NEW ROOM SIGNS IN ORDER

Board of Health's Sanitary List

SEWER CONNECTION

Necessary to Get on List of Rooming or Boarding House Sanctioned

The old, familiar room sign must go by the board. And the person who wishes to make a hit this year must placard his windows with the word sanitary. "Sanitary Rooms for Rent," "Sanitary Boarding House," will be the taking cards for the coming student. For the board of health is about to publish a list of sanitary houses in the city and this list will be posted for the perusal of the public.

The health officer will have a list, the city engineer will have one, and one will be put in Secretary Wade's office. Possibly, a few other people will be supplied. Houses where the conditions areunsanitary will fail in recommendation as these are considered unfit for occupancy.

By sanitary, is meant those houses that have sewer connections. So people renting houses without, should insist upon their landlords at once making the proper connections.

The board of health report a diminution of scarlet fever from one hundred cases, all told, to three cases at the present time. There is but one case of diphtheria and one of typhoid in the city at present.
