According to the Public Health Nurse's report for last month the only contagious disease in the tawn was one case of scarlet fever. On a recent visit by the Provin- cial Public Health Inspector com- nment was madle an the healthy con- dition of Bowmanville. It was com- pared with anather town of almast identicai size, the latter place bav- ing 9 cases of diphtheria compared with Bowmanville's one. In two years among the school children of the town there bas flot been a case of diphtheria and there has only been two cases in the last a years among school children. There are no other contagious diseases in the town at the present time. This record is remarkabie and re- flects great credit an the Public Health Nurse and the Medical Offic- er of Health. The constant use of toxoid for immunization against diplitheria is the cause of Bowman- ville's healthy condition, whereas the other town mentioned above bas nat used toxoid and the results are very noticeable. Citizens do well ta take careful notice of the helpful work being carried on by the health officiaIs of the town. Good health is man's greatest blessing and when it can be had sa easily there is na reason why tbis healthy condition should not be maintained. versary of the commencement of the church's work in that section of the City.

HE efirst went out there from Toronto ir September 1889 as a student mis- sionary to South Manitoba. He told of the pioneer days, the log cabini and of the discomforts that the ffirst settlers experienced. He told thumorously of the days when lie did his travelling on borseback or witli sa horse and buggy. S The people of the west, Dr. Mc- Tavish said, were most cheerful op- timists. With each bad crop al- ways came the thought to theix minds that there would be a bumper crop the next year and their char- acters can be summed up in the words, 'they knew flot defeat.' This was perhaps born of the fact that they faced so many trials that good was always bound to come sooner or later. The people were widely known for their wonderful hoseital- ity and lie told of instances in sup- port of this fact. Turnlng to the problemns that con- fronted the west, the speaker sald the f irst could be summed up in the one word "Wheat."1 Owlng ta, the erratic climate the grower 0f wheat neyer knew until bis crop was safe- ly tbreshed that it was safe.

Cart- wright were guests o! the Rotary Club at a banquet in the Town Hall at Blackstock. About eighty were present at the gathering which proved a mast enjoyabie event, and cemented anew many aId f riend- ships as well as many new acquait- ances existing between Rotarians in Bowmanvilie and residents o! Cart- wright. The Rotarians jaurneyed forth by Garton's bus and reaching the out- skirts o! the village they alighted f rom the bus and headed by a gen- uine Scotch piper, kilts and bag- pipes complete, paraded tbraugh the village ta the Town Hall, where the *Cartwright citizens welcomed them. Rev. F. W. Neweil, Minister a! Blackstock United Church, asked the blessing and then wlth Rotar- ians and Cartwright residents sit- ting in alternate chairs ta create a more friendly spirit, a splendid ban- quet was served. To adequately de- scribe the banquet would be a diffi- cuit task but we do know that the aid reference to tables graaning un- der the weight o! catables was far mare applicable ta Rotarians them- selves when they finally got througb eating. Most Rotarlans ate s0 much chic- ken that it is hardiy iikely they will want poultry again until Christmas. With the roast chicken came peas, and potatoes, mountains o! them, turnips, dressing, cabbage saiads, jellies, pickles, rolîs, bread and but- ter; and when this was dlsposed o! appie pie was brougbt on witb not less than hall an inchio! whlpped cream ta cap it off. And that wasn't all. They then passed gorgeous looking cakes after that and even those wbo had already eaten more than enougli could not forego just a taste. Coffee, apples and grapes, completed the menu, some menu! Too much pralse could not be given the members of the Women's Association and Ladies' Aid of the United Churcli for the wonderfui banquet and the !aultiess and gen- erous way it was served.
