INTERESTING REPORT MADE BY
CHAIRMAN OF COMMITTEE ON
LEGISLATION W0MAN'S CLUB

At the recent meeting of the Polk
County Federation of Woman's Clubs,
held at Auburndale, an interesting re-
port was submitted by Mrs. Howard
r. Maxwell of Lakeland, chairman OF
the legislative committee, as follows:
At the February meeting of the
Polk county commissioners the ques.
ton of appropriating $4,000 for the
formation of Polk county health
unit was lost.
More than $4O,OGO,00O for buildings
in Florida in the year 1921 is the re-
suit of the records as compiled at
Jacksonville. , would like to recon-,
mend that the coming system be car
ried out in every town in Polk county
where building is going on and the
Woman's Club be behind the move.
mcnt:
l. Zoning prevents too great n con-
centration of population in limited
areas.
2. The protecting of residential
districts from invasion by industrial
establishments.
3. The development of property for
the purpose for which it is naturally
best adapted.
a. There are three kinds of zones:
industrial, commercial, and residen
tial. A coming system provides suit
able places for factories stores anG
homes.
5. Zoning or city planning insures
proper circulation of light and air,
limits the heights of buildings and
areas TO be covered, also insures uni
form building lines on streets.
The Federation Bureau of Educa-
ton recommends a pamphlet which
teaches health through formation Of
concrete health habits rather than by
means of abstract theories. Health
experts and teachers have gotten our
this program and many elementary
schools of the country are using it.
If Polk county schools wish to avail
themselves CT this opportunity they
can write to the Federal Bureau OF
Education.
