OFFICIAL MINUTES OF THE
CITY BOARD OF HEALTH

The following are the minutes of
the regular meeting of The City Board
of Health for December.
Meeting called to order by DR.. G.
A. Martin, president. Members pre-
sent, Dr. B. J, La Cour, Geo. Barnett
E. E. Kimball. Absent, F. E. Hurlbut
The work of the board was then taken
up.
George w. Barnett was appointed
to fill the place made vacant by j. l..
Barnett moving from the city, he was
also appointed assistant Health officer
as provided for by our minutes Of
April. 5th, 1920.
A committee of three were appoint
ed to make an investigation of the
sewage system that is intended for
the new school building.
The above committee was also ap-
pointed TO inspect the City dumping
grounds, having had several com
plants Of the trash dumped and scat
tered all over the grounds.
This body has been also advised
that there probably will be a general
inspection made of our city, and we
should earnestly appeal to all of our
good people to get those neglected
trash heaps cleared up burn all the
grass and weeds around your places,
clear the gutter if one runs along
your place of any thing that will pre-,
vent good drainage. Its easy, and
by doing so you may be doing away
with thousands of Typhoid or Malaria
germs that may be lurking in some
old tin can, bottle or clinging to some
weed, right at your door. Many times
this is the manner they start, and
from this right into ourshomes. Health
is the one thing that we cannot buy,
so let us take good care of that we
have, and not harbor the things
around us that will take it away.
We believe and we think that you
will agree with us that the good health
that our people have enjoyed so far
this year was due directly to our
cleanup campaign in the early spring
and we are sure that it would be sad
mistake in all of us, to neglect the
little things mentioned above.
There being no further business al
hand, motion to adjourn was carried.
DR.. G.. A. MARTIN,
president
E. E. KIMBALL,
Secretar!

WARNING

Every father and mother in the
Christian world is looking forward
with happy anticipation to the ap-
preaching Christmas holidays; for
weeks they have been making joyous
and secret preparation for "the day
of days, Let this day in every re-
spect be the day you have planned
lis to be; do not let a single moment
be married by an unhappy occurrence
which by foresight and thought could
be prevented. Let no sorrow enter
the home, In connection with this,
I'VE wish to EARNESTLY URGE every
parent to keep out of the hands of
their children death dealing toy pis-
tolls and fireworks. The latter not
only brings intense physical suffering
and possible death, but wreak great
property losses upon communities.
Keep YOUR child in sound and
healthy condition by keeping out Of
his or her hands, one of the fire de-
mons chief instruments Of destruc-
| ton fireworks of all description.
| BEWARE OF THE SPARKLER as
well-IT IS DANGEROUS.
LET US SACRIFICE NO CHILD
LIVES THIS CHRISTMAS.
