"| lowed to go out on his usual busi-| ness, unless it involved the handling | of tood, as the disease was not borne | |on the air but required actual con- | | tact to be transmitted. It was known that the rules were broken but evid- | ence to prove these infractions was | | not available. Complaints were re- | | ceived but they were generally an- | | onymous and when asked to appear | as witnesses these communicants | would refuse. As Mrs. Volume said | In describing such a case in her ex-| perience, they did not want to "get | into a scrap with their neighbors." Dr. Williamson said he always in- | vestigated these complaints. He also | said that one difficulty with the pre- sent epidemic, as in the one of the | previous year, was the fact that it | was mild and often no doctor was | {called. One undiagnosed case at | | large wis worse than an infraction of | { quarantine. Seeing that only 10 per | cent. of the population are suscep- | tibfe, most of such children must | have had the disease by this time. Trustee Moore, who has one child now in the isolation hospital with the disease and another under suspicion, | claimed that it was possible that | doctors did not always report cases [to the medical health officer. He also described a case where milk was | delivered and empty bottles taken away, and pointed out that the isola- tion hospital was not screened. He suggested that the school nurse { might at once visit children sent { home from school sick. Inspector | Stuart claimed this was not possible | ! with the present staff and Miss | f Lovick said she generally allowed | three days to pass before visiting | such children. Even then she re- | ceived some rude rebuffs. { Dr. Sands. thought the trouble | would be helped very much if all { children sick with scarlet fever were | sent to the isolation hospital and the cost, if necessary, paid by the city. Practitioners had been urged to do this in the past, but there was no i law for it, Trustee Elliott spoke in favor of {the appointment, perhaps for six months or less, of a special official to see that the quarantine was kept. Dr. Sands referred to the case of a man once appointed in the city to watch a small-pox case. Other officials found him one night enjoy- ing himself in the quarantined home. Dr. Willlamson believed the pro- | per man would be a help. A court action would be of great value in Give Your Child 18 * { THE MUTUAL LIFE 1 a Chance you will. If you die who will ?

Therefore, it is necessary that the things we do should be well con- sidered so that later the memory of that act would not be a reproach to us but a blessing.
