REFRAIN FROM SPITTING "" ' The barbaric tribes of east equatorial Africa spit when they meet and spit when they part. In binding a bargain and before shaking hands custom requires that they be spit up on first They size jip a man on his ability to spit copiously. These customs account to a certain extent for the ease with which disease attacks the savage tribes. Whole tribes have 3tf times been almost exterminated by infections. On the ofh'er hand, the Chinese would rather be beaten than tread ilie'ground upon which some one had expectorated. The ancient Chinese civilization determined this to be a wise pro esckire. It is true that promiscuous spitting is a relic of bar tafism and is a menace to civilization. Promiscuous spitting is prohibited to prevent disease and preserve decency. While the danger to health from such spitting has been exaggerated neverthless danger exists. The Xiea and regulations of the Oregon State Board of Health pWvide: "Spitting on the floor of public buildings, or upon platforms or any part of any railroad or trolley car or ferry ioat or any other public conveyance is forbidden." - . You are directly responsible for your diet, sleep, rest 3ud personal cleanliness; in short, personal hygiene, and to a, considerable extent, communicable disease. Disease can not be curbed unless everyone of us is decent enough to do jhis part to safeguard others. We are constantly being attack ed by germs. A person with influenza or a cold expector ates promiscuously. The sputum dries up and the germs are Mown around in the dust. This dust is inhaled and the in fection is transferred to other victims. The germ of tu nercuiosis may oe inhaled irom sprayed moist sputum or ..-Irom dried sputum. Inasmuch as the germs of a communicable disease may .' he harbored in the respiratory tract, mouth, nose and throat "'Jfjscharges, they should not be cast promiscuously in public places. Care on the part of the tuberculous is necessary in - order to prevent spreading the infection to others. The "safest person in the world is a graduate-from a tuberculosis sanitarium who has learned the lesson of protecting others. Everyone in a potential disease carrier. Spitting is a menace ai)d, a defiance to the law of sanitation. ...... Build up your bodily resistance by plenty of sleep, mod- erate eating, regular exercise and lots of .fresh air. l'reserve '"the purity of your community by refraining from spitting. Fancy Crocera THE GREAT INSANITY General Manager William E. Mallalieu of the National -Boftrd of Fire Underwriters, was recently invited to talk to trie" National Fire Waste. Council. Commenting on his re , marks, the Insurance Field said he handed them an idea that illuminated the heavens of financial economy like an aurora boftalis. "Imagine," said he, "the situation if the eminent ' Secretary of the Treasury, as the representative of the American people, started each day's work by causing to be ,'lhrown Into the bottomless reaches of the Atlantic Ocean ,. .forty-one living persons and a load of gold pieces worth $1,- ouu.uuv, an amount, equivalent to mo per mem average oi our , national destruction by burning.
