Important as are sanatoriums in mountain and desert, day or night camps
within and near cities, milk and egg clinics, home visiting, change of
air and rest for those who are known to be tuberculous, their
importance is infinitesimal compared with the protection that comes
from clean, healthy environment and natural living for those not known
to be tuberculous. This great fact has been recognized by the various
bodies now engaged in popularizing the truth about tuberculosis by
means of stationary and traveling exhibits, illustrated lectures,
street-car transfers, advertisements, farmers' institutes,
anti-spitting signs in public vehicles and public buildings, board of
health instructions in many languages, magazine stories, and press
reports of conferences. This brilliant campaign of education shows what
can be done by national, state, and county superintendents of schools,
if they will make the most of school hygiene and civics.
