Some rooms in the schools have [more than half the children absent. either on account of having the di- sease, or being from a home which is quarantined. It has been the practise to allow a child to go to school, when a member of the family has the measles, if that child is immune through having had the disease. and if he or she leaves home and stays somewhere else. In some special cases, the patient has been isolated in one room, and the rest of the family have been going out.

F. Hepburn, Provin- cial Liberal Leader, as being unworthy of credence, Premier George S.

Liberal members were each asked by Premier Henry as to how they stand on the Hepburn Leadership, but each in turn dodged the issue without saying whether they supported the Liberal provincial leader or not, satisfied to be non-committal. “If the Liberal party has any sense of responsibility they should recall him! and drive him out as a heretic,” said; Premier Henry. “He is unworthy to bet leader.
