which the state assembly sits; and it

the viewpoint of a European on the
attitude which has been taken by the
American public is vastly interesting
The sting of his criticism on Amer

extent, by the following paragraph
which is taken from the forewords to
his book:
Europe ever turns again to the
West, and dreams dreams. Then she
goes to find out whether those dreams
are true. In that spirit and with such
a quest, we still go: and the Ameri-
cans must pardon US for our errand
They must also ever remember that
if European records of these quests
sometimes seem a little severe in
judgment, it is because our dreams
have been so golden, and our hopes
so high"

All was quiet with the tenseness of
expectancy in the children's ward at
the Topeka tuberculosis sanatorium.
Bright eyes and flushed cheeks, caused
by both excitement and illness, en-
phasized the eagerness of the little
faces on the pillows. The one and
only, great and wonderful Santa Claus
was about to appear! Each child
Seemed too full of the realization of
the momentous occasion to make any
comment, until suddenly a quivering-
ly excited voice from an emaciated
dark eyed small boy piped up:
100, goodb goody! I'm so glad I'm
here cause Santa Claus comes here
and he never comes at homei"
The boy and a still smaller brother
are in the sanatorium for the second
time. A few months ago they were
brought there in an unalarming stage
of the disease and were treated with
such success that they were sent home
with all symptoms gone, or with the
disease in an arrested state. Lack of
care at home resulted in the white
plague creeping back upon the little
boys. tuberculosis nurses who had
been watching them decided a few
days ago that they must come back to
the sanatorium. And the children
were overjoyed. That the sanatorium,
which is only a means TO happiness
to most of the patients, can contribute
such joy to the children is fact that
brings deep satisfaction to those who
have given service at the sanatOrium.
Told What They Wanted.
Santa Claus did come, bringing and
leaving behind him pleasure and con-
tent for days among the sick children.
They told him what they would like
to have for Christmas, just as the well
children downtown have been doing
And from the energetic and generous
preparation for Christmas that is go
ing on at the sanatorium and among
the sanatorium boosters, it is quite
likely that Santa Claus is to be ad-
vised to bring for the children every
thing they asked. as nearly as the
Santa Claus shop is able to furnish
them.

A little girl who dreaded leaving
her parents to go to the sanator1um
is now just as happy as any of the
children who are we'll and at home.
She cried and fought over the prospect
of being left there. But a few days
ago her parents wanted to take her
home for a few days, thinking that she
would be happier if she could be at
home occasionally. Bpt no indeed!
Little Miss Sick Girl wished to re-
main at the sanatorium.
I'VE have so much fun here and l
don't want to go home now she said
Stop Disease Easily in Children.
The work in the chiIdren's ward is
probably the most vitality important of
the whole fight against tuberculosis
being made in the city. For the dis
ease is easily arrested in children If
taken in time and the sanatorium in
that way is saving for society some
citizens who may prove valuable and
presenting them to their parents with
absolute cures pronounced.
Before the generous Topeka public
contributed to build the porches
around the sanatorium, the children 5
ward was in long, sunny room, but
it's cheeriness and wholesomeness does
not compare with the spacious sun
porch the children now occupy. The
children's part of the new porches is
shown in the accompanying pilot =

Helping in the fight against tuber-
culosis is something that may right
fully be expected of every citizen, but
the response to the Christmas call fpf
help is not encouraging to those in
charge of the campaign.

Unless Topekans purchase a great
many stamps Within the next two
weeks, there will be less money to
fight tuberculosis in Shawnee county
in the next year than there has been
this year. and this years amount was
not considered adequate.
The Christmas seals have been
mailed to many persons, but only a
small per cent have sent the money
for the seals. Everyone who is neg
lecting to buy Christmas seals is hin
dering the progress of the anti-tuber-

Disabled veterans of the World war

Adjutant Frank E. Samuel has re-
quested all Kansas posts of the Ameri-

his buddies to reI. ember him if the
positions were reversed" writes Han
ford MacNider, national commando.

He believes that wages must be re-
duced and that prices of manufac-
tured articles must be reduced to
bring about a normal basis of ex-
change between the farmer and the
manufacturer. He said that Europe
will not be in a position to buy heavily
for three years and that our improve
ment will be in spite of rather than
because of our foreign trade.
"A large part of the trouble among
laboring classes is the very apparent

many quarters" he said. THE West
will continue to have slow conditions
until spring, as the depression really
did not reach US until about ninety
