Columbus, N. M. March 21—Walting here for orders to move across the border are several thousand members of the army, and the government in the service of the government. These men are ready to lay down their lives for a country that will not permit them to fight alone in armor with the nuns nor ride on same street cars. The American newspapers have made things still worse by continual slurs or "darky soldiers," "Norgate," and other names on enn papers have gone so far as to allude to these fighting troops as so "n—soldier, it seems that in this day and time the enemy has been on the seventh and eighth floors behind a typewriter and those who claim to have meant a common school education and not own faculties when they write of such men who have stood the brunt of the battle, while these so-called editors at middle school have been at the middle of March and try to cast curses on them are protecting American property and American lives. Patriotism begins at home, we dare say that these some of us have been in the position to jackass if they heard a camera or smelt gunpowder. The killing of the member of the Tenth has set the boys to think of the enemy in a ninth position to be in, and the sympathy of the race men is with them.

Among the Negroes and they ought to be given a chance to express themselves for the ultimate benefit of the whole population, and to understand that it will be one of greatest boons to the Negro that can possibly come to him," he continued. From their own people, who understand them best and who can direct their thought and inspirations to better and nobler efforts for their own mental and material interests, Mr. Jones has established headquarters at the Young Men's Christian Association, where he will attend the conference of the sale of the book which they ultimately result in a national magazine.

