A Correspondent's View on tho Ilxlntlng
j:plilnil.
Editor IIkrald : Is it truo that tliero is
nstato law governing tho length of time
bodies dying of contagious diseases may be
kept? I havo heard that thero is. If so wo
ought to know it and enforce it. When
Shenandoah was visited by an epidemic of
small pox most rigorous measures were taken
to prevent its spread and to stamp it out
altogether. If a slnglo cafe of small pox
should recur it would, no doubt, bo sufficient
to arouse the whole community. Yet ovory
Intelligent person Jinows there is less to be
feared from an epidemic of small pox than
from one of scarlet fevor and diphtheria.
Then why is it that tliore is so much apathy
and carelessness lu tho presence of so much
danger? I would bo ono of tho last to reflect
upon our physicians and ministers, but nro
they wholly blameless in this matter? Wo
havo had numerous cases of scarlet fever and
diphtheria ih our midst for tho past two or
threo months, yet public Invitations havo
been given to attend tho funerals of vic
tims of theso dread diseases without a word
of warning. Unconcerned and unsuspecting
friends and neighbors have attended such
funerals and doubtless done much to spread
the germs of tho plague, and we aro now
reaping tho harvest. Your conespondent
hit tho nail squarely on tho head tho other
day when ho wroto "it is timo for reason and
not sentiment to rule." To keep quiet in
order to keep down fears is much liko keep
ing silent when a flro breaks out in a tindor
box lest tho neighbors ho aroused. Wo need,
as a permanent institution, a Board of
Health, to which all cases of contagious dis
caso should be promptly reported, and
to bo responsible for such regulations
as would effectually prevent their
needless spread. This would releaso our
physicians, ministers and undertakers from
tho individual responsibility of enforcing
precautions which, to tho ignorant, might
seem to bo arbitrary and whimsical. May
we not hope that thoy will movo in the mat
ter? It require civil authority to enforco
such measures as aro needful to protect a
community against itself when the com
munity is made up of sucli a mixed class as
this. If tho consequences of carelessness and
ignoranco were limited to the guilty it would
not matter so much to tho rest but, as is often
tho case, tho innocent suffer while the guilty
escape. Another thing which ought to have
been dono before this is tho closing of tho
primary schools. Instead of going mad over
the celebration of Columbus Day wo ought
to care for tho health of tho community.
Recent investigation has shown a smaller
number of bacteria in tho air of a well kept
sewer than in that of a poorly ventilated
sewer, and where is tho school room that is
not poorly ventilated? 1.

Carroll Johnson, has this year been assumed
by Mr. George II. Timmons, who, in addition
to tho usual songs and dances accompanying
tho part, add, an additional strength by
some really good harp playing, that certainly
seems to bo in keeping with the character of
tho play."
