172 appendix. only for the good of the people. There is nothing in the world that the Board of Health will make out of it, our only object being to improve the health of the people; and all we ask is that you assist us in this work, and that you obey the health regulations that have already been provided; and I believe that in the course of time you will find a still greater change for the better than there has been in the past. We hope that every one in the audience will take part in these meetings, and if you have any questions that you would like to ask we would be glad to have you do so, and to answer them to the best of our abilitv." The President introduced Dr. S. Westrav Battle, of Ashe-ville, who read an interesting and instructive paper on the Prevention of Tuberculosis, which was well received. Dr. Battle arose and said: '^Ladies and Gentlemen, in making these remarks upon tuberculosis, or consumption, we have come to a subject that interests us all; and in calling the attention of this Board and vourselves to the consideration of the means to prevent this tuberculosis — you can bear in mind, ladies and gentlemen, that when I say tuberculosis I mean consumption in the broad sense of the word — I wish to preface my remarks by disclaiming any motive except a conservative one." SUGGESTIONS OX THE PREVEXTION OF TUBERCULOSIS AS WE KXOW IT TO-DAY. by s. westray battle, m. d., of asiieville, n. c., member oe the north carolina board of health. Mr. Chairman:—In calling the attention of this Board to the consideration of measures to pi'event the spread of the hydra-headed monster, tuberculosis, I wish to preface my remarks by disclaiming any intention of being other than conservative. It is so easy to become an alarmist, and when backed up by bald facts and figures, such as the history of tuberculosis offers, he must be phlegmatic indeed who is not stirred to his inmost soul by the contemplation of the ravages of consumption.
