BEDFORD THREE !E FE PLAGUE .1 I ABOUT SALE OF 5tarvin BABY V" MINE ?&P.ctiirs, - AT THE RIALTO THEATER TODAY I The Northwestern Tuberculosis con ference will be held In Portland, Oc tober 15 and 1G, and Mayor C. E. Gatea has appointed Mrs. Stewart Patterson of Medford as a delegate from Jackson county to this confer ence. Some idea of the importance of this worlt during the presont war may be gleaned from the following extract from a letter written by Mrs. Sadie Orr Dunbar of Portland, secretary of the Oregon association to Mrs. W. L. Holloway of Medford, who is one of th,e directors of the Tuberculosis Pre vention association ot tile. Northwest, .yid who has been very active in pre vention work in Jackson county: Oregon faces an appalling situation if war returns our soldiers, ill of tuberculosis. There are no beds, available for such patients. We will have to take them right back into their own homes, or into ours. We will have to have government aid, if many soldiers return with this dread disease. Tuberculosis will Increase at home during war, as well. The law, passed last January, per mits county commissioners to spend public money for county visiting njurses. Would Jackson county be In terested in securing at least one nurse whose work could be combined with school inspection, etc. Your summary card of the survey reads as follows: Case records (completo histories) 32 Cases reported by physicians, but not visited "by investigator 16 Arrested cases 27 Away for treatment 20 Deaths (1913-1916)..... 80 A 175 U This is only one disease. Your nurse could do any public health ' ork. No money would bo spent more wisely. A nurse would probab ly cost $90 or $100 per month, with somo allowance for traveling ex penses. Your county could well af ford to put $1500 into tho prevention of disease. Everyone who can is asked to at tend tho conference which will be hold at the Multnomah hotel. Rep resentatives from 50 Oregon cities will bo present, as the work is deemed of tho utmost importance. Mrs. Hol loway will attend as a representative ot the national organization, and other Medford and Jackson county women are asked to bo present. "Yours wns duly received in re gard to the bass drum," rends a let ter from Captain A. J. Vance of the Seventh company, received by Mayor C. E.

Every soldier gets lonely and homesick sometimes. The hefirt t hut heats beneath bronze buttons and khaki is still only human, of course. And when one of our hoys gets that lump in his throat which he just can't swallow, there seems to be nothing that helps quite so much as a good, cool, soothing smoke the kind of smoke he used to havo back home. Good smokes have been pretty scarce in the trenches. Hut we've made it so easy for the folks at home to send on the right kind the boys want that now there's really no ex cuse any more for them to be with out them. Twenty-five cents sent to our To bacco fund will purchase almost twice ns many smokes ns you cun buy yourself over the counter. They come packed in n nice little kit, ready for sending; and in that kit is a post card; stamped and addressed to the person who gave the quarter. The French and 'American govern ments and the Red Cross help ns do this. The tobacco is admitted duty free over there and the American stamp brings back the message to you, direct from the happy man who received your smokes. And when you read that soldier's message, you W'ill say that it is the biggest quarter's worfh of satisfac tion you ever got for the money. Try it and see for yourself. AN ATLANTIC I'OliT, Out. 12.
