Following is a paper read by Dr. F. B. Kistner before the Morrow County School Board Convention, at Heppner, Dec. 12, 1908: The subject given to me ia one of great imooftance. yet one that has received very little attention at these gathering in the past, it 1 can create enoriKn in terest that this nubj"ct will be tfiven a place on the program next year, to be presented by one more able than myself, I shall teel repaid for my effor ts. Preventive medicine is one of the most important, if not the moat important brunch of medical science. It tins no dramatic side such s surgery ; the exe cution of its principals are as humdrum as wash day, or putting up the tureens to keep away the summer insects; vet its results are far reiching a"d of the greatest importande. It enabled the Japsn-f-e to keep their isnks full and their hoKpia's en.ptv 1 n-int; a most brilliant military ca'iipaijrti. It has made possible the litri nu of the Panama Canal ; and an a-my of men is working in the canal zone p'actiraily immune to the virulent tiest u Iiich ilecimate and dvitaliz the na'iv.-s on hjili sides Tin-se things are nadr p-ii-i'til tlir'High c()(i) lete an ! thorough isolation of all sick, the intelligent use of a liitle tri'W rp-iito netting uml some petr -o'entn ; the providing of proper drainage and stetile foi'd and d'inking W'iter. There ia no h ir occti't r mystic abont it. I s suc i'eyq depend-! noon the p-eepts of C;:a mon cleanliness and decney. There is a i opuUr misconception in regard to some of the con'agious dis eases. For instanoe, tneaRles, whoop ing congh an'l mumps are looked upon hs r.t but slight importance, a necessary evil : and one which they would have and i be done with as soon as possible. Con j seqnently there is great negligence i j preventing the spread of thes9 diseases. As such, they are rarely rami, dui iney have a mortalitv and sometimes disas trous results follow their complications. Following any one of them, we may have collapse of the lunge or a catarrhal pneumonia, which is vrry fatal in young children and the aged. Meailes and whooping cough frequently lay the foun dation for tuberculosis, abd many a case of chronic inflammation of tbe middle ev is the result of a mild attack of measle-i. In our own small community we have a stunt young man who is a -iiwst totally blind as a result of whoop ing cough. For these reasons it. is nec essary to prevent I lie spread of diseases. Due to the fact that medical aid is not necessary in a majority ot the cases, they are not brought to the attention of the County Board of he dth and very littleis done to prevent their spread. There is no doubt but that mild caes of diphtheria ami scarlet fever exist which do not receive medical attention throughout the entire course of the dis ease. These caes iu many instances attend school betore thi danger of spreading the disease is past. As a re sult thev are the innocent carriers of wh ttever disease they have. Many parents are exceedingly careless regardirrg the health of their children and overlook practically evryhing ex cept when attended by such symptoms as to cause alarm. It is the exceptional parent thst isolates every ease of -ore throat in his family until satisfied it is not dipb'heria, while it is the ususl cus tom to rexitrd every throat affection a of no consequence until marked evidence of every illness comes on For this rea son a mild cus of diphtheria may go ahso'utely nixparantined and pncJical ly untreated tnroughoutits entire course, all the while spreading 'he contagioo. The same is true of small-box, scarlet fever and chicken pox. The meari8 to check the spread must evidently he rlirecteil toward an early detection of the di-. ise. Of necessity a great deal of thi devolves upon the teacher, who should nuke an inspection of tier pupils a daily toniine habit. No child who presents any of the evidences of an acute ihnens should be Hllowed to remain i i school. Dining the preva lence of any contagion or in any case in which the teacher has anv mi picion l contagion, the r.ther chi'dren of the fam ily slK'iild he kept out and the matter reported to the school biard at once. The board can investigate t i determine whether a uuara' line m necessary. Utile io. Oregon .State P.omd of Health : ' ".No person ha'l be admitted into any 1 public, parochial, or private school, or college or S i uiay scho' l. from any house or hni'ilin r in which has recently occurred a case of dangerous communi cable disease, 'vith'iiU lirst presenting a certificate, s gned y a repntabl" physi cian, that nil 'Linger of communicating such disease is past."' In seve-al w ars, service County Hf.al.h r flirer I have never yet been asked for a certificate of readmission to school excep' i;i the cities i.l Heppner and Hardri an. Th violation of this rnle strikes at thn ve-y essence of qu.r antiiie regulation. For, what assurance have yon that the child coming from an infected home ia not carrying his hsir and cloth'ng and throat full of mfection? Cause and effect are widely separated in point of time and distancj in some cases, but the results are just as certain as that harvest will follow seeding. The epidemic of diphtheria which occutrrd io Heppner during tbe past fe months can be traced directly to one coivabs- cent coming from a 'neighboring ntnte win in hud not been subjected to 'jum antine regulations. District I'.Liards should insist that no j child from a home in which there ban existed a case oi contagious disease shall be admitted to scho d until he present :t written statement from the County o City Board of Health that there is no danger of his carrying contagion. Rule 24, Oregon State Board of Health : "It shall be the duty of all school boards in all the districts of whatever class in the State of Oregon, to prohibit the entrance into any of the pub I c schools of the State, of all childreu not previously vaccinated (the evident- of which is shown bv the scar), without proper vaccination ; and it shulh be the du'y of the teacher or teachers in any of the public schools of tiie State ai Oregon to satisfy themselves that such order h hh been properly enforced, the evidence being a scar, or by a certificate of vucci nation signed by a reputable pi ysician." It is the duty of District Boards to see that teachers enforce this ruling. That it is neglected in a majority of the dis tricts is plainly indicated by the number of school chi.dren who apply for vacci nation during every small-pox scare. At the beginning of each school year and at any time required bv the County or City Boards of Health the district hoards should make personal inspection of the school premises and report in writing the condition of the water sup ply and the ont-building. I do not offer these surges ions as a per fect set of rules with the exception of the rules that I have vuoted lioni the State Board of Heal h. These rules a-e imperative. The rest of them are sim ply in tru for m of suggestion. .My ob ject is to get the District Boards to work together with the r.Jrjet of f mutilating a set of rillts for the governing of health regulations in the several schi.ol dis tricts tiiroughout the County.
