The good doctor was urged to make no noise about it and not to frighten people with too much publicity. This was a wise admoniâ€" tion. How often it has beenâ€"and still isâ€"said: "Our forefathers did not take so much care, and yet they lived to old age." How often did those who carried on the work meet with what I have called, and still call, remains of paganism such as makes parents and others say at the death of a child: "One more little angel." All these and many other objections had to be‘ appeased before the real work could be done. ‘ Much real work, however, has been done. Public opinion has been awakened, which, realizing the imâ€" portance of preventive measures in protecting lives and health, does not object to seeing large amounts deâ€" vottd to these purposes, Year after year that original $5,000 was increased until by 1920 it had grown to $119,694, which was then considered to be quite By Hon. Athanese David Provincial Secretary and Registrar, Province Quebec (Condensed from the Montreal Gazette) a large amount for public health. j Since 1920 more determined efforts to increase public health activities have been made in the Province,. The former Board was replaced by a Deâ€" partment, and striking contrast is afforded in comparing the 1920 and 1930 budgets. For during the latter year, the amount devoted to public hoalth work was $621,859. During these years of increasing public. in-l terest in public health, a tremendous campaign of education was first under-‘ ‘taken, directed principally against our two greatest scourges, tuberculosis and infantil mortality, Then actual institutions were opened to deal with these two problems. In 1923 but two , Quebec cities had such organizations. That year monies were voted for the purpose and within three years, twentyâ€"one clinics and diapensaries were at work. In 1926 a departure was made in } the Domain of public bealth with the creation throughout the Province of health centres, After the war, the Rockefeller Foundation | in France created in Seineâ€"Oise such a unit with‘ great success. Having observed on the spot the work accomplished, 1 thought the experiment well worth being tried in this Province. A law weas passed to promote the creation in the rural areas of these centres, with the result that the work has proâ€" gressed with tremendous strides, and this is no exaggeration if anyone will compare the results with those in any other conutry. _ Inside four years twentyâ€"nine rural counties consented to tax themselves at the rate of two, three or four cents per hundred dolâ€" lars to collaborate with the Governâ€" ment in the establishment of these ecntres,. This goodwill on the part of our people has had immediate yesults ’in the establishment of twentyâ€"threee \centres covering the twentyâ€"ninge counâ€" ties. These 23 units at present protect 767,062 countyâ€"dwellers â€" or 47 per cent. of that entire jortion of our population eligible for organization uader the Rural Sanitary Unit plan. Demands and requests before us lead diphtheria by means of antiâ€"toxine our health centres immunized from the 1st of June, 1930, to the 1st of October last, 36,000 children, and this campaign will continue during 1931 with even reater intensity. Something quite new, I believe in GEORGE F. LEW!IS Deputy Fire Marshal of Ontario, Canadian Director of the National Fire Protection _ Association and Chairman of the Fire Marshal‘s Secâ€" tion, headed the Toronto committee who were hosts to the members and delegates to the Associatin‘s 35th annual convention held at the Royal York Hotel, Toronto, May 1144. Canada was instituted in the Province of Quebec in 1928. There has been functioning in France a system known as "I‘Oeuvre Grancher," which conâ€" sists in placing with healthy famâ€"jlies in the country children menaced by‘ contact with tuberculosis when living in infected surroundings. Experience shows that if children remain in conâ€" tact with tubercularâ€"affected persons, C) per cent,. of them will become paâ€" tients, and 40 per cent, of this 60 per cent. will die of the scourge. On the ‘other hand, the proportion of victims !ot tuberculosis among c ‘ldren taken laway from their unhealthful surroundâ€" ings is one per cent. It is, therefore, logical to believe that the greater the number of these childrer taken away, with the consont of parents, from surroundings that are a danger to them, the sooner will be checked the spread of the worst disease that tâ€"â€"day affects the Province of Quebec. There are two purposes achieved by this work. First, we combat tuber â€"culosis in its own entrenchments, secâ€" | ondly, children taken away from the city and kept on the farm realizing what they have received from country life, will remai~ attached to the soil. Already one hundred of such children are located with bealthy and devoted rural families. These facts will, I believe, convince the population of the Province of Queâ€" hec that the Government has acknow}â€" edged as 2 political truth, as well as an economic truth, the words of Disâ€" raeliâ€"often repeated, yet never too oftenâ€"that "The first care of public health."
