Surely this is just common sense. 1 Public Health 1 Lot us turn now to tlie matter of our Public Health and examine the situation as it exists in this Province, taking up first the pro- blem that confronts our people with respect to Tuberculosis. Vital statistics have shown past has occupied the nnenviable position of having more deaths from this“ disease than any prov- ince in Oauadn. People as well known for their intelligence as those of Prince Edward Island should surely be looking carefully into the reason for this. There must be reasons. and nothing can atlon and sharp questioning than this matter of our peoples health. There were ‘I00 deaths from this disease in i924 and 115 in 1921. W-hat does this mean lo us? Apart from the grief and suffer- lioltneee and death. the actual money lose to ‘the prov-ince is great, and will surely interest you. will not take time to analyze the cost of eaoh death from this di- seaae ho the state: lfiifftice it to the very iealt at which we can reckon the average c t of one death from Tuberculosis is $10,- 000.00.

I think not. We have no Negroes and our Indians have rapidly disappeared. Our popula- tion is of Scotch, English and French extraction, races that en- joy a welli marked degree of ini- munity. We have no dark, crowd- ed, ill ventilated slums. no sweat shops in which over driven work- ers have lost their power to resist infection, no abject poverty so common in our great cities and no underground workers. 0n the ~othcr hand we live in u. province that enjoys every circumstance that is conducive to bcaltli and longevity, a land without famine, drought or pestilence. There are no extremes of tilimnte and from which over direction the‘ wind blows it comes to us purified by the sea and laden with health giv- ing properties. The majority of matter in regard to which we are showing a shameful neglect. Take Smallpox, by vaccination. Miss work as supervisor of the Cross Society, has niade this state- ment: "Parenlo are becoming careless with regard to having their children vaccinated before entering school, which iiieaiis that they are denying the innocent lit- tle ones the right to protection against this loathsome disease. The Red ‘Cross reports of school iii- spectors made in 1925 show that in rural school visited 91% of the children were unvnccinatetl. This is a very grave slate of affairs." Some day a. lumberman will return to the province with Smallpox and a terrible epidemic of this disease our people are etigugeti iu ugt-icui. will occur.

There can be. l think, only one answer, we in pflllCfl Edward Island are making no effort to wipe out this terrible and unneces- sary scourge. - That it can be wiped out has been proven conclusively many times. in Framingha-m, an indus- " trial town of 16,000 population, a life insurance company provided the money to conduct n health sur- vey and demonstration covering a period of five years.
