DR. BLOWN GIVES TALK ID NU.l,SES

Public Health Administration" was the subject of a lecture delivered a- the Health and Charities building last night by Health officer pr. Walter II. Brown. before 200 nurses, under the auspices of the VlsI -1g Nurses association.
 Dc. Brown gave synopsis of the history of health, wyrh anu medicine -eulag oi the way lu wuIon medicine has been brough- to its present state of perfection from the days when physicians thought that diseases were caused by demons lnhabiuug the hu- man system.
 The real bis wholesome thing which nurses have an opportunity to uJ la not to cure sick people. but to prevent well beings from becoming sick. I want 10 stimulate you 10 go deeper into your subject. The com peusaJous that are going to come to every nurse are real spiritual com peusations, which after all are the only compensations worth while in .his life"
 Dr. Brown then told of health de- partment activity which he said was developed In an effort to overcome plasues and epidemics. All health work according to the speaker was based on common nUisances. Accord ing to pr. Brown the federal govern ment has no organized department of health. He told of the national bu- reaus which are now being conducted, then took up the subject of state health boards.
 ,r.E- which are framed by the municipality are for the express purpose of pro tecting the public health. But the police power given to the health de- partment in Bridgeport, to enforce these health measures is far from q l. equate according to pr. Brown. He told of efforts which have been made from time 10 time to legislate morals and religion into the public, and -.lu that l mad been a failure of the most sweeping kind every time it was attempted.
 We have been trying to stop them from thIeying and murdering. yet we have no decrease in our jails or police forces. We are trying the same old game with reference to health. It won't work. There is only one answer-education Education is the only way. We do not change habits because of law but by practice and learning"
 He outlined the work of the Bureau of Vital Statttistics and said that this division writes the book of life and death," and shows by its records whether progress is being. made in combating disease.
 Dr. Brown dwelt at considers bl g length on school hygiene, and stated that in this respect Bridgeport is far ahead of moss of the cities of New England. He stated that teaching children preventative methods was something which would prevent them from becoming derelicts when grown up. In this respect he gave startling figures taken from the recent draft figures which showed that 49 per cent of the draftees were physically deficient.

one female seminary, with nine teach
ers in ell. There was no churches at
all in Yamhill county. The people as-
tended services in school houses.

about one-fourth of the deaths were re-
ported as being very sudden. The old
original census Of 1850 under the head
of "eauso of death" contains tho short
word, "shot." The other great cause
of death was recorded as 'sorc throat.
In Josephine county, the census OF 1856
shows that 10 people died during the
year, of which were shot, died OF
