Vac- cinations in the schools had been so neglected that when a general vac- cination was ordered by request of the school board, out of more than 400 children inspected, less than 10 per cent. had been vaccinated. “During the year a number of nui- sances have been investigated, and remedied, which have been charged for at ordinary fee rates, many more have been investigated and remedies suggested or pit in force for which no charge was made, except where a formal complaint was made. “Very few people are willing to make a formal complaint, and sign their name thereto, the full responsibility for the forcement of all sanitary rules and regulations rests with the health offi- | cer alone. During the late epldemic of smallpox such complaints, mostly unwarranted, were so numerous, that I was obliged to refuse to investigate them unless the party making the complaint was willing to do so for- mally in writing. Only one such party was willing to sign a complaint. “During the year I have investigat- ed and recommended changes in thir- ty tenement and private houses, most of which have been cheerfully com- plied with. HExcept in one or two in- stances this has been entirely without remuneration. I have also made six- teen water analysis and in several in- stances recommended changes, and this has been done without charge. “The system, or entire lack of sys- tem, in all lines of sanitary work in the town of Berlin ,is so unsatisfac- tory, and the provisions made for the payment of such work is so entirely inadequate, that I am tendering my resignation to the Country Health of- ficer. “No honest and self-respecting phy- sician can afford to give his time and strength to such work, under condi- tlons as they now exist.” “R. M. GRISWOLD, “Health Officer.” Excitement in East Berlin. E. H. Galnes, Lewis A. Westcott, Fred Hubbard and Rev. Mr. Dodge of East Berlin left yesterday on a fish- ing trip to Basham lake, Moodus. And hercin lies a tale. It was reported that the entire town turned out last night to greet the followers of Isaac Walton on their return. Up to a late hour, however, the fishermen had not put in an appearance. Many stories were in circulation, how their ma- chine was so loaded down with the young whales and such that they had to make slow progress. During the past week ‘the fishing | expedition was the talk of the town. It is said that mammoth preparations were made. Numerous residents, it is reported, were awakened from their peaceful slumbers to see some one prowling around their lawns in the wee hours of the morning. Further investigation disclosed that it was the self-proclaimed fishermen hunting for worms. It is said that a certain lawn in East Berlin resembles a line of trenches in the war-ridden France where the enthusiastic fishermen dug for bait. Many residents today are lamenting the fact that the sweet chirp of the cricket will not be heard in East Berlin again. The fishermen have rounded up all the crickets, grass- hoppers, angleworms and minnows for miles around, it is said. It is further reported from reliable sources that artiticial bait and even some heli- conilnae were secured. A prominent Iast Berlin businessman in speaking of the expedition this morning said: is no doubt thac' but assume that en- | ’ NEW BRICAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1917. \ | ) FallStyles of the Hour NEVERdidafall season open with such a superb display of Fash- ions in Shees for Men at $3.50 as that which will greet you here. can boast of no richnessof style which these beautiful New Standard Value NEWARK Shoes do not possess. 324 Main Street “Sevenand Ten dollar shoes If ever NEWARK Shoes offered a lot for the money they do so this season. was value in Shoes for Men given with such heaping measure as we give you this Fall. .
