Dr. R. M. Griswold, health officer for Perlin has sent a letter to the chairman of the school committee in which he states that the smallpox epi- demic at Bridgeport should be taken seriously in this town and the local | children should be vaccinated to guard against it. The letter reads as follows: “Chairman Board of Education. “Rerlin, Conn, “Dear Sir:— “In view of the fact that an exten- sive epldemic of smallpox exists in the City of Bridegport, and that we are in direct line of communication with that city, and in addition to the fact that a census of the schools two years ago showed that more than sixty per cent! of the children in the schools of Ber- lin were not vaccinated, it is hereby recommended that the Board of Edu- cation exercise the right conferred upon them by the law of the state, and exclude from school all unvaccinated children, fixing such a date limit as will allow the work to be done with the least inconvenience and as little| interruption as possible to the schools. “Under such an order children can be vaccinated by their family physi- clan subject only to the inspection by the health officer as to results at the end of the stipulated period. “Very truly yours, “R. M. Griswold, M. T “Health Officer."” Special Committee Meeting A speclal meeting of the school committee was< held at the office of the town clerk last evening to con- sider the situation created by -the smallpox epidemic in Bridgeport.

In event the situation gets worse and the epidemic should spread another special meeting of the board will be called to take action. Some members of the committee feel, however, that if the parents of the children wish to have the pupils vaccinated they may do so, although at the present time it is not compul- sory.
