JULY 15, 1952 Lydia's Public By Carolyn Inglett, R. N. Lydia Mill Nurse Public health is the health of everyone and a very important subject at the Lydia plant. It is divided into six basic functions: (1) Communicable disease control in which we try to prevent disease from occurring, but if it does, preventing its spread to others. Many of the communicable diseases may be prevented bv "shots" which give immunity to the disease. Typhoid fever is an example where we can take 3 shots to prevent developing typhoid. After the basic three shots we then should take a booster shot each year, or wait three years and then again take three shots again. In addition to the shots, we should practice good sanitation? such as keeping our homes screened, and being careful of the milk and water we drink. On four days during last month we had typhoid clinics at the Lydia Mill clinic and 300 people availed themselves of shots from the public health nurses. Miss Clark and Mrs. Rossiter. and the public health doctor. Dr. Baldwin. (2) Sanitation of our surroundings has made much progress in the Lydia village with replacement of privies with modern sewerage disposal. Efforts are being made to remove all mosquito breeding places. Those who know of mosquito breeding spots should report them to the Lvdia clinic. Those who raise pigs and cows should spray the pens frequently with a good fly killer, and don't throw out tin cans which collect water and breed mosquitoes.

Young children should be given shots which prevent many of the childhood diseases. (4) Laboratory work.