PRICE OF HAPPINESS
PRICE OF HAPPINESS
Mary Island, who comes to the States Theater on Sunday, April 2nd, featured the great production. The role of the impersonator is the interest list on the couch, but for six years supported the great legitimate star, John Drew, the most popular of the Picture Company, and the Price of the picture would secure it for this single date only.
The bitter experiences of a woman who envies her more fortune friends and the wealth of her life are dramatically revealed in this great five-part production. Bertha Miller is the young wife of an industrialist who has fortune but hardly luxurious circumstances and Bertha at times finds it difficult to stule the envious longings in her by persuasion. The rial success of her former girl friends.
Three of these former chums of Bertha have had particular success, in the sense that they can buy. Bertha and her three friends reunite when they go to meet a steamship group who has become an opera singer. Bertha is invited to visit each of her three friends and it is in the course of the action of the picture is unfolded.
Bertha first visits the beautiful home of Ruth Tailor, and there receives her first kiss. Bertha is very pleasant in Ruth's world as they appear on the surface. She finds Ruth in a new suite, and learns that she has been married to her husband will discover it. Bertha agrees to help Ruth out of her trouble, and in doing so nearly estranges her husband from her husband. Lacille, the opera singer, has a handsome suite of rooms in a fashionable hotel. Bertha finds Lacille in despair over her husband's absence, and has been given to another singer. Bertha learns to her surprise that Lacille's life is in no way so happy as she had before. Bertha meets the same scene when Lacille has Bertha meet the man whom Lacille loves and expects to marry. The man, Bertha, is in the middle of her life, in which she and her husband live. Lacille is heart-broken when she learns that her love is married and the father
The third seemingly successful girl friend, Evelyn, lives in a pretty apartement and has no cores nor worries. Bertha who is induced to go out to a gay party with Evelyn that Evelyn leaves, receives to her a girlfriend who Evelyn leaves and luxurious living are being paid for in the old way of the underworld. It is the same as the false gaze of Broadway's night-life. she delves her final disillusionment and disillusionment, and her friends' careless. All easy wrist friend her heart and she returns to her steady, hard-working husband and her little sister. The careless is after all, the real success of her. Any one who has known what it is to do, will learn the folly of such a course and be much more contented with his or her lot after seeing this remarkable photo-play and be much more contented with matrice will start at 3 o'clock sharp.
The people who review dvaudeville in Canada represent not only the newspapers, but at the present time their reverence for the show is official, official officials, supposedly on account of the conditions existing there the European war started. There is a code used, "V.B." for the vaudeville, "B" for bad, etc. "V.V.V." means "wile and very vulgar" here in the Statea. "B" is also used opposite an act it is generally "curtails," Brown and Carita Day struck a little burg up where up the Aurora Borealis shines the wightest in the usual usual riot on opening night. Miss Day always liked to see what comment was made in reference to the "big act" in the local papers, and she wrote it in the same usual riot write-up next day, following Day & Brown, the fatal "3 Ws." She hunted up her partner and together they rushed to the stage, where they explained. A little bald-handed Hebrew was the "theatrical crítica" on the sheet, and his face lighted up wonderfully. The card which Tom tossed on his desk.
"I am glad to meet you," he said
that he would be honored. He enjoyed
the net very much last night."
It was fifteen minutes before Day &
when were able to leave the newspaper
office.
Can a woman play vampire parts on the screen or stage and retain her self-respect. This question is often asked. The vampire plays a central role, awarded by one who should know -Theda Bara, star of the William Fox production, "Gold and the Woman," which which won the Academy Award for Best Picture and Sunday, April 1st and 2nd -at the Washington theater. Miss Bara declares that vampire action and a "guard rod for the woman" will be essential to you will be -not incompatible. e treats the subject of sex pictures in refreshingly frank way. The vampire is so-called sex drama against a so-called sex drama against demanded s Bara. "Sex is the most vital in
THEATRICAL REVIEW
THE GRAND
Patricia is in the headliner here this week and she maintains the great reputation earned in doo doo houses. She has a personality which exactly how to put her work over. Her rendition of My Mother's Rosary, in which she plays with a violin, was easily her best number, although the Yildiz Blues and the Honolulu Hula number both earned much hand. A posting act, the best seen in the Fashion Show, although it would be hard to tell why. Johnson & Rollin's The Fashion Show, although it would be eccentric dancing and acrobatic work of the comedian standing out. Chisholm & green introduced a new sketch which was good. Oliver Tucker which was good, the bill being completed by Mantel's Marinettes, which repeated the last half that last held over Robinson & Nicola, who continued to do well. Hilie Lingard, the English play girl, opened it and was well received. She was a great actress, the hooda comedian of ordinary ability. The Ross & Fenton Players turned on a hurries called A Modern Closetau which was great. European jingling act, which was great, was last on and introduced many novel features for the new Futon. Co are an
THE MONOGRAM.
Whitman Sisters' vaulted aggregation has been moved here from the New Monogram, and are on their final week. The company is open Monday night, despite the inclement weather, and they used an entirely changed routine. This company has set up a new office at both city and both on and off the stue. The entire cast has established great reputations for department. The Whitman company will find a warm welcome on the Stirling.
NEW MONOGRAM.
Gardner & Graham, formerly with the Smart Set Co., opened the bill here with Gartner's comedy, and danced act, Gartner's comedy is good. Ham has an excellent wardrobe and the minutes that the band is on, Miles Morris, the comedy jungler, is back with new stunts in the jugging and balancing line. Ham Tree Harrington and Maud Mills are an excellent team. Miss Morris is a comedian, much cleverness. Ham Tree is funny, and his work is clean. They open with a bazoose jacket and Mills and their talk is funny. Ham Tree's Uphact act. Harrington & Mills were Standard in Philadelphia, best work.
Among the Movies

This is Miss Mara's greatest success.

The Strage Case of Mary Pace, 10th episode, was run in conjunction with The Strage Case of Mary Pace, 10th episode, a content business on Monday. During the remainder of the week we had chapter 10, and the rest of the book is shown in serial form here each Tuesday.

Our big song revue, which was based on the book, gelling in popularity, is also our same Saturday matinee. Sunday we have H. B. Warner in The Raiders. This is a Triangle feature direct from the Colored Comics series with a two-part Keystone comedy.

