LEAGUE IS F Richmond Has the First Organization of Its Kind in p ' This State. ADDRESS BY DR. HURTY SECRETARY OF STATE BOARD OF HEALTH TELLS WHAT CAUSES CONSUMPTION AND THE PREVENTIVE FOR IT. Dr. J. N. Hurty. chairman of the dtate Board of Health, lectured to a moderate olcad audience of the Richmond public last night upon "The Means of Preventing the Spreading of Tuberculosis." The meeting was called to order by Acting Chairman Jesse S. Reeves. Chairman Reeves gave a very appropriate speech of Introduction, lightly touching upon the general outline which was followed later by Dr. Hurty: Dr. Hurty said In part: "In Hawthorne's Tanglewood Tales the author relates of a horrible monsters which inhabits a Labyrinth. This monster feeds only upon tributes of , children and maidens. Tuberculosis may rightly be compared to this monster, for does it not feed upon the human being of our world? Many Die Near Fifteen. "Those persons who succumb 'to consumption during the year vary In ge between fifteen and thirty. The most of them being nearer the age of fifteen. This disease exacts a toll of some 1, 950,000 human being each year. In Indiana pneumonia comes first In destructiveness; then tuberculosis, carrying away with it annually 5,000 persons. Twenty-thousand persons In the state are at this moment afflicted with this disease. Three-fourths of them recover In some form from It, but the overwhelming number above stated, die. "Scienco has proved beyond a reasonable dougt that it is curable, and If taken in time, death can scarcely result.. "Now for the preventative. So long as a person treats the body in accordance with physical -laws and leads the clean Ufa of a Christian, he is just one step nearer the preventatlon of this 'disease. Good air night and day, good digestion, plain food, good water are its cures. The simple life of temperance and concord with the laws of cleanliness, these are the preventatives of the disease. Fresh Air Badly Needed. "Trolley cars, shut tight, with . the insufficient ventilation through the small windows in the roof; department stores, factories, school houses and public buildings not properly ventilated, n re the breeding: places and Incubators of thla disease. FrosJi air, fresh air in good, large quantities is what is called for. "Bad air is the initial cause of consumption. It is the general. opinion that it is one of inheritance. This is not properly bo. One may inherit the weak body, the weak lungs and jenerally frail constitution which is a great assistance in the developing of tho disease, but the inheritance of the disease itself Is impossible. "People speak about the night air. They are afraid that they may become possessed of some very bad cold which may result seriously. They are afraid to keep their windows open Fresh air, fresh air whether that of night or day. Keep tho windows open at night. Breathe in the good pure air while you sleep. One third of the , life is spent In sleeping and why Bhould one breathe and rebreathe ones own air. I want to urge the people to breathe the night air and to keep- their windows open. "The , principal reason and cause ' of Tuberculosis is that of bad air. Nutrition lets down, and resistance is lost. The tissues are then In an unhealthy state and susceptible of the germs of consumption. Not only do we acquire thla disease by breathing foul air but we also lay ourselves open to many other serious diseases. God gave a cure when He gave us pure air to breathe. Rate High in Wayne County. "The object of my lecture this evening Is to attempt to further the plans of the already proposed AnttTuberculosls League which Is about to be Initiated in Richmond and Wayne County. Tht statistics for 1905 show us that tho , ratfti is;aston- ' Ishlngly high In Wayne county. This county is above the average of the whole state. Why? One reason is that the people do not get enough air. During the winter months tlTe average of deaths from consumption Is above the general average. It will also' be observed further that during the summer months there are very few deaths caused by consumption. This Is due to the fact that people are out of doors more. They get pure and fresh air. ; "Wayne County comes just above Scott county In the rato of death from consumption. Scott county Is the last In the list and has more consumptive deaths than any other county in the state. There has been an increase of one and one-tenth In thje past few years. "Law will not kill the disease but Individual work will eventually block It out. Several years a&o tho State (Continued, to Fage Eight)
