When = Question 'of Granting "Medical Officer An Honorarium of $500 Came Up--Dr. Evans Walked Out and" Left Board Without Quorum. ~ The question of granting an honor- arium of $00 to br. Bell, the medi- cal health officer, caused quite a lively tilt, at a meeting of the board: of health, yesterday afternoon, and asa result, the board adjourned without taking any action. Another meeting of the board was ealled for this after- noon, The question which' caused all the trouble was brought up after some minor matters had been' dealt withe At the last meeting of the board, it will be remembered that "the matter of granting the medical health officer the sum mentioned was discussed, but no action was taken. It was to have been - discussed at another meeting called for Tuesday afternoon, but no meeting was beld, as a quorum could not be kecured. 'When the matter came 8p at yester- day's . meeting, those present were Chaivman Corbett, Dr. Etherington, Dr. Evans and John Lemmon. A let- ter from Dr. Bell was read, in which the latter referred to the twelve cases which he had to attend to at the iso- lation hospital. The doctor pointed out the extra amount of work this brought about, and left it with the board to sgv whether © or not he should receive extra pay for his work. He pointed out that in 1903, when there were only three cases in the iso- lation hospital to he, cared for, that the sum of $331.50 had been expended for medical attendance. Dr. Etherington moved that no ac- tion he taken in the matter at the present time, but his mofion was not seconded. Dr, Evans immediately arose to dis- cuss the question, when De. Ethering- ton interrupted by stating that if there was no motion to be made in regard to the matter, that he did not intend to stay at the me eting all af- ternoon, to hear it discussed. "I do nog think that it is right that I should be choked off in this man- ner," said Dr. Evans. "But you have motion," said the chairman, "and there should one. 1 am not choking you off." "But that is what I would call it," added Dr. Evans. "Surely the mat- ter can be discussed. 1 have been on this board for three years, and we have always been given the privilege of discussing any matter. We do not need to have a motion, as have not been following parliamentary pro- cedure. We have always been given a certain latitude." Pro Evans walked out of the mittee room, stating that if he could not have the privilege of speaking on the question, he would cetive irom the meeting. "I move that we adjourn said Dr. Etherington, and was not a quorum with the members left, the meefing broke up rather hur viedly. Later in the afternoon, meeting of the board was called this (Friday) afternoon.
