Ion Worthy Poor Cami for Than Ever Before,
and a load boiler and Close Crusher lust
be Purchased-Estimates to to Cut-
nllltsd at its Annual lasting.
Selectman Isaac Selleck was question-
ed, yesterday, regarding the estimates
for the coming year to be submitted at
the annual town meeting, which will be
held on or about January 25th.
Mr. Selleck said he could not at this
time state just what amount, it would
be necessary to appropriate. although
there would he need of quite a large
sum to toe defray expenses of the town,
brought about by numerous causes.
There has been, he said, more worthy
poor cared for by the tOWn during the
past year than ever before.
Besides, which in itself is quite an
item, the town is to purchase a steam
road roller and stone crusher. Should
the Telford road law be repealed, no So.
lectmun Selleck and other town officials
in and out of Norwalk believe, the town
would find it necessary to expend about
$10,000 during the coming year for the
improvement of its highways.
Last year a five-mill tax was laid.
This year, Mr. Selleck feels certain, 11
seven-mill tax will be necessary.
Selectmen Merrill and Themes returned
from a trip to Syracuse and Marathon,
N. Y., Tuesday night, after an inspec-
tion of road rollers and stone crushers,
but the board has not yet determined
upon a purchase.

REGARDING CURTARIIIIIS DISEASES
Health Committee Kendall Quotes the Law B'esr-
In. lines the Sublecl and Says it will be
Enforced-4hr Decision in the Hogan
Bsmonslnnoe Case Endorsed.
Mr. Editor: There is anxiety on the
part of some parents regarding sending
their children to public schools from
fear of contracting contagious diseases
by coming in contact with some child
who may have such disease or who may
come from homes where there is a. case
of infectious disease. With the idea of
alloying such fear it is desirable to in~
form the public what the law is and
what is being done to prevent any out-
break of an epidemic in our city. The
law provides that every morning, at the
opening of school, the teacher shall in-
quire as to symptoms of disease among
the children present, and shall inquire,
further, iftliey come from homes in
which there are contagious diseases;if so,
they art1 sent home, and no child is al-
lowed to return to school without a cor-
tillcate from the health officer to, the
efl‘oct that there is no further danger
from contagion.
All house-holders as wall as boarding-
liouso or hotel-keepers must report any
case which comes to their knowledge to
the health officer. The physician in at-
tendance shall report m it only the case,
but any maroon who may be liable to be
infected in the house. If children, no-
tice will be sent to school;if persons
employed in any of our large factories
notice will be sent- there also, that in-
fection may be confined as much as pos-
sible.
The time to stop afiro is when it is
small, anilitis proposed to give the
alarm at 0111111011 the outbreak of any
serious disease that it may be confined
and put out. As 11 prevention of any
epidemic, lot 1111- say where there is
fresh air, dryness and cleanliness there
is no epidemic. Open and let in tln1
light and air, clean and whitewash
every cellar. Make complaints to
the Board of Health if thoplumliiug
is wr1 mg, or garbage heaps are
noxious, or any other nuisance exists.
Let us all work for health and the best
interest of our city.
What is of more importance, the or-
dinance relative to reporting diseases
will be enforced in the future. The. 1l1s~
eases to be reported include measles,
whooping-cough, cholera infantum,
typhoid, typhus,y
scarlet and yellow fever. smallpox,f
cholera, pulmonary tuln-rculosis, or any
other malignant, contagious or infec-
tions disease.

The Decision Is (iralllylng.
Editor of the Sentinel: It was guilty-
ing to learn in yesterday's issue of The
Sentinel of the decision rendered by the
County Commissioners, rejecting the
Hogaulicouse application for 11 saloon
at the corner of Iieldcn and Franklin
avenues. Since the closing of saloons
in that vicinity a general Improvement
has been noted, much to the satisfaction
of propertyowucrs and residents who
are opposed tothe rc-csfublishiug of a
saloon there, and the possible remtilion
of former disgraceful occurrences. There
are certainly enough places where that
line of business is conducted in the city
of Norwalk adequate to supply all do—
