The following letter written by D..

February 6, 1920.
To the Honorable Board of Health of
the City Of Abbeville.
Gentlemen:-
The right to petition is always
open to the humblest citizen. l BEG,
therefore, to protest against your re-
cent order closing the churches in
ueDhis city, and petition you to remove
the prohibition of persons assemh-
ling for the purpose Of worshipping
, God
Your official proclamation closes
~scharches, schools, moving picture
theatres" and no other places, and
forbids public meetings Of any
kind" Thus even two persons may
not meet in church for prayer,
with open doors. This, l submit, is.
discriminatory, unnecessary, unwise
and un-American.
/ beg to submit to you reasons up
on which I feel you will be justified
in revosing your order.
First, direct your attention to the
fact that, since your order has been
effective, have seen as many as
twelve persons assembled in a bark;
fourteen in a hotel lobby; large
number in a bachershop; and a
crowd Of fifteen or twenty negroes
around stove in store On Lhurch
street; and I have been informed Of
large numbers Of persons congreea-

THE PUBLIC HEALTH.
Vile Press and Banner.

Abbevllle Press anu Ddiihei'
Nobody wishes to be party to the
spread of disease. The public health
"A a matter of Importance to every
body, and those whose duty it Is to
look after the health Of the commu-
nifty have a large resonpalnllity.
While recognizing this fact, We can
rot but endorse some portions Of the
letter of DR.. Louis J. Bristow con-
tanned elsewhere in this issue.
It seems entirely inadvisaole to US
20 order the churches closed a2d the
schools closed when every other en-
terprise is teing run vide open. As
dated in the letter referred to. there
are no buildings in the city better
ventilated than the churches, to which
we may add, the schools. About
+Eenty to twenty-five pupils are IN
room in the school buildings. These
are kept warm and comfortable. But
it is decreed to be dangerous to the
public health that they so assemble.
At the same time fifty and hundred
people are allowed to be in store
room at one and the same time.
Twenty people may be in doctors
Office, or in a drug store, IN hote'
lobby, a Greek restaurant, or in any
place except a church or the school
,>xoom. A hundred people work IN the
F5inning room of cotton mill IN
4uper-heated air. None of these
Z assemblies threaten the public
health.
We contend that entirely too much
authority is given to the local boards
of health. They may be professional
men, but mostly professional men IN
such matters are professional cranks,
and professionally inconsistent in
matters of this kind. The schools in
Abbeville suffered in their standing
last year considerably on account of
the fact that they were closed for
several weeks. There was an cpl
demic then which was producing fatal
results in many cases, and, therefore,
there was more excuse for the orders
khan there can be this year. There
are many pupils in the schools who
wish to enter colleges and universl-
ties this year and in order to do so,
they must complete the assigned
courses. Stopping the schools for
week or two means more lost time
than the schools are stopped, because
every sensible person knows that it
takes equally as much time as that
lost to get the machinery to running
again.
In view of the fact that the disease
now reported as Influenza is of mild
form, and in view of the opinion OF
others than the members Of the board
of health, that only a few of the cases
are anything more than bad colds or
old time grippe, as it is called, and
in view of the fact there is no more
of it, nor of the resulting pneumonia,
than we have been accustomed to
have at this season of the year. in
other years than last year, it seems
to us that there is no necessity for
the closing Of the schools on account
ef the disease, unless perhaps a more
virulent type of It should show itself.
1t may be important that the
Aehurches be opened, but it is more
Imtortant that the schools be not In
terrupted in their work. People may
pray at home IL their closets, but the
teacher cannot do his or her work
there.
