city are requelted to attend 'and all
who can -will volunteer for assistanit

teachers will be asked to volunteer.
Automobiles have been loaned to the
Board of Health, and It is planned, to
use them to take the nurses Swiftly
from case to case. At each cse -a
teacher will he ieft with thorough instructions on what to do by the nuror.
Thus the whole city will' be completely
covered tf the scheme works satisfactorily. and fro-n the results toslay. it
has been an unqualified success.
The schools of Carnbtidge will remain
closed another week at least. " cost of
the Protestant churches are elosed.-The
movies have tlso temporarily suspended.
Throughout the city all orgaisations
