‘1'] rlvnuifih J W: The first of July celebration in Lindsay on Dominion Day, will again be under the auspices of the I. 0.0.F. Messrs. Gregory and Greer, the experienced and reliable managegn will again cater to the pleasure of the citizens of Lindsay and county of Victoria. ' Lindsay again be 0.0 F. the exper will agaj the citiu (Toronto 8128:). Africa has not spoiled their taste for those battles of peace which know no armistice. self. The sermon contained a good deal of wholesome advice on how a. congregation should get along with each other and with their pastor. Mr. Hendersan made a good impres- sion. Of him a. leading member of his congregation said on Monday : “Not oratoricaJ or demonstrative, but thoughtful and deliberate. Mr. Henderson is a. man who will have something to say, a. man who knows well what it is and how to say it efiectively.” â€"Rev. G. W. Conners of Bobcay-‘ geon will lecture in the Baptist church on Friday night. Subject :- “'file Fallacies of Christian Science." --The Maéons attended church at St. Paul’s on Sunday morning. Rev. W. L. Armitage of Peterboro preach- ed able sermons, morning and night. â€"The Canadian. Order of‘ Foresters attended church at the Queen-st on Sunday evening. Rev. Mr. Strike preached an appropriate sermon. â€"Rev. G. W. Henderson the new pastor of Cambridgeâ€"st Methodist church preached twice on Sunday. In his morning sermon he admonished the congregation not to come to him with tales about each other nor re- tail his defects to other than him- be he a doctor or a layman. The town has already summed enough by that. t is a time to see that the doctors promptly repart every case of fever, that the sanitary inspector placard all the houses in which they occur, and that the medical health oflicer dispense with his.private op- inions and enforce the statute with- out regard to the pockets of either physicians or business men. In the eye of the law these are none of his afiairs, andhis anxiety for them is poor excuse for the desolated homes into which professional neglect has ushered death. The words of the medical health of- ficer have reinforced the spread of the malady, in confirming the susâ€" picion that upon the doctors of the town rests the responsibility for the terrible disease that now appals the town. His words also prove that there is passive conspiracy between himself and the other doctors to let the scourge prevail. They do not reâ€" port ; he defends them. Some in- fected houses are not i-lacanded ; he says it would be better if none were. Meanwhile the disease is spren’ding, schools and public library are being closed and homes riasoiuted. We want to support those members of the Board of Health who are demand- ing more vigorous measures and the enforcement of the law. It is no time to listen to any man’s whims er cases of fever if no houses were placarded at all. Coding from a doctor who not a week ago told the board that the spread of the disease was due to the failure of attending physicians to report. the last state- ment is incomprehensible. Dr. McAlpine makes three proposi- tions : he says that, doctors must be excused if, to retain their volume of business, they fail to report cases of fever ; that houses on Kent-st should not be placarded for fear of hurting the business of those who occupy them ; and that there would be fewâ€" the point of comparative inaction ; and now the medical health officer comes forth with theories that will certainly not tend to help matters or check this malignant malady. At the last meeting of the Board ‘bf Health, Dr. McAlpine set ‘forth propositions that the public should look into. If they are defensible they should be generally adopted ; if they are not the medical health officer should resign his position. The doctors have been and are neg- ligent in reporting new cam; in fact. the medical health oflicer says that the prevalance :0f the disease is the direct result of that negligence; the Board of Health has been dilatory to The situation, however, is not of itself so serious as the attitude of the men who should cope with it. Scarlet fever‘ is not epidemic in Lindsay. but it is sufficiently pre- valent, and of such malignant type. as to justify a. large degree of uneasâ€" iness among the people, and active measures for its repression by the oflicials. There have been twenty- flve or thirty cases within perhaps six weeks ; of these cases more than 30 percent have proved fatal. These facts, and the continued spread of the disease render the situation ser- ious enough.
