TUBERCULOSIS CAUSES
TUBERCULOSIS
When •anyone is told by his doctor
that he hits tuberculosis, that person
and his friends naturally wander
where he got the disease. We should
all knew where tuberculosis comes
from because when we know the
source of a 'disease and its manner
of spread, we should be able to con,
trol that disease to a considerable
extent.
•
The cause of tuberculosis is a germ
known as the tubereule bacillus. Tub-
ereeulesis cannot occur unless this
germ is present. There are c:indi-
ticns such as overcrowding which
favour the spread of the ger,n from
the sick to the well. There are con-
ditions of the body, such as over-
work and 'fatigue, which give the
germ a better chance to cause dis-

None of the conditions which fav-
our the germ can in themselves
cause the disease, the germ is the
one and only cause. This leads us
then to eonsider where the germ
conies from and how it is spread.
The tuberculosis bacillus does not,
es far as eve know, live in nature
outside of the human or animal body,
This means that the germs come
frcnl human beings or animals suf-
fering from tuberculosis. The trans-
fer must be fairly direct because sun,
light and drying destroy the germs
f"irly quickly once they are outside
th ' body.
The important point to understand
is that tbuerculosis is sp)'ea41 by
these who have the disease, whether
they know they have the disease oh'
not. This means that tubercluosis
cause, tuberculosis.
Children suffer from a form o:l
tuberculosis which they contract
from the use of raw milk coming
from tuberculosis cows. This form
of the disease can be and is put an
end to just as soots as mill: is pas-
teurized because the process of pas-
teurization kills the tubercle bacil-
lus.
NTcst gees of human tuberculosis
get the disease from other tubercul-
osis humans. Tremendous numbers
of germs leave the body in the sput-
um ef those suffering• from active
tuberculosis. It is the transfer of
this sputum, laden with tete germs
of tuberculosis, which accounts for
the spread of the disease.
The, transfer may lie direct as in
kissing or by cougahs. sneezes .or loud
talking, It may bo indirect as in
the use of common eating and drink-
ing utensils. In ono way or another
the sputum of the case reaches the
month of a healthy person. The
more frequent and the more intimate
the 0xp08nre, the greater the chance
of spread and so the spread eommen-
ly occurs in the family.
The case who has learined to take
the necessary care to prevent the
spree/ of his sputum is not a dan-
ger to others. Tt is the ignorant m'
careless case that is responsible for
the spread of most of the disease.

THE LAST OF ALL .
Whether it's Heaven -r -or whether it's
•1Ie11;
Or whether it's merely sleep;
Or whether it's something in between
Where ghosts of the half-gwd's
creep;
Since it comes at onfe—and it comes
to all-•
On the one, fixed, certain date—
Why drink of the dregs till the Cup
arrives
On the gray day set by Pate?
The coward looks to the gray beyond
And his heart grows white with
fear;
The dark is deep that he may not see
As the end of the game draws near
But the valiant turns to another road
That leads to the outbound gates,
Where each drab soul of the realm
must fare
And the Great Adventure waits.
Ono by one till the line is passed ---
The gutter -born and the crown;
So what is a day or a year or two
Since the answer's written down?
What is a day to a million years
When the last winds sound the
call?
So here's to the days that rest be-
tween—
And here's to the last of all!
Willows in spring are a golden burn-
ing,
Oaks are rosy lacy mist,
Elms robed black with a russet
yearning,
All seeking green summer's tryst
But the needled lungs of the somber
fir -tree
Hardly alter, hardly facie:
For life has badge&• this tree as her
tree,
With a thin persisting accolade.
Spring is a, rainbow softly greening,
Summer a lush and emerald noon,
Autumn a fire, leaping and•leaning
Against blue slcy and low red noon
But the needled lungs of the somber
Sir -tree
Know the far-off hour they keep:
For death has crowned this tree as
her tree,
And death is a long quiet sleep.

Before my light gees out forever if

I would not reek of length of days,
nor crave for things to be;
But cry: "One day of the great lost
days, one face of all the faces,
Grant me to see and touch once more
and nothing more to see.
"For, Lord, I was free of all Thy
flowers, but I chose the world's

And that is why my feet are torn and
111ii1e eyes are blind with sweat,
But at Thy terrible iudgment-eeat
when this my tired life closes,
I am heady to reap whereof I sewed
and pay my righteous debt.
"Bet once before the sand is run and
the silver thread is broken,
Give me a grace and cast aside the
veil of dolorous yam's,
Grant me one hour ef all mine hours
and let me see for a token
Her pure and pitiful eyes shine out
and bathe her feet with tears."
Her pitiful hande should calm ani
her hair stream down and blind me
Out of the sight of night and out of
the reach of fear.
And her eyes should .be my iight
whilst the sun went ,out behind 1110,
And the viols in her voice be the last
sound in mine ear.

"BESIDE HURON'S DEEP"
Poem Dedicated to Bayfield by
Winnifred Brown Aherns.
Beside Huron's Deep where the Sun
goes to sleep
There's a village tucked back in the
Hills
And it brings back Sweet memories of
days long ago
As I picture it's River and Rill's.
There's an old fashioned bridge hid-
den back in the trees
Where the robins repose in the cool
summer breeze
There's starlight to guide you when
the sun goes to sleep
The place is called Bayfield, beside
Huron's deep.
There's an old lazy River where the
fish shanty's stand
And an old fashioned pier where the
fishermen land
There's fishing galore and the fish
never sleep
The place is called Bayfield, beside
Huron's deep.
There's beautiful meadows,, there's
violets and bees
And quaint little streets lined with
tall staple trees,
Where the Hollyhocks beckon to the
wild rose so sweet
The place is called Bayfield, beside
Iluron's deep.
In it setting of silver, purple and
gold the sun goes to sleep
in a bed of pure gold.
Then the moon says hello, as it's
pale shadows creep
The place is called Bayfield, beside
Huron's deep.
If you care to see nature as God put
it there.
That's the place you will find it,
there's none can compare.
Heney suckle and mess make a path
for your feet,
The place is called Bayfield, beside
Fluren's deep.
Tf it's beauty were painted with some
artist's name,
ere no longer would look for fortune
and fame.
He would find there that something
to make his picture complete
The place is called Bayfield, beside
Huron's :deep.
