BOARD OF HEALTH
PRAISED FOR ITS
WORK IN NEWARK
City Leads in National Reforms
Advocated. Says Or. J.
T. Wrightson.

Newark's health officers and the
Beard of Health We're praised at a
aeeting of the board last night by
Jlr J. T. Wrightson. who, in COM
pany with Commissioner Timothy f.
Fovle. were deiegates last week at
the annual meeting of the American
Public Health Society at Jackson
Vile, Fla. DR.. Wrightson declared
that the manner in which Newark
was credited at the convention
proves eonclusively that Newark
leads in health matters and others
follow.
II was more than interested in the
papers read at the convention" said
Mr.. Wrightson. These papers urged
reforms. | was very proud TO know
that the reforms advocated in a ma
fional manner have been carried out
IN Newark several years ago.
1.-THE health officer and his assist
ants should feel proud of the manner
in which Newark forged ahead. Al
though we have worked wonders IN
Newark, yet we have a great deal
more to do. We have lowered the
death rate from thirty-two to four
teen per one thousand ia twenty
wears. This means work, and We
have all done it.
TO live in, with the exception Of
nne thing. That one exception is
that mudhole, the Passaic river.
The sulphate of hydrogen arising
from the stenchy waters lowers one
Vitality, and, In many cases, is the
indirect cause of many deaths.
rOur drinking water is the best in
the land, and when the Passaic val
lev sewer is completed then the death
rate, | am sure. will be even lower.
Commissioner Foyle also made a
few rem arks showing that Newark
was more than on the map IN
health matters.
The board, after the remarks OF
Or. Wrightson, entered into dis
cussion as to the advisabilitysof haV-
ing a new laboratory erected for the
work of DR.. Richard \. Connolly,
bacteriologist, and DR.. Harrison S.
MARYLAND pathologist al the city
Hospital This matter was taken UP
lass week by the public buildings
eummittee of the Common Council
md il is probable that the building
0ill be erected. Sketches are now
being drawn.
Tho board decided to ask the Com
mon Council for $3.50 to be used for
the erection Of this building. II is
probable that the laboratory will be
situated on the old tuberculosis hos
pital site in Camden street. The
oard stated that room at the City
Hospital for a chemical laboratory
> lacking. and for this manner will
iirge the erection Of a new building

A good story Is told of two great
Irishmen, the late Archbishop Plum
ket and Father Healy, the well-known
parish priest of Bray. Making their
way together to Bray Railroad sta
ton one morning, the priest urged
that they should hurry; but the pre-
late's appeal to his watch convinced
him that they had ample time. They
arrived to see the train for Dublin
disappearing. The archbishop's apollo
giles were lavish. He pleaded that he
always had unbounded faith in his
watch. my dear Lord Plunket,''
was Father Healy's rejoinder, faith
