REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :


We respectfully submit to you this report of the ac- tivities of the Board of Health for 1929.


Health conditions have been exceptionally good this year, as the report of our agent and health nurse will show.


There has been a decreasing number of cases of contagious diseases. We are glad to note that diphtheria is on the decline, and we take particular pride in the fact that, with the hearty cooperation of all the school auth- orities of the Town, we have taken a decisive step toward the eradication of the dread disease. We conducted a very successful Toxin Antitoxin Clinic and inoculated, and we hope, immunized 612 children, from babies 10 children 10 years old. We recommend a continuation of these clinics and a follow-up by Schick Test of those al- ready inoculated. It is with gratification for us to see that all children afflicted with diphtheria this year had not re- ceived the Toxin Antitoxin immunization.


The pupils of private schools did this year, get the benefit of a thorough physical examination. One of the greatest problems with most of these children was the care of teeth and ve recommend that a few hours be added to the dental clinic so as to take care of a larger number of children and we hope the Finance Commit- tee will see the wisdom of granting the department the


-90-


additional dollars to carry on that work.


The tuberculosis clinics have been conducted every Monday from 4:00 to 6:00 P. M. Unfortunately those clinics are not attended as they should be, although they could be of great benefit. We, however, have a follow-up system of ex-sanatorium patients, and of all contacts.


A detailed account of the different activities fol- lows and will give you a better understanding of the work done.


We feel confident that everything in our power, with the means at our disposition has been done to make Southbridge as sanitary and as healthy a town as pos- sible, and it is with that feeling of work well done, that we submit this report to your honorable Board.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH NURSE


To the Honorable Board of Health :


-- Gentlemen :-


I hereby submit my report as Board of Health Nurse for the year 1929.


During the month of May, the Board of Health sponsored toxin anti-toxin clinics for the prevention of diphtheria. Dr. Page, chairman of the Board of Health, assisted by Dr. Miner, district health officer, gave the treatment which consisted of three injections of fluid, one week apart. Any child from the age of six months to twelve years, who presented a request slip signed by parent or guardian, received the treatment. Over six hundred children attended each clinic, which proves that parents are anxious to avail themselves of the op- portunity to protect their children. It is estimated that eighty-five per cent of these children will be immuned to diphtheria. The success of these clinics is due 'to the splendid cooperation of the public and parochial school departments, plus the services rendered by public spirit- ed ladies.


The Chadwick clinic, formerly called the Children's Examination Clinic, was held in April. Dr. Martin, State clinician, examined these children, and recommended treatment accordingly. Every month these children are weighed and measured every six months. Parents are in- terviewed concerning general care.

cal dentists each served a month, following as near as possible the State Dental recommendations. Dental cer- tificates were issued to the children who had clean mouths, up to standard. A certificate should mean (a) The mouth as clean as possible with special attention given to food and tartar. (b) All cavities should be prop- eily treated. (c) Special attention given to all pits and fissures in deciduous and permanent teeth. (d) All abs- cessed temporary teeth extracted.

The tubercular work in the community consists of visiting homes, keeping patients informed concerning


-98-


personal hygiene, rest and diet. To teach contacts to pro- tect themselves, and to urge persons with symptoms, to visit the family doctor, and have a complete physical examination. The examination is most important since we know the early diagnosis is the only way to arrest the disease.


The tuberculosis dispensary in the Town Hall was opened every Monday night from five to seven p. m., un- til the first of November, then the hours were changed to from four to six p. m.

-100-


none of a drastic nature except the change from light to extra heavy soil pipe, this is now used in almost every city and town in the State. The other changes were made to clear up the old by-laws.

REPORT OF MILK INSPECTOR


To the Board of Health :


Gentlemen :


Herewith is my report as your Inspector of Milk for the year ending December 31, 1929.


During the year I have issued the following licenses :


Peddlers Licenses 37


Store Licenses 12


Oleomargarine Licenses


7


Pasteurizing Licenses 1


I have turned over to the Town Treasurer the sum of $38.00 received for these licenses.


One pasteurizing plant was established this year, a move in the right direction, as in many towns rules are made that all milk sold must be either pasteurized or from cows which have shown from tests that they are free from tuberculosis.


This winter, in company with a representative from the Department of Agriculture, a clean milk survey was taken and while the results show some laxity on the part of the dairymen, the tests showing some dirty milk, it brought out the exact conditions and all of the milkmen arc striving and will correct the fault, and the public will get cleaner milk. This survey was purely educational.


Thanking the farmers, the public and the Board of Health for their cooperation,


I am, respectfully yours, ALBERT R. BROWN,


Inspector of Milk

REPORT OF BOARD OF PUBLIC WELFARE


Herman J. Lamothe, Chairman: Ovila Trahan. Clerk: Napoleon Blanchard, Herbert H. Michon, Agent; Joseph N. Payant. Warden of Infirmary. To the Citizens of Southbridge:


During the year 1929 the industrial conditions were somewhat improved, but the demands upon the Board of Public Welfare were numerous and in many cases urgent. as in the past, lack of work being the main cause. Hospital cases were also numerous, in many cases, ap- SEcants unable to pay. were made self-supporting by hospital treatments.


Again this year the cooperation of the manufactur- er, contractors and many others has been a great help in many ways to this department in reducing expendi- tures, the Board and Agent take this opportunity to thank you all.


On December 31 we had om hand 419 cords of wood. more than half of this wood was cut by able-bod- ied applicants to this Department.


Aid was given as follows:


Families aided in town 131


Families aided out of town (holding sett. in town

REPORT OF THE CEMETERY COMMITTEE


The Cemetery Department has been fortunate dur- ing the past year in being able to make a number of meed- ed permanent improvements. The most notable of these being the e. ection of a permanent fente along the Coombs Street border. This fence replaced an old brok- en down some wall that Has been a source of ammorance


mot only to us but to those owning homes bordering on our land. This fence will last indefinitely and we hope to plant something of a vine nature that will run over it thereby adding to the general appearance of this part. It has been difficult to maintain what is known as the old part in a well kept conditor. This has been due largely to the fact that most of the memorials were erected in this section a great many years ago. As time went on they would tip and in some cases break. The procedure in the past has been to take care of the stores that were in the worst condition letting the others go. Three years ago we gave a certain amount of time ex- clusively to straightening sitzes. lining up the whole section. During this period we have covered nearly all the old part. This has greatly improved this section gir- ing it & neat. weil kept appearance. A number of the drains have been neglected. this year we have taken them all up, cleaned them and replaced new pipe where needed. The Perpetual Care lots have been periodically checked over, graves graded and stones straightened Where it was found necessary. The care lots were momed. raked and trimmed every two weeks during the summer. We have given &s mich amertion as possible to the non- care lots and the drives in the effort to have the ceme-


-112-


tery present to those going there a well kept appearance. Five weeks was spent in the Cole lot cutting out what urderbrush had grown during the year and removing the trees that had died. Special attention was given to the section specified by Miss Hannah M. Edwards in a fund created by her for the care of this part. We deep- ly appreciate the gifts of Miss Cole and Miss Edwards, it is our constant endeavor to fulfill the conditions speci- fied when these funds were created. We also appreciate the interest shown by Hon. Calvin D. Paige in beautify- ing the Everett Street and the Main Street entraces to the cemetery. There were nine lots sold during the year. Nine lots accepted for Perpetual Care. The amount collected by the Cemetery Department from all sources was $1,465.30.
