Excerpt from Naval Hygiene The Object of this book is to furnish a text on Naval Hygiene that meets the requirements Of the naval service. The demand for a guide in safeguarding the health of crews has been apparent for many years and has increased as the Navy has expanded in personnel and developed in construction of ships. The author has been an interested Observer of the growth of the Navy and has followed the changing conditions of naval life as they have modified hygienic problems and imposed new and increased Obligations upon naval sanitarians. It has been an interesting period in naval history as the Old navy has given way to the new, and the educational features of the change have been even more marked from a hygienic point of View than from the purely structural or architectural point of View. The modern navy is characterized not only by development in engines of war, but also by development along educational lines. Every branch of the service has increased its educational facilities and is re quiring advanced work in the united effort to promote service efficiency.
