Excerpt from The Triumph of American Medicine in the Construction of the Panama Canal In his great work - the reclamation of the pestilence breeding neck of land which binds together the two portions of our Continent - Colonel W. C. Gorgas, U. S. A., Chief Sanitary Officer, Isthmian Canal Commission, has contributed another and a most important chapter to the growing volume of sanitary science. He has demonstrated beyond question the efficiency of an organized system of sanitation, in a field presenting all of the difficulties and all of the destructive influences which characterize territorial areas in the tropics. He has shown that, despite the normal conditions of perverted states of health, the offspring of soil and climatic conditions, these lands of our globe may be so purged of disease and purified by systems of sanitation that they will assume in all respects the states of health belonging to a temperate clime. His work marks an epoch in the progress of the world, and teaches a lesson that "he who runs may read." It inculcates in forceful manner the important place instruction in sanitary science should have in all institutions devoted to the education of the growing race, beginning in elementary form in the schools of the young and carried to the most advanced degree in our colleges, so that the simple yet great principles of hygiene should be a part of the knowledge of every citizen whose civic obligations and duties make him a factor in the prevention of disease and in the conservation of the public health.
