The December meeting is to be held
at
be
measures are taken, the entire com
munity becomes involved.
The infectious diseases spread from
person to person by personal contact.
If there is a general outbreak in"
a school section, some persons clam
our for closing of the school, Such''
a proceeding is of no value. It is
better to keep the school open since
in school there is general supervision.
Left at home the children mingle to
gether on the streets without super
vision. and the outbreak spreads.
There are two precautions of real
value in the prevention and control of
the infectious diseases. The first is
as old as Moses. It is to “separate
the sick from the well." That is how
the great law-giver protected the Ls.-
raelitish tribes against the spread of
disease. The principle remains one
of the best resources of the health of
ficer. He isolates the sick one from
the other members of the family and
thus prevents, in so far as he can,
the dissemination of the infection.
The other precaution goes back to
the days before the child is born. It
is the proper feeding of the baby’s
mother before her child is born. In
addition to the use of essential foods,
meat, eggs, milk, fish, vegetables and
fruit, the mother should have cod-liv
er oil and sea-fish throughout her
pregnancy. Many mothers are anae
mic. If so, they should have suitable
treatment for this condition from
their respective doctors. *
Tlie value of cod-liver oil and sea
fish in the mother’s diet consists in
the prevention of rickets in her baby.
Moreover such a.’diet ensures good
bones and teeth iu the child, increases
the resistance to infection and a
sturdy, vigorous body.
There are other valuable preventa-
tives of infection. In the first year
of life every child should take cod
liver oil from October to May. The
clothing should be suited to the wea
ther, and not too heavy in the' hours
of play. It is a mistake to
going with bare legs when
comes. There is no value
practice after . September,
valuable it may be in the summer sun
light.
The old-fashioned practice of let
ting the child take measles and oth
er infectious diseases “so they will be
done with them’ ’is played out. In
every possible way the child should
be prevented from having the infec
tious diseases. The childhood infec
tions are.provocatives of heart dis-
arthritis
