REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH.
The Board of Health respectfully submits the following report for the year ending December 31, 1913.
The Board consisting of Dr. Guy E. Sanger, Dr. Laurence L. Peirce and Alfred H. Knowles held its first meeting March 19, 1913, at which time Dr. Peirce having been re-elected for a term of three years was sworn to the faithful performance of his duties by the Town Clerk.
The Board organized for the year as follows: Dr. Laurence L. Peirce, Chairman; Thomas J. Robinson, Clerk.
The general health of the Town continues to be free, compara- tively speaking, from contagious and infectious diseases.
In the table of statistics, making a part of this report, will be found a classification of all diseases causing deaths during the year.
COLLECTION OF OFFAL AND ASHES.
The collection of offal and ashes still continues to be a question on which the Board is undecided as to the most efficient and economical manner of collecting. As the Town increases in population and with the opening up of new streets the cost each year for this work must necessarily increase, and the Board is now considering the advisability of changing the methods of collection, with a view of increasing the service and reducing, if possible, the cost.
The work still continues to be done by the Highway Depart- ment, at a cost of one dollar and seventy-five ($1.75) per day per horse. The Board is of the opinion that until some different arrangements can be made the cost to the Town for this work cannot be reduced.
LABORATORY.
This is the first time that the Board of Health has had at its disposal a laboratory, the same having been provided by the Misses Robbins in the new Town Hall Building. This laboratory, which is as fully and as well equipped as any in any town or city
456
457
BOARD OF HEALTH
in the State has placed the Board in a position to give quick and efficient service to the physicians and citizens of the Town in the diagnosis of all contagious diseases, and is a distinct and important step in the advancement of the control of health conditions.
At a meeting held April 4, 1913, Dr. Merrill E. Champion was appointed Bacteriologist of the Board, and has rendered very efficient services as such.
Physicians can leave at any time, at the Board of Health Room, specimens to be examined, and know that they will receive prompt attention. At such times as the Town Hall is closed arrangements have been made to have such matter left at the Whittemore Pharmacy, where a small incubator has been placed to take care of the same until Dr. Champion may call.
For further detail in regard to the Laboratory see report of Dr. Champion.
SANITARY CONDITIONS.
Working in conjunction with the Board of Public Works in the installation of sewers in all streets where sewers have not previously been laid the Board is insisting that all buildings on these streets be connected with the sewer. While there are many streets in the Town where sewers are not laid, the sanitary conditions of these buildings are not such as to cause any alarm. All complaints received are promptly cared for by the Sanitary Inspector, and in all cases the orders of the Board have been complied with and the cause of the complaints removed.
On the whole the sanitary conditions of the Town are very good.
CONTAGIOUS DISEASES.
Under Chapter 213 of the Acts of 1902, as amended, the Town is liable for all contagious diseases. The treatment of these diseases is a difficult one to determine and its cost to estimate, as were an epidemic of any of these diseases to break out in our midst the cost could hardly be determined.
During the past year $950 has been paid for the care of these cases, with but very slight reimbursement.
As recommended last year the Board is of the opinion that a contagious disease account should be established, against which all such charges could be entered.
458
ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
BOARDING HOUSES FOR INFANTS.
The law governing the licensing of parties to board infants does not give the Board authority over places where but one infant under two years is boarded. The license calls for two or more infants and it is only in such places that the Board can have any knowledge or control.
As reported in previous years the premises of all applicants are first inspected by the Plumbing Inspector who determines whether or not the premises are in a sanitary condition. During the year the Board has given its approval to applications for licenses to board infants or children as follows: St. Johns House for Children, 18 Claremont Avenue; Mary E. Hallice, 45 Teel Street; Georgianna Fouquet, 51 Teel Street; Emma L. Hill, 17 Cottage Avenue; Severius Verrette, 14 Cottage Avenue; Lucy Rourke, 39 Henderson Street.
INSPECTORS APPOINTED.
On April 1, 1913, the following appointments were made by the Board, to serve for the year ending March 31, 1914: Plumbing Inspector (under Civil Service), George W. Day; Sanitary In- spector and Fumigator, Charles T. Hartwell; Inspector of Slaugh- tering and Markets, Dr. W. T. McCarty; Inspector of Milk, Dr. Laurence L. Peirce; Bacteriologist, Dr. Merrill E. Champion.