TWELVE STARS!
How Molly Made Good will be the feature at the States Theater on Saturday, April 1st. A remarkable array of actors, including two twelve stars of giant magnitude taking active parts. The list includes Margarita Gale, Julian Ellinge, May Robbins, Kate Winslet, Fenton, Julia Dean, Henrietta Crossman, Mine, Fiorde, Cyril Scott, Robert Edison and Charles J. Ross. The scenario is from the pen of Buras Mantle, a costume artist and acting peep into the mysteries of a newspaper office. It is a picture you can rent from a costume, action, animation and atmosphere. There are many things that Mantle failed to put into this scenario-neeroplanes, horses, tortoises trains and every other mode of transportation. Molly Made Good is a supreme motion picture achievement. It had a long run the Fine Art Theater on Michigan Avenue.

fluence in life. From the time a person in door into the wood he is constantly in danger of being killed. What the word sex' use it in its true sense, which is its best sense. Most people are bad women just the same as there are bad men. Is there any reason that the bad woman should not be shown on TV? Is it a profit by being nice, or a profit by seeing what invades she can see?
One of the strongest vampire parts ever portrayed by Miss Barr is the part of her body that is Gold and the Woman. In her base efforts to separate her victim from his host, she uses her murderer to be inserted to. Through her an entire tribe of real Indians are blowered up, and every foot of this remembrance is replete with intrigue, heart's interest and excitement. This enchantment for Satan is the most important matinees. This great feature just got by the censor board and is on a shelf. This will positively be no children admitted.
ONE DAY.
The most sensational photo-play of the year. One Day, has been booked by the Washington Funicular on Monday, April 3rd. One Day is the sequel to "The Washington Funicular," Weeks, and if anything, is much more radical. It is wonderfully presented by a great cast and sensation after sensation, which causes everybody who witnesses it tingle with interest. One Day comes for this one day only, with the usual mat-

A REFUTATION.
Our reporter visited the Plleford theater at 53th street and Michigan avenue last Saturday as a special guest with the director, his manager, Mr. Rice. Both gentlemen were much peeved at certain reports which had gained wide circulation in the district in reference to discrimination against the director, Mr. Lynch, "that it is our policy to make everybody welcome at this theater, and that its patronage is earnestly solicited in our community." Whatever the policy of our predecessors was along that line, I do not know, but you cannot make my statement that the director is emphatically coined with the owner, and in glancing through the audience the reporter recognized many of the things that are or any other theater in the district should be reported to the owner or manager of the place at once, as many missteps were made to thoughtless and mental employees.
GRAND CONCERT.
Memphis, Tennessee. The famous Roger Williams University Singers of Nashville, Teen, under the direction of Mrs. A. M. H. Larson, performed here on Friday, 17th. This was their first appearance in the Bluff City Choir, and they were benefited as well as delightfully entertained. The members of the troupe were at their best and were rehearsing arrangements are being made for a return engagement. The troupe gave a Sacramento Concert at the Chapel of the Episcopal Bapst. Sunday night. T. J. Searse, Sunday night. The church was crowded long before the hour for the time of service. The very generous and liberal members of the choir, them. After the program Hon. T. H. Hayes, the philanthropist, talked at the program with the choir and spoke warmly of the efforts of the young people. The Singers brought the choir to a close touch with the people of Memphis they feel that Dr. A. M. Townsend, its president, should be supported in the work of $12.50 was donated to the school.

Among them is one man who is a member of Company 3. Battalion 14, who holds the Canadian score for team in the Canadian race, it being used "example" at all target practices. His name is F. S. Simmons. Billy Johnson's song, "What a Real Creature," which I am using with great success, has been adopted by the Canadian Army, and is being sung by all the soldiers.

By J. Fred A. McConico). Birmingham — The members of the face of Alabama are beginning to show their resentment to the Republican party in the state. They believe in the right to vote. They believe in true Republicanism — the Republicanism that saved the Union, that destroyed slavery, that made prosperity, that regarded not the color of the people, but the country in which he lived, but a party that declared equal rights to all, spearheaded the Civil War, and Robinson, pastor of the First Baptist Church, Decatur, Ala., while in Birmingham visited Mirk's Old Book Store and the Museum of the Civil War, storing the above mentioned church twenty-one years, a record not easily duplicated. The members of the First Baptist Church will be attending 20. After the routine of business, which was planning the celebration of their 100th anniversary, were entertained by a liberal clergy member. The refreshment was arranged in modern style. The hyndnell, upon the beautifully covered welcome, the fragrance of welcome. The refreshment pleased the music was grand. The occasion was one of enjoyment, every face was made, every heart bore expression of gladness, every soul contented—made happy.

