DANGER WILD CLOTHING
Health Commissioner Issues Warn
. ing; Against School Practice.
OBJECTS TO "PAPEE SHOWERS"
Some Schools Have a Practice of Col
lect Ins; Old Paper aad Clothes
to Sell for. the Purpose of
v Raising Fanda. ,
Warning the Board of Education against
the danger of "paper showers" and the
practice of accepting old clothing in the
schools to sell In order to rsJse money to
purchase pictures, Dr. . R. W. Connell,
health commissioner, declares that In
old clothing Is the danger of communi
cating some deadly contagious disease:
"While I have been unable to prove it,"
said Dr. Connell, "I am absolutely cer
tain thst scarlet fever and diphtheria,
and even more serious disease have been
contracted from perfectly new clothing,
Which was made In sweat shops or unsan
itary manufactories."
Dr. Connell says, in his opinion, laws
will ultimately be passed compelling dry
goods houses to fumigate clothes before
selling them. This regulation, he believes,
will arise out of the necessity of throw
ing alt the health safeguards' possible
about citizens and especially little chil
dren. "I am Informed there is contemplated
a paper shower at the Columbian school
Friday." writes the health , commissioner
to E. 17. Graff, superintendent of schools,
"and that other schools art to have the
jsame in the near future. This Is some
t thing that should not be allowed, as there
Is danger of bringing Into the school some
contagious disease, even if the papers are
not brought Into the school building.
I "I ! respectfully suggest that ou lssu
an order to all principals not to allow
anything In the shape of a paper shower
or rummage donation of clothing at or
in any public school."
Benefits Too Small.
Dr. Connell believes the small sum of
money raised by this means is inconse
quential when compared with the danger
of starting a contagion. .
It has been the yearly pructlce in the
schools to accept donations of magaaines,
old books and clothing and sell them at
rummage sales, and then to invest the
proceeds in pictures for- the school rooms.
" Even if these things were kept in a
separate building," said Dr. Connell,
"there is danger of a contagion unless
they are thoroughly fumigated. If the
principals persist In the practice we must
compel them to receive the goods In a
separate building by a person who will
thoroughly fumigate them and not per
mit children to handle or e near the old
clothes or magazines."
Superintendent Graff will notify prin
cipals of the warning arid urge great
caution.
Dr. Connell says that never since he
has been In Omaha has there been so
few cases of contagious disease. During
October, 1911, there were, up to the 23d,
fifty cases of diphtheria, and this was
no larger than the number reported for
the same month in previous yews.
This year, however, ' there have been
but seven case reported, and they have
been quickly isolated so that the danger
of a serious contagion was minimised.
