FELLOW PHILADELPHIA!
.FOR 10 YEARS we have been expending monc, contributed by Mr.
Henry Phipps, in your interest and in the interest of all who arc
afflicted with tuberculosis. We have had the best available advice
and have used such abilities and strength as we have to the fullest.
IN RECENT WEEKS we have tried to give you an accounting. We
have appealed to you to enable this work to be continued. Your
response has not yet been sufficient. You may wish to know
something at this time of our plans.
We hpvc, in ihc phsl, confined our relief efforts to one district of the city. We hnve
formerly proposed, and now propose again, that all tuberculosis dispensary
work in this city be apportioned by districts. We intend to advocate this plan;
which will involve increased facilities in certain districts, and we hope to have
the help of the official health departments, state and city, and the privately
organized health agencies in planning the details of a, workable system and
carrying it into effect.
Tuberculosis among the negroes is an especially important and difficult problem.
We believe it -necessary to help them to help themselves. Wo have tried it.
It works. We know approximately what it would cost to care for the colored
population of this city on this basis. We propose to help to see that the work
is done.
In closest co-operation with the Department of Hygiene and Public Health and
the Department of Industrial Medicine at the Unhersity we have, in the past,
studied the industrial aspects of the tuberculosis problem. War experience has
increased our ability to deal with this problem. Our staff recruited and led a
board of experts in the diagnosis of tuberculosis and other diseases of the
chest who examined thousands of newly inducted soldiers at Camp Dix.
Casual observation has taught us that the methods of group examination on
a large scale, as used by the survey boards in the National Army, need to bo
applied at once to health reviews of the policemen and firemen, the .street rail
way workers, the employes in the various industries.
With this in view we propose to establish a consulting service of experts in the
diagnosis of early tuberculosis, available to the industries, either employers or
employed, as soon as our resources in men and money permit.
In conjunction with the Stale Department of Health we have the nucleus of a
real "health center" at Seventh and Lombard Streets. This- we propose to help
to maintain and to develop to the fullest possible extent.
In conjunction with the EaglcvilN; Sanatorium for Consumptives, we propose to
help to maintain a hospital in which selected cases can be studied by especially
trained scientific men to the best advantage. We propose to employ the men.
We have, in the past, offered post-graduafc courses frtr nurses, social workers and
doctors, covering the especial methods used in the management of tuberculo
sis. Before the war our courses were well attended and widely recognized as
good. Abandoned during the war, we propose to revive them at the earliest
opportunity.
We have, in the past, conducted a small factory where tuberculosis patients were
enabled to work part time. The results from the patients' point of view were
admirable. Pauperization was avoided self-respect preserved. This factory
tailed as a business venture, largely because the business men of the cfty
failed to understand the project and co-operate with it. We hope to aid in
a revival of this factory under more favorable auspices in the near future.
We propose to maintain, as we have in the past, a laboratory .fully equipped to
sfudy the most fundamental problems of tuberculosis and other respiratory
diseases; as good a laboratory as any, anywhere. '
is in this laboratory, of course, that we hope to fulfill our mission the discov
ery of a cure, or a method of prevention, for tuberculosis. The other aspects
of our work, valuable as they arc to those they relieve, arc merely pallia
tives. Our effort to do these things, or to get them done, will not interfere or conflict
with anything that any one else wants to do and can do. Our purpose has been
to do what others do not care to do, or cannot- do-
We cannot do all of these things with tho $100,000 we have asked. We can con
tinue and improve upon our beginnings of them until December 31, 1021,
with this sum.
Onlu $26,000 of the $Ift0,000 asked has been subscribed. .'?7'i,000 more "is needed
imperatively. Will you aid?

Last of the Five
CLOVER DAYS To-morrow
Hundreds of Lots of Desirable Merchandise at
Considerably Less Than Our Fair Regular Prices
TO-MORROW, Friday, will be the last in the wonderful series of five Clover Days. Ap
proximately a THOUSAND DIFFERENT LOTS will be shown under the famous
Four-leaf Clover Signs, every one at a substantial reduction from thp regular price.
In some cases the concession comes from the manufacturers; in many others the rcduc
tions'are from our own moderate prices. This means a considerable sacrifice of the fnir,
legitimate profit necessary in the usual conduct of retail business. But Clover Day is an
established institution, and wc willingly maintain its prestige by presenting a great array
of EXCEPTIONAL VALUES not only for one or two days as in the past, but for FIVE
DAYS. And TO-MORROW, the last of these, should be the greatest. The variety and
values are as attractive as on the. first days.
PLEASE CARRY SMALL PARCELS WHEN YOU CAN CONVENIENTLY DO SO.
WE CANNOT PROMISE TO FILL TELEPHONE ORDERS FOR CLOVER SPECIALS.
