Ill mmm Sanatorium Letter ' "A sanatorium for tuberculosis pa tients is a healthier place to be in than a railroad station," said Dr Lawrasor Brown of Trudeau Sana torium, Saranac Lake, N. Y., in a statement regarding a study made by him to determine the extent to which danger of infection is present in a sanatorium where the disease is treated. The investigations revealed that there are millions more tuberculosis germs in a railroad station or similar loitering places where idlers congre gate for hours than in a well regu lated institution. The patients in a sanatorium are trained by their phy sicians to protect others against in fection and never expectorate sare lessly. , Persons who work in tuber culosis hospitals and sanatoria are in les? danger from germs than the av erage citizen who is not protected against the spitting menace. According to Dr. Brown the care less spitter is one of the greatest dan gers to public health. Small children are especially open to infection when they play oathe streets (gutters), for the germs cling to toys, food and fin gers from which they are carried into the system. . HALF CENTURY SINCE THE FIRST TELEPHONE ,The first telephone - message was sent in 1876, 50 years ago. So great has been the growth of the system that now in 1926, 67,700,000 telephone conversations take place each day. The two tlephones of 1876 have in creased to 16,000,000 instruments to day. The first telephone line of 30 feet has grown to a network of more than 40 million miles of wire; ana switchboards, buildings, pole lines, cables, conduits, and other forms of plant have been constructed, costing over $2,500,000,000. ' As President W. S. Gifford, of the American Telephone and Telegraph company recently said, "The ad vances which have been made during trfe first 50 years of the work of the Bell System are unparallelel in .the history of communication. They are contributions which will make for ever tnemorable this great epoch in our progress. We are now at the be ginning of a new era filled with boundless opportunities for advance ment in the business and science of telephony. Upon the foundations that have been so securely laid, we can look forward to the telephone system of the fututre, which in effect iveness and useful service, will sur pass all that has gone before."
