Sunday, April 80, AU Ministers to Preach oa the Subject. Ministers all over Kansas wfll be asked to base their sermons upon the subiect of Tuberculosis Sunday April 30. The executive committee of the Kansas Association for the studr and oreventlon of tuberculosis met yesterday and reached this de cision. ... The members of ; the executive committee are Dr. C. H. Lerrlgo of Topeka, chairman; Dr. J. L. Eber hardv. Leavenworth : B. T. Fair- child, State Superintendent; Mrs. B. B. Smvthe. of Toneka. and W. L. A. Johnson, State Labor Commlssion- r. ' The committee will ask every min ister to nreach about the Great White Plague. It will also arrange for the dlatrlbutlon of nrlzes among the school children of the cities of the first class who write essays on tnber- milmia. The committee raised prhe fund of S120 yesterday. There are twelve cities of the first class In Kansas and there will be ten dol lar tor the children of each city The plan Is to have the children write their essays after listening to the sermons on tuberculosis. The school child In a city of the. first class writing the best essay "tll be given a prize of $5, the one writing the second best will receive $3 and the one writing the third best wtll receive 12. Probably the chief idea In this Is to aet the school children to hear to discussion of tbe subject and to think 'about It by writing about It In fact the whole movement start ed hv the committee has for Its pur- nnas the education of tbe people or the state to the fact that tuberculo ma mar be nrevented and that In its earlier stages It Is eurable. The state board of health has been re- anonalble for a sreat campaign that has been waged along this line tor the last four years. It has had good results, but those Interested do not believe that the people of the state are yet fully awake to the possibili ties of protecting themselves from tbe nation's worst affliction.
