CHENEY § CO., Toledo, ma by an nmnm-."lm HEALTH BULLETIN 1 1SSUED TODAY Advises Proper Care of Clothing to Stop Spread of Disease ‘ The monthly report of the board of ‘healti®issued in the regular bulletin today, devotes some space to an examination of so called “missed cases.” These cases, the report states are: p ,“Mild cases and non-typical cases of disease which pass unrecognized because the ordinary symptoms of the diseases do not exist. All diseases vary greatly in severity. We have cases of typhoid so mild that they are walking about. Measles, scarlet fever ‘and influenza may be so mild that they escape notice, and even the pa- tient himself may not know that he is sick. These thild cases go to school, ride iIn street cars, attend theaters, continue at their usual work in crowd- ed factories and other places, handle our food, and thus spread infection. It is now well known that missed cases are a prolific source of spread- ing the infection In many of the com- municable diseases. It is considered to be probable that 90 per cent. of all infections are taken into the hody through the mouth. The importance of non-living things as agents for the transfer of the disease organistis is assuming less and less importance all the time. Thus we no longer consider objects such as books, umbrellas, floors, walls, curtains and furniture as likely to transmit disease germs. As a matter of fact wa know that ex- posure to air of such objects, and dryjng, means death to the vast ma- -jority pf organisms in a very short time. We now concentrate our efforts more upon handkerchiefs, towels, bed linen, clothing, drinking utensils and other objects that have recently been exposed to the mouth secretions of in- fected individuals,” the report con- cludes.

Investigating Back Yards- As the sanitary report indicates tho inspectors have devoted most of thelr time during. March to investi- sating sanitary conditions of yards. Over three hundred orders have been issued to owners to clean up their yards. Owing to the frozen condition of some of the rubbish piles it has not been possible for some of the owners to comply with the orders. Nevertheléss many places have been cleared of the winter’s accumulation of waste material. The depa ent has started the work early thfs year in order to stim- ulate owners to clean up before the warm weather comes. Randlords and tenants ought to start removing all rubbish that has collected in their cellars and yards and see to it that an order is placed with some truck- man for its early removal. Remem- ber that one month from now it will be difficult to hire a truckman because of the rush of work. Do not wait until the warm weather is here. ‘While it is true that accumulations of ‘rubbish may constitute a menace to health, we are not urging everyone td clean their cellars and yards for this reason only. Our chief reason is that you will enjoy your home so much more if you have a clean yard and a clean cellar to pass through. Clean surroundings enhances the val- ue of your property, makes a better place to live in, and a better place to do business in. Cleanliness stimulates thrift. Everyone can be clean if they wish to be. Getting used to dirty surroundings is no credit to one's moral sense.

The delegates represented every part of the United States and at the dinner itself, the recelpt of more than $2,600,000 was announced. This, with the $1,000,000 ‘already pledged by Hon. Julius Rosenwald marks a very excellent beginning toward the $10,000,000 relief fund. Among the largest contributions already announced are the following: Julius Rosenwald $1,000,000; Jacob VALUABLE FURS ALWAYS NEED INTELLIGENT CARE!