New York, March 31. - Fighting isn't much of a business when you become adept at it, so successful it is. In fact, when they do appear, have, strangely, already grown so that you have to hire a lawyer to advise you if you are fighting against the boss. You don't believe it ask Lee Johnson, who happens to be the long pin of lightness, weight since the battle of Tunker Hill. Friday night at the Vanderbilt A. C. all-star show Lee faced Young Hicka, a his girlfriend, his big sister, incidentally. Hicka is very much a welterweight. The announced weights showed that he had ten pounds, but he had supreme confidence that he would drop Johnson without much trouble. It probably showed Hicka that he had supreme confidence that he made things interesting. Being able to get right in and shamelessly because of a number of things, of which he was the boss and Johnson own had left hand, which was swapped badly, Lee gave Hicka a few beads in hosting and cleverness. It was because of Hicka's superior weight
THE END OF PRIZE FIGHTING
Willard-Moran Fight and Color Line in Bouts Sees Doom of the Fistic Game—New York Up in Arms Against Fighters.
New York City, March 24 — "Stop prize fighting in New York." That is the slogan. The white papers have started a campaign, headed by William Randolph Hearst, that will be a show by the game. The campaign will be a show by the game, because they demand an equal distance in the ring, regardless of color, which the boxing commission has decided. William Hearst then fight was a money-making proposition. Nobody took much stock in it. Moran said after that, "What does this mean? It simply means that the whites who know positively that Johnson was never whipped by Willard, and that today, notwithstanding his age, he has this ever given."
Last Saturday night, the Wabash Avenue Y. N. M. C. A. heavyweight basket ball team met and defeated the two fast 16s of the out-of-town tournament at Evanston, Illinois. Both games were hard and fast with two excellent passing and good team work. The response from the Wabash team was to prise up the large and enthusiastic bunch of rooters from Evanston. The lightweight from the suburban town of Wabash was the team that the Wabash boys, still feeling the pains of defeat from the results of the two previous games, went into the battle against the Wabash boys. They passed the ball all around their opponents' hands and shot basket at will. At the end of the first half the Evanston team scored 16 to 14 in the feat. The score stood 16 to 7 against them. They came back in the second half with blood in their eyes and a defensive fight, but it was useless. The city boys carried them off their feet and when the battle was over the score stood 33 to 16 against the out-of-town Indians. The

that Johnson surmised that this flipping westerton was far from a gentle chance ofinking a good showing against the clever Johnson was by tearing in, bailing matters and trusting to luker or opening for a stiff K. O. punch. Against anyone less versed in the art of self-fighting, but against Johnson he was quite a failure. That is, he failed in what he planned. He didn't find any opening for him, but he did find two loofs of feet once and saving his life in injuries around his own system. Hicks was so much larger and stronger than Johnson, he could bite him twice or two feet once and save his life in slides. But he did this just once. He received a blow in the eye for doing this to a membered during the remainder of the season.
Johnson's left hand was badly swollen and prevented him from jabbing. He took hook with the thighed hand and tried to pain. This saved Hicks a lot of unness. Hicks made a good tight of the mil after the first couple of rounds. In the second session he was more prone of shock than in the other fingers sizing each other up. After the second Johnson started hooking with his left, boring in and working for the wind. Johnson at times, and at other times finding himself corrupted. Most of Hicks' blows rolled off Johnson's guard. Sedum did he land cloudy, and then never landed. Johnson at times, and at other times starting in to close Hicks' legs in the fourth round and kept perching away at it until the end. Hicks head bent back, and his wind was a celerer of attack for Johnson's right. Johnson was much the best on the in-tightness, although Hicks was also cool in its resemblance to Johnson was far too much for Hicks.
Though it was by his wonderful cleverness that Johnson overcame te advantage that Ikkas had in weight he was not. He was not the one that he won. In the semi-final but between Young Thompson and Your Chyton the latter quit after the little run came to an end. He was in the hands. The going had been resh for him, and Thompson had hit him and offered but Chyton insisted to forfeit the ball. Johnson was inflicted, so the latter called things off.

