General Quarantine on Public Gathering:
Has Been Imposed.

Al n meeting of the health officer
DR.. Bailey, the trustees of the villag,
the selectmen and PRINCIPAL y. G. Ham
held at the Office of DR.. Bailey ON Mon
day night, II was decided to place quar-
antlne over the town as precautiol
against further trouble from infahtil
paralysis. The schools have been CLOSED
for two weeks, also the churches, NOV
ing picture show and all public gather
ings as means of safety and proven
ton. There are at present but tw,
cases OF the disease, and the children moi
being old enough TO be in school IL Ii
hoped that there may be no further
trouble. The children had not been uI
town for two weeks, but they live in d
neighborhood where there are many
children, and il is feared they may have
been with them In their play, and those
who have come in contact with the i'll
ones are in school. For this reason il
was thought best to close the same for
a time, till it was found what might
develop. All parents are requested TO
keep their children on their own prem
ises and not let them mingle with 9th.
ers in their play.
