Health Day Jan, 10
In New Hampshire
By Proclamation.

Concord. n. H., Jan. 4-Gov. Samuel
d. Felker Saturday issued a proclamation
naming Jan. 16 as Health day. In his
proclamation the governor says:
Good health is a fundamental essen
tial to prosperity and happiness. It's
possession is largely dependent upon hy-
geinic and sanitary knowledge. 1t is,
therefore, appropriate to follow most
commendable practice of recent years.
that of designating a day on which espe-
cial consideration shall be given to the
conservation of human life and the allie
Walton of physical suffering.
I do. therefore, hereby suggest and
recommend the observance of a specially
designated day for the consideration and
discussion of public health questions. 1t
serves to focus thought and stimulate ae-
tivity along the lines of the prevention
and restriction of disease and to concen-
trate action that will result in greater
efficiency of purpose. Public enlighten-
ment, combined with executive and other
organized efforts, has already remarkably
reduced the mortality of some of the
communicable diseases. A continuation
of these forces will accomplish still
greater results.
1t is fitting that on Health Day'
the various social, charitable and 9TH
er public spirited organizations give
special consideration to it's purpose and
aid as much as possible in furthering
its object. instruction in health mat
ters might, to advantage, be given in
our public schools.
Remember especially the sufferings
of the poor. Think of the destitute
sick. Ponder upon means for their re-
lief. Give them such aid as charitable
hearts and willing hands can be-
stow.
THE press of the State, which has
always done much to disseminate san
itary information, would doubtless
willingly publish short articles on the
protection of public health.
Il believe that Health Day. if OBJ
served with such attention as it de-
serves and in such a broad way as it's
name implies, will accomplish much
for the physical and moral welfare of
the people of New Hampshire"
