From the hunter, the fisherman and the rude agriculturist, man has evol- are thousands of occupations to-day in place of the few primitive ones but still the majority of these centre a- bout the fulfillment of the primary necessities feeding and clothing man- kind. It has become impossible for the laborer to work under the conditions which originally obtained. Besides the fields and forests we have mine, mill and mart. Man has progressed mentally to a remarkable degree but we cannot say that of his physical development. However, his requirements are much the same as those of our remote an- cestors, Sunlight, fresh air, pure wat- er and physical exercise are absolute- ly essential to the maintenance of health. If the ‘conditions under which men and women labor do not make this possible they are detrimental to the individual and to society at large, for upon the health of its people de- pends the ultimate future of any ma- tion.
