Who would have thought that the tin
can is menace to the public health?
The expert malaria investigators of the
U. S. Public Health Service have found
however that discarded tin cans con-
tanning rain water are breeding places
for the mosquito which is the sole agent
in spreading malaria. A hole in the
bottom of the can might have resulted
in the saving of human life. Certain
ly it would have assisted in preventing
q facilitating illness. Empty tin cans
have no business about the premises
anyway, but if we mustso decorate our
back Yards, let's see to it that the can
has hole in the bottom. |
