SWAT THE FLY
PAIGN HERE
STARTS soon

4 campaign against the house fly
in Honolulu is to begin in the Very
near future Aroused by the report
from the Harvard Medical School that
after an exhaustive study of the sub
Ject the definite conclusion has been
reached by the scientists conuected
with the institution that the Mouse
fly is the direct cause of all iuiantilc
paralysis. Arthur G. Smith, president of
the Civic Federation. says he intends
calling the attention of the federation
TO the subject.
He expects to urge organization for
a campaign in this city against the
pestiferous small insect, and believes
it can be conducted with certainty
of success if mothers are convinced
that the house fly's presence in their
homes places their children directly
in the way Of such dangers as in
fantile paralysis, typhoid fever and
the other dirt" diseases to which the
fly is the great contributing cause.
Almost every city on the MAIN
! land has its fly-fighting crusade" said
Mr. Smith, but Honolulu so far has
completely ignored the subject. Most
of the mainland municipalities, of
course, have their campaigns in the
summertime, when the flies are most
prevalent. Few of them are bothered
by the pest more than a few months
in the year, but Honolulu has the
house fly the year round. "A concert
ed effort to reduce the evil would
therefore be Just as practicable today
as it will next July or; August.
""The cause OF the dread infantile
paralysis has. been a mystery to in
vestigators for years, but the recent
declaration from the Harvard Medical
School is based on long, careful study.
And it is enough to brighten every
father and mother, bringing the real
ization that the fly in the house is an
eyerTpresent menace TO the little
folk 3. 1888. - 81,
Honolulu had its ainfantfle paralysis
scare a couple OF years ago. when
thirty-six cases of the malady were
reported in he territory, sixteen in
Honolulu, and with four deaths re-
sulting. 1t reached its height in De-
cember, 1910, but since that time the
number of cases has gradually dim
inished, until, during the fiscal year
d911-12 only ten cases were reported
to the board of health, these all be-
ing outside Honolulu and none result
ing fatally. There have been no
cases reported during the last few
months.
It is thought that better sanitary
conditions has had much to do with
this situation, yet the report from
the medical authorities indicates that
another outbreak may be anticipated
at any time, so long as the housefy
and his conspirator. the barn fly, has
entrance to the kitchen. the dining
room or the nursery.
