REASON WHY WE HAVE NO
MORE SMALLPOX EPIDEMICs
Vaccination Will Also Rid Us Of Ty-
phoid the Same n II Has Immu-
missed us From Smallpox.

(By DIR. A. II. Lewis, State Health
Commissioner
why is II that we no longer have
epidemics of smallpox?
A few years ago when case Of
smallpox was reported in the neigh
borhood. II would be matter Of only
few weeks until the disease would
have spread to the stage of a near
epidemic.
Same way with diphtheria. Usually
some school child would first develop
II then IL would be a matter of only a
week or ten days until all students that
were in the same room as the sick
child. would be taken down with diph-
iberia. This IL because both Of these
diseases are highly contagious and NO
PREVENTIVE measures had been
taken,
But these diseases are no longer as
prevalent as they used to be, and prob
ably will never again reach the stage
of statewide or countrywide epidemic
as they used to do. Science has proven
that they need not.
Smallpox is prevented by vaccination
and diphtheria by the use of anti-tox
in.
Typhoid fever is now also in the list
of ''Preventable Diseases"
Although typhoid fever is a disease
that is easily transmitted from one
person to another, 1t is not contag gious
in the same sense as these other two
diseases. The reason that one case of
typhoid usually follows another is that
the sanitary conditions in the commu-
nifty are such as to infect its citizens
with. typhoid germs.
And while the State Board of Health
has been particularly active in the
matter Of obtaining better sanitary
conditions through -out the state by
supervising the installation of new
water systems and sewage disposition;
by eradication Of flies and the open
privy nuisance yet there are districts
