WILMETTE LIFE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1924 3 T. B. FOE OF YOUNG ADULTS Persona in Prime of Life Easiest Victims Tuberculosis is more fatal to young adults than to any other age group. Persons between 20 and 30 years bear the brunt of mortality from this disea se while those between 30 and 40 come next in this respect. These conclusions a~e draw.n .from an analysis of mortahty statistics found in the annual report of the state department of public health, which has recently been compiled . "Last year," says the report, "a total oi 4,900 people died in Illinois from pulmonary tuberculosis. Of this numher 1,366, or 28 percent were between 20 and 30 years of age, while 1,115, or 23 percent were between 30 and 40. In other words 2,481, a little more than half of all the deaths from pulmonary tuberculgsis, occurred among persons between 20 and 40 years of age, young adults and those in the very prime of life. The other 2,419 deathes from pulmonary tuberculosis last year were distributed among persons of all ages not included in the .,0 to 40 group, 35 fatalities occurring · the first and one in the ninety-first year of life, while the heaviest burden fell upon those closest in age to the group that was hit hardest. "Tuberculosis once headed the list of the 205 officially designated causes of death in Illinois." said Dr. Isaac D. Rawlings, state director of public health, in commentiQg on the report. "Last year this disease stood sixth from the top. It was surpassed by heart diseases, the pneumonias, cancer chronic nephritis and cerebral hem~ orrage in the order named, the heart diseases causing considerable more than twice the number of deaths attributed to pulmonary tuberculosis. "Time was wen tuberculosis, commonly called consumption, was looked upon as a deadly plague which was handed down from one generation to another, a bitter, miserable heritage. Now we know that this disease is preventable and it is curable when correct treatment is started early enough. The experience in Illinois has manifestly proven these facts.

Her Love Story," adapted for the screen from Mary Roberts Rinehart's novel "Her Majesty, the Queen," has mor~ love for a member of the King's guard t~ whom she was married by a gypsy kmg than for the king. The story deals with the daughter of a sort of derelict ruler of a one street kingdom who marries her to a king to restore his royal taste for riches. The man whom the girl loves is a member of the kings guard and they marry at a gypsy camp when the priest of the kingdom is afraid to marry them. The derelict ruler disregards the gypsy marriage and gives his daughter to the king. Things move rapidly to a desirable denoument that make "Her Love Story," which will be snown at the Hoyburn theatre four days commencing Monday, October 6, an entertaining story. For Friday and Saturday, the Hoyburn has billed "Open All Night," which is different from the usual run of moving pictures. There is a lot of fun and entertainment in this picture and a little bit of satire on the motion picture actors. There are two interesting love Storie~ included in this picture which has in its cast Viola Dana, }etta Gouda!, Adolphe Menjou and Maurice B. Flynn. ADELPHI "Her Love Story" will start the week at the Adelphi theatre, having a three days booking beginning Sunday, October 5. Gloria Swanson is starred as the Queen, who is not at all anxious to be the wife of the ruler of a small kingdom. She would rather have the captain of the guards who is more of a lover and a man. She gets him in the end, of course, but how she loses her royal husband makes an interesting story.

The expense ~ow.ever, has been magnanimously JUStified and a sum of many times that which has already been expended would have been justified. One person, pro~ucing an average of $1,000 per year, w1ll earn $30,000 between the age of 20 and SQ. the period of life when tuberculosis takes 70 percent of its victims. Estimated on this basis ~itho~Jt r~gard to the heavy costs of lmgerm!S' 1llnes~ and burial, the saving of 10 lives da1ly means a saving of more than $3,000,000 annually. "Tuberculosis is not inherited and there is no secret about the means of its prevention and cure. Caused by a germ, the prevention of tuberculosis depends upon preventing the spread of that germ from one person to another while the cure of the disease depends upon killing the germs before they. have damaged the body beyond repa1r. Clean habits, the eating of clean. uncontaminated food and the breathing of fresh, clean air are prime factors in preventing the spread of tuhercule baccili. Cure when it is possible hy reason of th~ early detection of the disease, depends upon rest, wholesome food and fresh air taken in such proportions as the condition of the victim demands. The best plan to follow in the cure of tuberculosi s is to place oneself under the care of a 'cian and follow his instructiont for a week or two-but permantly."
