A meeting has been called for Sunday, March 2, 7 P. M., to which the whole colony has been invited.
The purpose of this gathering is to instruct the citizens on ways of guarding themselves against tuberculosis, a disease which has caused havoc in Chicago.
Mr. Rafael Aveleyra, Chicago Mexican Consul, will talk on the urgent need of the public for greater health protection and valuation.

O'Neill, a gentleman highly esteemed for his cultural activities; Rev. Lacy Simms, a religious leader who has gained much prestige among the members of the colony; Rev. J. Fernandez, a person very much loved by our colony for his cooperative efforts, and many others. Mr. Sam Fraga, president of Mexico, and Mr. Betancourt, editor of La Raza have also willingly offered to cooperate with Dr. Goldberg.
