SAVE MANY LIVES
BY Bethesda 3. Buchanan.

Though there has been a gratifying
reduction of deaths from tuberculosis
in the registration area of the United
States in the last decade, when the
rate was cut from over 200 per 100000
population in 1911 to approximately
100 in 1921, saving of over $4,000
lives last year alone, an enviable rec
ord has also been made in Washington
in the same period. In 1911, the rate
was 1861 deaths per 100000, while in
1921 it was 1907, a record that puts
Washington in the group of states
having the lowest rate in the United
States. Considering this reduction in
the terms of human lives, it means
that If the rate Of 1911 had prevailed
for the decade, in 1921 there would
have been 1882 deaths from tubercu-
losis instead of the 1927 which actual
ly occurred, a saving of 335 lives on
1921 alone.
Shall Washington rest on her pres
ent record or shall the campaign of
education and prevention be pushed
into the remOtest places in the state
and nation? 1t is worth while and
will the rate go up or continue to
fall? That is the problem and the
answer lies in the response to the APP
peal of the Christmas seal which is
the financial backbone of the county,
state and national campaigns and has
made this record possible. Millions
of these gay little holiday stickers will
be on sale December 1, and everyone
in Washington will have chance to
take part in the work by buying or
selling seals.

POINTS ABOUT corTER PINS
Il Is Not Necessary to Bend Ends over
Flat Against Bolt or Rod, Says
Motor Life.

After having slipped the cotter pin
into place, do not bend the ends
over fiat against the bolt or rod, ad-
ylses Motor Life. 1t isn't necessary
to do this, because the cotter will lock
just as securely If the ends are spread
just enough to prevent slipping out
When the ends are bent considerably.
1t is harder to straighten them sufi-
GENTLY for later removal of the pin,
and, further. the ends are very apt
to break OF when the part is in serv-
Ice, with the very probable result that
the nl-treated cotter will slip out.
Thus, instead Of excessive end bend
ing being an effective locking means,
1t is in reality no lock at all.
