the north side were too low for con-
tractors 10 submit bids at the meet
ing Monday, so the commissioners

SCHOOLS " Ill
NOT BE CLOSED
Would Not Prevent Spread OF
Scarlet Fever, Says City
Health Officer.

With the additional seven cases Of
scarlet fever added TO the list on
Monday, the total number of cases
in the city has reached o. the high
est yet registered this year. Two
cases of diphtheria and two Of small
pox is the sum of the other COM
municable diseases.
For the past month the number Of
cases of scarlet fever has been how
ering in the neighborhOOd Of the
half century mark but lately a sur
prisingly large number Of new cases
have developed. The health depart
ment has been unable to fix def
mite cause for the prevalence of the
disease, which has not been rampant
in South Bend for at least four
years.
The western sections OF the city
and the poorer precincts are the
only ones that have escaped the fever
10 any nOticeabl degree. Through
the whole winter, but more particu-
larly at this time, it is noticeable
that in the 5. Chaplin and w. Di-
vision and W. washington st. dis
tricts have almost entirely escaped
the ravages of scarlet fever. There
are and have been some few cases
there. but as a whole the proportion
TO the density of the population is
much lower than in other parts Of
the city
This week a predominance Of
scarlet fever along Portage av. and
Riverside drive, and in the districts
Immediately surrounding, is TO be
noted. There are also a large num-
Der of cases in the southeast parts Of
the town and across the river in the
fourth ward.
The schools will not be closed "

he went on 10 explain why he would
not take the responsibility for clos

thousand other places. ne declared
are more dangerous breeding places
for diseases than are the schools.
He said that it would be useless for
him TO close one school or all of
them as long as parents permitted
their children to play on the streets
and 10 go to places of amusement
He asked that he should first be
given assurance that the children
would remain indoors and that then
he would close the schools if neces-
sary to check the spread of the
fever.
