The results he obtained in treating others were so striking that a move ment ior the construction of sana toria soon swept the country and today hundreds of modern institu tions stand as monuments to his work. The young physician was Dr. Ed ward Livingston Trudeau. When he was told In 1872 that he had tuber culosis, the disease was considered Incurable and was called "consump tion." People who had it were said to be "going into a decline." Believing that he would die. Dr. Trudeau decided to spend his last days In the Ad( : Mountains, which he loved. He observed, how ever, that the more he rested the better he felt, and following this clue he built up his health so suc cessfully that he lived to be 67 years of age. Ujon his wcovcry he built the little cottr-e tor the treatment of others, enforcing a regimen of rest, fresh air and good food. Eventually the attention of the medical field be came focussed upon him, and the growth of the sanatorium move ment began. Today Trudeau's sys tem of treatment is still used, be cause It is the only method known which will cure the disease. From that little one-room cottage, with only two beds, the sanatorium move ment has spread until today there are In the United States 659 sana toria with a total of 86,917 beds. Trudeau, "father of the sanato rium movement' died in 1915, the recipient of the highest honors of many medical, scientific and educa tional Institutions.

Fred M. Weatherford. pastor evan ! geliat. spoke at the Church of the j Nazarene Sunday morning, using as hla topic: "The Bible and Its Mes- , sage." Following are excerpts from j his discourse: 1 "It Is fundamentally basic that we assure ourselves that the Bible Is the Word of God. a divinely given Book. It la upon tnls fact that the Inquir ing mind rests. When the fact is established that It Is of divine origin, ! we are at once ready to receive Us message. "For centuries past, missiles have been hurled at the Bible, challenging it as the Word of God. It has with stood the combined onslaught of Its conspirators, coming through without a proven count a gat list It. "The Word of God Is unlike the fluctuations of human experience and learning. There is not an institution of learning today, of recognized standing that employs the same text books, in natural science for Instance, that were used twenty-five years ago, so changeable and vacillating have been the keenest human brains. But the Bible, because It has come down from Him 'In whom there Is no vari ableness, neither shadow of turning,' Is aa adequate and adaptable for the race today as it was when given by God centuries ago. "The thing that makes the Bible a deathless book, and unlike other vol umes that live and die, is becauso it is God-breathed and heaven-born. The Btble bears two thousand six hundred passages in the old Testa ment and five hundred twenty-six citations in the New, each of which presents to us the claim that the Bible 1 the Word of God.

OLD CYPRESS FOREST FOUND BY SCIENTIST WASHINGTON. (UP) Remains of an ice-age cypress forest have been unearthed near Annapolis, Md., by Dr. Charles T. Berry, Johns Hopkins university paleontologist. Seeds believed to indicate the type of vegetation, which covered this sec' tlon of the country from 25.000 to 100.000 years ago. also were dlscov ered by Dr. Berry. Waves cutting Into the face of Greenbury Point were responsible for Dr. Berry's discovery. The forest Is directly across the Seven river from Annapolis. The swamp consisted chiefly of bald cypress trees, believed to have flourished In Pleistocene days. It ap parently filled a deep valley through which ran two ancient streams from one to three feet deep and several feet wide. At the extreme end of the point and exposed only to low tide, are ap proximately 25 cypress stomps from two to six or more feet ln diameter At the cliff's bass Is a five-foot bed of clay, in the lower portion of which roots and knees of stumps are si interwoven they sometimes form i solid wooden floor.
