BUTCHER SCHOOL
ATTENDANCE DROPS
Infant Plague Scare Not
Felt in Other Parts of
the City.

Ninety.seyen pupils failed to report
at roll call at the Butcher school this
morning, this number representing 80
per cent. of the average enrolment.
The enrolment at this school is nor
mally 275.
The decrease in attendance at this
school is attributed TO the consterna-
lion caused throughout the city yes.
terday when city health authorities re-
ported the existence of case OF infan-
tile paralysis, the victim dying later
in the day.
City school Officials anticipated a
decrease in attendance at all the ward
schools, and especial. at the Butcher
school which is loctaed nearer to the
White school which was ordered
closed for period of two weeks, and
were gratified that the percentage OF
decrease was not larger.
Other schools in the city were cut
Gown some IN attendance though the
percentage in each OF the other schools
was very small.
The kindergarten at tho Butche:
school was suspended by the teacher,
Miss Edna Rinehart, until further no.
ticc.
School officials believe that today
wi.I snow the lowest attendance at
the schools and tnat after the sears
dies down to some extent. and If no
further cases develop. that the vari.
Gus schools will resume normal con
ditions.
The w school where the inlan
tile paralysis victim was pupil will
remain closed for periU, OF two
weeks aud if no new cases develop will
AT the end OF the two weeks resume
work The other schools will not be
closed unless cases OF the disease
should develop In these schools.
According to grades The attendance /.
was cut down today us tolV~s at the
Butcher school:

There Is as yet no sign of an improvement in the export inquiry which e minutes staenant at the leading sea board markets, although q fair demand Is claimed at interior points.
