T ub erculosis Association Prepares to Launch Annual Drive.

By, JOE COLLIER OU licked your Christmas seals last year, so— Last summer, Indianapolis gained 640 pounds where it needed it most. It was split up among 80 frail children who gained eight

pounds each. They spent vir=tually the entire summer at the Julia Jameson Nutrition Camp at Bridgeport, and the main end of all their activities there was to gain those pounds. This was important to Indianapolis, because these children had been so ¢frail they might have been the easy prey of disease, possibly tuberculosis. Tubercu= losis would have enormously re=tarded the development and usefulness of these children. It might even have caused their deaths. Every person’ who eventually dies of tuberculosis infects nine others during the illness. This winter, hundreds of Ine dianapolis school children will be given tests to see whether they are inclined toward tuberculosis. Already 15,000 school pupils have been given this test. It acts to them, their families” and tneir doctors as a red light if the result is positive. It does not mean that the pupil has tuberculosis, but it does mean that a further examination is desirable. Already, 4200 pupils whose tests showed a positive reaction have had their chests x-rayed as a check on whether they had the disease or not, and if so, to what degree. Pupils who have active tuberculosis -are prescribed for, and by following the prescription, most often are cured. All active. cases, of course, are isolated for the protection of the student body as a whole. :

0, it can be truthfully said that tuberculin tests now being made in the Indianapolis schools affect. the health: of every single pupil. More, it has indirectly affected the life of every single individual in Indianapolis. The money for all this comes from the Marion County Tuberculosis Association. And the entire income of the Marion County Tuberculosis Association comes from the sale of Christmas seals here, In a few days, the 1940 Christmas seal will go on sale. An allotment of them will be mailed to you. Tens of thousands of stamps will be mailed to persons in Mar-

Differs With Talents

The work of an able painter, composer, paet, scientist, inventor or philosopher, | he explained, benefits all states just as much as the state where he resides. Such men will be the best jhdges of where they should go. “The benefits from the work of gan able engineer, manufacturer, banker, merchant, craftsman or farmer are more localized,” he said. “They do ultimately and indirectly spread to all mankind, but their first and direct action is upon the communities| where they operate. “It is shameful for a state to stone its prophets in art and literature; it is both shameful and silly to stone its prophets in business and industry.” - Dr. Thorndike [traced the migrations of men of ability by studying men listed in Who's Who, American Men of Science, and Leaders in Education, noting where each was born and where he is now residing.

Best Widely Separated

Then he gave to each state a score in general goodness—what he calls a “G| score,” which is a weighted average of 37 features of welfare. The three states highest in Dr. Thoindike’s “G” score are California, Connecticut and Washington. Dr. Thorndike explodes the popular idea that agricultural or rural communities| produce the great majority of able men who are then “fed into the maw of industry, or sucked into the yortex of some metropolis, or sacrificed on the altar of ‘capitalistic production.”

Here Are Four

To Make Your Marriage Fail

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal. (U. P.).— Four rules have_ been formulated by the San Francisco Family Relations Center that are virtually guaranteed to lead up to an unhappy marriage, a broken home, divorce or general marital collapse. They are as follows: 1—Marry young, preferably under the age of 21. 2—Have a Jot of beautiful romantic illusions. 3—Let the wife support her husband while he goes on to college and studies law, medicine or some other profession. 4—Don’t hother learning any-

cause of the advance, the campaigns these days are conducted "with a maximum of cheer. The fact is that the drive against tuberculosis probably has been the most successful, certainly the farthest-flung, public health enterprise. Even today, the sale of Christmas seals is being carried on in several war-torn European countries, notably England and Finland. Proceeds will be used to fight tuberculosis. Even in spite of the strides now being made, and even in spite of all the work done last year, more than 260 persons in Marion County died of the disease last year. More than 1000 were infected with it during the year. And year in, year out, tuberculosis still is the greatest killer of youth. Tuberculosis is a stubborn fighter and is covering its retreat with these horrible losses. It still is a major public health

thing about the basis of marriage until yours has started to crack.

The four rules are part of a report on the center's activities and experience prepared by Dr. Noel Keyes of the University of California, and Dr. J. V. Berreman of Stanford University. Both are experts in family relations.

