The final resolution of the Board was moved by H. Morin and seconded by T. F.

At a meeting of the Board of Health on Monday, Dr. George, Disâ€" triet Medical Health Officer, was preâ€" sent, and reference was made to the serious outbreak here of smallpox. It was decided that all school children should be vacceinated, and in case any should refuse to accept this plan for safety such children should not be permitted to attend school. _ All children must be vaceinated before October 25th, or they will have to reâ€" main chome from school. This meaâ€" sure is being taken for the protection of the public and toâ€"avoid the danger: of a widespread epidemic of smallpox.
