Only Six Persons Treated This Ycnr by
State Health Department.
Only six cases of hydrophobia have
been treated by the State Health De-
partment during the first half OF this
year, although in 1910 fifty persons
were given the rabies treatment. ~
good many OF last years cases came
from Richmond. but the disease has
not made it's appearance here this
year
When mention is made of treatment
OF cases of rabies 1t must not. or
course, be Inferred that these persons
had the disease. In fact. when II
makes Its appearance II is incurable.
The treatment Is given those bitten
by an animal which has developed
rabies. Only small percentage Of
those bitten develop the trouble. but
naturally no one like s to take chances
Although the number of treatments
has been decreased. DR.. Meade Fergu-
son, the State meteorological. hardly
thinks this necessarily indicates a
lessening of the possible contagion.
His reason for this is that practi-
cally no preventive measures are be-
ing taken.

cate the establIs hment Of training
school for nurses at the City Home
Such an. institution, they said, would
better the quality OF nursing at the
City Home and would render the insti-
tuition in every way more efficient. II
is proposed that the nurses serve the
same period of probation as in other
hospitals. and be graduated in the
same length of time with degrees equal
to those of other nurses. provided. they
stand the required State examina tons.
H Dr. James buchanan, of the Asso-
ciated Charities, addressed the COM
mittee In advocacy of a place of de-
tention for Juvenile delinquents. He
said that for the last three years
they had obtained refuge In the Bal
lard House, and that in the last year
LOAF had been cared for and kept from
the police stations and Jail pending
thcir trials. He also noted several
cases in which children saved from
criminal channels had done we'll and
given indications of becoming good
citizens. The question is to provide
a place for such delinquents, as the
Associated Charities took them only
as temporary measure The com
mittee took the matter under consider
alton.
Because of the large number of
buildings now going up in the city,
Building Inspector Beck asked the COM
mittee for $1,000 for temporary help
In the way OF inspectors. Some of the
structures. he said were SO large that
II would require nearly the entire time