They have ascertained the chances for unhappiness in marriage are infinitely greater when the young people wed at 21 than when they marry at 25. Marriages under 25, under present social and economic conditions, they regard as ‘hazardous.” The ideal age, claims Dr. Keyes, is 23 for the woman and 28 for the man. According to the most recent census figures available, the report finds 20 per cent of all marriages are made when the woman is under 20. The ideal age for child-bearing is placed at between 25 and 34. Dr. Berreman assails the current custom of wives supporting husbands who are finishing a professional training in college. At the end of such training, Dr. Berreman has found, the husband often finds he has “outgrown” his wife. He also decries romantic illusions. one of the chief factors in the early failure of marriages,” he declared. Both urge that courses in marriage be included in all high school programs.

problem, more insidious than most because, without tests, a person may have the disease actively and have no suspicion he has. Tuberculosis has made heavy inroads on the body of an individual before symptoms are noticeable. On the other hand, if it is discovered by the test and x-ray method, in the early stage it is easily cured. ” ” ” HE skin test will be given no one without written permission of their parents. It has been given in most of the schools. At the same time, the Asso-

‘ciation has gonducted a program

of education in schools, homes, and industry, and it has sponsored the fresh air schools for susceptible children. It has supplied educational material on the subject of the ways of healthful living to school teachers, and has reached the general public in the campaign by motion pictures, literature. Posters, and through the press and radio. All these things happened because you have, in years past, used and paid for the Christmas seals. They couldn’t happen next year unless you use and pay for your Christmas seals this year. Besides, the appearance of seals on correspondence has become an almost worldwide identification of the Christmas season.

NEW YORK, Nov. 15 (U. P).— A kiss betrayed Murray Fershing whose bullet-riddled body is in'a police morgue. The kiss was a signal to three detectives. Fershing stole a $150 diamond ring from Dorothy Mori, 34, part owner of a candy shop, who had had dates with him. Last night Fershing telephoned Miss Mori, winner of a 1927 St. Louis beauty contest, to meet him at a tavern. Miss Mori and the detectives arrived before Fershing. When he arrived he went directly to Miss Mori. She kissed him and the detectives knew their man. Fershing pulled his own gun and fired five times, one bullet striking a waiter in, the leg, the

TRAP OF DEATH

JUAREZ, Chihuahua, Mex., Nov. 15 (U.: P.).—Mexican bullfight fans have a new heroine, a pretty young American girl of 18. Blue-eyed Conchita Cintron, born of American parents but who has spent most of her life in Lima, Peru, is the latest sensation of the bull ring circuit of Mexico. When she appeared in the bull ring of this northern - border town throngs greeted her.

The 110-pound ‘bonita Peruviana” is a strange looking figure in the arena as she pits her skill against a 1200-pound bull. Her very appearance before the fight never fails to bring the crowd to its feet cheering her. Conchita has combined two types of bullfighting—the Spanish and Portuguese. She can ride a horse in the ring with the skill of a Portuguese and place the long, barbed darts—banderillas—behind the bull’s shoulders with equal facility, Or, she can perform equally as well on the ground and make the Kill in the style of the Spanish bullfighter, or matador. Miss Cintron, who said she could not kill a fly if she had to, learned to kill bulls in Lima, where her

father, Frank Cintron, a graduate of West Point Military Academy, is in business. Ruy da Camara, Portuguese consul ih the Peruvian capital, taught her the principles of fighting bulls. Da Camara had been a noted bullfighter in Portugal. When she was 13, Miss Cintron appeared in the Lima ring as an amateur. The next year, she made her professional debut in Lisbon. And, in 1938, she fought her first bull in Peru, on foot. Jesus (Chucho) Solorzano, top ranking Mexican fighter, saw her in Lima and brought her to Mexico ity. She captured spectators and since has gained popularity throughout the country. Conchita spends hours training, She accepts no social engagements. Her mother always accompanies her on her tours, 8 “Some day,” she said. “I shall not be able to fight bulls. Then I will have time for beaus. “It doesn’t take great strength to kill a bull,” she said. “You must be cool and sure. If the sword strikes the proper spot, it penetrates easily. If it doesn’t, you've failed, and failure may mean injury or death.”
