This epidemtc ‘was confined wholly to the west part the town, and so far as I know ore were no fatalities, Scarlatina: Three cases only. One in Taftville and two at Trading Cove. Scariatina: Three cases of diph- theria wero reported, which is one more than last year an€® nine more than there ought to be, for this is one preventable disease, a filthy disease. If the entire community kept their premises clean, with sanitary drains and all decaying vegetable matter dis- posed of properly, there would be none of these cases. It is a disgrace for one to have this disease, but often the dis- 8race does not belong to the victim or family, but to some neigh ance. 'The mortality in diphtheria has ropped_wonderfully since the intro- uction of antitoxin, from 25 per cent. to about 6 per cent, and possibly low- er still, for these are not very. recent figures. Very few cases of diphtheria would be lost if seen early by the physician. for the profession is thor- oughly alive to the bemefits of anti- toxin treatment. Tuberculosis: Five cases reported. Two of them only when death was very jmminent. There ought not to be such delay-and it {s unnecessary if the doctor called would take a littie pains to find out if the previous attendant had sent in a notice to the Health Of- ficer. The attending physician should not take it for granted that some of the previous attendants have reported ‘the case. % Nuisances: Six nuisances were re- ported and investigated. All of them were promptly abated upon receipt of notice and demand for abatement. ion of schoolhouses and pub- lc buildings: This duty was attend- ed to and the conditions found were generally very satisfactory.

The Forelgn Missionary Ansiversary service at the McKinley Avenue A. M. E. Zion church o Sunday afternoon and evening were well attended. The organist, Miss Marjorie Flelds was at her post during both services. The evening programme was arranged by Mrs. Lydia King, and proved an en- tire success. The attendance at the morning and afternoon services was fair, but at the evening service, the church was full. _The Rev. Mr. Bar- rows said in closing that he was very much pleased with the hearty response of the church and friends, and that he was confldent gf the existence of much good in Norwich, and hoped to encourage his people to manifest the £00d in them. The missionary offer- ing was $12.63. The Rev. E. F. Barrow selected two tents Sunday morning. “Go ve there- fore, ana_teach ail nations, baptizing them in the name of Fatber, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. St. Mat. 28:15. “But ye shall receive power after that the Holy Spirit is come upon you, and ye shall be wit- nesses for me, both in Jerusalem, and in Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.” Acts 1:8, Mr. Barrow said in part, the out- standing subject found in thess verses is the great commission of ths Christ to_the apostle band. Jesus Christ in His resurrection glory, majesty, and ministry, commissions the twelve, tellx ing them ta go and teach and baptize all tha nations._ We can quickly un- derstand why Philip, the evangelist, was driven by the Bpirit to meet that great Negro, treasurer of Queen Can- dace, returning from Jewish worship, and preach to him the gospel of the living God. This Ethioplan official was included in the “all nations” of the Christ. It seems to me that now, as at the beginning those who would carry out the commission of the Chriat, must possess a dynamic, a power; they must be Spirit-filled men, emptied of every vestige of self. They must clearly understand what a mission is from a practical viewpoint. It is sim- piy the church getting out of itself and flinging jtseif into the service of some one else. With this understand- ing there can be no repulsion to the foreign base of missions, but it will be readily admitted that the foreizn I base of missions is the home base in expansion. The church goes in the person of the missionary with the bread of life and glad tidings of great joy to the benighted in distant lands. Every true church possesses the Spirit of missions, and forelgn mission ‘is the ' church marching forth at, and fulfilling the command of her Captain. A disloyal or selfcentered church knows. nothing about missions. To speak plainly, my beloved, such a so- oiety could not be_called a_church, but a social club. The church of the living God is the bedy of Christ, and as such, its life must flow out to others, and thereby make them mem- bers of the great Body of our Lord and Saviours We cannot exonerate ourselves from tRe responsibility of missions. The logic of the case presses the fact upon us with great force. Modern mission is not bus: only in the salvation of the soul, but it is very much concerned about the whole man. It is trying to save body, mind and soul. This accounts for hos. pitals, doctors, nurses, colleges an teachers and preachers.’ It is this pro- gressive idea that makes the financ. ing of missions a Christian duty, a necessity. and a great opportunity to enlist with the greatest captain the world has ever had, the Lord of life months at’ the aken there by A man who was charged with drunkenness was discharged by the court.
