. THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER great war. Let us see that we do greater things because of the still greater influenza. Thus, due to the war and the influenza, public health-shows itself as the great coming movement of the twentieth century. So it is that we are ripe for county public health associa- tions, right amongst the people’s themselves. We want .our public health as we want our government. the kind of govern- ment that is “of the people, for the people ana by the people,” the kind of government this country started one hundred and forty years ago. -That is why we want county public health associations where the people themselves in their own counties, knowing their own needs, will direct their own public health measures.
