[WHAT DEPARTNENT OF HEALTH IS DOING 800 Kept Alive by Free Insulin. -- Toronto, April 26---Hon. Dr. Forbes Godfrey, Ontario minister of health and labor, described in an ip- teresting manner the work of the Ontario department of health, before the West York Conservative Asso- ciation at Mimico Saturday after- noon, He showed that the department is trying to do its work by education, not by regulation, or legislation, and is paying big dividends on the in- vestment, in combating tuberculosis, diabetes and other dread diseases, "When one considers the economic importance of this plece of health work, one will not ask the question, does public health pay? As a con- crete instance \of the financial re- turns from the public health work of this province consider tubercu- losis," sald Dr. Godfrey. "In the past fifteen years, the death rate from tuberculosis in On- tario has dropped over 40 per cent. and why? Sanatorium treatment, which is simply education in health habits and in the use of the four cardinal health accessories, fresh air, sunshine, food and rest. Edu- cation of the patient in how to pro- tect others in his neighborhood, and so to keep down the number of in- tected contacts, and third, educa- tion of those exposed, or in contact with a patient, teaching them how to protect themselves. Early detec- tion of the disease; early diagnosis and early treatment, Effect Big Saving. Now for the financial side: At the present time, Ontario is paying one and a half million dollars .diréctly chargeable to tuberculosis and made up of grants to sanatoria; payment for patients in sanatoria and moth- ers' allowance in cases of husbands incapacitated or deceased from tub- erculosis. Were our status with re- spect to tuberculosis the same now as it was fifteen years ago, we would be paying at the very least 40 per cent. more than a million and a half dollars -- namely $600,000. The total annual appropriation of the health department is §672,000. Does public health pay? And. is the department of health paying a sub- stantial dividend on the investment the province is making in connec- tion therewith. Benefits of Insulin. As a physician, I very well remem- ber the time when the doctor had to go down into his own pocket in the ¢ase of & poor patient, and pay $7 or $8 for a dose of anti-toxin. Often, too, this was delayed, the delay cost- ing the life of the patient. Now, the same amount of anti-toxin costs the province of Ontario about $1. It costs the physician and the patient, personally, nothing. It is adminis- tered early, and the saving of life is enormous. In the same way the free distribution of insulin has more than Justified {itself. Wa are spending approximately $35,000. a year on in- sulin, and we are maintaining alive and well between 800 and 900 good citizens of this province, the great majority of whom would be utterly Hon. D. Forbes Godfrey Says| a Se unable to. privide "insulin for them- 'GEN. SE ALEX 'BERTRAM selves would go down as a result of} diabetes. The cost of insulin has | been reduced to the department to! 45 cents per 100 units. The present average annual cost per patient is in | the neighborhood of $40. It is worth every cent of this, multiplied many times, to maintain this group, many of whom are bread-winners, so that they may keep in good health, support themselves and their families and prevent themselves and their families from being a public charge. ; Across Canada and Back.

Returning, the trip will be by the main line of the Canadian Pacifle, through the great canyons of the Fraser and Thompson Rivers, and through the Selkirks, and Rockies, affording scemery such as can be found nowhere else on earth; Lake Louise, the Pearl of the Rockies, the most perfect gem of scenery on the world; another day at Banff, Edmon- ten, the Capital of Alberta; Saska- toon, the city of optimism; Devils Gap Camp, on the Lake of the Woods, near Kenora, thence to Fort William, where one of the fine Cana- dian Pacific steamers will be used across Lakes Superior and Huron to Fort McNicoll, then rail to To- ronto, where the trip will terminate.
