Calls Dismissal Unjust.

7
AS the result OF its own deliberations
the committee respectfully submits:
I. That the dismissal OF a teacher
for marriage or motherhood can he
justified only on the ground that i. IS
detrimental 10 the interests OF thc
schools.
.. That the interruption Of school
work by granting leave of absence L.
little il any greater than the Interrupt
ton caused by dismissal provided
that the position is not held open
during such absence.
D. That it Is undesirable that women
should continue t. teach during COSTA
ton. and that they are much less
likely 10 do this II they know that
they can secure a leave Of absence.
4. That. although in a large propor-
ton of cases the domestic duties and
interests OF the mother-toachcr must
seriously affect her school work, II il
difficult to Justify the dismissal Of any
efficient teacher on the ground that
she may be expected to become in
efficient or ncglectful OF duty at some
future time
:. That the interest Of the schools
in this respect should he protected ny
effective means Of dealing with actual
inefiiciency or neglect Of duty rather
than by any general rule excluding
all mother-tcachers from the service.
individual cases vary so widely tina
the committee has endcavorcd to lind some
flexible plan which would cnab'c cacl

seems impossible under the presen' syS
tenn of permanent tenure"
After recitirg the amended section a.
the bylaws the report concludes;
The committee recommends further

should not be held open during such alb
sence. but should b" permanently tillet
without delay. and that mothcr-tea cher,
on return 10 duty should be assigned I,
new positions or placed upon the excess
list"
The report has yet to pass the com
mittee on bylaws and legislation before
II can become an amendment. Follownl
this II must receive twenty-four votes or
the floor OF the Board OF Education
The report met with varying opinion,
among those members of the board wiilinl
to express themselves. Dr, Ira S. " lie
who has often been tho advocate of tn,
teacher mothers in the board, found II IA
from satisfactory,
while this Is a compromise on the par

H. II creates an artificial spying system
OF the part Of the board and leaves alb

The committee also recommends tina

when she returns to duty She shall he as

screening some flies will make their way into
the home. These must be killed. An easy way
to accomplish it is to take some soft fiat object
such rolled-up newspaper and kill them by
the simple means of striking them. If there be
too many of these insects to go after in that
manner, there are many excellent fy-traps and
fly poisons that can be made to do effectual work.
By all these methods combined flies may be got

Yet his intrusion into millions of dwelling places
remains unchecked. He is born and bred in the
filth on which he feeds, and his pestilential prog
ress from dunghill to dining room brings disease
and death
Flies kill more persons than wild beasts

The earliest convincing evidence Of the part
played by house-dies In the dissemination of the
typhoid bacillus furnished by Drs. Vaughan,

Investigated camp conditions during the Spanish
American war. DR.. Vaughan, member of the
United States army typhoid commission sum

active in the dissemination of typhoid fever in
these paragraphs
"(a) Flies swarmed over infected fecal matter

foods prepared for the soldiers In the tents.

persons afflicted with that disease.
1t is a ready carrier and dissemination of the
germs of typhoid fever also 1t carries these
germs from the privy or other filth and deposits
them upon all kinds of food in the kitchen. It
may even pollute the entire water supply Of a
community
tuberculosis and typhoid, however though the
most important, are not by any means the only
diseases which the fly carry. Asiatic cholera.
bubonic plague bacillary dysentery, summer diar-
rhea of infants, anthrax, the tropical disease
known as yaws, ophthalmia pink eye of chill
dren, diphtheria and smallpox and certain para
site worms-alI these may be carried by the fly
and the infection spread either through the me-
dunn of food or by direct contact with man.
Owing to the great prevalence and the large
mortality in the United States caused by summer
diarrhea of children. the fly the carrier of the
germs of this malady becomes at once most i'm
portant factor to consider in the efforts made to
save child life and mother should be ignor-
ant of this fact. The food given little children
Should be carefully guarded against coming in
contact with the house-fy.
The remedies to be used against the fly may
be divided into two classes: Those which the
community may use through the agency OF
boards OF health and those which the individual
citizen should employ to protect his house against
the entrance of those pests and to guard his
Icodstuffs against contamination by them

There Is one duty that once
understood can hardly be neg
lected. Any material known
to- contain germs of disease
should be disposed of immedi-
ately so that no flies may
ccme in contact with it. In
the large cities this has been
largely effected through the
INSTALLATION of modern systems
of sanitary drainage. In the
sncaller towns and villages,
Were no sewerage systems
exist, this can be accom-
plBhed by the use of the SAM
tayy privy. This, however, is
on.y partly successful. The
ideal method would be to rid
a place of flies altogether by
destroying their bree ding
places. The horse manure Of
stables can be so handled and
treated as to kill all the eggs,
the larvae and the pupae
found in them. If these were
totally destroyed no flies could
possibly exist.
The individual citizen must
protect his own house against
the entrance Of the fly.
Screening is the best method
known: but In snita of all
