Teutonic Scandinavian, Sc1Avic extraction dread
prefer to inocuac their children with the disease
to allowing vaccination. Everyone who has tray
eled or resided in the German or French provinces,
in Uanubinn Alstriu and the Prncipaiities, South
crn Russia, anu Lower Canada, where descendants
OF the French still in the majority, know this
to be fact. In this city Of mixed nationalitics,
Esquimaux have found IN abiding place, it is al-
most impossible to enforce vaccination; hence we
are always more or less in danger Of spread of
places OF large cities where the ignorant dirty
classes abound The vigilance of our Health Board,
which has hitherto had a keen, progressive man ut
unusually able and energetic executive officer in Dr.
johnson. has hitherto Kept the dend within limits.
A sharp lookout Is being maintained.
