QUARANTINE LAWS
MUST Be OBEYED
Health Commissioner Says Better
Compliance Will Be Required
Hereafter.
SCHOOL WILL NOT BE CLOSED

A more strict quarantine will be
required for those living in the
homes of the sick in the Central
Park district. This was the assur-
ance given by DR.. Connell, health
commissioner, at a meeting held at
the home of w c. Hughes. 4O16
Grand avenue, when large number
OF the residents of that section OF the
city were present. The meeting was
also attended by Superintendent
Graft Of the school board. Miss Eliza
beth Rooney, principal Of the Central
Park school and A. c. Wakeley, mem
Der OF the Board OF Education.
The meeting was called to consider the
necessity Of closing the school because
OF the prevalence OF so much sickness.
II was decided, however, that It would
be better to keep the school open and TO
enforce more strict quarantine rules.
One OF the complaints was that In case
OF sickness It was generally three days
before the case was reported and that
gives the disease too much of a start. An
attempt will also be made to remedy
this.
Complaint was also made that there
were too many cats and dogs in the
neighborhood and also that there was
too little ventilation in the street cars.
