There has been done from this Department all that we could do under existing condi tions for the relief and prevention of these dread diseases, Much of the nurse's time has been occupied witn visitB to this class of Datients who could not for various reasons be sent to the Hospital. The larger part of the Health Of ficer's time for the past month has bpen spent doing the duties of 'city pnysician, there being many calls ev ery day. Every effort has been us ed to instruct the public In the means 01 prevention of pneumonia and otli er respiratory diseases, instructions In the homes to parents ha been giv en, to the schools and to the public in general tnorough the papers by means of health articles when time could be obtained for writinir them. There have been very few cases of tne acute contagious diseases other then measles and German measles of wnicn there has been an abundance. A great many of the cases of pneu moniahave been seen In patients who first had measles, the pneumonia fol lowing as a complication. A good many times during the pastmonth Ii.k great heed of a contagious Ward to wnich these patients mav be tak en has been seen and felt, fin often the conditions at home are such that it is a matter of Impossibility to hav a measles case so cared for that pneumonia will not be a complication More than one death has occurred In our midst within the last few weeks that seemed almost directly due to tho squalid, dirty surroundings and tlm absolute ignorance of those In euro of the patients. Schools Tho medical work in the schools is going nicely, Before the holidays be gan the students as a whole were In fine shape with possible exceptions ot sinau outbreaks or cnickenpox and uerman measles. Since the holidays began the school nurses have been doinu some srood 1 work following up those reported ab sent from school just befora Christ inas and in looking up defectives and have suceeeded in a number of cases m having children go to the hos pital during tlienu holidays ajid have defective conditions treated. General Sanitary Conditions We fear sanitary conditions generaK ly would hot appear to very good ad vantage if the winter weather should abate and the ice all be melted. The sanitary inspections show that nui sances exist all over the city as, stop ped, frozen and burst toilets, frozen water pipes, sinks etc and that be cause, of the bad weather garbage and trash has not been disposed of as ii snouia ie; Just along this line wo want to particularly call the attention of the Board to some housing condl- I tiona There are a few places in the ' city w hich are now used as tenements ! which positively should not be per- iiiineu ro nouse numan beings. The writer has seen more of the8fce(5ndi4 tions during December than during iny two months prior to this time and the weather conditions forcing the poor people to shut themselves in more closely has impressed their con ditions and surroundings on him most : forcibly. Home of these places are badly lighted, very badly ventilated, poorly heated or having no heat at all. dirty, filthy, filled with foul odors, toilet facilities of the poorest and in some Instances lucking for a week or more at a time. J'eople exist in these conditions, a whole family of four to six persons in two rooms, where they cook, eat and sleep. There .should be a decided move ment started for bettering these con ditions. The works of the Associated Charities, Salvation Army. "Out side Poor" funds etc of the city are all right and are doing creditable things, but there should be some reg ulations aimed at tne owners of tene- ments of this class, who allow these conditions to exist. If there are regu-: latlons now among the city ordinances, j tiicy should be rigidly enforced. ! Foods and Food Handlers I There has been prepared an ordi- nance land by the date on which this report is read will have been 1 enacted) pertaining to all food hand-j ling establishments requiring them to ; be clean and sanitary and that all ' food handlers should undergo a phy- i sical examination and bo declared free j from 'uny contagious or infections dis- i ease before being permitted to work in any pluce where thoy will come in j contact with food or drink. ; The necessary literature and instru- 1 tions concerning this Ordinance are now being gotten out and tho strict enforcement of this ordinance and all its regulations will begin at once. , Water Shed In.oetlou j Wo are sorry to have to report that a complete inspection of the two sheds supplying water for the city was not made during the last qunrter of 1917. This work was partially done early In the quarter and changes in our force of Inspectors and later the In Clement weather has made it impos sible to have it completed. So far ns the actual value of water shed in spections go, if there is any particular time when it is less Important than al others, it is possibly d,uring winter months. Still a complete inspection must be made every three months and , we hope to have a competent inspec tor on this work for the first quar terly inspection of 1918 very soon. The Laboratory analysis of the city water bothNn analyzed here and as checked hythe State Laboratory , shows it to begood. ! j Annul Report Ilecauso of the fact that our of- flee does not have complete records 1 of all of the transactions of the de ' partment. it is impossible to get out an i annual report which would be nt all full or very intelligible. It is custom ary for all yearly reports concerning healih matters and Vital Statistics 10 correspond with the Calendar year., nnd such a report may be expected at this time. Tint because of the fact, that our records nre not st all complete for the tirst few months of' 1017 we hope you will pardon our omitting an ! annual report, at th's time.
