While there was something of a storm in a few sections of the county when tho vaccination law was put into effect, most people h.tve uow accepted it, even when they did not approve of the meth od the lawmakers took to accom plish the result, rather than al low their children to grow up without tho advantages of the puhl!c fchool. In cise a child is vaccinated, and it don't take, then what? The following letter from the State Commissioner of Health to the County Medical Inspector, makes that pl.in. The letter says "In boroughs I have suggested that the third attempt to vaccin ate bo made in the presence of the physician of the Board of Health. If this third attempt fails the Board of Health physi cian, acting as a representative of tho health authorities, permits the child to attend school. "In tho rural districts, I have asked that such cases be referred to this Department that we may have our County Medical Inspec tor or someone deputized by him investigate them, and if they are honest ones, to authorize the ad mission of the children to school."
