THE SCHOOL CHILDREN.

ing to the fact that these letters have

await the report of the Government
physicians at the various school dis
tricts. DR. Wood said that these would
be received shortly, and suggested that
the matter be laid over for the present.

DR.. Wood, Government physician at

several children. He gave the names of
one or two of these, but he did not state

port was ordered returned to him with
directions that he make more careful
statement of the matter, telling why
he had refused the applications.

into the sea. DR.. Garvin was directed

pany for the purpose of ascertaining
the best method of controlling this wa
ter. so that 1t might not be used for |
irrigation or domestic purposes, and !
the site was approved.

port that the canal was in no more in |.
sanitary condition than II had been for

Der. in fact. The report occasioned a II
smile among the members OF the board.
