WHY EPIDEMICS SPREAD
Dr. W. T. .MtConvIll, Secretary Board
of Health, Exhorts I 'incuts to
Obey (Jitarniitliiv U-nv to Check
Disease.
In order that we may Intelligently
apply preventive measures for tho
suppression of disease It Is absolute
ly essetlal that we havo tho hearty
co-operation of the public. Without
their eo-operatlon all health laws
become a negligible quantity and
might as well have never been writ
ten. When our legislators at Har
rlsburg caused to be passed upon our
statttto books certain laws for the
guidance of our health officers they
did not intend to cause any unneces
sary hardships to individual families
even though at times obedience to
these laws may greatly Inconvenience
those that are unfortunate enough to
have somo contagious or infectious
disease within their household.
Health laws are niado with the idea
of tho greatest good to the greatest
number. That Is why a certain per
iod of quarantine is established for
different diseases for during the
time It Is posstblo for the patient to
transmit tho dlseaso to others it is
not only dangerous but criminal for
the patient to come in contact with
others.
During the past eight weeks an
epidemic of measles has been pre
valent in Honesdale and vicinity,
schools have bee nclosed, houses
quarantined and many people put to
a great deal of Inconvenience by the
carelessness of their neighbors due
to the fact that they utterly disre
garded the quarantine law and help
ed spread a contagious disease In
stead of assisting the health authori
ties to combat it.
A chain is no stronger than its
weakest link and though the state
laws may be forged ever so strong
if the connecting link between the
health Inspector and the patient is
only a flimsy pretext at compliance
with the existing quarantine law, it
is at once reduced to an absurdity
and soon becomes a farce. There
are some honest people who do not
believe in quarantine, yet this does
not excuse them from obedience to
the law. There are others that think
fumigation does no good. However,
the law says it must be done wher
ever contagious disease has been
present. Some others believe they
can fumigate themselves. But the
law expressly says It must be done
by the Board of Health. Then there
are certain othors that refuse to pay
for fumigation in the borough. Why
they should do so has not been as
certained as yet Ibut they should
know the health officer pays him
self, in the Board of Health, for the
formaldehyde and as his time 13
worth something It Is supposed ho
will be reimbursed by the tenant of,
the property where a contagious dis
ease exists.
If every household where measles
or any other contagious disease exists
will live up to the law as laid down
by the State Board of Health which
tho Health Inspector Informs him of,
we will soon be rid of measles and
have within this beautiful borough
of Honesdale a health resort Instead
of a breeding place for disease.
Most contagious aiseases are pre
ventable today and If the public once
become familiar with that scientific
fact and know tho Important part
each individual plays in the health of
his community wo could get along
with less doctoring and spend more
time Increasing the wealth and hap
piness of our common county.
DR. W. T. McCONVILL,
Secretary Board of Health.

POSTOFFICH REPORT.
Honesdale Did as Much Business
the Last Fiscal Year as Cities
.Many Times Its Size.
Tho Citizen herewith presents a
most gratifying statement of tho
amount of business done at the
Honesdalo postolllco during the fiscal
year Just closed.
Tho figures speak for themselves
and places Honesdalo in a rating with
towns many times the size of our
beautiful Maple City. One thing
that Is evident of prosperity is the
demand to get Into larger quarters,
the present location being Inedcquate
to handle the rapidly Increase of
business. Postmaster Allen hopes to
occupy the city hall building the
middle of August.
Deputy Postmaster C. J. Kolloy
has furnished us with tho following
report which will bo read with much
interest by citizens of Honesdale and
vicinity:
The postal receipts for tho fiscal
year elided June 30, 1912, and they
amounted to ?1S,CS0.03. This is an
Increase of $040. 10 over the fiscal
year ending Juno 30, 1911.
The number of registered letters
and parcels for tho year. 29C0.
Tho money order liusiness is also
Indicative of tho progress of the
Honesdale postolllco. It shows that
during tho fiscal year just ended, the
number of money orders Issued was
G.42G.
There has also been an Increase
in the number of special letters and
packages delivered from this office
during the past year.
The postal savings system was es
tablished at this place on tho 10th
of September, 1911, and has there
fore been less than a year in opera
tion, but it is growing steadily in
public favor and in the number of de
positors. Altogether the Honesdale postof
fice shows a substantial increase in
business for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1912, as compared with the
previous year, and It has been a busy
and prosperous year. There are three
regular carriers, and four rural let
ter carriers. There are live star

GAME PLENTIFUL IN THE STATE
Blight and Game Results Will lie
Serious if Chestnut Trees Arc
Destroyed, Says Secretary
Kalhfus Other Harris
burg Notes.
In the opinion of Dr. Joseph Kalb
fus, Secretary to tho Board of Game
Commissioners of Pennsylvania,
based upon peisonal observation and
reports he has received, game birds
wintered well In this State in spite
of the severe weather, and, together
with a favorable hatching spring, the
outlook for shooting next fall Is
most excellent. Dr. Kalbfus attrib
uted this condition of affairs to
feeding by the keepers of the game
preserves and the systematic de
struction of wildcat, fox, weasel,
skunk and other animals that prey
upon feathered life.
Dr. Kalbfus believes that the
good work In this direction should
be carried further by tho passage of
a bounty act, and he devotes consid
erable space in the report he made
recently to tho Game Commission to
advocacy of it. Reference is also
made In the report to the spread of
the chestnut blight. It means if It
is not checked, says Dr. Kalbfus, a
decided reduction on the food supply
for wild life, and when the supply
rails oeiow the demand thero Is sure
to be serious results.
A fall Is taken out of "an or
ganization that has been formed in
Harrisburg for, as their printed dec
laration states, the protection of
sportsmen." The doctor is of the
opinion that tho policies advocated
by these Harrisburg hunters are at
variance with the best Interests of
tho State.
Governor Tener of Pennsylvania
and his staff of commissioners ar
rived at San Francisco 'Wednesday
to select a site for the Pennsylvania
building at the Panama-Pacific Inter
national exposition. They were met
by members of tho Pennsylvana So
ciety of California, exposition officers
and tho California Grays as a
guard of honor. Tho United States
steamship Slocum brought them
across the bay from Oakland.
General orders, No. 23, giving in
structions for tho approaching di
vision encampment of tho State
Guard, havo been issued at the of
fice of the Adjutant General and
among other things they call atten
tion to tho fact that men enlisted
within thirty days prior to tho en
campment will not bo taken to camp
unless tho soldier has served a prev
ious full enlistment.
WANTED IX) DIE;
TOOK CHLOROFORM.
On Friday evening a young man
of this place attempted to end his
life by drinking chloroform In a Main
street restaurant, but tho attompt
failed and ho was rescued In tlmo
by tho administrations of a local phy
sician. Tho wholo cause of tho rash
act seems to bo tho fact that the
young lady of his choice would not
marry him. Sho told him so and
In a despondent mood and despairing
of his continued lifo without tho
Ideal of his dreams to share it with
him, ho wont to a local drug store
and purchased a quantity of tho
deadly fluid. Going to tho hotel ho
told a person thoro that thoy could
pick him up in about an hour, but
thoy did not think anything of It.
Lator ho was noticed In a corner of
tho room apparently asleep In a
chair. Someone noticed that ho did
not look right and shook him. Fail
ing to get a rosponso from tho
young man a closer obosrvatlon dis
closed tho fact that ho was in a
stupor. Tho physician was called
and In a short tlmo tho young man
was brought around to conscious
ness. Tho young man Is well known
and was able to go to work on Sat
urday morning.
