Book Description
Excerpt from Community Hygiene One of the most significant and far-reaching movements of the day is the awakening of the health conscience of the community. No matter how alert, well informed, and prudent the individual may be, he is no longer able to protect his own health or that of his family from some of the most serious dangers which threaten it. Even the most wealthy and in uential citizen is utterly powerless to insure the purity of his water-supply, the proper disposal of his sewage and garbage, the purity of the milk his children drink, or the wholesomeness of the food on his table, except by the aid of the strong arm of the law acting through public officers of health. In fact, health has become a community problem. At first sight, the wisdom of giving children in formation about public health may seem open to question. They have no votes; and it will be several years before they are able either to in uence public opinion or vote yes or no on questions of public sanitation. Furthermore, it may be argued that they are likely to have difficulty in understand ing the engineering and chemical problems involved in public sanitary measures.

Excerpt from Good Neighbors: A Study in Vocational and Community Hygiene Every year, too, sees the advent of two million young voters, youths and maidens. Who have attained their ccv eted majority and who are legally, if in no other respect, ready for the vote. How well are these young workers and citizens per pared for their tasks of labor and of democracy? Four million American school children are handicap ped by mouth breathing, caused by tonsils and adenoids. Five million have trouble with their eyes. Eight out of every ten have seriously defective teeth. One million have something wrong with their ears. Two million have flat feet or crooked spines. One in every three is under weight, undernourished, or malnourished. How can these children do good work with such poor bodily tools? As to preparation for citizenship, - f or real community service, - how many of our young folks are given any actual training at all? And yet the success of any civilization must rest upon the health of its workers as individuals and as commun ity members.