AWAKENING OF SPRING.
A lot of folks would like to know just how it's figured out
That spring begins the twenty-first of March or thereabout;
For half the time the weather is on that particular date
So bleak and cold it's "confy" like to huddle round a grate.
Perhaps it's just a notion that one always thinks of spring
As coming in with flowers, gentle winds, and birds that sing;
But snow and rain and hail and sleet and winds that blow a gale
Have little tendency to lure one to the woodland trail.

There is nothing very elevating about prize-fighting—simply a matter endurance and brute force; at least it was so considered the moment Mr.inson assumed the title role. But of course this is a free country and plebe have the privilege of changing their minds as often as they care to as often as occasion demands. Now, prize-fighting is a many art; it retires a high degree of mentality and a perfect control of the human body, is white prize-fighter is an idol, a thing of beauty and a pattern for future iterations to go by.

A HOMELY OLD SAYING but a true one, "give a calf enough rope and he will hang himself." The state of Georgia has reached such a low plane that its citizens are looked upon as only partially civilized. The finger of scorn is pointed at them from every direction of the globe. For instance, at the New York Hippodrome, where some ten thousand people a day witness the performance, one of the features was "The March of the States." When the Georgia representation appears the only classification on the six young women to show they represented the Empire State of the South, one of the original thirteen colonies, were devices on their dresses and pennons depicting men hanging by the neck from trees.
Georgia—lynch law; synonymous terms. Not a man, woman or child in the theater but what knew at once what state was meant by the display of lynching pictures. Every other state was treated with elaborate compilations as due Georgia and as due Alabama, and denying the minister offered the state will have over the country the jection of this one agency alone. And add to this the numerous editorials, news items, personal observations and denunciations of lynchings heightened by the record of that state during the past two years, even the densest can get an idea of what the sentiment is against this state.
Judge W. W. Lambkin of the federal court of the southern district answers in reply to the query, "What is the best way to put an end to lynching?" One sheriff who shows real grit and courage will forever put an end to lynching in his county, and a few HANGINGS OF LYNCHERS would stop this crime in our state." Another best remedy is the inculation of a moral sentiment that lynching is plain, flat, unadulterated murder, and will have, in that dreadful day, to be answered for as such. Decent people wonder how and why this relic of barbarianism shows its head in this supposedly enlightened age. It is little wonder when we find editor's excuse "justifying mob rule, such as the following taken from" paper in Oklahoma City, OKA:
"The reason why southern mobs of white men prefer to visit summary punishment on black criminals is this: The Negro with his superstitions and his motions of religion looks upon a legal execution as something of a social event, much as the ancient Irish are reputed to have regarding a wake. To his mind the ebony-haired criminal captain which can be placed and Negro minister exhorting loudly by his side, is creature entirely of the ordinary—one who has achieved prominence in the public eye ordinarily denied mobs of the race and worthy of no little envy. But this method conveys no warning and teaches no lesson to the untutored minds of other Negroes.
"With a lynching it is different. The legal execution is cold-blooded and business-like; the lynching is anarchistic and the passions of men are unrestrained. The spectacle of a body swinging from a limb by the roadway carries with it a greenswomenism which Negroes for fifty miles around do not forget for a generation. It is a solemn warning—a pledge of what others may expect under certain conditions." We would simply like to add that the man who would voice such sentiments. It is conceded the press molds public opinion. What class of people must this paper appeal to?

They believe it is weak-minded northerners into a fist of the National Encampment of the Army from Washington, D.

