Education and Health

The Board Of Public Education is not
entitled to any more consideration at
the hands OF the Board Of Health than
individuals who maintain nulsancss and
fail TO abate them when called upon to dc
so BY the properly constituted authori-
ties. The health officers have been
patient, but the persistency Of the Board
Of Public Education In ignoring the
Board OF Health has led the latter body
to adopt more drastic measures
Il is Of paramount Importance that the
health Of the II. 600 children attending
the public schools Of our city be carefully
guarded. The Board Of Public Education
should be Just as much interested In the
matter as the Board Of Health. Eduost-
ing the mind at the expense Of the
body is poor policy. Competent
physicians, constituting the Board Of
Health, served notice upon the Board OF
Education more than two years ago that
nuisances existed In schools Nos, and
The reasonable and sensible demand
was made that the convenienoes be
drained Into the public sewers IL was
not acceded 20, aud the aid Of the courts
has been invoked. The parents Of all
school children viii watch the proceed-
ings with interest and hops for a de-
clsion IN favor Of the Board Of Health.
