ing spread of tuberculosis in their
city. Going about the work with
lcommendable energy, they engaged a
trained nurse to do the investigating
for them. Their choice fell upon Miss
Schloss. who was formerly an en-
ploye of the New York Department of
Health. Miss Schloss went to Little
Falls, and started investigating.
But Miss Schloss seems to be
young woman endowed with the rare
ability to look beyond effects to the
causes responsible for them.
Her Investigations led her to the
conclusion that the chief cause for
tuberculosis in Little Falls was the
utterly unsanitary conditions Of the
houses in which the great majority OF
mill workers were compelled to dwell,
as well as the exhausting hours of la
Dor in the mills and the low rate of
wages, which prevented the buying Of
proper food or proper care for the
sick. Believing that her employers
wanted true facts she embodied these
in her report, going into exact details
as to street and number of the worst
cases of unsanitary tenements.
The reception given her report. the
sudden coldness and utter lack OF in
terest, puzzled and surprised Miss
Schloss.
In pursuing her Investigations fur
cher, however. great light came to
her. She discovered that the husban Is
of the most prominent members of
the club that had employed her were
the owners of the very worst tene-
ments, and at the same time the own
ers of the mills in which the dwellers
in these tenements worked.

mitted by mosquitoes. For the ac-
cOmmodation of the sick upon the
isthmus the French built costly ana
we'll equipped hospitals. But in their
ignorance they made a terrible mis-
take. To protect patients from the
hordes of ants that infest that re-
giCn they placed the posts of the hos
Lital cots and beds in bowls of wa
ter. The water saved the sick men
from the ants but attracted the mo-
Isquitoes. There were no screens to
keep out the disease carriers and so
the fever ragged unchecked despite all
the doctors could DO.
1t was in 1900 at Havana that the
mosquito theory of yellow fever trans
mission was proven by United States
army surgeons. To establish that idea
those surgeons risked their lives and
at least one of them DR.. Jesse W. La
zear, lost his life in the cause. But
they won out. They stopped the fever
at Havana and later on when the
Americans took up work at Panama
and the yellow fever again became
prevalent 1t was the application of the
Havana remedies that saved the day.
That policy not only checked the epi-
demic but has kept 1t checked to this
day and in the opinion of the canal
commission secretary has made the
construction Of the Panama canal
possible. SO the real heroes of the
canal are not the men who have dug
the ditch but those who broke up
the mosquito traffic in fever and the
true victory was scored at Havana.
