FLU ASCRIBED
TO MESS KITS
Dr.. William c. Rucker De.
scribes Spread of Dis
ease in Army.
DID you know that

DID you know that
The discovery that five times as
many men who ate from mess kits
contracted influenza as did those who
ate from dishware furnished the clue
for checking the disease in army
camps.
That diseases in this war among
American troops came from more
different causes than in any previ-
Gus war?
That mumps is regarded as a sort
OF barometer of how nearly soldiers
are observing proper principles Of
personal hygiene7
These facts were brought. out by
DR.. William Colby Rucker. surgeon.
L. s. Public Health Service, in a
lecture yesterday afternoon and last
evening before the National Geo
graphic Society.
Used Cold Water.
1t was not that aluminium mess kits
had any hygienic advantage over
crockery dishware. DR.. Rucker ex-
planned. but because mess kits were
washed in cool water. and dishware
in hot water: the germs from the
mouths of those who used the latter
were killed.
Speaking of the different types and
causes of diseases in this and pre-
vious wars. the speaker continued:
In the present war sanitary sci
ence had not yet progressed to the
point where it can control those dis
eases whose prevention is dependent
upon rigid personal hygiene. Safe
guarding of food and water supplies.
proper disposal of wastes. eradica-
ton OF insects-sll are measures
which act 10 protect the health of
the entire command as a mass. They
function without any volition on the
part OF the individual soldier.
Sort of Danger Signal.
"Mumps indicate fairly accurately
whether soldiers have grasped this
important lesson. Mumps constitute
a sort of danger signal pointing TO
the existence of conditions which
must be watched"
DR.. Rucker stated that $4,000 men
of whom accurate records had been
kept:
Eight had more toes than normal.
Thirty had web toes-"They ought
TO have Joined the navy" he said.
One in every fifty had corns.
Tive were found requiring a shoe
size ''lS triple E"
"One of these" he said. went
barefooted until shoes could be made.
The other resourcefully secured g
pair OF fourteens, cut off the toes
and let nature take its course"
