T.B. GERMS THROWN ABOUT LABORATORY
Test Tube Explosion DelugeS
 Swiss BacteriOlogist

! London, Dec. 91 P}-Dr. Henry Spahlinger, noted Swiss bacteriolo- gst, was deluged with hyper-viru- lent tubercular cultures, says a Geneva dispatch to the Daily Express when a large flask burst while he was handling it in his laboratory on Wednesday.
 The scientist was not injured, but was exhausted by two hours of sub scquent work in disinfecting himself and the laboratory. He refused to permit his assistants to undergo the risk of sharing in this work.
 News of the accident comes at a time when a controversy over the efficacy of the Spahlinger tubcrcu losis treatment seems likely to be aroused, through an article contrib utcd 10 the Medical Journal The Lancet by pr. Thomas Nelson, as- sistant physician at St. Georges hos pital, London.
 Observing that few if any accurate records of the cases treated by Dr. Spahlingcr have thus far been pub lished and that the only data on which to form an opinion have been in tho nature of eulogies of the Spah- finger trcatmep4, Dr. Nelson cites the records of ten cases treated in London hospital between Novcm- Der, 1913, and August, 1914. Six Of these patients died between 1914 and 1917, Dr. Nelson declares; one died in 1922, two cannot be traced and only one was known to be living last May.
 Tt is difficult" he writes. ito say that any of these cases showed any
 improvement after the treatment. Certainly none showed marked inn provcmcnt."
 The treatment was carried out by Dr. Spahlinger himself and Dr. Lin nell. with the cooperation of the late Dr. Arthur Latham, celebrated tuberculosis expert.

BUT7LER'S DEATH
 PURELY ACCIDENT
Driver Himself to Blame,
 Coroner Rules

Bridgeport. Dec. 31 tP-Frank D. Butler, S5, of Bridgeport, met his death on December 24 on the Stratfield road in an accidental manner, Coroner J. J. Phelan de clares in finding return today.
 Butler was instantly killed and his companion, Miss Margaret Kim lin, severely injured when Buffers car crashed into a standing trolley.
 The trolley car was in charge of Motorman George Tarrant of Bridge port. In his finding the coroner states that Tarrant, noting the ap- proach of the automobile travelling in the center of the road, became convinced of the impending danger, bringing it to a standstill an instant before the crash, as the auto swerv- ed to the right but failed to avoid striking the car. Bnttler was flung to the roadway and received a frac- tured skull.
 The coroner states as follows:
 Tt appeared from the testimony of a lady passenger in the automo- bile that the trolley was seen by her at a distance of several hundred feet and in her belief presumably by Driver Butler, who was an operator of experience; that the machine was at the moment travelling at an ordi- nary rate Of speed; and that be- because of her belief in Buffers experience she assumed he would turn out and safely avoid the trolley car at the proper time.
 T am fairly convinced that But tier misjudged the distance between his moving machine and the ap- preaching trolley and failed to make the turn to the right. In view of the fact, l find that Butler met his death through no criminal careless ness upon the part of anyone"

Ladies and gentlemen, before con-

 make an announcement which will
 be of interest to you, no doubt. We
 have decided to discontinue this
 column for the remainder of the year. Conditions haven't been of the
 best and other things have contribut- cd to a miserable few weeks. hence the decision on the part Of this de- partment. We have enjoyed the CO., would like to extend to all of you the felicitations of the times, in other words, a Happy New Year!
 Last night fooled Us. During the carly part of the evening We settled down, all prepared for a lonesome few hours. Conditions were none too good. There seemed to be no volume at all and we found ourself unable to bring in anything any farther west than Schenectady, which you will admit, is not so far as the flow cries, that's wrong, as the clow fries, nope, as the fly crows, aw, We give up. You know what we mean, anyway. Dur ing that period, we managed to bring in WQAM, Miami, but nothing else of startling interest. And, too, there was buzzing and all kinds of noise, which continued throughout most of in" evening, becoming grad ually subdued. But the big surprise Cad. comparatively late. The change was rather sudden, from muddy re- ception, to clear, clean-cut, sharply defined programs. As the clock sped toward midnight reception improved and We were able to bring in most

MICR0BE EXPERIMENT
ROBS KISS OF JOY
Boy Student Puts Lips to Potato
and Results Are Enough to
Shock Any Girl.
Nv the Associated Press.


FAYETTEVILLE. Ark. March 31.-
Kisses. powder puffs and the tips of
lead pencils are taboo with students of
botany at the University of Arkansas.
Two slices of ordinary Irish potato
and a dish of gelatin are responsible.
AS a laboratory experiment one of
the students boy-was asked to
kiss slice of potato. This potato was
then interned under an alright glass
dish. Several days later the students
examined it. Four different kinds of
molds were found. They were de-
scribed as the kinds of mold found on
iellies and old shoes, and there were
several colonies of red, yellow, white
and purple bacteria.
The instructor explained that the
''pencillium" spore in the kiss had
played havoc with the potato.
Then a powder puff was borrowed
from one of the goods. 1t was busted
on another slice of potato. Six kinds
of mold as well as numerous bacteria
appeared on the potato a few days
later
& pencil point was touched to a
piece of gelatin. Two kinds of mold
developed.
The students remarked at the floral
a appearance of the results of the eX-
pertinent as seen through a micro

EPISCOPAL CHURCH
TO LAUNCH CRUSADE
Bishops Prepare for Countrywide
Missions to Stress Christ's
Saviorhood Soon.

John w. Irwin, field secretary of
the department Of publicity of the
National Council of the Episcopal
Church, is in Washington in consulta-
ton with Right Rev. Thomas c. Darst.
chairman of the National .Commission
on Evangelism, and the members of
his staff at their offices in the grounds
of the National Cathedral. Prepara-
tions for the bishops crusade require
that the members Of the Episcopal
Church throughout the country shall
be thoroughly informed of the objects
and plans. In appreciation of this, the
department of publicity has placed
all of it's machinery az the disposal OF
the commission.
The bishops crusade will begin in
tensive work January 10. The period
of organized preparation begins on
November 80, which is st. Andrews
day. Between these dates it is expect
ed that every parish of the Episcopal
Church will form classes and prayer
groups and will hold certain definite
meetings, all of which are being ar
ranged by the commission. The COM
mission is selecting large number
of bishops, other clergymen, laymen
and women as crusaders, who, In
teams of three. will visit all parts Of
the country holding five-day missions.
Speaking of the bishops crusade,
Bishop Freeman says: THE National
Commission on Evangelism, assum-
ing the obligations laid upon it by the
general church, makes an appeal to
bishops and clergy over the Nation
today. The commission feels that no
re esponsibility of obligation that de-
wolves upon the ministry exceeds in
importance that now commended to
1t. in placing it's whole accent upon
the Saviorhood of Christ and the need
of a reconsecration to Him and His
kingdom.
1.-The criticalness of the world con-
ditions make the fulfillment of our
obligation a matter of supreme and
urgent impOrtanCe."
