Special to The Evening Journal.
sELBYvILLE. Jan. 2O-SpeakIng at
the Farmers Institute today. on the
topic tuberculosis in Delaware" DR..
Charles II. Keene, executive secretary Of
the Delaware state Tuberculosis Com
mission. emphasized the fact that tu-
berculosls is today the greatest menace
TO health and life In this State.
Health" said Or. Keene, h pur-
chasable, but only at thricefold'price'
time, care and money.
The average citizen may purchase
community health with money either
through taxation or through voluntary
subscriptions. The money thus raised
purchases health directly or Indirectly
through activities OF the Board OF
Health In contagious disease control
sanitary sewage disposal, pure water
supply-particularly milk; or through
the Board OF Education in procuring
clean. sanitary school buildings, prop
erly lighted, heated, ventilated ana
cleaned.
"Indvldual health Is partly purchased
in the same ways. but more largely IN
the expenditure OF individual time ana
care 10 eat proper food; get suficlent
fresh air and plenty OF rest and recre-
alton -,
"The neht against disease has been
a winning one and its progress Is an
index of mans advancing clNlliAatl,o ol' on.
One by one the great epldemlcs NhluH
have at times threateed the very eNisl-
ence OF the human race have peel
conquered; first the plague, by general
cleanliness and the destruction OF rals
which carry the disease, then smallpox
bv the use OF vaccination, then typhola
fever by proper sewage disposal anu
pure water supplies, then yellow ieNer
and malaria by the drainage or oilhg
of swamps and other breeding places OF
the mosquito, then dlphtheria Dy the
early use OF antitOXine.
"There faces us the present great
hattie against the greatest enemy OF
an-TuberculOsis. II too VIII De
conquered. and by such simple meas
ures as proper food. fresh air, and rest
and out door recreation"
Speaking Of "Child-Welfare," Mrs.
Ina ]. n. Perkins OF the Reconstruction
Commission said:
"It is still necessary to preach the
simple DON'T in connection with child
welfare. Many people do not know
that pickles, doughnuts. coffee, tea
pepper, and other spices pastry, ETC., are
moi good for babies and children. Many
people also do not know that long
neoked and long-tubed nursing bottles
that cannot be kept germ free, have
killed many babies. Pacifiers are still
often seen in babies mouths in spite
OF the publicity given to the eonnec-
tion between them and disease
adenoids, and other evils. The child
welfare nurses OF the State Recreation
! Commission have daily opportunities
in their visits TO homes 10 emphasize
IDONTS.' Generally speaking, they
ind that their listeners put suggestions
for improvement into practice. There
should be enough nurses engaged In
child welfare work TO be sure that
their teachings reach every home.
When local groups or some established
departments Of the State can take over
and extend the work OF the Reconstruc-
ton Commission this Will be accom-
plished."
