which several members Of the family
-H-d -leorttrd'y suffered frca1 mild
attacks Of diphtheria and recovered
but were not recognized until some
other member Of the family had &C
uuired the disease In such a severe
form as to require the attention of q
physician. These mild. unrecognized
cases often give rise to extensive ep-
idemics. With these facts In mind
persons suffering with sore throat
should be most careful to ascertain
the cause Of It. Especially should
parents and teachers of school chill.
dren be Yigilant in this matter.
1t Is often impossible even for the
physician to make positive diagnosis
Of scarlet fever. and II Is not unlikely
that there have been some unreported
cases of this disease for the same
reason as cited in the case OF diphthe-
ria, Considering the highly conta-
gious nature Of this disease and its
extreme dangerousness TOO much en-
phasis can not be laid upon the i'm
portance Of consulting a physician for
every case Of sore throat or skin rash.
The observance Of this practice would
undoubtedly prevent much unneces.
sary sickness and many deaths.
While the physicians OF the city
deserve the highest commeDdation for
their promptness in reporting diphthe-
ria and scarlet fever. they have been
equally lax in reporting cases of mea.
sizes, chicken-pox, whoopIng cough and
mumps, and 1t is believed that num-
Der OF cases Of typhoid fever have
not been reported. The attention Of
physicians is also called to the fact
that in accordance with the Acts O..
the Legislature Of 1907 all cases of
tuberculosis coming under their care
are required to be reported.
In the eyes of the law II Is the duty
Of any citizen to report to the health
department any case Of an infectious
or contagious disease coming under
their observation. This will greatly
assist the health officer in collecting
and compiling reliable statistics on a
very important subject.
1t will be interesting and instructive
to compare the report of deaths and
contagious diseases as made last year
with the present one and summary
is here given:

Report Of Infectious and Contagious
Diseases for the Year March is,

The above report, In so far as 1t re-
fers to scarlet fever and diphtheria,
is believed to be complete and accu-
rate. All cases Of these two diseases
were effectively quarantined and so
far as could be learned no new cases
were contracted from the ones which
had been quarantined. 1t is undoubt.
eddy true that there have been several
cases OF diphtheria in the city during
the last year which have not been re-
ported to the health department, be-
cause no physician was in attendance,
the cases to referred to being cases OF
sore throat with such mild symptoms
that no physician was called and con,
sequently the disease was not reeog'

unrecognized cases often give rise to
severe cases in other members Of the

Ihe ClaSSltlcati0n as above given is
based upon the cause OF death as as.
signed by the attending physician on
the death certificate, and the health
officer consequently dlsclaims all re.
sponsibility for the diagnosis. In
many instances the cause Of death as,
signed is not all that could be desired
from the standpoint OF the Dathologist
and the statistician. For instance, in
stead Of mitral disease q diagnosis
which would convey a more definite
idea Of the pathological condition
present would be preferable. In mod.
ern medicine a diagnosis OF heart fail.
ure is considered an open confession
of ignorance. In the cause OF pneu.
monia the physician signing the death
certificate has in most instances failed
TO specify whether the pneumonia was
lobar or Of the bronchial type, an
omission which in most cases could
easily be remedied. Hypertrophy OF
the liver and hemorrhage from the
stomach are both symptoms Of dis
ease and not names Of pathological
conditions OF the organs. They are
consequently inadequate and unsatis.
factory as causes Of death. In the
case Of intestinal obstruction Il would
be desirable to know whether the OBJ,
structiOn was acute or chronic,
Bright's disease is also no longer con-
sidered sufficiently specific from a
pathological standpoint. The terms
"Infantile disease" "TOxaemia," Eek.

solutely worthless when assigned as
the cause Of death. These irregular
tiles undoubtedly exist as result OF
haste and not from a desire on the
part of the attending physician to be
inaccurate.
