TWO INSTITUTIONS THE TUBERCULAR AND FEEBLE MINDED. ■ I Two institutions that are most im portant and far-reaching in their ef fect have at separate times been giv en to th e State Hoard of Health by our General Assembly to administer. In away they are preventive and con trol institutions, and for that reason might justly come within the province of the Board’s work. These institu tions are the Tuberculosis Sanatorium and the Training School for Mental defectives, neither of which have ever functioned ns they were intended, for lack of funds. Neither of them is ade quate In size to accommodate the de mands. Each has a long waiting list, and in the case of tuberculosis this wait in itself defeats the very purpose of the institution, that is, the early treatment of the Incipient case. There has never been enough money appro priated for the actual maintenance of either <rf the Institutions to equip them or to keep them full. Even when the ‘new Tuberculosis Sanitarium Is finished there will not be room for the patients who should be there. To discover and prevent the spread of Infectious and contagious diseasei Is the function of the State Hoard of Health. To maintain a laboratory to aid the physicians in making diag noses, to grow and distribute vaccines for diseases, and to supply the phy sicians and the people with serums and vaccines, to make analyses of wa ter supplies, to suggest remedies for the correction of contaminated wells, springs and streams and to prescribe the necessary sanitary work in com munities. These and such other things is we have not time or the space to mention are the duties, per se, of the State Board of Health. These are the things that give service to our entire population. The editor believes that Institutions should be secondary to this fundamental work. A school, for instance, like the one for mental de tectives, should be under the control of a State Board of Mental Hygiene or some other of our educational work. There is some reason for tuberculosis being under the control of the State Board of Health, because.lt is really a quarantine and removes one from society who has a disease that can be directly communicated to another. Our readers should get It clear in their minds that the funds appropriat ed for the State Board of Health and the funds for the institutions under their care are for entirely different purposes, and should be absolutely di vorced when we consider them. We should separate them when consider ing what is actually given tor health work. This paper surely hopes that the present legislature will provide amply for our State Board of Health. How long will it be before we will have a marriage law protecting the pure, Innocent bride from venereal disease and consequent invalidism. Smallpox, a most loathsome dis ease, is no respecter of persons. The only one who is protected against it is the individual who has been success fully vaccinated. Tuberculosis is no respecter of the various parts of the body; all of our vital organs are subject to invasion, but of course the lung is the type with which we are most familiar. , ■ BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBS M8.8L8..8 BB B| ■ I B I I I / I J I /r tTY v |\ ■ / \ \v/ / ' I / L ■ | w ki J i i 1 1 Ti i ■ i I ■ 11 I1 \ 1 ■ 11\ ' s ■ M * ■ ;o' *'* ‘ - '• * ■ ° A a 3. c«.
