A \>r\ Good New Law.
The State Board of Health is distribut
ing to the school directors in the various
districts of the State copies of the law
passed by the Legislature last winter,
which giye« school directors supreme
authority to act as boards of health in
ease of the appearance of infectious or
contagious diseases in their respective
neighborhoods. By this act the direc
tors are empowered, not only to exclude
from the public schools any person
known to have been exposed to such dis
eases, but also to enter upon suspected
premises, either by themselves or by a
duly appointed agent, and to abate any
nuisance they may find there. The
work is made voluntary on their part,
but their authority, in cases they may
chooee to take up the duty, appears to
be absolute, subject only to approval by
the county court when they appoint a
health agent to work under their aus
pices. The law appears to be a very
good one, and to h?.ve the approval of
the State Board of Health. It is found
ed on correct principles, for the school
board in each township is the body best
adapted to undertake the prompt, deci
sive action required on the appearance
of a threatening disease. It is a body
already organized, composed of men
who are, or should be. familiar with the
persons and circumstances of most or all
the families in their districts, and its
members are. or should be, men of
enough intelligence to do this impor
tant work in the most effective way.
By their ready action, exerted in every
township on the first appearance of an
epidemic, they should be able to confine
it within very narrow limits, and quick
ly stamp it out.—Ex.