The Board desires to record its appreciation of the efficient services rendered by these appointees during the past year.
For detailed reports of the various departments see the reports at the end of this report.
LAURENCE L. PEIRCE, ALFRED H. KNOWLES, GUY E. SANGER.

SEC. 4. No person shall remove or permit to be removed from any house or apartment upon which a placard has been placed, as provided in Section 3, any clothing, books or other property, without a permit from the Board of Health; nor after a house is established as a hospital, under provisions of Chapter 80 of the Public Statutes, shall any occupant of such house take up a residence elsewhere without such permit. No public or circulating library book shall be taken into any house or apartment whereon a placard has been placed, as provided in Section 3, before the authorized removal of said placard. All books, papers, toys and other articles in a room where there is a person sick with scarlet fever or diphtheria which cannot be thor- oughly disinfected must be destroyed.

460
ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
wherever it may occur in said sections, the words - declared by the State Board of Health to be, - so as to read as follows: Section 49. A house- holder who knows that a person in his family or house is sick of smallpox, diphtheria, scarlet fever or any other infectious or contagious disease declared by the State Board of Health to be dangerous to the public health shall forth- with give notice thereof to the Board of Health of the city or town in which he dwells. Upon the death, recovery or removal of such person, the householder shall disinfect to the satisfaction of the Board such rooms of his house and articles therein, as, in the opinion of the Board, have been exposed to infection or contagion. Should one or both eyes of an infant become inflamed, swollen and red and show an unnatural discharge at any time within two weeks after its birth, it shall be the duty of the nurse, relative or other attendant having charge of such infant to report in writing within six hours thereafter, to the Board of Health of the city or town in which the parents of the infant reside, the fact that such inflammation, swelling and redness of the eyes and unnatural discharge exist. On receipt of such report, or of notice of the same symptoms given by a physician as provided by the following section, the Board of Health shall take such immediate action as it may deem necessary in order that blindness may be prevented. Whoever violates the provisions of this section shall be punished by a fine of not more than one hundred dollars. SECTION 50. If a physician knows that a person whom he is called to visit is infected with smallpox, diphtheria, scarlet fever or any other disease declared by the State Board of Health to be dangerous to the public health, or if one or both eyes of an infant whom or whose mother he is called to visit become inflamed, swollen or red, and show an unnatural discharge within two weeks after the birth of such an infant, he shall immediately give notice thereof in writing over his own signature to the Selectmen or Board of Health of the town; and if he refuses or neglects to give such notice, he shall forfeit not less than fifty or more than two hundred dollars for each offense. SECTION 52. If the Board of Health of a city or town has had notice of a case of smallpox, diphtheria, scarlet fever or any other disease declared by the State Board of Health to be dangerous to the public health therein, it shall within twenty-four hours there- after give notice thereof to the State Board of Health stating the name and location of the patient so afflicted, and the secretary thereof shall forthwith transmit a copy of such notice to the State Board of Charity.
SEC. 2. This act shall take effect upon its passage. [Approved June 6, 1907.]
VACCINATION.
Chap. 75, Sec. 136. A parent or guardian who neglects to cause his child or ward to be vaccinated before the child or ward attains the age of two years, except as provided in section one hundred and thirty-nine, shall forfeit five dollars for every year during which such neglect continues.
NOTE. Section 139, referred to above, exempts children who present a certificate signed by a registered physician that they are unfit subjects for vaccination. Application for free vaccination by persons who are unable to pay for it may be made to the Clerk or Agent of the Board of Health.
461
BOARD OF HEALTH
Chap. 75, Sec. 137. The Board of Health of a city or town, if in its opinion it is necessary for the public health or safety, shall require and enforce the vaccination and revaccination of all the inhabitants thereof and shall provide them with the means of free vaccination. Whoever, being over twenty-one years of age and not under guardianship, refuses or neglects to comply with such requirement, shall forfeit five dollars.
VITAL STATISTICS.
