One-half OF the 500 boarded sightseeing
automobiles and made tour of the
city under the tutelage of a megaphone
artist. who pointed out the places of
interest. Later the fleet of automobiles
returned and took out the remaining

One of the points of interest to which
DIR. James Hughes, who is in charge
OF the party, has ordered every member
to see is the Washington Monument
DR.. hughes has issued instructions that
every member of the party go up the
big shaft and take a long and COM
prehensive look at Washington. The
members are then, in order to judge
for themselves the height of the Monu-
ment, ordered to walk down from the
top OF the Monument to the ground. In
this way DR.. Hughes hopes to impress
upon them the fact that the Monument
is one of the highest in the world.
A section of the Canadian party Will
leave Washington on Wednesday to
make trips TO Philadelphia and New

the members, however, will remain In

trail abattoir owned and controlled
by the city is more economical for
the dealer and gives opportunity for
the inspection Of every animal Of
fered for slaughter. Under these
conditions diseased animals, those
in an unfit condition from other
causes, overhead, ETC., can be de-
tected. The number daily reject
ed by the federal inspectors is
abundant proof that close inspec-
ton is necessary for pure meat
supply. Where there are many pri-
vate slaughter, pens, experience shows
fraudulent practices of the worst
type. Animals wholly unfit are
killed and sold to the detriment of
the health of the people.
food stuffs can NOT be kept and
handled in clearly way without
equipment. The model market
should be OF iron-concrete with adj
eauate water equipment; the stalls
commodious and airy, each sup
piled with refrigerator room and mar
Bile blocks. If the meat is display
ed, it should be under glass in some
way protected from handling by the
purchaser and from flies. All mar
kets in this section should be screen
ed with double doors.
.'In the public market a system OF
refrigeration by mechanical means
is practical and economical. This
is far ahead of the ice-cooled box
and is more sanitary.
''The initial cost of a model market
may seem beyond the community
means, but it is a safe expenditure.
Every investment for health protec-
ton and promotion brings returns.
"The market, itself, however, is
only one-half the problem. Eff
ficient, intelligent, Vigilant super
vision is the other. The market
master should possess tact, execu-
tive ability and strong character.
He must see to the cleanliness, or
der and maintenance of the build
ings. His policy should show nei-
Their fear nor favor.
1.-THE city inspector of abattoirs
and markets should have full author
ity to destroy any food product Of
fered for sale unfit for human con-
sumption. He should be required
to make visits to the various mar
kets or stalls many times daily. If
too much for one officer, assistance
should be employed. The local
board of health should demand daily
reports. They should stand by the
officer in the rigid enforcement Of
every detail Of the regulations. It
is unfortunately true that many
dealers have to be made to obey.
1t is also a 1amentable fact that the
public is notably Indifferent to many
things which are for its own good.
"a clean, wholesome food supply is
one of the most vital of all the ele-
ments in community life. No city
can afford to have a system of dis
tribution other than the best.
