ANNUAL REPORT
Mother's Aid has varied very little during the year. We had 17 cases Jan. 1, have added 4, closed 3, leaving 18 now. Cash aid per week Jan. 1 was $220.00, has been below $219.00 only one week, has been as high as $272.00, is $231.00 now. In addition to weekly cash other ex- pense has been $1,236. 14, mostly fuel, for 11 months.
Total Expenditures 11 mos. $12,212.14 Add 1/11 for Dec.
1,110.19
$13,323.33 We recommend $13,500.00
On Temporary Aid Cash we had Jan. 1, 9 cases, have added 24, closed 13, leaving 20 now. This account has been running over $100.00 per week since June 28, $122.00 or over since Sept. 27, $146.00, or ever since Oct. 25 and is $159.00 now. We have been shifting people who have large families and require considerable aid from grocery orders to T. A. Cash as they can buy to better advantage, get more for the money, and take care of milk, food and rent better than with grocery orders that they have to cash all at one place and all at one time, then have nothing for the rest of the week. If we had not made this shift the Outside Relief account would have gone up instead of the T. A. Cash.
Our present weekly rate $159.00 x 52 is $8,268.00. We recommend $8,000.00.
Our Outside Relief for the last four months has been $3,835.97, an average of $959.00 a month. $959.00 x 52 is $11,508.00. We recom- mend $11,500.00.
At the Farm we are carrying 14 people instead of 12 last year, have had 15 or 16 part of the year. One is liable to go out soon and another come in. We do not see any chance of any other reduction so we have 1/6 more to support than last year and recommend $5,500.00 instead of the $5,000.00 we had last year. Our expense for 11 months has been $4865. 28 It was $518.90 in November and in addition we are buying coal this month.
On Incidentals, rent, light, phone we recommend same as last year $400.00.

ANNUAL REPORT
To His Honor the Mayor, and Municipal Council:
GENTLEMEN :
The following is the report of the City Physician, for the months from January, 1924 to December 20, 1924, inclusive.
During this year, the calls for the City Physician have been greatly increased, due I believe to the lack of employment, which has been well known. This has been true, especially in Dodgeville, Hebronville and South Attleboro. I have found that the most of my work has been in these sections, and it has thereby been much harder than in previous years, owing to the distance involved.
Cases coming under my care in Hebronville and in South Attleboro, seldom come to my office; they send for me to call, whether able or not to go themselves, because it takes money for their car-fare, to reach Attle- boro. Both in a medical and financial way, Attleboro is having to care for more and more cases of poor which seem to go back and forth over the State line.
Sooner or later, this will be a serious problem in the southern part of our city.
We still have our same ambulance. The more times it is used, I am sure the greater is the disgust of its users, except in so far as it gets one to his destination. I, myself, have had occasion to ride in it several times this year, and I can vouch that exhaust gas is almost enough to suffocate a patient.
This should be remedied, and I so recommend.
I commend to you the work done by the Overseers of Poor, Associated Charities and District Nurses, in relieving the suffering of the poor and needy of our city, especially those to whom I have had to render medical aid.
In detail is a report of my medical activity :-
299 House Calls
Soldiers' Relief
256 Office Consultations
9 Confinements
23 House Calls
16 Surgical Cases
36 Office Consultations
15 Police Calls
7 Insane Commitments

FIRE PREVENTION.
Fire prevention means special care on the part of everyone by pre- venting the accumulation of waste paper, rubbish, or any other in-flam- mable material in the cellar or about the premises. Care should be taken regarding stove cleaning cloths, oil dust rags and mops. They should never be allowed in a closet where they cause a fire by spontaneous com- bustion.
We believe in the regular inspection of buildings by the members of the Department and shall continue doing this inspection.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
The Board of Fire Engineers recommend that twelve men be added to the permanent force, to take care of the Two-Platoon voted by the City at the last election.
We also recommend the purchase of a pump to take the place of Hose No. 3.
Conditions are bad in Hebronville, most of the men work away from that part of the City, we again recommend permanent men for that sec- tion of the City.
The Two-Platoon going into effect and the off shift men being com- pelled to answer all 2nd alarms, we recommend that a suitable alarm be installed in the Central Fire Station.
