Dr. Townshend, the health officer, reported to the Diszict Commissioners thismorning ag follows: “Tn accondahce with your request I proceaded yesterday to make personal inspection of the Peabody and Force school bulldings—the for- Mer located at Steaton square east and the lat- teron Massachusetts avenue northwest—the object. heaped to ascertain whether or not Injary to health of puptls tn attendance at these butld- ings might resuit from location of the water closets and urinals in basements. Both these buildings are new, the yenttlation well accom- plished and all proper sanitary appliances in Use, The closets are of the kind known as ‘flush DKS, which in the light of present knowledge are considered ‘by far the most suitable for schools. The Water supply seems to be ample, ventil- ators which work well in conducting off vitia- ted alr are found in each of the closet rooms, and I am thoroughly convinced therefore, that with proper care there is no reason why they should not be kept entirely free trom offense and all dargerof a contamination of the at mosphere avoided. I have always been opposed to the locating of closets and urinals 1n school buildings, except when absolutely necessary for want of yara space. 23 1» affords epportu- pity for nuisances to result in case of ne siect onthe part of the janitor or other persons whese duty it may be to keep them in order, but if the flush farks are Musied t rice daily, scrubbed out weekly and distnfectants used oc- eastonally, not the slightest danger n be apprehended from locations of closeta in these two admirably constructed school butidings.” REPORT OF THE INSPECTOR OF HUILDINGS.
