Brownsville herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1910-current, 1931-07-30

How differently would we build our cities of today
had we but been able to forsee yesterday what today
would bringl
Had the founders Of the city Of Brownsville, for ex-
ample, been able to visualize the Brownsville of 1881, a
city Of 25, 1000 inhabitants, capital city of a new empire,
would they not have laid out the streets of the city just a
little wider2
Cost of land in those DAYS was no object, and on the
other hand, neither was there any particular object in
having wide streets in those days when the automobile
was unknown and probably three buggies on what is now
Elizabeth st. would have constituted a crowd.
We are sure that were the city OF Brownsville being
laid out today as a new city, with the certainty that 10000
people would inhabit It, several things about the arrange
ment Of the city would be materially changed.
OF course, that cannot be.
We must take Brownsville as It is today.
However, because we must perforce take the city as 1t
Is today, we are in no ways bounds not to plan for the
future, trying as best we may to remedy conditions for
which neither we Of the present nor they Of the past are
In any way to blame.
City zoning plan prepared by members of the city
zoning commission ably assisted by Mai. A. F. Wood, city
planrinr expert. Il The step in the right direction which
will help the Brownsville Of the future to avoid the mis-
takes of the past

Editor, Journal Of the American Medical
Association. and or Hygcla.

Whereas the medicine OF a pre-
yious era concerned itself largely
with disease and the control or dis
ease by drugs. modern medicine
gives as much attention 20 diet as to
any other single factor IN the con-
troll OF the human body. Modern
medicine is concerned with appe-
tite and with digestion. IL has learn
ed to control many diseases through
control OF the dict and TO influence
the appetite and the lody structure
by the use OF foods properly pre-
pared.
In addition to al Of the attri-
butes OF foods that have been men
toned, there comes finally the
question OF food poisoning and food
infection. The development OF
transportation In the handling or
food has brought problems OF food
contamination that are OF the
greatest Importance IN relationship
to health and disease.
Previous to the publication OF
Upton Sinclair's book, The jun
gle" but little attention was given
10 the cleanliness or food Previous
to the time when 1t became realized
that typhoid fever, dysentery and
similar infections were spread by
contaminated food, little attention
was given 70 sanitary control. IN
deed, there used TO be a proverh
to the effect that everyone had To
eat a peck or dirt in order to be
civilized. Everyone can remember
when milk used to be eft in q
bucket at the family door sep, when
unwrapped bread was tossed from
the bakery to the wagon and from
the wagon TO the grocery clerk,
when vegetables were polished with
saliva and % dirty towel Our point
o. view, IL can be seen, has changed
N regard 20 food cleanliness. Now
rdays bread is baked untouched BY
Imam hands. wrapped in sterlized
wrappers. and delivered to the pur-
chaser In the original wrapper.
Milk Is collected undeF sanitary
conditions, transported with refrig-
GRAFTON, p~aSteurized and delivered
20 the purchaser in a bottle that
has been boiled and sealed with
bacteriologic cleanliness.
When anyone complains OF the
increased cost OF food today, he
should be reminded OF the increas-
ing fastid.ousness OF civilized man
In relationship to food cleanliness.
Even fruits and VEGETABLES are to-
day thoroughly washed and wrap
ped in individual wrappers before
delivered.

Elmer Twitchell on the Slump In
the Wild Animal Trade.
"Hagenbeck's geological Gardens,
greatest distributor Of wild animals,
Is in serious financial difficulties as
a result OF the business slump. MIR.
Hagenbeck says there IL practically
no market at present-"-News item.
Dear MFR. Hagenbeck:
I am sorry to hear that condi-
tons In the wild animal business
are bad, too. Personally I do not
need any wild animals Just at pres
ent or I should be glad to give you
q little order to help out. 7 am
still getting along with the old lion
I bought three years ago. All the
gloss has w0Tn off and 1t is not
very smart looking, but like SO many
other wild animal fanciers, / am
putting off buying q new lion until
things take q turn for the better.
OF course. as I tell all my neigh
boris. now is the time to buy lions
and tigers If they want TO get them
at bargain levels. Never has there
been a time, / tell them, when you
could get so much lion for so little
cash. This Is the day OF big lion
values. III I had the money I would
buy a supply OF lions from you right
now for investment purposes. The
man or woman who buys a lion now
and puts il away and forgets II
will profit handsomely. All the buy
er need do is show a little patience
which is also all the lion has TO do
I do not want to butt In on your
business. MIR. Hagenbeck, but have
you thought OF boosting sales by an
International Wildcat Day or q Buy
a Dromedary Camel Week?
An AVN and Emu Week woul'
go big In America, especially among
crossword puzzle addicts, or ~-,i
might try something In the lira
of slogans like "Hippos for Happi-
neSs!" Reach for an Eland Tnstee 4
OF a CAMEL" or 'You Owe You
Family a Thompson Gazellel" I have
always felt a great market could
be created for chirapanzees on the
claim they would keep moths out
or the clothes closet. and I am sure
you could boost your yak sales BY
guaranteeing they keep q man nom
chalent.
Well. anyhow, keep a stiff upper
lip. Mr.. Hagenbeck, and don't let
anybody tell you the buying public
Is never going to want any elephants,
rhinOs, hartsbeests. giraffes or
