WHERE SANITATION HAS TRIUMPHED

CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS, noted writer and Btudent of public affairs, who has just returned from a visit to the Isthmus of Panama, is most enthusiastic over the way in which the government forces, under Colonel Oorgas, have improved health conditions In the canal zone. "Nothing the canal can produce,” says Mr. Adams, “is so significant, so infinitely important to the human race, as the scientific demonstration that life in the tropics can be made healthful and pleasant. In the sanitation of the Isthmian canal the United States has given an object lesson to the world of such overwhelming importance that one Is lost in contemplation of it.”
