The initiative is still firmly in the
hands of the British, and It is theirs
to say what the next movement will
be.
That the British gains were at-
tended with heavy losses is indicated
in reports from the German grand
headquarters and correspondents' de-
spatches from the front.
In one place to the right of Pozier-
es the artillery failed to completely
level the wire entanglements erected
by the Germans, and the Englisb.
troops attacking on that front were
subjected to a furious machine-gun
tire which cost them heavily. De-
spite this, they sueceded in penetrat-
ing into Guillernont, and now hold
sections of the outskirts. In addition,
the British for a time regained com-
plete control of Longueval, where
there has been heavy fighting for the
last week. Later, the official report
states, they were forced to cede
ground in the northern part of the
village before a strong German. coun-
ter-attack.
The gain at Pozieres puts the Eng-
lish
ngliish troops beyond the German third
line. They are within two miles of
the heights of Martinpuich, crest of
Ib' elateau.
The Berlin statement says that the
Brit'sb attacks were met with a heavy
~. end that the advancing troops
-uffered severely. Berlin concedes
no retirement. Great numbers of
British took part in the attack, Says
the grand headquarters, and the cas-
ualties were commensurate to the
forces engaged. Especially heavy
fighting, the statement says, took
place west of Pozieres in the Four-
eaux wood and around Longueval.
Gen. Haig's night despatch, issued
hours after the Berlin statement, re-
ports, however, that further progress
was made during the day in the
Pozieres region. On. the front heli)
by the French on both banks of the
Somme a heavy artillery fire was di-
rected against the Germans through-
out Saturday night and during Sun-
day. A night attack by the Kaiser's
troops south of Soyecourt is reported
by the French War Office to have
been repulsed.
The Central News Sunday night
made the statement, "from authori-
tative information," that the Brits.)
and French in their three weeks et
offensive have taken prisoners 26.22'..
Germans, and that 140 heavy guns,
40 bomb -throwers, and several hun-
dred machine guns have been ear-
tured.
The gains which marked the ape,:-
ing of the fourth week of the bat:',
have created the best impression in
London, Confidence is now felt that
the drive is destined to accomplish
great things, and that the stage ha
been passed where the fighting will
die away as did that in Champagne
hist autumn and the Artois move -
meat in the spring of 1915. London
believes it recognizes the real thing
?n .the Picardy offensive, and that the
-push" for the Rhine is well under
way. The fact. that General ' Haig baa
ren able- to .resume the offensive so
soon after the unsuccessful • German
eouuter-attacks of last week, in.
h:ch very strong German forces
are brought forward, isyregarded es
a good augury.
The fighting has been of the fe-re-
est character, the Germans working
with their utmost strength to prev€ n t
the British from advancing to •the''
third -line pozitions, but when t'I-
"ist reports left headquarters in
?France the Australians had herrn'
,,stablished themselves in Pozrer -;;

HOW TO KEEP .WEL .
A
BY JOHN W. S. McCULLOUGH, M.D., D.P.H., CHIEF OFFICER
OF THE PROVINCIAL BOARD OF HEALTH.

THERE are five chief ways in which disease spreads. These are:
' Water, Food, Flies, Milk, and Contact. These sources of infection
are intermingled with one another. Let us look into them and
see how disease travels from one person to another.
The source of all water supply comes from the rain and
snow. Next we find it inrivers, streams, ponds, and lakes, stored in the
ground in the form of springs, and in underground stretches of gravel
whence it is obtained from deep or shallow wells. When a water supply
is being considered it must be judged (like the character of a
WATER person) by the company it keeps. Any source of water supply
cannot be pure if it is exposed to the entrance into it of sewage
(the discharge from the bodies of human beings). This may occur in a
variety of ways; for example, a stream, river, or lake which would other-
wise be pure, may have the sewage of a town dumped into it, or there may
be water -closets upon its banks, or the excreta of a typhoid case may be
thrown on the ground nearby and washed by melting snow or rain into the
water. A supply from such a source, unless purified, is a dangerous one. It
might be safe for every day of the year but one; the pollution on that one
day might start an epidemic. of disease, The well . may be unprotected,
allowing surface water to enter, or it may be sunk in a creviced limestone
rock which serves as a means whereby sewage may reach the water,. The
commonest diseases carried by water are Typhoid Fever, Cholera, Dysentery,
and Diarrhoea (or Summer Complaint). In' this country the commonest
water -borne disease is Typhoid Fever. .
. *
Food frequently carries disease because it becomes contaminated
FOOD by flies, dirty fingers, .and by mouth or nose -spray of carriers or
persons affected by disease. Meat containing the germs of tuber-
culosis or the larvae of certain worms, if insufficiently cooked, may carry
disease.
Plies breed in manure, chiefly in fresh horse manure. They will not
breed in fermenting manure which is too hot for them. A period of eight
to eleven days is required to carry the fly from the egg stage through the
maggot, larvae, and pupae stages to the full grown fiy. The fly
FLIES will not travel great distances if there is plenty of food at hand,
but if hungry it may fly for some distance, say half a mile or more.
One can easily understand how this insect may carry disease when one con-
siders its well-known. habits of flitting from the exposed contents of the
water -closet to food in the kitchen. Diseases such as Typhoid, Dysentery,
Cholera, Diarrhoea, and Tuberculosis are commonly carried by flies,
By ,nni.ik froze tuberculous cows children may become infected with
Tuberculosis; or, if the handier is a consumptive, the disease may he car-
ried to the users. Sindlariy, if those handling 'milk are in contact
MILK with diseases like Scarlet Fever or .Diphtheria, these diseases may
• be carried. Washing of cans with sewage -polluted water, or t 'uitinn Cs
of milk -with polluted water may serve to infect the milk; and, in tura, the
consumers with water -borne diseases. "
e * :
Contaot with either the actual victims of diseases like Tuberculosis
and. communicable affections, or with "carriers" of such diseases is a very
common means of infection. Those Who come closest in contact -with
sufferers from communicable diseases are the greatest victims.
CONTACT .'Thus in cases of Diphtheria the "mother,the nurse, and the
doctor suffer infection in the order named. It used to be
thought that Tuberculosis was inherited because members of the same.
Caneyy often died one after the other. Now it is well understood that Tuber-
culosis. is ,a "Catching" disease' and that it is the close contact between the
members of the family, living,' eating, sleeping together; using the s'une
table utensils and the'saime towels; which is the cause of the tcrr.ble,family
mortality frozr,' this disease. The better this is known the better is the
chance for prevention of Tuberculosis.
These facts, about the manner' in which disease is spread ps'h.d
l:l no
o.
taught to every child. The school teachers might do well to h ar e
every
child in his or her class °learn these truths by heart. Children
+irn:;such facts very quickly, The knowledge of -the growing p .pulatioz
