"In case a 1 school has no nurse or school i physcian," says the bulletin, "a physician's services can be secur ed for the daily examinations while the epidemic lasts and both, parents and the health of -1 ficer or quarantine officer, can ' be notified and the epidemic soon broucht under control." 1 On the other hand, if the ' schools are closed when an out break occurs, the children are turned loose from supervision: ' they mingle freely with one an other in the streets and in each other's homes; they are unwill ing to admit they feel ill for the reason it will be the end of then good time and consequently when one does "come down" ; with the diseases, usually it was | not detected until he had infect ed his brothers and sisters and perhaps his playmates.
