What the Street Cleaners Have to
Cope With.

If IL is snatched awey to the hospltai
and left to the care of strangers.
How often during the hard days when
babies on the crowded East Side were
being stricken down by scores and hun
dreds did the health officers and am
bulance physicians meet the piteous
plea:
"You can't have my baby! She'll die
if you take her to the hospital! How
could she ever get it when watched
her all the time? Just let me take her
and go away to my sisters. out in Jer-
sey, and l know she will get WE'LL"
Even when kindly, sympathetic
women were detailed to go with the
ambulance women who cared so much
about the babies that they could soothe
even the fears of poor, ignorant for
eign mothers into letting them take the
little ones to the one place where they
would have a chance for life-the ter
ror Of the ambulance and hospital
blocked at every turn the ceaseless eff
forts made to stem the course OF the
plague. Women who could do so snug
gled their children out Of the city with
out knowing whether they were infect
ed or not. Women who could not get
away hid the little ones in dark inner
rooms or out-of-the-way places. Moth
er love is cunning, and so cleverly was
this done in some cases that infected
children escaped even the most thor
ough house-to- house search.
So the plague spread for time, but
from that very spread and the terror
of it came a new knowledge and
spirit Of cooperation that holds the
promise of better things.
The Bright Side of Epidemics.
When a disease reaches the proper
lions of an epidemic it is big enough
to command serious attention. Ever
since infantile paralysis first appeared
in this country, in the epidemic of
1907, there have been sporadic cases.
Also there have been more or less per-
sistent efforts to isolate the germ of
the disease and to discover some rem
edy.
But it needed an epidemic TO start
the serious, persistent campaign that
alone could do any lasting good. In the
endeavor to remove all possible sources
of infection and 20 block every avenue

not as convincing or as strong as &C

other words, that the deaths in the
registration area in 1908 amounted to
691,574; those of children under one

nized fact that the general death rate
of the country is largely dependent on
its infant mortality.

"The number OF deaths among chill

we consider that in 1908, according 10

is clearly shown that summer COM

infant mortality. OF course there is
no way of showing in what proportion
of these cases Of summer complaint
the house fly was instrumental, but
under the conditions that exist, prsc-
tically everywhere in midsummer, both
as to the swarm of flies and the lax

sion that flies bear very important

learn TO break up, divert, stop in some
manner in every manner - the ex-
change Of infected discharges among
children at school and among families
at home. If infectious diseases are to
be abolished or abated under present
conditions"
The experience Of New York during
the recent epidemic of infantile paraly-
sis seems fully TO bear out this nat
footed statement, made by DIR. HILBERT
Winslow Hill, Director of the Institute
Of Public Health, in his book entitled
THE New Public Health" (Macmillan).
DR.. Hill puts heavy responsibility
m n women, but. unfortunately, the
facts seem to bear him out. As he says,
95 per cent Of the infectious diseases
Of children are nursed at homo by
mothers. and Of all the things that
women ere not taught and never dream
Of practising in their households and
teaching to their children scientific
nursing Of the kind that prevents the
spread Of disease is the very head and
front.
But, even while he asserts that
women in general-and chiefly the
mothers-keep infectious diseases 60
ing by their utter ignorance Of proper
precautions in the way of isolation and
disinfection, Dr. Hill admits that there
is every excuse for these poor moth
ers; that in addition to overwork, over
crcwding, lack of facilities, ignorance
and misdirected training, there is AL
ways the great human equation to be
taken into consideration-the fierce
mother love whose instinct is to shield
at any cost the little helpless child
from fear, loneliness and the strange,
unknown dangers that may menace it

dren did not congregate In places OF
amusement and SO spread infection.
And everywhere were police officers
watching for violations of the sanitary
law and helping to protect the people
against themselves. Everywhere the
magistrates were reproving, exhotting
and fning offenders against the sani-
tary low.
The Home Defence League, OF TWEEN
ty-one thousand citizens, worked side
by side with the officers against the
common foe. Health officers and food
officials made a thorough cleanup Of
unsanitary stores and soda fountains,
condemning bad milk, fruit, ice cream,
etc, wherever they found it.
1t was a great cleanup, and it did a
lot OF good on general principles.
Whether or not il arrested the course
of infsntile paralysis, however, is an
open question, for the greatest scien-
lists, physicians and psychologists Of
the nation agree with the reports made
by DR.. Simon Flexner, of the Rookie
Teller Institute, that the disease is
spread almost wholly by personal con-
tact with infected persons either vic
Tins or those who become infected
through attendance upon patients.
DR.. Flexner asserted positively that
the virus enters the body as rule, il
not exclusively, by the way of the
mucus membrane of the nose and
throat, and is readily distributed by
coughing, sneezing, kissing and by
means of fingers and articles contain
mated with these secretions, as well
as with The intestinal discharges.
Another possible source of the in
lection is the common house fly. Flies
often collect about the nose and mouth
of patients Ill with infantle paralysis
and feed on the secretions, then, con-
taminated with the virus, they deposit
it on the noses and mouths of healthy
persons, upon food or eating utensils.
Almost the only danger Of spreading
the disease lies in one or the other Of
these forms of contact.
Why Mothers Are Responsible.
Under hospital re-sanitation, iso-
lation and disinfection-botht these ave
nues Of infection are, of course, block
| ed It is only where the child is kept
at home and the mother is ignorant OF
the rules of scientific sanitation anc
disregards the necessity of complete
isolation that the disease can spread
So, after all, the responsibility fol
the spread of the epidemic, and OF
most other epidemics among children
seems to be put squarely up to the
mothers.
The remedy lies primarily in the ed
ucation OF women, beginning with the
girl in the public school, to understand
with a thoroughness that goes to the
bono that they must do their part in
the saving from illness and death OF
the children that are, or may be, theirs
Efficient public administration may
control four OF the five great avenue:
