MINER QUIT 2S YEARS AGO WHEN
 FORTUNE WAS, WITHIN HIS GRASP
CONCRETE APPLIED TO
 STRENGTHEN STEEL
New Method Whereby Structures Are Strengthened Is Being
 Tested Out.

Columbus, Ohio, March % Pl- Results of the first day of tests al the engineering experiment station Ut Ohio State university of a new method of applying concrete to new or old structural steel to strengthen 1t, were described as highly satis- factory by Prof. J. 'R. Shank of the department of engineering. one of the factulty members conducting tho experiment.
 The new process which consists of applying special concrete mixture under high pressure was used on a lo foot section of 24 inch beam taken from steel section of a con demned Chicago bridge. The steel, which was badly corroded, was given the treatment 2S days ago.
 Under testing machines at the laboratory, the beam failed to show any sign of breaking under a maxi mum stress of 25GO00 pounds pres sure, as contrasted with 1lo.O0O pounds Of resistance which the beam was rated as having when 1t was new.
 Inventors of the new process had estimated the beam would withstand 24Q,0oo pounds pressure after treat. ment.
 Structural engineers from q num- Der of railroads and manufacturing firms as well as university officials ar" attending the tests which will be continued through next week.

BIGOTRY IS SLAVERY

In his annual message to Con- gress, President Coolidge said bluntly: "Bigotry is only another name for slavery" How the bigots do sweat to prove the truth!
 The day the Presidents messago was published one could read in a fanatical sheet which labors for 5ind alley Americanism such senti- ments as: "We will not tolerate tn Negro in America, Roman Cathol- lcism must get out of America" !" and, sixteen times repeated, This mentality must get out of Ameri- ca.''
 In single issue this annony- nous editor rules out at least a third of his fellow citizens! It wouldn't take long for him to be, borrowing MT. Dooley's phrase, "all alone in the U. s. A. "
 Nothing so much proves the rock-bottom need and the heavenly wisdom of tolerance as does the nonsense talked by those who have focused themselves to believe Christ said, Hate ye one another" We all know better any time within six months of Christmas. Golfers Weekly.

HEATH NOIES
TRACHOMA CONTROL

Effort to control Trachoma ha been made by the Public Health Service since 1913 through small hospitals thoughout the country where the eye affection exists.
 Trachoma is essentially a surgi- { cal disease of the eye, the actual cause of which has never been de- tcrmined. In order that a control of this disease might be secured the Health Service realized that educa- tion was an essential factor in the prevention of the disease.
 In a description of the steps taken by the Health Service in cop ing with the trachoma problem in this country it was explained that immigration laws forebade the inn portation of the disease into the United States since 1897, but no concerted effort was made to eradi | cate the disease until 1913. Prior to that time there was no prece- dent for dealing with trachoma as public health menace and the plans were worked out by the pub lie health service through a process of evolution.
 Because trachoma when once contracted is essentially surgical disease, it was stated that the prob fem was attacked by establishing small ophthalmologica hospitals in the centers of known infection, and as the incidence of infection was greatest in rural districts, these small hospitals were located in sec tions remote from the railroads and their establishment was ac- 1 complished with much difficulty.
 The personnel of these small hospitals comprised one eye speci alist and two trained nurses with other necessary help. Inas- much as education was recognized as a salient factor in the proven ton of the disease, information was spread by personal visits and talks by the doctors and nurses in the homes, schools and churches, In the infected territories and the! distribution of literature also was undertaken. In cooperation with the hospitals, fieid clinics were con- ducted, in which Federal, State and local health authorities CO., operated. Treatment, it was ex- plained was. by "gratage'' for tra- choma, and by appropriate opera ttons for the various deformaties which are medically known as ''se- quel@."
 This method officials declared, proved effective, and as result, some of the States have incorporat- ed trachoma control measures as a permanent part of the program of the State Board of Health. In the past two years, officials asserted, one State gave relief to 2,O0O per sons suffering from trachoma. In addition, because of the remarkable results obtained in trachoma work, some States have found it much less difficult to secure funds for other public health work.
