Notification of Tuberculosis.
Dr. Hodgetts, Secretary of the Pro-
vincial Board of Health, said that he
certainly did not intend to drop the
question of systematic notification of all
cases of tuberculosis. In adopting his
report, in which he recommended that
some such system be put into force,
the board had, Dr. Hoclgetts said, defin-
itely approved of the principle. He
proposed now to take the matter up with
the Provincial Secretary and see how far
they could go in iostitutiug regulations.
In the Province of Quebec a statute was
passed providing for the notification of
municipalities of all cases that have
reached the suppuration or expectoration
stages. It was a question whether legis-
lation was necessary in Ontario or
whether aa order in Gouncil would be
sufficient. That something should be
done, however, he was most firmly con-
vinced.
As the result of Stratford's first year's
experiment with municipal ownership,
the water commissioners have handed
over a surplus of $15,500 to the city.
