THE AFTERMATH.

The epidemic has passed. 1t has
taken it's toll of lives in North Canaan.
That we regret To lose one life at
home when the war is taking SO many
is deplorable. We all sympathize with
the homes that have been stricken.
The community will long feel itself
the poorer for this loss of life.
Yet our doctors, brave men, worked
tD the limit OF physical endurance.
We honor the men who gave them
selves so freely for our sages. And the
visiting nurse-she has rendered her
0ic service. Her monthly report, print
sxS in this issue, speaks for itself; it
.prpGlaims her industry, her devotion
ITO ner profession. In her the Visiting
Nurse association has justified it's ex-
iSsanre, its foresight and it's recent
appeal for public support.
But deaths Shall we gain from this
aah experience only appreciation of
the individual work of our nurse and
doctors? Yes, there is something more
the sense that as a community we
were not wholly prepared for the
emergency and that somehow we did
not do our best and utmost to save
Hives. That is a most hopeful sign
Aid Miss Price has pointed out Or
way toward improvement. Education
Cur women should learn by going out
with Miss Price in the simpler phases

and beneficial will be the education in
Kngfish of the employees in our in
dustrial plants. Many of the people
want night school. The town could
well afford to provide one. This
would be gain that will have lasting
effect. We commend the idea to the
Board of Education.
