The Association was formed little more than one year ago. Mr. John N. Reeve was elected the president, who with his subordinate officers started off in good *ape to make a success. At the meeting held at Green Creek (the last one)

l there wan sufficient cold water thrown i ion the efforts being put forth by one, 1 of the smart set that completely dis- , , ! heartened those who were interested 1 . j and working hsrd for the benefit of the I association. Mr. Reeve has not deemed , it advisable to go any farther with af- , It appears in this as well as in other affairs that if a certain few can- 1 1 ■not be the ring leaders they will kill j , | the affair rather than help it along. The ] association could of been a great help i to our poultry growers if certain factions had been kept out of the business i meetings. Rev. William Ellis is attending Con- 1 ! at Atlantic City this week. It I i not certain whether he will return i for aiiother year. Mr. Elli^ hss been , faithful to his post of duty and has preached very acceptable sermons, and ' the majority of our people would like i him to return for another year. ( HEALTH OF 00R SUMMER RESORTS ^ Many of our summer resort# have acted on the policy that a good climate, charm .of location and beauty of scenery 1 an- sufficient inducements to attract . the summer visitor: but nowadays pco- i pie are more war)' and wisely look for more than this before selecting a vacation playground. The visitor wants a • clean bill of health from the resort . has chosen, and is entitled to have one. Vacation typhoid is becoming j . as a serious hazard. The pru- J dent recreation seeker now finds out "n [ advance whether or not this infection prevails at the plan- he has in mini, and furthermore learns what sanitary J measures are being taken there to safe- j guard the health of the summen colony The town of York. Maine, has recently I taken steps that at once place it in tl.oj i forefront of progress as far as health i ; concerned. The way the problem was j met may well serve as a model for other i I summer resorts. Last year there were | number of cases of typhoid fever at l , York. No attempt was made to conceal j . the fact of the existence of the disease j • and its extent. The authorities very ■ I properly felt that the. way to meet any J ! danger was to face it in the open. An I . expert was invited to come to York and j . ' make a sanitary survey. The chief rec- • ommendation of the expert was that j Y'ork needed a full time, health officer. i The town appropftat&l/$2,500 a year • ' for this purpose and appointed Mr . | William Eustis Brown, a graduate of • the School for Health Officers of Har- - vard Technology, to the newly created position. The town of Y'ork is now 1 spending one dollar per capita per year t for health, a larger sum than is approg priated by any other American city dib rectly for a like purpose. "Public health is purchasable," the price is mod1 crate, and Y'ork shows by its action j that it intends to enjoy the best attain- ■. able protection from disease. Other ; summer colonies will find it to their ads vantage to follow the example of York and take the necessary measures to f safeguard their citizens and the strang- - ers within their gates. The Journal of - the American Medical Association a strongly advises the public to demand ■ the security of health that only a wrfl- - ordered sanitary department can fur1 nish. Our seashore and mountain re- - sort# can no longer depend on nature ) and luck for a clean bill of health. f|
