FOR ENTIRE STATE

At the last session OF the general
assembly a law was enacted direct
ing the teaching of hygiene and san
itation: and primer on these topics
was prepared for the use OF teachers
in The public school system On the
whole the book proved satisfactory.

lessons transmitted to them; but i'm
provements have naturally suggested,
ton Of the primer is being undertaken
by DR.. Nj. f. Dryden, OF tho State
Health department
One of the subjects most ernpha-
sized by health authorities Is Cleanli
ness. This does not stop with per-
sonally clean habits but with clean
premises and clean vicinities.
DR. Roy X Flanagan has that
branch OF the work in charge. He
looks after locations, not persons, So
he is getting the state to clean up.
Recently several OF the Virginia cities
and larger towns went through
campaign 20 remove unsishtly spots
hut this work that Or. Flanagan IS
undertaking goes farther and gets 10
the root OF the disease breeding
problem.
Already a score or more OF towns
have promised to get busy when the
signal is given, and 1t is reasonably
sure that virtually all towns in the
state viii take part In the campaign.
