Cleanliness Brings Health (1x23)

Fecha de emisión: Ene 01, 1945

Two families are contrasted - the Clean Family and the Careless Family. The Clean Family maintains a clean house, with food sheltered from flies and pigs confined in fence. The Careless Family, on the other hand, lets their pig and chickens loose to wander in the yard. The careless mother cooks on the floor, which we learn...is...bad. The careless son does even worse by soiling the family's corn crops in the process of relieving his cramps. (The Careless Family is also the Latrineless Family.) When his father sifted the dirt through his fingers "the way a true farmer would", the invisible sickness struck. Simultaneously funny and disgusting, "Cleanliness" is not to be missed.
