Children Live Amid Danger. The memorial committee points out | that children of leprous parents are born clean, but that the children’s home in the colony is too small to accommodate another child and that hundreds of children seem destined to live in the leper colony and finally become victims. The committee plans to devote $100,000 of the amount raised to erect a new and more ade- quate building for children. The Culion colony actually is an ex- perimental station for the hundreds of leper camps and colonies in other lands. Dr. H. Windsor Wade is the American leprologist at Culion. He and & group of physicians trained in the Phlupplnes ve been there for 12 years. The trustees of ‘the Leonard Wood Memorial are: Gen. James G. Har- bord, chnirmnn Gen. Samuel McRob- erts, Robert L.
