Doctor Blank put the chart on the
wall and commanded a small and
shrinking six-year-old to read what he
saw on 1t.
The child began painstakingly with
a strange assortment Of grunts and

The poor child was red in the face,
and the doctor about to hand him over
to the office nurse to be taken down

67,7S2. The death rate from tuber-
culosis is 14.2% 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 negroes,
as well as the whites, have been freed
from the plague.
1t has been estimated that the to-
tai economic loss from the ravages
of tuberculosis in the South is &175,.
100000 year, and In projecting their
warfare against the plague the Rap-
lists hope to greatly reduce this loss,
as we'll as to save the life and promote
the health and general efficiency OF
the whole people.

Little Man Knew His Helpmeet's
Whistle and, SO to Speak, Gov
erned Himself Accordingly.

The time was Saturday, $50 p. m,
the place, local movie house, the
girl, large, robust middle-aged
woman.
Rushing up to one Of the ushers In
the foyer she excitedly cried: "Say,
boy, left my husband In here while
I went shopping. Our car leaves in
FIVE minutes and he amt out here.
Don't want to buy q ticket; how can
I get himf"
1--WE aren't allowed to page any
one" replied the usher, "but II you
describe him perhaps I can find him."
The woman apparently did not hear
a word he said.
"Do you care II I whistle for himT
she asked.
Thinking she was only Joking he
said: "Go to It,"
Immediately shrill and weird
whistle startled the quiet audience.
A, meek little man sitting well to-
ward the front Jumped as though shot,
bolted up the aisle, appeared In the
foyer and meekly ran In the wake OF
the robust woman who was rapidly
making tracks for the interurban sta.

THE GIRL ON THE JOB /:
How to Succeed-How to Get
Ahead-How to Make Good :
By JESSIE ROBERTS :
IN YOUR JOB.

TTONESTY is a subtle thing. Often
man or woman who would
rather die than steal q cent man
ages to be more or less dishonest every
day.
Too many girls who are employed
in business ;,faa 20 retlize that IN
stealing time they steal the equivalent
Of dollars. If you waste time, idling
In whatever way, 'Seh .afesnot being
honest In your work.
II you slur details, confuse items,
forget instructions, If you use only
half your brains and half your energy,
you are being dishonest. When yeu
accepted the position you implied that
you were fit for it. 1t is on that basis
you are paid.
You may argue that 1t makes very
little difference whether or not you are
guilty of these dishonesties. But you
ought to realize that 1t means a lot to
you. The ancient adage that honesty
is the best policy applies especially to
these aspects Of honesty. In the end
you harm yourself by faults of this
sort.
If you hate your work you ought to
get out of it. Work is often more
thrilling than anything else that we do.
Love your job; work hard at 1t with
enthusiasm and a growing skill, and
you will be happy woman.
This is old stuff. So old that most
of US never think Of it. But it pays to
think of 1t. Use your work to aid you
In making your life worth while as
well as simply a means of earning a
certain sum weekly.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"BLACKMAll."

TF, TODAY, anyone were to
accuse the editor Of a news
paper Of accepting blackmail
when he exchanges 81 years sub
scription to his paper for
bushel Of potatoes or to state
that merchant is guilty of the
same practice when he trades
his goods for ferm produce they
would probably be sued for
libel. AS a matter Of fact, they
would be only using the word
IN it's primary sense.
In the early days Of English
history "blackmall" - derived
from the word "black" and the
French "maille," meaning rent
was applied to the rents received
from tenants in the form of
work or grain, IN COntradistinc-
ton to payments made in silver
or white money (maille blanche).
Later. when the feudal baronS
and freebooters Of many kinds
rOamed the highways almost at
will. they collected "blackmail"
In the form of forced levies of
goods and provisions from the
inhabitants of the countryside
or from travellers who fell into
their clutches and the word fell
into such disrepute that, under
the Elizabethan laws, 1t was
made a felony without benefit
Of clergy" -,
1t is doubtless from this law
and the practice which neces-
stated it that the modern mean-
ing of the word-nOw synony-
nous with huSh-mOnPy or
bribe paid for the maintenance
Of silenCe-originated.

