The bulletin points out that of the common obstacles to

In the development of general public health work according

He did.

WHAT OTHER
EDITORS SAY
No Pier Lightsl

(WeSt Vtrginian, Fa1rmonL)
The steamer Kanawha went down
in the Ohio river on Wednesday even
ing and the captain Of the boat says
that there were no lights burning on
the pier which his steamer ran into
during a squall. The captain says
that usually lights flashed out from
the masts on the wall, but that there
were no lights on the night Of the dis
aster, and that before any person
realized what was happending the Ka-
nawha had struck the iron pier and
had started to sink.
If it is a regulation to have lights
burning on the piers on the river dams
then an investigation is in order, to
find out the reason why there were no
lights on Wednesday. There may be
some legitimate reason why there were
no lights, but II it was simply a case
of negligence on the part of some en-
ploye then that person made a most
serious error

there is much waste from neglect
and failure to take proper care OF
things which cost money.
Anyone who has ever been in the
country will readily recall the sight
of tools, machinery and vehicles ex-
posed TO the elements poor, insani-
tary shelter, or none at all for stock;
chickens roosting in trees, or on
fences for lack Of proper coops; fruit
trees untrimmed, laden with dead
limbs and decayed spots on the
trunks; gardens neglected, houses TN
painted, doors unhinged, shingles
broken and rain spouts and door
steps out Of repair.
Every one OF these symptoms of
shiftlessncss spells loss of money.
Extravaganza does not always
mean an outlay of money, but may
involve an outlay of unnecessary
labor, through carclessness, which
means diminution of income. For
instance:
One quail will destroy $4,000 bugs
and 6,000000,000 weed seeds annu-
ally, according to Mrs. Margaret NJ.

University.
