House Cleaning
For Health
Austin, Texas,-A good old fash-
ioned spring house cleanin ; in
every city and community in Texas
would do a great deal toward fur- ■
thering good health in this state,
according to Dr. Geo. W. Cox. j
State Health Officer, who said in
Austin today, "From a practical
standpoint the old adage that
'Cleanliness is next to Godliness'
is still well worth emphasizing."
A general clean-up program of
state-wide proportions with the ob-
jective of bettering health condi-
tions for our citizenship should in-
clude surface cleaning, drainage,!
the graveling of streets and alleys,
the cleaning of all parks and play-
grounds and the clearing of weeds
and rubbish off of vacant lots.
"The destruction of mosquito
breeding places and rat harborage,
the proper disposal of garbage and
trash and the general cleaning tip
of all premises," said Dr. Cox,
"will be of inestimable value in
helping to keep down summer
health hazards such as dysentery,
typhoid, and poliomyelitis. Good,
community housekeeping and or-
dinary sanitary measures require
the prompt removal of all waste
matter in and around yards and
homes in order to abate the dan-
ger of such diseases, and insure
good health protection through-
out the State."
Dr. Cox stressed the fact that
many dangerous diseases are
filth-borne, and the only possible
way to control them is to elimi-
nate the unsanitary conditions re-
sponsible for their spread.
