W. Mills and J, B. Cooke. y Following the passing of this re- solution the following resolution, moved by Trustees, J. R. Henderson land J. F. Macdonald was also adopt- led: . | "That the Board of Health be ask- | ed to provide facilities for free vac- i cination of the public school and Col- | legiate Institute pupils." | The letter from the Board of | Health, enclosing the resolution pas- | sed by that body ata meeting held | on December 12th was wead by Sec- | retary John Macdonald, at the open- { Ing of the meeting. It read as fol- lows: "That 'whereas, an epidemic of { smallpox is in certain parts of Onta- | tio, and some cases are within eigh- | teen and" twenty miles of Kingston, hereby requests the | Board of Education, as a preventive | measure to require all teachers and | pupils to be vaccinated, and that all | be requested to show a certiMcate of successful vaccination not later than the opening date for school af- ter the Christmas holidays." Discussion On Question. After the reading of the letter | from the Board of Health, Trustee | Mills said that he understood that it | was not a compulsory matter, and { moved the resolution already refer- { red to. | Trustee J. B. Cooke said he favored | the resolution of Trustee ) ills, and | pointed out that if it w compul- | sory, that the city couneil should | take some action in the matter. He { felt that the matter should have gone { from the Board of Health to the city | couneil, | Miss Mowat asked if the Board could not ask the city council tc make vaccination compulsory, where- upon the chairman remarked that he did not see anything in ths way tc prevent the board from making an; recommendation it might see fit te make to the city council. Trustee Lemmon believed that it | | i | a 2 | was the duty of the Board of Healty Memeo 001 20 take She responsibility in making vaccination compulsory, Trustee Godwin questioned whet- ber or a%t the Board of Health had the power to compel the Board oi Education 'to enforce vaccination, Some years ago, when not a membe.d of the Board, he had refused to be vaccinated, or have the members of || his family Yaceinatod but now, as a member of the rd, he felt he hac a responsibility to meet, and yet he did not know if vaccination was nes cessary. E Secretary Macdonald read the law on the matter which gives the medi: cal authorities power where it is deemed necessary, to require thai certificates. of vaccination be -ealjec for Inside of a period of seven years. Trustee Minnes- felt that the reso lution, as presented by Trustee Mills would meet the requirements. t was up to the Board of Health to take action to make vaccination compul . sory. Inspector Stuart drew the atten tion of the members to one point i Zpgard to the matter, and that hac to do with the teachers. The resold | tion from the Board of Health aske( that the teachers be vaccinated a: well as the scholars. The Board of Health had ne authority over thi teachers who were employed by the Board of Education, although the; URS. Ladies' Hudson Seal Coats and Sleigh Robes row » did have control of the children. The teachers might object to being vac. cinated. Trustee Macdonald stated that the Senate of Queen's University had re- ceived a request along the same lines from the Board of Health, and that body had recommended that students travelling for the holidays be vacei- tated. E Secretary Macdonald 'said he had telephoned the. medical health offi- cer, as he had anticipated a discus- sion on the question, and that the medical health officer had informed him that the communication. from the Board of Health was not an or- der, but simply a request. * Classes for Engineers.

Dr. Adam Shortt was the speaker at the weekly meeting of the Arts ind Letters Club, Ottawa. His sub- J8ct was "Some Causes of the Pres- ent Social Unrest," and he pointed out the fallacy of believing that it vas possible to impose on one nation he ideals and institutions of Anoth- ir nation. His address was extremely nterdsting to a student of social de- velopment, dealing as it did with the historical roots of the present inrest. He pointed to condftions now existing in the world, and went back 0 Greece' and Rome for the lessors of the present. The conversative element in soci- ety, he sald, would counteract the revolutionary element; Anglo-Sax- pons had developed democracy p but it was a democracy in, which the people did not govern. It was a government of tolerance. The effort of Rome to | set up Greece was a failure, showing -hat one nation could not impose its systems and institutions on another. That fact had a lesson for today. Tt] was a fallacy to think that nations | could be changed. Different national deals could not be absorbed by an- sther. Nor was there any permanent ondition in.any nation. Dr. Shortt | touched on socialism. He sald social- | ist utterances were largely destruc- ive, and attacked tite present sys-| em of society. Why not propose a iystem "for Avhich everyone could | ~#ork? In Canada they were fortun- | ate in having a stability which would | stand the country in good stead. The | loctrine that all wealth was the pro- duet of labor was one calculated to [>2use unrest. DF." Shortt said that until we had grasped the fundamental principles | of the condition of society in na- tions we could not feel sure of the futare. When those principles were srasped_they could 188 down the fu- ture strhcture of nations. ST. GEORGE'S MISSION SALE. A Successful Event Held on Wednes- day Evening. = .
