Schools Remain Closed,
1t was definitely announced this
morning by the school board that the
schools of the town will be closed
during the coming week and that
they will remain closed subject to
orders from the health officer. DR..
Bull, the health officer, feels that the
health of the children would be en-
dangeTed by re-opening the schools
while the epidemic remains unch ecked
in the town. There is no change in
the general condition of the patients
thus far and as stated before the
latest cases seem to develop pneu-
monia more easily than when the cpl
den1ic first started. Thus far five
deaths have been reported in town.
