In these days when peddlers have become such a nuls- ance and get away with so many slick practices it is gratifying to learn of Individuals who have trip- ped them at thelr own game, a CHECKING COMMUNICABLE DISEASE The contention that “fumigation is futile’ as a means of controlling the spread of communicable diseases is now borne out by the Department of Health. Though the practice has been gen» eral and still is in many rural com- munities,-ite- usefulness as. . has alway been a question of doubt in our minds. Where communicable diseases oc- cur, we believe the school child and not the school room needs to he watched. Fumigating the schools and scattering the children by rea- son of dismissal does not seem to be 4 ¢o-ordinating method of combat- ting the disease. For how can health authorities maintain a check on scholars who may show symptoms of a disease after they have been associating wth others out of school and perhaps infecting them A strict quarantine of the known cases seqms to be the modern and only method of meeting such a sit- uation. For then the “carrier” {s isolated and “suspects” can be im- mediately withdrawn from school and placed under observation by the family physician. .The sooner parents learn to con- sult thelr doctor when the child ap pears ill, and when quarantine is ordered, the more strictly it is obey- ed ,the better it will be for the com- munity. It seems old fashioned to close a a school to fumigate, only to re-open and face the same condition as be- fore. Checking the spread of disease sheuld begin at home and not in the school. hee ae was Psapweg in ov pepe R. F.
