infant child of their 1j-year-old

School Beard 10 Decide Upon vaccination.

The school board is to meet, today,
for the purpose of deciding whether
they will enforce the city ordinance in
regard TO the attendance of children at
school who have not been vaccinated.
There seems to be an opinion among
the physicians and the people that the
ordinance that provides that no child
shall attend public school who has
net been yaccinated, should be enforc-
ed. The board of health does not care
to enforce this without the vote OF the
school board TO that effect. should
there be a case of smallpox in the city
and the scholars are not all previously
vaecinated. it would become their duty.
so the board of health thinks, to close
