(By John Burke Ingram») This, we have been brought up to beâ€" lieve is a free country, which means among other things, that duly accreditâ€" ed citizens are free to be as foolish as they please. For example, they canâ€" excepting in enlightened districts, or when there is a smallpox scareâ€"refuse to be vaccinated. "They can refuse to have their chilâ€" ren immunized against diphtheria, and. so many of them do, that this absoluteâ€" ‘ ly preventable disease kills 1200 Canâ€" adians a year, and makes a total of 13,â€" 500 seriously ill. If they live in a disâ€" trict where the water and milk supplies are not rigidly safeâ€"guarded by a comy petent public health department, and where their friends and neighbours are dropping off like flies with typhoid fever, they can still refuse to accept |the immunity to this disease which inâ€" |noculation against it provides. . They | can ignore the fact that this innoculaâ€" | tion against typhoid fever, (which disâ€" l ease killed more soldiers in the Boc | war than bullets did) is so effective i that in the Great War not one Canaâ€" dian soldier died of typhoid. ! They canâ€"however, I can go on like this straight down to the bottom of the ‘column. The point of my plaint is ‘ this: that because people can‘t be forecâ€" l ed to take the trouble to be healthy, they must be persuaded to ao it. And the peculiar situation that exists today | is that it doesn‘t seem to be quite anyâ€" ! body‘s business to do the persuading. ‘Consequently. thousands of Canadians : are dying unnecessarily every year, long |years ahead of their time, of diseases which could be prevented. True, much | valuable work is being done by public | health departments. But even they %are prone to function too coldlyâ€"to | fail to combine the heart of humanity . | with the head of science, with the reâ€" | sult that while they function excellentâ€" .'ily, and save many lives, it is almost ! without the knowledge of their beneâ€" ficiaries the taxpayers, and assuredly | without their warm and hearty coâ€" [ | operation. > I think that the need for public eduâ€" |cation as regards health, and the adâ€" | visability of public health departments .\ going out of their way a bit to win popular support for their work has seldom been more lucidly and admirâ€" *lably and forcibly expressed than by 2 A fail to combine Uhe NCearl OL I1UIMIdiLlL}Yy with the head of science, with the reâ€" sult that while they function excellentâ€" ly, and save many lives, it is almost without the knowledge of their beneâ€" fciaries the taxpayers, and assuredly without their warm and hearty coâ€" operation. I think that the need for public eduâ€" cation as regards health, and the adâ€" visability of public health departments going out of their way bit to win popular support for their work has seldom been more lucidly and admirâ€" ably and forcibly expressed than by Dr. A. J. Douglas, M.O.H. of Winnipeg.; in his presidential address before the ; Canadian Public Health Association‘s annual meeting in Toronto in May, of this year. j _ ‘"Even now," he said in part, "there | ilare a number of matters connected \with our profession for which it is diffiâ€" !cult to ‘obtain a sympathetic and enâ€"| couraging hearing from the public. "It is not I think because the people , \as a whole are unwilling to countenâ€" | ance new and sometimes rather revoluâ€" | tionary things but is due to unwillingâ€" \ness to approve something which they | | do not understand. That they do not ; | understand is often because they have | ‘had nobody to instruct them or that | instructions they have received | f’:ha\'e not been given in a convincing manner, with arguments driven home f"b,v incontrovertible facts and demonâ€"! | | strations. || _ ‘"To attain the greatest success in our | a work there must be an approved public ‘ ,isentiment. Public health ’llaws. and regulations cannot run far | ; | ahead of public opinion and knowledge ‘ . | without encountering opposition or inâ€" | ~lertia which will clog progress. . Any \health regulation in which the public | does not have confidence or to which 1| the majority of people are definitely | Pecple are forgetful and careless Aat times, but they have to exercise judgâ€" ment and thoughtfulness about some matters. For instance, if a man §g0o€S on a lengthy trip in a motor car and forgets to take along any money, the nctelâ€"kespers and garage men will not accey his excuse that he left his money in his other pants as enough exâ€" cuse to warrant extending him credit. Unless he has friends along the way to help him out he will be in a bad way. If he makes anything like A piactice of forgetting his money ‘*in his other clothes," he will not get much sympathy from pecple in general if ho encounters difficulty along the way. A man has to remember to provide himâ€" self in such a case. In the same way man taking a trip in a motor car is exâ€" pected to carry along his driver‘s 11â€" conse. There does not seem to be any more excuse for him forgetting this ‘necessary dccument than for forgetâ€" ting to take along the key of his car Or gas enough to carry him to the next oil station. Perhaps, in some CaSesS, the reason he is careless about his liâ€" cense card is because he does not take the law seriously enough. In that case he has only himself to blame if he enâ€" counters trouble on his trip. A man who is going any particular distance away from home should be especially careful to remember to take along his griving permit if he