FEE unless he is his own master in the exercise of the noblest that
ALTHOUGH THE STARS AND STRIPES float over the North and the South alike, there is still a wide gap between the two sections—a gap that will take perhaps another century to close. The South has never been reconciled to her defeat; they believe their cause was right as strongly today as they did some fifty years ago. They believe it so strongly that they are actually tweedling weak-minded northerners into agreeing with them.
The promoters of the National Encampment of Confederate Veterans are seeking an invitation from Washington, D. C., to hold their meetings in the capital city. Of all the unmitigated nerve this seems to take the blue ribbon. Imagine the spectacle of the Confederate flag flaunted in parade through the streets of a city that these same veterans fought four years to capture with the hope of destroying, together with the government.
If there is such a thing as the bitter feeling dying out between the two sections, it certainly would receive a severe setback if those who are constantly seeking to crowd the rebellion down the throats of the rest of the country are given the ghost of a chance to do so. Washington is the last place where such a thing should be attempted. If the Confederate veterans wish to show their loyalty to the United States they might begin by having their gray uniforms dyed blue.
REPUBLICAN ST. LOUISE voted over two to one for segregation, but even decent Republicans, if they live long enough in such a prejudiced hole, lose their sense of justice. You can't play with dirt without getting your hands soiled.
THE JAPANESE are slipping out of this country as fast as they can for their own home town, which leads a number of alarmists to believe that the little yellow fellows mean to return loaded for bear. Well, if the worst comes to the worst we can have our Mr. Wilson send them a few of his famous notes; perhaps they will soothe their injured feelings.
STILL, it is better to have a man like Roosevelt in the President's chair, who has the reputation of doing big things well, than a man like Wilson, who has the reputation of waiting for something to turn up, and by so doing places the country in a bushel of embarrassing situations.
WHO SAYS CHICAGOANS ARE NOT CLEAN? The water bureau has computed that there is enough water used daily to allow 237 gallons to each man, woman and child in the city. And it isn't all used Saturday night either.
PANCHO VILLA is a slippery cuss. He knows mighty well that we are trying to catch him, and still he persists in making our boys in blue earn their twelve dollars per month. This, too, in the face of the fact that we are unprepared to do any heavy work. Isn't he just horrid?
THE LITTLE WESTERN LAD who refused to salute the American flag jumped into prominence in the twinkling of an eye. He was at least honest in his convictions, which is more than can be said of a great many who pose as unadulterated loyal Americans only to gain some selfish point or to be in a position to betray their trust to some unfriendly power. With the lad it wasn't a question of disloyalty; it was a question of principle. And he in his childish fashion voiced the sentiment of many older people in this broad land.

The Negro question has been injected into our state campaign. It can accomplish no good while its agitation always resembles animosity that should have been relegated to oblivion long ago. The Negro has been eliminated from the political arena and the least remain buried forever. Such is the desirability of the best elements of the race, because they know that it is for the best to live with the white people, among whom they live and who have the inherent right to rule the country."

"The Parker people cannot evade the race issue that their association with Roosevelt arouses, for Roosevelt is the man who has been the northern stunt that has not, fact, the love of the Negro as a basis, but a distaste for the southern ideal with preference things rises. So long ago, Negro is here the race question, as it affects his relation to the white race socially and governmentally is and will continue to be the paramount issue." Roosevelt's dining with Booker in the White House was not, infact, the coarsest thing that he did to show his connection to the racial distinction, for, if reports were true—and he never denied it—he had, as governor of New York, a young Negro student in the executive mania for a week. "I could put men on the stand, if they cared to run the risk, might easily sweat that they personally knew of comedy, that they were in the hustling and Tuskegee that proved beyond all doubt that Roosevelt made Booker Washington his advisor and final arbiter in passing upon his qualifications of
"Think of a white man, so-called, and the president of the United States—which, possibly, includes the South—going over the northern states to choose a Negro to say whether or not white applicants were fit to secure federal government in their own states." Finally, Mr. Editor, allow me to say this: If Parker is defeated by the injection he is simply a victim of his paucistic class. Parker's ancestors brought the Negro at the behest of greed, they keep him here in spite of the miserable conditions his presence produces.
"When the common people are finally freed, Negro is costing the white race in industrial stagnation and backwardness, and in social demoralization; when they come to the countryside to curb the institutes, including the abominable crimes he is committing, they will no longer tolerate his presence, that the rich may have servants and the landlords tenant."

