This Also Applies to Baltimore County
With Much Force.-Dr. Bosley. Health Com
missioner of Baltimore city, will enforce the
non exposure of bodies of those persons who
have died of diphtheria or scarlet fever, and it
would be well for the people of this county to
heed his warning He says:
II hope the citizens of Baltimore will con-
slider this law in its humane aspect. l do not
care to thrust trouble on or add sorrow to
those afflicted by the loss of loved one. l
would rather try to tighten the burden they al
ready have to bear. As physician, as Health
Commissioner, however, have seen that pub.
lie opening of collins has served to spread diph-
liberia and scarlet fever where either of such
diseases has caused the death. But recently
such case came under my notice, and have
felt obliged to direct the health wardens to
keep close watch on funerals in their respec-
tive wards. The relatives of the dead one
should. for the sake of the living, prevent the
public funeral in such cases, and the relatives
of the living friends should restrain their at
tendance at such funerals in the interest of the
preservation of their own health. l cannot
too strongly urge these considerations upon the
people of this community, for l know of the
attending dangers of the violation of the law"
