Editor Herald,
Dear Sir

Noting your remarks in a late
issue Of your paper, | will take this OPP
~portunity to tell the Public that the Sa-
nitary Regulations issued Jan. 80, 1886,
are still in force.
It is evident that said Sanitary Regu-
lations must be found wanting in several
instances due to tremendous progress
made in Medicine and its allied ranches,
as we'll as in every other field of endea-
vor, during the past 80 years. 1t has
therefore become necessary to, not only
insist on proper enforcement OF existing
regulations, but also to make some adj
diti0ns, which are as follows:
% Screening Of all water supplies.
(2) Fly proof construction Of all priVles.
81 Hinges and back stop to all privy
seat covers.
(4) Screened ventilation hole, or iue for
all privies.
(5) tits to be not more than 4 feet deep.
and cemented, bottom and sides.
(6) Screening of all butcher shops.
CD Meat and Milk must not be sold from
open trays or pans.
81 Carting away Manure twice weekly
and keeping yards clean.
Such Sanitary Measures together with
proper drainage, oiling of sW&mps, cut
ting away underbrush and rank vegeta-
ton, have transformed Cuba and the
Canal Zone, Panama, from Pest Holes
to Summer Resorts, certain localities in
the United States from Sinking Swamps
to Fertile Fields with consequent un-
dreamed Of health and prosperity.
New and adequate Sanitary Regula-
tons will be soon forthcoming.
The hearty and willing cooperation Of
every individual, especially property own
ers on this Island, is most earnestly soil
cited.
Our slogan should be: Our beautiful
Island is good but we can and will make
it better.
