I have recently been making quite a study of municipal san itation and have come into pos session of valuable information relating thereto and must confess that 1 did not realize how very simple and inexpensive the whole proposition actually is until I had made this investigation. 1 his is a matter in which the city as a corporation and each individual member of the same, or in otjier words, e;.ch and every property owner or tenant, are cipiallv interested. The cilv gov eminent has a duty to perform in sale-guarding the health of its citizens and each of these citi zens has an ccpaal obligation in the premises in doing everything possible to prev ent disease and to preserve the healthlulness and consequently, the prosperity of the community. It is the duty of the city to :eep all of its streets and drains clean and free from eve-v oh ruction which might cause the1 collection of rubbish, filth r t.1gn.1nt water. It is also its duty to st-e to it lhat no private prop erty is allowed to remain in an unclean or unsanitaty condition. Ml meadows or other low places should be well drained and free course given to all surface water. I',ackards and stable lots should be kept clean and tidy and no breeding places for llics or mos piitocs permitted. More llies and mosquitoes can be bred in one week, around one back lot where stable manure and stagnant water are allowed to remain, and hereby pu into active operation .11 their death dealing mission oi spreading disease, than tire whole icighborhoiid can exterminate all umnicr. Typhoid and malaria travel in the wake of every common house lly ami mosquito and we people who have spent our lives strug gling for a livelihood, have only recently learned (his startling fact. It is a fact nevertheless and the public generally is rapid ly realizing the great importance of strict sanitation in this respect. All of us have confidence in our family physicians (at least we should have). Ask their opinion as to the correctness of my re marks regarding the deadly work of these filthy insects and be gov erned by their advice in making your homes and premises disease proof in so far as these agencies are concerned. If every family in High Point drank our pure city water only, and kept their premises in a strictly fly proof, mosquito proof and similar germ proof condition which can be so easily and inex pensively done, there would probably not be a case of typhoid fever, malarial fever, hook worm or like preventable diseases, the entire year. This would be alxut the most profitable investment any of us could make, notwith standing the fact it would enable our physicians to enjoy a vaca tion. With High Point's natural drainage, its splendid progressive and right-thinking citizenship, why should we not co-operate most heartily in bringing to pass 1 these profitable and delightful conditions, j It is my purpose to begin a (Continued to page two.)
