Ut is an ideal wurlh striving for. Great progress has been mado in searchino; out the means of preventing disease but, as the director of, the Rwkcfeller Foundation said a few days ago, we ;ue hot- making practical use of our knowledge. Now comes Sir David C. Bruce, president of the British Association for the Advancement of Science and chairman of the gov erning board ol the Lister Institute of Preventive Medicine, strongly arguing the possibility of virtually eliminating disease in civilized lands. lie is credited with having' coii tiolled parasitic maladies in the British army during the Avar. Sir David declared, that "medicine in futuro must change its strategy. Instead of awaiting attack it must assume the offensive. It must no IcnjM-r bo said that 'the man was so sick he had to send for a doctor'." , The more the doctors accomplish along the lines imli- rated the better, but not all of the preventive work can bo left to them. They can discover the means' of controlling discaso and show the people- what is essential to be1 done in their own interest, but nothing will be done unless the people are willing to pay the price for improving, condi tions. Probably the money cost of getting rid or prevent able diseases would not be nearly as great mis that which we pay as a consequence of sickness. Sir David estimated the direct economic loss from this cause at !f7f0,0( 10,(100 annually in Knglund and ?:!,ooo,000,ooo in tlu United Slates. And in these countries, comparatively advanced in medi cine, sanitation and hygiene, the death rate constantly fails. One important duty thiil lies ahead is clearly indicated by such as Sir David and the Rockefeller Foundation. Small Hoy I want another hox plIlM for my mother like I got .Mr. and .Mrs. it. I.
