36 NOKTFJ CAROLINA BOARD OF HEALTH. In this connection yon will be interested to know that in September last I received a letter fron) the Rev. Phillips Yerner, of South Carolina, a worthy grandson of the late Charles Phillips, D. D., for so many years the distinguished Professor of Mathematics in our University, who expected to go shortly as a missionary of the Presbyterian Church to the Kassai river country, in the Congo Free State, asking for the publications of our Board on the subject of malaria, and promising to send us the result of his observations and experience in that pestilential valley. If it should turn out that the saving of the life of even one of the noble men who have taken their lives in their hands for God and humanity is accomplished, we might well feel that our labors have not been in vain. AVhether it is attributable directly or indirectly to our stirrino; of the waters, it is none the less a srratifvin^ fact that a Social Science Club established at Trinity Collese t/ c5 has taken up the subject of sanitation. The request of its Secretary for any literature we might have was, it goes without saying, gladly honored to the fullest extent of our ability, and our satisfaction was still further deepened by reading in the papers an excellent article on the general subject by Professor Dowd, the President of the Club. It is to be hoped that all our institutions will, as years go by, while not relaxing their efforts for the development of the "mens sana^-'' lay more and more stress on the "corpore sano^'' not only by a judicious encouragement of athletics, but by giving instruction as to the means of preventing those ills to which all llesh is heir and before which the strongest%athlete, M'hen once in their clutches, is liable to be '' downed " forever. health conference at washington.
