PAGE SIX HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, JUNE 30, 1927. WATER SUPPLIES AND TYPHOID From State Board of Health. A recent epidemic of typhoid fever in a small city of eastern Oregon as caused by a break in a defective pipe-line. This should serve as vmnir.g to city oiHcials throughout this state to take immediate steps to survey their water systems and make such changes as will insure safe wa ter for the communities which they serve. It is the sworn duty of every city omcial to guard the health of the community and in doing this he must see that the people have a safe water supply. When the public water sup plies are not properly protected, we are likely to find typhoid fever prev alent. V, atr-borne typhoid is abso lutely preventable and therefore ab solutely inexcusable. City water supplies can be rendered Dae by chemical purification and ni tration. By these methods, any com munity can assure itself of a safe water supply at a very moderate cost. tor the small village using a natur ally stored supply the essential safe guard of chlorination can be secured al a cost of less than ten cents per capita per year. For those who are unfortunate enough to live in com munities where the water supply is not properly protected, safety can be assured by boiling the water before it 15 used for drinking. Similarly in all communities, milk should be boil ed or pasteurized, for there is no safe raw milk any more than there is safe untreated water. The typhoid danger that exists in summer homes, tourist camps and picnic grounds is due to primitive methods of sanitation and sewage disposal. This danger is easy to un derstand for typhoid fever is an in testinal disease and countless mil lions of germs are present in the ex cretion of patients and carriers. From the excretions the germs may be car ried either directly or indirectly by flies, lingers, etc., to food, water or milk, which if consumed, may cause typhoid fever. Finally for those who live or travel in regions where sani tation is still primitive, immuniza tion by the use of anti-typhoid vac cine, is a process which repeated ev ery five years will, in the vast ma jority of instances, protect against infection with this disease. Purification of water supplies, pas teurization of milk supplies and the use of typhoid vaccine have done much to reduce the incidence of ty phoid, and when generally applied to every community in this state will make it possible to eradicate typhoid fever which now costs the state about $340,000 annually. More Men Than Women "Flunked" Out at U. 0. University of Oregon, Eugene, June 27. One hundred forty-nine students "flunked" out of the University of Oregon during the school year 1926 27, it was revealed in figures an nounced today at the registrar's office. A weeding process of the first two terms of the year had so reduced the number of academic laggards that in the spring term just ended the "flunk ers" numbered less than half those of the fall term. Spring term flunks numbered 30 25 men and 5 women. Seventeen men and one woman failed to make the five hours required for freshmen or seven hours required for members of the three upper classes. Five men and three women were dropped under the 17-hour rule imposed on probation ers, and three men and one woman were flunked because of failure to meet special requirements imposed by the scholastic committee in their individual cases. The year's figures show a decided advantge for women students. Of the 149 who flunked out, there were 124 men and 25 women. This ratio was approximated in each of the terms. Illustrating the drop in the number of flunks as the year progressed, the fol lowing figures are given: Fall term, 65 flunks; winter term 65; spring term, 30.
