THE COUNTY BOARD MEETS NEXT THURSDAY

Most Important Subject To Be Discussed Is the Sanitorium at Palmyra.

OTHER IMPORTANT MATTERS

Members of the county board have received a call for a board meeting to be held in Jefferson Thursday of next week, convening at 1:00 o'clock.

By far the most important subjects to be discussed will be the establishment of a tuberculosis sanitorium near Palmyra, for which Waukesha county has made substantial appropriations.

The Walworth county board will hold a meeting Wednesday of next week, and there is no doubt but that they will follow the lead of Waukesha county.

The special committee to whom the matter was referred from the Jefferson county board, of which J. F. Prentiss of this city is chairman, will meet at 10:00 o'clock in the forenoon to formulate a report for presentation at the meeting of the entire body in the afternoon.

Officers of the State Anti-Tuberculosis society who have been taking an active interest in the establishment of the sanitorium, will attend the meeting, after having attended the Walworth county board meeting the day previous.

Much other business will be presented to the meeting. While members hope to complete their labors in one day; there will be no surprise if a two-day session is held
