The scarlet fever scare has ev­
idently affected quite a few
people here judging by the num­
ber who have taken the test to
find out their immunity . . .
The increase in the number of
cases the past week will' probably
further increase the speed with
which new cases develop if strict
quarantine is not observed by
those who have the disease. Cas­
es are said to be mild but failure
to stay in quarantine the re­
quired length of time can give
the disease to someone else.
Material shortages caused the
closing of the Pal Shop an extra
day last week but with the com­
ing of a new month, new supplies
were again available . . . Doug

day passing almost without no­
tice, probably due to the rush
of events which keep everyone
busy, with little time to think
about the more common things
. . . The day passed with fa­
vorable results anyway . . .
