THE rules
KALIHI RECEIVING STATION AND
OTHER MATTERS ACTED ON BY
BOARD OF HEALTH.

Much routine business was des-
patched at the meeting of the Board
of Health yesterday, together with
some matters of considerable import !
ance.
1t was ordered, on the advice of Pre-
sident Mott-Smith, that one girl and
two boys at Kalihi receiving station
be sent to Moiokai Oh account of in
subordination The Board decided
that inmates of the station, either
original patients there or brought
from the Settlement for treatment,
must obey the rules and regulations or
forfeit the privilege of remaining at
the institution
In the cases acted on, the boys
would climb over the fence and 20
into town. The presidents sugges-
ton was approved, that it would be
better to take down the fence and pre-
serve discipline by penalty of removal
of offenders.
kai to Kalihi were denied, as owing to
enforcement of the amended segrega-
ton law the station is becoming
crowded. President Mott-Smith
deemed it would be cheaper to send
the examining physicians to Molokai
than to move patients to town.
The president was authorized to exc
cute the lease OF land with increased
area forming the site of the receiving
station from S. M. Damon.
| New forms under the amended Sc
| gregation law were submitted by the
president. Reports of staff officers
were filed without reading

officer, was raised from $3.50 to $175

ographer, from $50 to 800.
President Mott-Smith reported on a
visit he made to Waipahu, finding the
