Superintendent of Lodging House Inspection, W. W. MCCULLOCH, Chicago. NOTE. Since the last compilation of the Illinois Public Health Laws in 1907, many important changes have been made that are of special interest at this time to the people of this State. One of these changes involves the creation of the Department of Public Health which has been invested with greater powers than were possessed by its predecessor and which is permitted to be organized along better methods of efficiency than were formerly possible. The present compilation consists of laws which have a direct bearing upon and are enforced through the Department of Public Health and of laws which have a general relation to the public health of this State but which are enforced through some other public agency or officer. In either case, the Department of Public Health, as it is now constituted, is vitally interested not only in the nature and scope of these laws but also in their proper observance and enforcement.
