STATE BOARDS.
The State Board of Health, consisting of six members appointed by the Governor for a term of six years (aud a secretary elected by the board), has a general super- vision of the interests of life and health of the people of the State. By the coopera- tion of local boards of health, of which there is one in every township, city and village in Michigan, it aims at the suppression and exclusion from the State of the dangerous communicable diseases, especially diphtheria, scarlet fever and small- pox. To this end it publishes and distributes widely, circulars of instructions to local officers and to the general public, for the restriction and prevention of these diseases. It investigates the origin and spread of epidemics of these diseases, and constantly urges upon the local officers the feasibility of preventing such out- breaks, or of confining them within the narrowest limits.
By a frequent distribution of circulars calling attention to the law and asking a return of the name and address of a health officer, the board secures a complete organization of the local boards of health under the law. To the local boards thus organized the State Board issues circulars of instruction as to their powers and duties; and by its advice it aids local boards in their work of regulating and abat- ing nuisances and preventing sickness.
By holding popular sanitary conventions in various parts of the State, the Board seeks, by the aid of leading physicians and other educated men, to interest and instruct the people in measures for the preservation of health, such as the proper heating, ventilating and lighting of dwellings, cars and public buildings; the drain- age and sewerage of towns and of houses; the preservation of a pure water supply; the prevention of adulterations of food ; the restriction of contagious diseases; the sanitary regulation of schools and other kindred subjects.
In connection with the State Board of Corrections and Charities, [the Bcard of Health examines and criticises or approves plans for public buildings authorized by the Legislature to be erected or enlarged. The Board collects statistics of sick- ness and of meteorological conditions, and by a systematic study of these, seeks to learn the causes of diseases, and to elaborate information for the benefit of the people, and especially for the guidance of the legal guardians of the health of the people.
The Board publishes an annual report. It also distributes separate reprints of papers in the report, and of pamphlets on the restriction and prevention of various diseases .- Howell's Annotated Statutes, §§ 1622-1633c.
