Killed by Falling Tree Maurice Parks, 18, employed on the farm of Albert Karn, Sullivan Township, three miles south of Des- boro, was killed instantly while work­ ing in the bush. The two were en­ gaged in cutting down a tree along a stone fence, and as the tree was about to fall, it was noticed the fall was liable to be in the opposite dir­ ection to that intended, Young Parks was warned to get out of the way, but before he could escape the tree broke off and the butt crushed his head. the public health of the country by his account of the evolution of vac­ cination against smallpox and by re­ cording the earliest vaccinations per­ formed in what is now Canada. Jenner, who discovered vaccination in 1796, gained the idea that cowpox might prevent smallpox, from over­ hearing the chance remark of a dairymaid to the effect that she could not have smallpox because she had had cowpox. There had long been a tradition in parts of England that inoculation with cowpox was a pre­ ventive of the, at the time, common and fatal disease smallpox. As early as 1774, according to the inscription on the headstone of Benjamin Jesty in the churchyard at Worth in Dor­ setshire, this man had successfully vaccinated his wife and children with cowpox. Jenner put a vague belief on a scientific basis. He demonstrat­ ed that cowpox, which is smallpox modified by its passage through the cow, is a mild disease with a local eruption, that* it may be transferred readily and safely from man to man and that it prevents smallpox. The smallpox of India, the Far East and North Africa is virulent. It is called variola major, while that us­ ually found in Canada, the United States, England, the West Indies, Brazil and South Africa is called variola minor, also known as alastrim or ammaas. All Canadian smallpox is not mild. In 1927, the city of Windsor, Oni., had an outbreak of malignant small­ pox. Happily through the vigilance of the local Medical Officer of Health it was limited to 67 cases but the character of the disease may be judg­ ed by the fact that, of the 67, 32 died within a few days after the affection appeared. We are too slack in vac­ cination in Canada. One of these days we may have a salutary lesson in the shape of a virulent epidemic. The only way in which this may be avoided is by having our small child­ ren vaccinated early in life. The best lime is at 6 months of age. It should ticle of Dr. Stewart indicates that be done simultaneously with the tox- j our forbearers in this country were' oiding against diphtheria, a measure j alive to the dangers of smallpox and! which has proved so valuable in the ! that they took prompt advantage of prevention of this malady.
