YELLOW BALLOTS WERE USED IN WATERFORD. Not Enough. Official Ones to Go ‘Around, the Reason, In Waterford Tuesday a peculiar condition arose by which there was not enough of official ballots to serve the voters, so sample ballots were used. It seems that enough official ballots were sent to the town, but that in the distribution of them too many were sent to the north district, and not enough left in the south part of the town. In the latter section demand was made for the ballots when it was found that they could not be supplied. A messenger was hustled off to the north district, and while he was absent' seven of the sampie ballots were cast. Whether anyone will question the legality of the ballot is not known, but it is believed that as the vote would not alter the result that it will be al- lowed to stand.

The crowd packed the sidewalk and over- flowed into the middle of the street. Until after midnight it was almost impossible to ‘get through'the mass of men. and women, children, too, who anxiousiy watched the figures as they appeared on the scréen. SANITARY CODE FOR STATE OF CONNECTICUT. State Board of Health to Ask for the Power to Make and Enforce One. Outlining plans of the statc board of heaith for the next year at the inter- churchmen’s luncheon in Hartford on Wednesday, Dr. John T. Black, secre- tary of the board, said Connecticut los: $6,000,000 a year from preventable deaths'caused by tupercalosis alone. “On: the: basis’ of -Prof. Irving Fish- er's estimate,” he.said “the lives of persons ‘who die of this disease have an_economic value of about $4,600 apiece to the state. He estimates that each baby's life is worth $1,000. In this state 5,000 babies die every year. Half of those deaths are preventable— s0 the loss to the state is $2,500,000. The total loss from preventable dis- ease is about $12,000,600 a vear.” Dr. Black said there:was no satis- factory state health system in Con- necticut. The state board of health, he said, had no power to direct the work of local health officers, though the latter yeported contagious Wis- eases every month to the board, The board's. powers ‘were. only advisory. - 4“Whem-an epidénric-is fhreatened, or ‘even'if therais alv unustal“fiamber of cases of an infectious disease, the peo- ple look to the state board for help, but the board is helpless. This sum- mer there could be 1o concerted state action concerning infantlle paralysis. Some health officers thought there should be a two weeks ’quarantine, others three weeks, some none at all. “This year the board is going to ask for powers to establish and enforce a sanitary code. It will attempt to es- tablish a standard for local health of- ficers and to have the towns instead of the county health officers choose them. It will try to_have ‘full time' health officers—that is, men who will devote their entire time to the health of the community.” o = : HUNTERS GAVE COON SUPPER TO FlR?fl Members of Companies at Central Sta- tion Put it Away in Short Order.
