La ter 1t was decided that it would be necessary to quarantine only the Win ithrop House girls, so that the first order passed by the health depart ment was recalled. Although the paths to Winthrop have always been popular ones, the increased amount of traffic to the house during the past week was phenomenal, and the special delivery man. the ice cream man, the candy man and tine fruit man has been kept very busy
