FOR PREVENTION OF DISEASE

Methods Of Prevention.
SWAT THE FL IS THE SLOGAN
House Fly Comes In for Considerable
Alteration from Those who Are
CoRsIderina the Health Of
People of Nebraska.

A more technical trend OF discussion was
taken IN the Tuesday morning meeting OF
the State Health association meeting at the
Rome hotel The keynote o. the discus
sions by physicians. az In former lectures.
was that disease In most cases can be pre-
vented and that proper precautions on the
part OF the public will do very much to
save suffering individuals and prevent the
spread OF devastating maladies and the
consequent economic loss TO the community.
DR.. J. NJ. Banister. formerly chief sur
geon OF the Department OF the Missouri.

able Diseases OF the Eye" DIT. Shalek Of
Omaha spoke upon What Can Be Done
to Prevent the Spread Of venereal Dis
eases" and DR.. A. ID. Dunn OF Omaha
upon Typhoid" All the doctors and lay
men who have spoken have Insisted that
typhoid IL one disease which precautions
and carefulness in sanitation will eradi-
cate.
"swat the Fly"
The philosophic note that underiav all
discussions at the afternoon meeting of
the State Health association yesterday
was:
swat the fly"
Keep your wells clean; watch for fresh
air and stay IN the sunshine. but--swat
the fly. Swat i'm good and swat i'm
plenty"
Flies are more worthy foes than come
people might suppose. With pestiferous
malice they cause most OF the disease that
is suffered by humanity. They breed in
9th and are home loving bodies. Accord
ing to DR.. Connell ny born east of Six
teenth street would never deign to ny west
Of Tweuty-fourth.
Mrs. X. r. ]. Edholm, executive secre-
tary OF the National Anti Tuberculosis So
ciety OF Nebraska, ventured the opinion
that since there were fewer horses during
recent years there have been fewer flies,
thereby boosting the trade for gasoline
and automobiles. One doctor suggested
that painting walls blue would discourage
the flies, although he had no theory for
their psychological horror Of that heavenly
color. But az any rate the assembled doc
tors and laity Joined in the glad slogan
OF slaughter, swat the n.y."
Theirs not TO reason why,
Theirs but to do or die;
Onward and swat the fiyl
That was the slogan
Mrs. X. r. T. Edholm read a paper
giving convincing facts OF the activity Of
the anti-tuberculosis workers who have
done 30 much toward stamping out that
disease DR.. Cornell spoke upon the citys
food and milk supply, recounting the re-
cent campaign against dirty diaries and
making a plea for pasteurization. DR..
@. H. Wilson. state healthy inspector. read
q paper on Quarantine"
Following the discussion by DR.. s. r.
Towne Of Omaha on "A Square Deal for
the Child" the delegates advocated
strongly a statewide law sor medical in
spection Of the schools.
DR.. i. ID. Howard OF Harvard stated
that in his opinion that half tie pupils
who go through the schools at present
