Health Methods
Show Advance

One OF the anomalies Of modern
lie to the average man is that in
spite Of depression years, which re-
duced millions OF persons TO an
economic order OF want and misery,
the health record for this country
has improved steadily each year,
When we compare death rates
today with those OF Is years ago,
we are aStounded at the progress
made in preserving life and health.
The general rate for the city OF
Detroit for the year 1888 has been
set Professionally at rs per thou
sand population. This is the. low
est rate ever recorded for this city
and one OF the lowest rates ever
recorded anywhere in the world.
Compare this with the rate of 1874
for the year 1918 and it will be
seen readily that there are thou
sands OF persons alive today who
would have died had the rate of
Is years ago prevailed during the
Intervening period.
The control OF communicable d.
seases is largely RESPONSIBLE for
the decrease in deaths. The tuber-
culosis death rate has been cut
IN half and this last wear has seen
a reduction from 568 in 1887 to
47s for 1898
