Excerpt from Proceedings of the Seventh Annual Conference of Sanitary Officers of the State of New York: Held at Convention Hall, Buffalo, October 16-18, 1907A welcome so cordial, so generous, and so keenly intelligent renders it difficult to adequately express our appreciation It is not a welcome of words alone, it is a welcome of deeds, for we all recognize the enthusiastic work that has been done by Dr. Wende and his associates and the public-spirited citizens of Buffalo, without which one-half of the in¿uence and effect of this Conference of ours would never be attained. I think we can congratulate the city of Buffalo on its public-spirited mayor, on its efficient health officer, and on the intelligent (co-operation of its citizens in sanitary work.I believe that this welcome of yours, carrying with it the idea of efficiency in sanitation, will reach out through the State and be of the greatest educational value in our future work. Gentle men, I thank you for your welcome.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