NOTHING "SoFT" ABOUT THIS
Heavy Outfit and Intense Heat Make
Life Miserable for Sentrles at
Buckingham Palace.

A reporter of the London Daily
News writing sketches Of the heat
wave Is especially sorry for the SEN
tries outside Of Buckingham palace.
Their plight, he writes, would have
melted the heart of Mr.. Winston
Churchill could he have seen them.
In the full glare Of the sun, clad
in thick serge trousers heavy scarlet
tunics, with tight belts and bearskin
BUSHES, the guardsmen stood persEir-
ing and half stifled.
Their outlook was upon roadway
stained with oil and reeking Of petrol,
fiaring beds Of scarlet geraniums,
scorched brown grass and the shim-
mering heat rejecting copper work
surmounting the Victoria memorial.
The fountain was not playing and the
surroundings were as devoid Of cool
ness as an alfalfat plain! One almost
expected to see scurrying tarantulas
and lizards. 1t was tropical military
service In English kit.

tractet tuberculosis, the sanatorium Is
carrying on an educational work that
seeks to inform the public at large
through the printed page, as to the
danger OF tuberculosis. how It can be
avoided and how, once 1t Is con-
tracted, its progress can be arrested
through proper sanitary measures at
home. Other phases Of the educa-
tional program include the training
Of workers inside the sanatorium and
occupational and vocational work for
patients. The extension department
Is widely disseminating literature on
how to combat tuberculosis. An en-.
dowment fund that is being created
for the institution will make possible
q much larger circulation OF literature
and will also enable the institution to
take care Of INDECENT patients.
The sanatorium Is at present seek
ing to devise special plans whereby
It can serve the negroes OF the South
In combating tuberculosis. 1t is felt
that the negroes' inability to help
themselves In the matter entities them
to this consideration and that this
assistance should be given, further
more, as a means of self-protection on
the part Of the whites.
Other Phases Of Baptist Work.
In addition to the tuberculosis
sanatorium, Southern Baptists have a
string OF seventeen regular hospitals
In operation and seven others under
course Of construction. This hospital
property IL valued at approximately
100000 and these institutions last
year treated $4,000 patients many Of
them being charity cases. Southern Bap-
fists also operate 10 orphanages in
which approximately 5000 orphan boys
and girls are cared for, educated and
trained for Christian citizenship.

Excess of Programs and Entertain
mems

In like manner the Sunday School
does not teach as much as it once
did 1t is in many instances devoted
more to entertainment than to instruc-
ton. Both our Sunday Schools and
day schools suffer from false cpl
grams and performances BY conse-
quence generation is growing up
which can not spell and knows next
to nothing of the Bible But the chill
dren and youth, who are thus de-
prived OF instruction IN order TO give
them entertainment, know how 10

nearly worthless and their marching
carries them nowhere

law is the expression Of the win 81
God, and if man entertain false no.
tons about God, he will inevitably
hold false notf0ns about what il. right
The Mohammedian idea Of God
makes the crude and corrupt ethics Of
Isaeamamism The Buddhist doctrine
of God makes the moral system OF
Buddhism.
Christian morality measures charac-
ter and conduct by vastly different
and more elevated standard. But the
high and heavenly standard rests on
Christian doctrine.
No doubt a man is q wretched sin
ner who knows what is right and re-
fuses to do IT. but pray tell us how
anyone can do right unless he knows
what right is?
We may say it makes no difference
what man does with equal justice
IS 70 say Il makes no difference what
he believes Indeed. If we take some
thing more than superficial view OF
moral life, We must see that TO say
.ereeis are matter OF no consequence
is just as foolish as to say deeds are
matters Of Indifference.
Moreover. doctrines supply motive
to acti6n as we'll as furnish the basis
Of ethical standards. Take for exam
pie the Christian duty of self-denial
and cross bearing If Christ be not
divine. there is neither basis nor IN
SEPARATION for such a duty. But If
Christ has died to redeem men from
sin and restore in them the image of
Cod, and is indeed the Son of God,
the duty is imperative and the moral
inspiration is unreasonable.
