General Session of the American Public Health Association, Rochester, N. Y., September 8, 1915 IT IS unnecessary to argue before the American Public Health Association as to the importance of public health education as a factor in the prevention of preventable disease.

Read over this list of sub-titles indicating some of the features of public health education which are discussed by Professor Winslow in this article: "The Monthly Bulletin," Special Bulletin and Circulars," "The Newspapers as a Medium for Public Health Education," "Lecture Service," "Exhibits," and "Mobilizing the Community for Public Health." creased from 24 to 1,228, sanatoria, hospitals and day camps from 115 to 527, dispensaries from 19 to 395. In doing this work the medical and sanitary experts, and particularly the social workers, not only pointed the way to a conquest of the great white plague, but set in motion forces which are revolutionizing the campaign for public- health in every
