE URGED
TO DEVOTE SERMONS TO
GREAT WHITE PLAGUE.

Lansing, Sept. 29-October ninth
will be celebrated as Tuberculosis
Sunday" throughout Michigan, and
ministers all over the state are re-
questcd by the Michigan tuberculosis
association to give attention on that
day To the subject of the disease that
not only kills about three thousand
Michigan citizens each year but with
which more than $4,000 citizens are
now suffering. There is not a church
i'm Michigan that that does not count
victims of the disease among its men,
bers, and pastors are asked TO help
in the campaign Of education that is
being conducted TO prevent the di-
sease.
\ more vigorous campaign than
has ever before been waged will be
put on by the Michigan tuberculosis
association, by reason Of the fact that
the lowest death rate in the hisory Of
this state, 1919 per 100000 population,
has Just been announced. 1t is be-
lievcd that this decline in the death
rate is in part at least due to the in
formation about the disease that has
been spread, and hence efforts will be
increased to cause still greater de-
cline, if possible.
alton has prepared an outline Of a
The Michigan tuberculosis associ-
sermon on tuberculosis. Ministers
throughout the state who wish to help
in the campaign against the disease
by preaching a sermon on it "Tuber-
culosis Sunday" October 9, can secure
this outline from the association at
3l5 Oakland Bldg, Lansing.
The Tuberculosis Sunday" will in
augurate a week Of intensive work Of
tuberculosis publicity throughout the
state The message will be carried
to all sections Of Michigan and an at
tempt will be made to arouse renewed
interest in this disease now that the
death rate is being materially cut
down by the methods that have been
followed.

BROUGHT BACK TOWN CRlER
Ancient Official Had Brief Day OF
Glory When Only Daily News
paper Was Burned Cat.

The connection between the town
trier and the newspaper was demon
strated recently when the plant of the
Macon (MO) Daily ChronicleIIerald,
the only daily newspaper in the coun-
~, was so badly damaged by fire 1t
was put out Of commission for several
weeks, according to the Fourth Es-
tate.
Some important announcements
were waiting-a big stock sale, pub
lie meeting, features at the movie
shows and special sales by the
merchants. There were weekly pa
pers, but these would not be out in
time.
Then someone thought Of Dick Me-
Kinney, the old town crier. who had
been off the job for n decade, and
whose retirement had been the cause
OF much storicd sentiment as indlca-
tive Of the passage OF the old TO the
modern method which came with the
daily newspaper.
Dick said he was old and rheu-
maticky, and that his voice was not
what II used to be- but they dug him
UP bell, gave him megaphone and
told him TO 60 out and tell the people
what was coming.
The old town crier did the best he
could, hut II was evident that years
had weakened his vocal organs, so
that the bell was the most valuable
feature Of his service.
While the daily paper was out OF
commission the town slipped back
decade or more. No market reports,
nothing about the weather, nothing
from the conventions, no announce
ments of choir practice and socials.
The town crier was all In when the
paper resumed publication and took
his place But, while his resurrection
was brief, the town crier came Into
such fame ms he had never known In
his previous humble history.

At a public hearing at Harrison,

himself as being in favor Of q closed

Club, numbering one hundred mem
bers, is back of the movement for a
closed season, and the petition ask
ing for a hearing was signed by prac-
tically every member Of the Board
Of Supervisors. 1t is generally felt
among sportsmen in the north end
Of the county that some protection is
necessary or all the deer will be driv-

TELL 1T TO TIE EDITOR

Every newspaper editor is DESTROYS
Of printing all the legitimate news of
his subscription field That is the
object of his paper. But fortunately
an editor is partly human-at least
he is modelled in human form. He
doesn't possess a dozen pair Of hands
or legs, or eyes, or ears, for the col
lection Of vast funds Of information.
That is why the editor urges you TO
tell him what you know-to keep him
Informed Of the doings Of yourself
and family, of your friends, Of your
community in general. 1t is the only
way to make a good paper and is one
of the prime requisites to good
community in which to live and do
business. Tell it to the editor. He'll
tell others-if it is tellablc.

We notice that in some quarters
they are discussing the possibilities
for governor in the next campaign
And that several names have been
mentioned. Among them are those of
Frank Lever and Eugene S. Blease.
The editor of this paper has promised
himself to vote for Lever if he runs,
though one of the statements is to
the effect that Lever will not be in
the race. If that is true this editor
will vote for Eugene Blease, if he
should run, and we will add that Eu-
gene Blease has the ability to serve
the state well. He is progressive and
at the same time conservative and
has nothing of the radical about him,
and the craft of state would be in
safe and sane hands should he be
elected.

Prominent women of this commun-
ity have been asked to join in ma
tionwide movement to unity he wo-
man power of the country along civic,
welfare, and patriotic lines through
the Woman's National Foundation
whose headquarters are in Washing
ton, D. C. A request has been re-
ceived here from Mrs. Clarence Crit.
tenden Calhoun, president of the
Foundation, to organize a local cen
ter here and Mrs. L. w. Floyd has
been appointed chairman for the
county.
Great enthusiasm for the movement
is reported from all sections of the
country. Although the Foundation is
less than six months old, it has secur-
ed thousands of members, acquired a
million-dollar national site in Wash
ington, and is indorsed and backed
by leading fnanciers, statesmen, ed
ucotars, and officials.
The board of governors of the
Foundation includes number of ma
tionally known women.

can women; new burdens they must
bear with wisdom and with strength.
At the very time when they are most
needed, with their great gifts OF SYM
pathv and intuition and their passion
for caring for others, women enter
American life in its fullest sense as
citizens; when their influence may be
the vital force that will stem the tides
of unrest and turn the public mind
and public conscience back to the rea-
lization of what their true allegiance
to their country properly demands.
''This is the basic thought back of
this Foundation. The thought that
women must give of their best in the
new state of national life into which
it has pleased God to call them; and,
further, to create a point of central
ization for all thinking women who
have love in their hearts for the
higher things. Women who would
rather die than have the sanctuary OF
the home besmirched and who are
willing as volunteer soldiers to DO
their utmost for the preservation OF
the highest in our civilization"
Such are the ideals of the Woman's
National Foundation. Turning to its
practical side, it intends to promote
the education of women in civic
knowledge and rights; the teaching of
Americanism by restoring the old
simple standards; the holding of ref
erendums on questions of national i'm
portance through its local centers in
every part of the country and thus
registering the will of the women OF
America; the fostering of music, dra-
ma. and the other arts and the fur
thering of all efforts making for the
welfare of women and children and
to afford the women of America a ma
tional club home in the capital OF the
country-an acropolis of woman's
achievement-where the problems OF
women shall receive the thought and
the study that shall lead to their solu-
ton. A bureau of information will
he maintained at the Washington
headquarters where questions con-
corning the nations business, work IN
the departments, and legislation will
be accurately and quickly answered.
In word, it will be a clearing house
of won.an's activities not interfering
with the aims of other organizations,
but unifying and solidifying the pro-
gress of American women, only pos
sible in an organization in the capt.
tai of the country, free from section
alism and partisanship. A. Capital
for Women" it has been aptly named,
promoting practically every activity
in which women, not only as club wo-
men, but as individuals, are interest
ed. Where no local centers of the
Foundation are formed any woman
NAV become a member at large and
be entitled to the rights, privileges,
and opportunities of the organization

under ruling of the board of health
there can not be sold in the town of

doing pretty well on it for 10 these
many moons, and we are willing to
risk it a little while longer, if we are