We also recommend that the call companies at Sibleville and Briggs Corner be disbanded.

CITY FORESTER
To His Honor the Mayor and Municipal Council:
GENTLEMEN:
I herewith submit my annual report as City Forester for the year ending Dec. 31, 1924.
The annual scouting for the gypsy moths was completed and all gypsy moth eggs found, were creosoted.
The spray pump was kept busy through the caterpillar season parti- cularly on road sides.
Brush cutting was done on all country roadsides as usual.
I found it necessary to remove four large elm trees on North Main Street which were weakened when the white way was installed.
The two wind storms which occured the later part of the summer uprooted several trees and broke a great many limbs on other shade trees which made a large amount of extra work.
I sincerely hope that you will see fit to allow a sufficient sum to do cavity work this coming year.
I recommend that $4850.00 be appropriated for use in the Forestry Department, divided as follows .:
Salary, $1,500.00; Labor, $2,200.00.
Maintenance of Truck, $300.00.
Cavity work, $500.00. Telephone, Insurance and Incidentals, $350.00.

TENTH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT
To the Honorable Mayor and Municipal Council:
City of Attleboro, Massachusetts
GENTLEMEN:
The tenth Annual Report of the Health Department, for the year ending December 31, 1924, is presented herewith, for your consideration. On the page preceding is shown the organization of the department. Ap- pended are tables, statistical reports, and reports of sub-departments.
ORGANIZATION
There have been two changes, only, in the department's personnel during the year. It was necessary for Dr. Edmund M. Webb to dis- continue his services as school dentist on April 1, 1924, because of the fact that no appropriation was provided to carry on the important work, so well administered under his direction, for several years. In July, the resignation of Charles J. Guild as Inspector of Milk and Authorized Agent was received with regret, by the Health Officer. The great value of Mr. Guild's service to this community, during his term of faithful endeavor, cannot be easily estimated at this time, but his loss to the department is very keenly felt. In addition to the careful and painstaking attention which he gave to his laboratory work, and other duties, Mr. Guild render- ed valuable assistance to the department and showed excellent judgment in suggestions of a constructive nature affecting the department's plans. Mr. William P. Lyons was appointed as Mr. Guild's successor, and began his regular duties on September 1, 1924, after a month's apprenticeship with the former inspector.
PRACTICAL DISEASE PREVENTION
The duties of a department having under its charge the health and well being of the municipal population, and the problems with which it has to deal, have undergone a marked development in recent years, and an account of our stewardship at this time might not be clear to all, if mention were not made of some of the many changes which have taken place in disease prevention during the last decade.
It is not so many years ago since practically all the efforts of preven- tive medicine were directed toward sanitation, and the largest work of a health department included the matter of preventing noisome odors, cleaning up accumulations of garbage in back yards, and similar duties, all carried on with a most hopeful expectation of practical results. To this necessary but rather uninteresting function, there was added, as time went on, other departmental duties which called for special attention to the prevention of the spread of communicable diseases through quarantine and disinfection. Quarantine is still an important adjunct in the practice of disease prevention, but the health officials' principal activity, today, is directed toward the necessity of education of the people in matters of hygiene and public health.
The science of preventive medicine has advanced so rapidly that com- munities must be taught some of the newer ideas before they can be proper- ly applied. Practical application of these newer measures in any com- munity and the response of the citizens to an appeal for their recognition and adoption is certain to be reflected later in the death rate; so that the death rate of a city is, to some extent, an expression of the intelligence of the community, as a whole, in its attitude toward the public health.
68
ANNUAL REPORT
We feel that the department has had a very successful year in the campaign of education which it has attempted. The Health Show, public addresses by the Health Officer, the publication of newspaper articles pertaining to health, and the distribution of literature on diphtheria pre- vention have apparently awakened a local interest in modern health ideas. In addition to the usual routine work of this department, noteworthy progress during the year in disease prevention has been accomplished by the introduction of measures having both a practical and an educational value to our citizens. Among such measures, successfully carried out which will be described more in detail further on in this report, may be mentioned: (1) the elimination of sewage from the Ten Mile River, (2) the Health Camp for undernourished children, (3) the Health Show, (4) the organization of the Attleboro Tuberculosis Society, (5) Diphtheria Prevention.
