DELIBERATE ON
PUBLIC HEALTH
Members of State Commission Discuss
Questions Relative to MIX and
Sanitation, and FIay Smoke
Nuisance

Three interesting addresses relating
to public health of Los Angeles We're
delivered by Drs. G. II. Kress, F. c. e.
Madison and L. M. Powers of the pub
lie health commission of the State Medi-
cal society at the Hotel Westminster
yesterday, beginning at the noon hour.
The brief lectures were illustrated by
stereopticon views which pictured the
effects produced on the general health
of the city by insanitary conditions.
In discussing the subject Pure Milk,
Garbage and Other Problems of Los
Angeles" Dr.. Kress said: "One of the
obstacles to the improvement of our
milk supply is the cost of marketing
pure milk is greater than that of put
ting a poor grade of milk on the
market People should be willing to
pay a fair price for milk but should
insist upon getting pure milk"
Speaking of the smoke problem, DR..
Kress said there is no necessity for
habitually smoking chimneys, and the
gas company could prevent 1t If they
so desired.
THE railroads, too, are sinners
against the smoke law" said DR.. Kress,
"and the switch engines emit the most
smoke. At the present time the public
health commission, working through
the health department, is trying to edu-
cate firemen in the proper way to fire
boilers"
DIR. Madison, in the course of his adj
dress on 1.-THE Citizens Relation to
Public Health Work" said;
'All the money that is expended by
the city to clean up insanitary districts
and to eradicate conditions that breed
disease is insurance, just as much as is
life or fire insurance"
DIR. Powers also briefly discussed the
garbage problem and spoke of the
necessity of keeping private property
free from accumulations of rubbish, in
order to protect the health of citizens.

Michael decided not to tell
Paudeen of kathleen's wish

down his guineas and said the