FACTS ABOUT TUBERCU
LOSIS—SEX, AGE.
Tuberculosis is a very generous disease; it has no responder of person, sex nor race; under certain conditions, it will affect all persons, and different members of the human family alike. If the colored races (we mean is this particular, Japanese, Chinese, Indians, Hindus, Malayans, Negroes), live and work under certain inviting factors, they are sure to have tuberculosis. The same holds true with the write races. The prevalence of tuberculosis is due largely to certain conditions and contributory factors, and not so much to race as was once thought.
Factors and Conditions
Factors and Conditions.
Now, among the factors contributing to the amount of tuberculosis in any given race, community or people may be mentioned bad personal, community and public hygiene. A person who is poorly clothed, poorly fed over worked in any unsanitary working place, under fed as well as poorly fed, whose body is not well groomed in the way of bathing, etc., will suc cumb much more quickly to tuberculosis than one who has good food good clothing, comfortable bed in which sleep, good warm fire, good air (when in the house and out), one whose body is properly bathed and cared for, and good reasonable work ing hour under proper sanitary conditions;
housing as a Factor.
Do you know the place where one resides is a very important factor in its more uplift, as well as his physical wellbeing? Bad housing conditions as well as bad working conditions are very important factors in producing tuberculosis. In bad housing, weighed the plumbing bad, the ventilation bad, the cellar and basement often damp and water standing in rooms, rooms are dark, walls are dingy and dirty and often contain germs that are very detrimental to health. Old houses have been for years important factors in the distribution of tuberculosis; and this is doubly true as to the dissemination of tuberculosis among colored people, for the reason, owing to the American prejudice or the poor wages paid the wage owner, the colored people have not been able to secure proper sanitary and wholesome places in which to live. High rents and the high cost of living they have been compelled to rent on a large portion of their quarters to roomers and thus bring about over crowding which is also a great factor in producing tuberculosis.
The Moral
Shun as much as possible these old, abandoned houses, however charming they may appear to you from the outside, because they are dangerous and often contain germs that will soower or later, undermine and rob you of your health.
We would advise that you secure small modern apartments—of three, four or six rooms the most, and depend upon, with the capacity of the wage earner. This will be conductive to better health—independence, and safeguard the morals of the wife and children.
Sex plays a very important role in tuberculosis. As a rule, more males are afflicted with tuberculosis than females; it is also true that more males die of tuberculosis than females. This may be due to the fact that the male members of the human family are exposed to a more hazardous life than the females. Then, too, the males are exposed to more un- favorable working conditions, where there is foul air saturated with cigar and cigarette, smoke, in saloons, pool rooms, and in lodge halls, etc.; and then, too, the alcoholic problem, while very common among women, is more frequent among men. Then, too, regular habits among us as to sleeping, eating, bathing, and rest are all factors that must be reckoned with. Home sickness and worry are factors among young boys and men that leave home early—who sow their wild oats and get broke—money all gone—friends desert them—that have insufficient food—too much beer and free lunch—these all tend to lower the resisting powers of the body and often render these young men and boys victims of tuberculosis and candidates for early graves.
Tuberculosis is essentially a disease of early adult life; excepting for very great infection in early childhood—
most people succumb to this disease between the ages of 15 and 40 years. Grim Death reaches her greatest harvest of victims between the age of 27 and 35 years. This is the time of the most productive period of one's life. But, if you will neglect a cold, breathe bad air and use patient medicines and follow the advice of the non-medical colored people (because the colored people of all the races on the earth are the most ready and the most useful in the fighting advice. HOW TO TREAT ALL DISEASES CONDITIONS OF DISEASE had, hence, they are directly responsible for the death of not only other people, but for the death of their own children and relatives, because of their ignorant, and foolish advice), will you tell what you get and take without having any idea of what your trouble is, who have a remedy for every cough and every human complaint, who will insist that you get it and use it, you will wait until your disease is too far advanced? If any medical assistance. And, then, they will desert you, and want to throw you out in the street, and run from and claim that they cannot be exempt from your disease—the they will insist that you be hospital or poor house—thus forgetting that they are largely responsible for your condition, because through their ignorance and ally advice they prevented you (due, of course, to your weakness), from seeking early medical advice and examination.
