bued with the idea that the chief
function Of a board Of health lab
oratory is to make a post mortem
of some cases in order to deter
mine the cause of death. or to
make some trivial examination
for some physician. am under
the impression that this Board of
Health. like all similar institu-
tions. was organized for the pur-
pose of preventing disease. May |
ask what this Board Of Health lab
oratory has done to justify it's ex-
istence. if we are to judge from
the interest it has taken in the pre-
vention and spread of typhoid
fever? I wonder if it might just
as well not exist as far as the
health of the community and
health of the State are concerned? =?
| wonder if it has ever occurred
to the laboratory authorities to en-
quire into the possible sources Of
typhoid fever. such as typhoid
carriers, flies. drinking water. raw
foods and the milk supplies Of
course when we come to consider
one or all Of these sources as pos
sible cause of fever here in New
ark, this work must of necessity
be carried out by the local Board
of Health, together with the lab
oratory. SO far we have no evidence
in any way to indicate that the
Board of Health has made any ef-
fort to prevent the spread of ty-
phoid fever. If we assume that
the Board of Health and the
Board of Health laboratory are
awake to the fact that typhoid has
existed here for several years,
doesn t it seem that they have
demonstrated their inability to
check the spread of this disease? I?

it seems to me the most important
work Of all is to find out the cause
and then devise methods to pre-
vent the spread of disease We
have to deal in Newark not alone
with local condition but one of
great interest to the State as well
Since almost every section of the
State has some student represent.

To the Editor Of the Newark
Post: The recent typhoid fever
scare has subsided. and | under
stand that there are few cases in
Newark at present, but would not
this be a good time for those in
authority to look into the situa
ton and to take some measures to
prevent the increase and spread OF
this deadly disease? During the
past few years Newark has suffer-
ed from a serious and costly epi-
demic of typhoid fever; and the
saddest part of it all is that we
have observed no marked decrease
in the number of cases. 1t seems
TO me something ought to be done
to get at the root of the trouble,
and some little effort made to
eliminate these cases OF typhoid
fever. A real live and active board
of health, with an up-to-date bac-
THEOLOGICAL laboratory. ought to
wake up to the situation and al
least make some inquiry as to the
cause of these cases, and to lnsti
tute some measures to stamp ou'
the dreaded disease. The State
Board of Health and the labora
tory Of the Board seem to be I'M