intends to do any driving. If he doesn‘t it appears hardâ€" 1y fair to blame anybody else for what may occur. At the present time there is a regular epidemic among police officers south of Timmins in the matâ€" ter of asking to see drivers‘ cards. Acâ€" cordingly it is only common sense to be prepared. If every man were honest and truthful there might be excuse for expecting police officers to accept an individual‘s word for the possession at x cpposed is not capable of adequate enâ€" E ‘ forcement. â€" ‘ nome in other clothes of the permit | that is supposed to be carried wherever _' and whenever a man is driving a Cat health regulation in which the public daces not have confidence or to which the majority of people are definitely cpposed is not capable of adequate enâ€" fcrcement. â€" "We have rbached the stage now when the lives of people are well proâ€" tected through the provision of pure water, milk and food, through child welfare, through sanitary disposal of human and other wastes, and through better control of preventable diseases. "Progress in the future should take place by teaching individuals to proâ€" tect themselves, by showing where danger lies and how to avoid it, by tryâ€" ing to make every person health ofi â€" cer for himself and his family. M MnE bad "Private organizations are much inâ€" terested in public health. They give freely not only of their time, but spend large sums of money in ~propaganda and education, and have many practiâ€" cal accomplishments to their credit. It is my opinion that we should do what lies in our power to coâ€"operate with and assist bodies whose aims are ethical and in accord with sound practice. sSuch are often able to reach sections of the public with which official agenâ€" cies cannot get in touch." YOUTH DROWNED AT HIGH FALLS ON BLANCHE RIVER The Haileyburian last week says:â€", "Walter Groom, agd 20 years, was | drowned in the Blanche River, below High Falls, near Englehart on Sunday: afternoon, when he got beyond his; depthn while in bathing and was swept away by the swift current. With two ccmpanions, the youth, who lived with his father and two brothers on a farm a Brentha. about six miles from Engleâ€" hart, had gone swimming during the heat of the afternoon, when the fataliâ€" ty happened. There was apparently no chance to save him as he disapâ€" peared quickly in the stream, which flows very fast at that point. The body was recovered on Monday and ;the coroner notified, but the circumâ€" stances were so clearly accidental that no inquest was held. The funeral of the unfortunate youth was held on Tuesday at Englehart." | LE ENE PORT ROWAN NEWSPAPERMAN mm sAID MUCH TOO LITTLE | (From Stratford Beaconâ€"Herald) The editor of the Port Rowan News is somewhat of a philosopher. We imagine he would like to see great deal of happiness in the world, and we suspect, also, that his sensitive soul is touched to the quick when he reads of divorce cases and such. | | UAYVILULEC AAILL J He has a suggestion, and that is that! girls should be taught how to pick out| a husband. His idea is given in his| own words: : ', "The earâ€"marks of a good husbans are very distinctly impressed upon young man, but a part of a girl‘s trainâ€" ing should be along the lines which enable her to discern them." But right there the sage of Port Rewan ceases. He excites a certain amount of curiosity, then wipes his pn off by sticking itnto the old potato on the desk and calls it a day. Now what are these earâ€"marks of a good husband that are stuck all over every young man? We have seen some fine young men, Romanâ€"nosed, gocd teeth in their heads, who knew how to handle a knift and fork, say please and ‘hankâ€"you, and they always wiped their feet off before walking across the rag carpet in the parlour. But a husâ€". jyands thevy were poor prunes. And then we can recall unlikely ocking fellows, gawky, bent in at the and in later years with big fat and double chins. Not much to look at, at any time, but they marâ€" ried pretty girls, used their feet as recking horses for the children, called their wife "dear" and were as good as a Canadian dollar. | The Port Rowan editor may have gsone back for contemplation before finishing his article on how a girl should go about it to pick good man.

It. costs them much trouble and sometimes considerâ€" able expense if they can not produce s the necessary cards. The way to avoid this is always to carry the"permit when driving a car. In speaking of the matâ€" ter The New Liskeard Speaker last | week said :â€" ! "Over the past weekâ€"end Provincial Police are said to have been much in ‘evidence just south of North Bay. | where motorists were held up while \they produced their driving permits | or explained why they did not have them on their person. The result was that many persons to whom | had been issued had to explain that But the police officer may be aA SUsâ€" picious fellow or he may think the story of the card being in other clothes is simply a form of swank to let it be known that the motorist has two suits of clothes as well as one Car.

That‘s the worst of having more than one suit of clothes. This always having your driving permit on your: person is some problem.

Better start a Dersonâ€" al marking system by which means the receipt of payment will always be availâ€" able. Quite recently a Liskeard boy, who has been driving for years, was at the wheel passing through Huntsville when the police stopped the car and asked for a showing of permits.
