Publisher, The Times, Exeter Ont. Dear Sir: a We have learned that someones. has circulated a story, in your territory, to the effect that the smallpox situa- tion in Detroit, was serious enough to make some' of your people doubt- ful as to`' ° whether or not they wold make the . trip to Detroit on' the Greyhound, June 10th. ' c in. You :!,uee h no; hexa au . d „aye.y publishing a story to the effect that the smallpox situation is absolutely under the control of the Board of Health, of the city of Detroit. • There have been recently only is very few new cases, and they are confined to a certain area. The situation -at no. time has. been considered ' serious enough to put'a quarantine in effect ou the ferry service"between Detroit and Windsor, and: ; approximately 12,000 people are moving both ways across ;'the , river daily, without re strictions. of any kind, which would not be if the authorities ou both sides of the' river were not fully satisfied that there was no: dangerof conta- gion. .As a .matter ,of fact, more than 500,000 people have been vac- cinated in thelast few weeks., : and recently they have beenvaccinating about 50;000people daily, which leaves the Commissioner of Public Health, to 'State that the epidemic, if at any time it could have been called id such, will be absolutely stamped out, or confined to the present cases with- in the next week. Strenuous meas- ures have been taken to accomplish this. and no expense has been spared in establishing vaccination stations in all parts of the city. On Thursday last, the White Star Line had the Public I4ealth Commis- sioner. furnish sufficient doctors and nurses to vaccinate every employee of this company, so that all who ride on our steamers may%feel that there is no possibility of coming in contact with a single person,. who has not been vaccinated. • Never at any time, or in any city, have such -vigorous and energetic measures been taken by the author- ities to eradicate all signs of the danger of the spread of the disease. Will you kindly publish this letter in your paper,. so that those who have heard anything of the 'rumor mentioned, may understand the sit- uation as it exists. Yours very _truly, N. F. MacLean, General Passenger Agent. Every hard-boiled egg is yellow at heart. When a job requires real courage, the braggart and the chance taker can't qualify: ' SCHOOL REPORT OF S. "S.. NO I. 13.
