TUBERCULOSIS Is
THE FOE OF YOUTH
DR.. Wolman Says Tt Is a
Special Enemy of Girls
and Young Women

tuberculosis has been called
the foe of YOUTH said DR.. Samuel
Wolman, president of the Mary
land tuberculosis Association,
''but one could go even further
and call it the enemy of girls and
young women as nearly one and
one-half times as many die from
the disease as do males in the
same age group.
'The tuberculosis death rate
has been reduced by almost two
thirds since the organized fight
against it was commenced thirty
years ago. Studying the figures
closely, however, we find that tu-
berculosis is still the leading
cause of death between the ages
of Is and As. I'VE also discover"
DR.. Wolman continued, "that one
out of every four deaths among
young women between the ages
of Is and 80 is caused by tubercu-
losis."
The reason for this extremely
high death rate among young wo-
men is not known. 1t is one of the
major mysteries of public health.
In an investigation made by the
National tuberculosis Association
to discover the reason for this.
a careful study of the life histories
of all girls between these ages
who died of tuberculosis in a sim
gle year in Detroit and New York
city was made. 1t was found
that industrialization was not the
cause as approximately IS per
cent. of them had never been en-
ployed outside their homes and 20
per cent. had been employed less
than year. Dieting, scanty cloth
ing and educational levels were
all discarded in turn. A recent
study in New York has shown
that young women, with tubercu-
losis in their homes, were very
remlss IN getting the proper ex-
animation for themselves.
Every case comes from an
other case" DR.. Wolman added.
Every case can be traced back
to parent, grandparent, relative,
friend or someone with whom the
patient has been in frequent con-
tact. The chief concern of every
one should be to teach the par
ents of daughters the importance
Of frequent physical examina-
tons. If this is done the disease
can be discovered early, and
when it is discovered early it is
nearly always cured. Young wo-
men themselves" DR.. Wolman
concluded should make ian eff
fort to consult a physician fire.

they have been in contact with

The Wise Man
BY Hubert !. shifIer Jr.

He thinks wisdom greater wealth
than riches,
Loves his books far more thai
gold;
Thinks a pipe and dog the best
companion
To other things in life his heart
is cold.
He knows that wealth will only
bring him sorrow,
The rich men he regards as fools.
For he contentment finds alone
with nature
His gold the sun, the stars his
jewels.
He looks upon his fellow-man
with pity
What fools these mortals be, he
signs.
Their lives are even spent in
hurry
From mornings dawn, til evening
shades the skies.