Our city has a good health record for 1924. The death rate has been low in comparison with that of other cities and with that of the U. S. Regis- tration Area. The death rate in the Registration Area of the United States in 1924 was 11.6 per 1000 of population. Attleboro's death rate was 11. per 1000. Our infant mortality also has a favorable comparison with that of other communities.
TUBERCULOSIS
During the year, the Attleboro Tuberculosis Society was organized by this department. This society, during its first year of work, has been of material assistance to the Health Department, especially in the manage- ment of the Health Camp. Its successful efforts, thus far, seem to indi- cate that this organization will be an important factor in future years in carrying out the extensive program of prevention.
During the year the total number of cases of this disease reported to the department was 74; the yearly total of deaths was 39. Excluding non- residents, there were 49 cases reported, with 15 deaths. The death rate from tuberculosis in Massachusetts twenty years ago was about three hundred per one hundred thousand of population. This rate has been cut to less than one hundred per one hundred thousand in the last twenty years.
Of all the communicable diseases, tuberculosis is the most important with which health departments have to deal. The financial loss to this city, alone, in the care of tuberculous cases, is approximately $25,000. annually. In a former report, we stressed the necessity of formulating some plan which might lead to the later adoption of measures directed toward the control of this increasing economic and financial loss. If the situation is to be faced squarely, we must realize that relief for the future will be afforded only by the adoption of means to prevent the development of this disease among children.
The state and counties provide for the care of the incipient as well as for the incurable cases, and the vast sums spent are increasing yearly be- cause of the lack of a much needed system which will afford appropriate treatment for those children who are, without doubt, potential cases of tuberculosis,-the innocent victims to crowd our sanatoria later. The establishment of preventoria will be the final answer to the popular demand that must be created when the citizens are better informed in reference to the truth of the whole matter.
The immediate needs of tuberculosis prevention work, today, are too evident to permit of any argument. The attempt to stem the tide of tuber- culosis deaths, by segregating cases that are in more or less advanced stages of the disease when they are finally admitted to sanatoria, is an expensive,
69
ANNUAL REPORT
incomplete, and inefficient method of attacking this problem. We have plenty of beds for these adult cases in sanatoria. This phase of the pro- blem is well looked after. The patients are well cared for in the hospitals, and after their discharge, a group now numbering thirty thousand or more cases in the state, are kept under necessary and efficient supervision by the follow up work instituted by the State Department of Public Health, tuberculosis leagues, and local health departments. The contacts, espec- ially the children, are being followed up all over the state, but provision for the care of this group is wholly inadequate. The contact cases of no other disease dangerous to the public health, except tuberculosis, would be allowed, by public sentiment, to receive so little consideration. The situation must be met. It is a difficult one because it will entail a large expenditure of funds for building and maintenance of preventoria.
What groups of children are to be treated in the preventorium? There seems to be some doubt in the minds of many, as to proper classifica- tion of children needing treatment in this respect.
It is well to think of them in three groups. First, the frank tuber- culosis case, not common even in older children. The sanatorium is the place for this case. Second,-the underweight child, ten percent or more. Nothing can be demonstrated in the chest, clinically or by X Ray, to warrant a positive diagnosis. That is the case for the summer camp. A few weeks in the summer, under proper supervision, with correction of defects and bad health habits, with proper follow up afterward, will in- crease this child's resistance remarkably. In the third group is included the contact case or the case in whose family tuberculosis has existed. This child has, during a part or all of his short life, been exposed and infected. If under-nourished, a few weeks at a summer camp will do him little good, especially if he returns to a family home life under bad surroundings, whether or not the contact is renewed. It is for this group alone, I believe, that the preventorium should be maintained. It is toward this class more than all the others combined, that preventive efforts should be directed, not for a short time, in a health camp, but over a period of years, in a preventorium, and progress noted. Excellent preventoria are now opera- ting in Toronto, Farmingdale, N. J., lakeside, and our Massachusetts one, the Prendergast at Mattapan. The latter admits only those children who show tuberculous infection or in whose family tuberculosis has existed.
