CONSUMPTION GERMS
MEANS SUGGESTED FOR PRE-
VENTING SPREAD OF DISEASE.
Lecture by DR.. W. G. Woodward, Dis
trict Health Oficer-One
Of Series.

The health department and the Associated
Charities have provided for a series of lee
lures. the first Of which was given last
night at the Zion Baptist Church, street
between Sd and ~ streets southwest, by
DR.. William c. Woodward, the District
health officer, on the Prevention of Con-
sumption" Mr.. Charles F. Weller, general
secretary OF the Associated Charities, fol-
lowed DR.. Woodward with remarks along
the same lines, with illustrated stereopticon
views. Admittance to the lecture last night
was free. and there will be no charge to
any of those which will follow.
IF the people here tonight had 600 or
700 dead before them" DR.. Woodward said,
they would be Mortified and shocked You
can imagine the youngest and oldest, the
poor and wealthy, all dead from one cause.
Every year that number die OF consumption
in the District of Columbia, and there are
probably one hundred times that many who
are suffering from 1t.
THE germs of consumption are abundant
and are found all over the civilized world,
principally in crowded dwellings. They can
exist In all animals-as cows and sheep
and chickens are also subject to consump-
ton, and we can contract the disease from
them, but the germs have no power, and
cannot get into the atmosphere as long as
they remain in the liquid. 1 might say that
It is not necessarily dangerous to associate
with a consumptive If he does not talk too
forcbly in front Of your face and he Is not
dangerous as long as he takes care of the
material which carries the disease with 1t,
but he Is dangerous when expectorating,
and II he Is careless he will scatter disease
and death wherever he goes.
Due to Growth of a Germ.
Consumption is due to the growth Of
germ. The disease is communicated from
one person to another, or from lower ami
mails to human beings, through such germ.
Two conditions are absolutely necessary be-
fore a person can develop the disease-the
germs Of consumption must find their way
into the body, and the tissues of the body
must be in such condition as will permit
these germs to grow. The greatest danger
lies in the air we breathe, and many cases,
no doubt, occur from eating the flesh of
animals or the milk Of animals suffering
from the disease, either uncooked or not
properly cooked.
1.-THE greatest source Of danger from a
consumptive is the matter which he splits
up. The material is not very dangerous
when 1t is wet but as soon as 1t dries 1t
finds Its way into the air, and, sooner or
later, the germs may find their way into
the system of some other person through
the breath or through food or drink
In concluding, DR.. Woodward said it was
a good thing to have plenty Of light and
exist under such conditions He said that
the expectorated matter should be burned
instead Of being scattered broadcast.
The lecture was in charge of a committee,
composed Of Rev. j. E. Wiseman, w. H.
Hunter and w. s. Duffield.
