The school commit !tee and Dr. George F.

The inoculation law will be enforced here, however, it 1being left to the good judgment of e parents to look after the safety ¢ their children and other This is the best time of the year for vaccination, the state depart- advises. There are few colds nter diseases, which y cause complications, about now, while having the step taken immediately would mean the loss of no time from school.

A Correction | An item in this column of the | Herald Saturday reporting the death of Constable Albert P.

Mr. Stark is in good | health and attending his dutles each day. | Burglars in City Hall? | This morning when the city hall was opened a window in the deor leading to the city clerk’s office was found broken and the question was |raised whether or not the damage could be attributed to burglars er someone who happened to fall against the door. Entry to the of- fice was not made, a fact which could be ascribed to the fact that the door is not equipped with a |catcnl ock, necessitating the use of a key. The city clerk’s office is located on the gecond floor, over headquar- ters, but the noise of falling xlass |was not heard downstairs.
