children systematically in this day's work is proper. These 

 little hands love to help, and they can accomplish much and will 

 learn thereby to keep up and advance the work now being in- 

 augurated. 



'"The tag-day is commendable, and will stand out as an event 

 unique in the history of anti-mosquito campaigns. The scientific 

 apparatus, which will greatly facilitate the progress of demon- 

 stration and control, has arrived, and will be installed in a suit- 

 able laboratory as soon as possible. Charts and drawings illus- 

 trating the life history of mosquitoes and their relation to public 

 health, will be placed upon the walls, and exhibits of the living 

 insects will always be on hand. The public will be welcome to 

 visit the laboratory during certain hours.'" 



Other Publications Used. -- Besides the local press, 

 which published frequent articles on mosquito control, 

 several publications were used and widely distributed, 

 among them the California State Board of Health 

 Monthly Bulletins, especially of the July, 1910, issue, 

 containing a paper by the writer on "How to control 

 Mosquitoes, with Special Reference to Anopheles." 

 The May Bulletin was also widely circulated on 

 account of the article entitled "How to control the 

 Common House Fly," as was also the November 

 Bulletin with a paper on "Anti-mosquito Organiza- 

 tions in California." 



A printed address entitled "Protecting California's 

 Health Resources through the Control of Disease- 

 bearing Insects," delivered before the Commonwealth 

 Club at San Francisco, was found useful, inasmuch as 

 it touches upon the value of this work to the State.
