To Commemorate
Discovery Of Germ
OF tuberculosis
Nation Will Do Honor to DIR. Robert
Koch, Benefactor of Humanity
Continues His Work.

An announcement that there will be
nationwide commemoration IN
March. 1882. of the discovery OF the
germ Of tuberculosis by a German
physician. Robert Koch, about so years
AGO. has been received by Mrs. Alice
Farris. local seal sale chairman, from
the Montana tuberculosis Association
There are now 2084 associations IN the
country engaged in the Christmas seal
campaign and these will participate IN
appropriate ceremonies everywhere 10
honor the name of the man who iirst
made if possible to begin the fignt
against tuberculosis.
In planning the anniversary celebra-
ton of the discovery of the germ, tu-
berculosis associations will point out
that modern bacteriology has been
built on the methods used by Koch,
saws Mrs. Farris. Hundreds of disease
germs have been isolated since his dis
covery and many Of them have sue
cumbed to remedies produced by the
scientific research following their dis
covery. Yet the germ of tuberculosis It
self. specialists have found, up to this
time has defied the quest of scientists
for a specific cure. Persons having the
disease respond to rest, fresh air, and
proper food and this is the treatment
for the disease today Many thousands
of persons have taken the rest cure
as it is called and are well today al
though at one time they were given
diagnosis of tuberculosis.
Efforts are being made by the Re
search Committee Of the National Tu-
berculosis Association which has been
working through laboratories OF leading
universities throughout the country
since 1922 to find specific cure.
Five percent Of the seal sale from
every state goes to maintain the Ma
tional tuberculosis Association anc
part Of this is used to conduct the re-
search work

home by fire early Monday morning.
They were eating breakfast when the
upper story was found to be in flames
and they had time to save but few
things. The fire is supposed to have

was no chimney.
