Pioneer County Gives
Lesson in Wider Roads

Way back in 1908 Wayne county,
Mich, built the first stretch Of i'm
proved road. Little realizing that In
few years traffic would have in
creased many, many times, by virtue
of Detroit's becoming the center of
the automobile industry, the authori-
ties built only narrow strip at first.
Soon, however, this pioneer county
recognized the need of wider roads
to handle increased traffic efficiently,
and began building all its new pave
ments wider. To prevent congestion
on the earlier strips of road, it wild
ened the old pavements by adding new
strips at the side.
Now, as traffic in all parts of the
country increases with the extension
of paved roads and the increase in
motor vehicles, other vicinities are
rapidly recognizing the need of build
Ing wider road pavements and widen
ing old ones which are no longer ade-
auate to traffic demands. Those in
charge Of road building have come to
realize that only by having wider
roads can they have highways safe for
modern heavy travel They realize
that congested traffic on narrow roads
must necessarily result in more accl-
dents and greater loss of life and
property.

POISONING FROM HAIR
DYES

a LII Of mans (and especially wom-
a an's) efforts to be more beau
tiful are accompanied by danger.
have told you about the danger Of
lead poisoning from face powders; Of
possible suffocation of infants from
talcum powders; and Of the irritating
effect on the skin of some forms OF
rouge. Hair dyes, like all other arti-
fetal beauty improyers, are not free
from danger. In a recent issue of the
British Medical Journal, a number of
cases Of poisoning from the use Of
hair dyes are reported. One man, the
proprietor of a hair-dressing estab-
lishment, came to his doctor for ex-
animation. He felt i'll and weak; his
face was gray and blotchy; his eyes
were watery and bloodshot; his tongue
and gums were swollen; he was
nauseated and had no appetite; and
he had severe pain In his stomach and
between his shoulders. He said that
he applied hair dye for his customers,
and was exposed all day to the fumes
from the dyes. Analysis of the hair
dyes which he used showed that they
contained lead and arsenic.
These substances are also frequent
II found in the dyes used for staining
furs. They have an irritating effect
on the skin, often causing an eruption
on the necks of women, especially
during the fall and winter months
when fur3 are most worn.
The possibility Of poisoning from
hair dyes has led to the passage Of
laws In several states forbidding the
use Of lead. arsenic or any other in
furious substance in any hair dye
which Is offered for sale.
Be as beautiful as you can but don't
risk your life or your health. If you
regard gray hair as a crown Of honor
and don't mind the increasing white
ness of your locks. then you don't
need to worry about any possibility OF
poisoning. But If you can't endure
the natural results of age and feel that
you must cover up the marks Of time,
do 1t with some preparation that will
restore the color of your youth with
out doing any harm to your body.
Anyway. If you eat simple and cas-
lily digested foods, drink plenty of
pure water, exercise every day, and
sleep. in the open air. you will have
so much natural color in your cheeks
that you won't care whether you have
any on top of your head or not. The
coloring which nature uses is MOI
only harmless, but it is also much
more beautiful and attractive thar
anything you can buy in bottle.

HALF A CENTURY OF
PUBLIC HEALTH

OUR present ideas about health and
~ the prevention of disease are
about fit years old. While the first
state health department In this coun-
try was organized in Massachusetts in
1869, most of the state health depart
ments and many of the larger city de-
partments were organized In the early
70s. Before that time the prevention
of disease and the preservation of
health was largely left to the individ-
ual, just as a hundred years ago. even
in our large cities, the prevention and
suppression of fires was in the hands
of volunteer fire departments.
Public health is about fifty years old
in the United States What has it
accomplished and are the results of
sufficient value to justify the expense7
In the first ten years, from 1880 to
1890, the germs OF pneumonia, typhoid
fever, malaria, tuberculosis, Asiatic
cholera, erysipelas. diphtheria, tetanus
or lockjaw, and meningitis were dis
covered. Since that time there have
been added the germs of bubonic
plague, dysentery, syphilis, whooping
cough, yellow fever, and scarlet fever
These discoveries led to the purifica-
ton of water and milk supplies with
a tremendous reduction In typhoid
fever, dysentery, and other diseases
carried by water; to the control of
diseases carried by insects, such as
yellow fever, bubonic plague and ma
laria; to the discovery Of diphtheria
antitoxin, by which the number OF
deaths from this disease have been
greatly reduced.
The result has been an enormous re-
duction in the death rate all over the
country. In 1880, AZ years ago, the
average death rate for the United
States was nearly 20 per 1000 each
year. In 1922, it was only IL, about
one.half the previous rate. a saving
of eight deaths per 1000 every year.
or of over 100000 a year for the en-
tire country. In 1902, there were 81
deaths per 100000 In the United
States from typhoid fever alone. To-
day, thel- are only seven, a reduc-
ton of nearly four-fifths. In 1908, the
death rate from tuberculosis in this
country was 1874 out of every 100000.
In 1922, the death rate was 97--about
one-haIf what 1t had been 20 years
before.
And tile fight against disease is only
beginning. Enough has been accom-
plished IL the last so years. in actual
results, to justify every cent of money

CONGESTION BIG

discussed highway finance. advocating
that all motor vehicle fees should be
devoted to highway purposes, and that
the state should be the sole motor
vehicle taxing body.
'SThe saving in cost of operation to
| the motor vehicle user who travels
over an improved highway is more
than enough to maintain the highway"
said Brosseau, 80 that in effect the
user who agrees to maintain it re
duces his expenses enough when he
travels over an improved highway so
that it doesn't cost him cent"
On this basis, which was supported
by the experience of North Carolina
and other states, the speaker argued,
the motor vehicle should pay for all
highway maintenance, and in some
cases, where 1t was no undue burden,
should also pay part Of the construc-
ton cost.
"All special taxes on automobile
users" he said, SHOULD be devoted to
highway purposes whether for main
tenance, reconstruction or construction
-and expended under the supervision
of the state highway department. The
state should be the sole taxing
agency"
