Meet in October

The annual conference of the
Michigan tuberculosis association
this year will be held in Grand Gapids
it is announced by the association,
and not in Lansing, as has been the
custom.
And thereby hangs a tale. The
meeting is held in Grand Rapids be-
cause the new municipal sanatorium
in that city will be about ready to
open then. By celebrating the events
at the same time, emphasis is laid
on the Importance of the new institu-
ton, and the state association is pay
ing its tribute to the enterprise and
intelligence of the community that
erected the institution.
No definite announcement is being
made in regard to the future, but it
is entirely likely that after this the
state association will hold its annual
gathering in various parts of the
state, wherever there happens to be
such an event as the opening of a
sanatorium to observe. This policy
is Of benefit both to the local COM
munity and to the health interests of
the association and the state as a
whole
The dates for the annual confer
ence this year are October and 6.
