The outbreak of scarlet fever in the
town of Gardner and the village of
Oakdale, as reported in The Spy. has
attracted the attention of the phYsi-
clans of this town. 1t is of especial
interest to the members of the board
of health, inasmuch as it goes to prove
they took the right stand in saying
that the sanitary condition of North
Brookfield was as good as that of ether
towns, and was not responsible for the
epidemic of infectious diseases. How
ever, the eDlQenllC now SeeIIlS W IiING
been thoroughly stamped out. There is
but one case of diphtheria here, and
that of a very mild nature. This is the
daughter of Henry Hatch of Willow
street. and it is thought that the house
NAV be fumigated in a short time. Two
very light cases of scarlet fever are
also existing, but no fear is expressed
as to the outcome or the spread of the
disease.
Deputy Sheriff John p. Ranger has
served a writ to replevin a horse from
Henry Deland, at the instigation of

deeming this amount sufficient, Deland
kept the horse. The case will be heard
by Trial Justice Sylvander Boutwell,.
Timothy Howard of this town will APP
pear for Bemis, and Jere r. Kane of
Spencer for Deland.
The main elevator of the big shop
