UP 70 The RoAap OF HEALTH.

Without much stir hospital fer the
treatment Of consumptives has been
opened in Morristown.N and the citizens
generally are not pleased with the ad-
vent of the institution. Evidence is also
!. furnished that the mountain region OF
!. New York has also grown weary Of
being advertised as the home of the con-
sumptive and in Sullivan county a Wig
orous crusade has been instituted
against the admission Of tuberculosis
patients. The Liberty Board of Health
has passed an ordinance imposing fine
of $50 for maintaining hospital or
sanitarium for consumptives within the
village limits. The Board of Health of
the town of Rockland has just adopted
an ordinance imposing fine of $50 on
anyeresident of the town for keeping or
.harboring eonsumptive who is not a
member of the family of the resident or
dependent on them for support. The
Board of Health of Monticello has in
lstructed real estate agents to discriminate
against consumptives in renting property.
Register, Newton, N. j.
J This is serious matter for Norris
town and one which will doubtless re-
ceiye early attention at the hands of the
local Board of Health.
