PAGE THREE Typhoid an Index of Community Intelligence (Oregon State Board of (health) How would you measure th« intelli gence of the community in which you live? Would your measuring stick be the number of schools, or the number of churches, or the miles of paved streets found within its boundary? Or would it be the degree of practical ap plication of the laws of sanitary sci ence? The sanitarian’s yardstick is the number of cases of preventable communicable diseases which exist in the community. Cleanliness is next to godliness; they are one an J insep arable. Freedom from infection and from pestilence gives rise to a healthy, vigorous community, which ia further reflected in. an increased number of schools, churches and other civic pro jects. Typhoid fever ia a filth borne dis ease. It is commonly spread by the contamination of food, particularly milk;»and by contamination of water. It may also be fly borne, or transmit ted through soiled linen* or direct contact. Where the community in telligence level is low, the typhoid fe ver rate is high. The state of Oregon * a whole ha* shown a marked de- ■rease in the number of cases and deaths from this disease in the past five years. Thia is evidenced by the following table: Typhoid Fever in Oregon 1928-32 Year Case* Deaths 1928 189 27 1929 140 25 1930 177 18 1931 166 21 1932 134 16 Typhoid fever ia a preventable dis- ease, and a* euch the 134 caaes and 16 ieaths in the past year are a severe indictment upon the intelligence of the oeople of Oreg >n. We know that milk and water are the common vehicles for typhoid infection. What have we dine, what has your community done to make both of these necessities of life pure, and free from disease germs? What has your community done in the protection of its food sup What is ply from the filth of flies? the sanitary intelligence of your com munity? The answer is in the num ber of cases and deaths of typhoid found among your citizens. # Let us apply our knowledge of san- tation and rid Oregon of typhoid fe- ’•r. Let us begin our long delayed projects of sewage disposal. Our ivers, our lakes and our well« have lecome grossly polluted because we have allowed filth to enter them. It ia not too late to reclaim them and to retqrn t*lem to a cleanliness which existed before your community was fettled. Low cost of materials, an 'abundant and eager supply of labor, and availability of financial help are aH conspiring to make properly con structed sewage disposal plants with- n the readh of every community. Rid your community of typhoid fever. Protect your milk supplies. Insist upon cleanliness not only of the bam, the milk house, or of the milk plant, out also a scrupulous cleanliness of -he person of all those who engage in the production and distribution of the milk. Remember that properly pas teurized milk is the only safeguard .gainst milk borne typhoid. Community intelligence is but the sum total of individual intelligence. By your own observance of the laws of sanitation you can materially aid in further decreasing the typhoid fe ver rate in your community and in this state. Cool as Spring • • . Smart as Fall . . .

PL NM V ÇQ; 332 First Street, Coquille, Oregon Elmer Wilson Protests Elmer Wilson, of Brewster valley, wa* in the Sentinel office Tuesday morning, and said he was the driver of the milk truck referred to in last Friday’s issue of the Sentinel. He objected to the expression “hogging the road” which wa* used. We did not say he wa« a “road hog," which implies that a driver is using more than his half of the road. But what we did object wa* a driver's attitude that everyone must get out of a truck’* way. When this writer’s car met Mr. Wilson'« truck a couple of week* agi at a narrow bridge where two cars could not possibly pass, it was to us a case of stop or be hit— and we stopped. The truck did not slow up at all. Mr.Wilson says he would have gone off the bridge if necessary to avoid hitting us, but, of course, we did not know that. Further he say« his brakes had been working perfectly before and also later, but they did not work when he tried them at the narrow bridge. A due regard for the rights ol others is all anyone can expect from the drivers of cars he meets, and we do not yet feel that Mr. Wilson gave this proper consideration when he drove at the speed he did, and could not stop. No matter if he is careful to give half the road, as he claims he alway« does, it does not alter the feeling ex pressed by those who are not as fa Nebraska Picnic miliar a* he is with that narrow coun The tenth annual Nebraska Picnic ty road, that they are alway* uneasy will be. held in the City Park (south when meeting that milk truck. edge of town on highway), Sunday, Sentenced to Six Months August 6th, at Corvallis.
