Some people have been censurng
the board of education for keeping
school in session, but health authorities
are unanimous in their decision that
the way the school children are being
watched by the teachers makes the
spread of the disease through the
school almost impossible
The thorough system of health re
ports has saved for the time al least
the closing of the schools. The plan
meets with great favor and several
physicians expressed the opinion that
"a the schools are run they are means
of combating the epidemic rather than
otherwise. for the reason that the
teachers have tab on every case of
sickness IN the schools and are able to
give information that would not be
afforded If the schools were closed
Everything IS being done by the teach
ers and school authorities to make the
schools the healthiest place in town
Should the schools be closed. there
Is no telling when they could be opened
again Geneva and Monroe have been
closed two weeks and the school author
tiles feel that they ought to open again
because of the valuable time being lost
by the children, but to be frank the
situation now is still almost as danger
Gus az it ever was County Health
Officers DR. Grandstatf says the way
the situation has been handled in
Berne thus far is very commendable.
