The true physician is not called only
to minister to the sick and relieve the
suffering, but to a higher duty of pre
venting disease and avoid 'the spreading
of contagious and infectious matter. He
well knows that personal ambition must
be put in the back ground, the aim of his
profession being not meiely to cure dis
ease by the simplest method and keep
people cured the longest length of time,
but to prevent sickness and disease as far
in as his power lies.
Only a few are permitted to have a
course in a medical college and learn
how to prevent and cure sickness. So it
becomes the duty of that few to use their
knowledge, not as a means to gratify
their personal ambition or greed, but to
be the most practical aid to their fellow
man who is dependent upon them for his
health.
The majority of people have neither
the time nor the inclinasion to study hy
giene, but there are a few simple laws
which can be put before them in a prac
tical wry which, if carried out, will pre
vent much sickness which otherwise will
come if these laws are disobeyed.
Having been elected health officer of
Cumming I shall endeavor to live up to
this ideal of a true physician, and in a
series of short practical articles to follow
lay these laws before the people and ask
: their co-operation in “cleaning out, clean
in'* up and keeping clean” onr town,
that we mav have the most healthful
town in North Georgia.
