Show ENLIST AID OF CHURCHES Powerful Weapon Brought to Bear in the Fight Against Tuberculosis. Tuber-culosis. Just how serious a problem tuberculosis tubercu-losis is to the average church, and la just what ways pastors are called upon up-on to minister to those suffering from this disease, is the subject of an investigation in-vestigation which the national association asso-ciation for the study and prevention of tuberculosis is conducting in connection con-nection with its plans for tuberculosis tuberculo-sis day on April 30. Statistics are being gathered from thousands of ministers regarding this subject, and among other figures the number of deaths last year from tuberculosis in the church congregation will be given. It is planned to place these statistics together with other educational mar terial, in the hands of every minister in the country for his use in connection connec-tion with Tuberculosis day. Millions of circulars and pamphlets on the prevention pre-vention of tuberculosis will also be issued, both from the national office and from the headquarters of the 450 anti-tuberculosis associations who will co-operate in the movement. |
