Health Officer's Report


A"ter making my annual inspection of School Houses and Public Buildings, I find that nearly all conform to the rules and regulations o the Vermont State Board of Health A little more care should be exercised in the keening o' some of the out-houses in the rural districts in a more cleanty manner. Fire escapes have been provided for all the pul lic buildings in town with the exception of the Bartlett Block on Main Street The owners of this block should be required to place fire escapes on this building at once, so that in case of fire there could not be no danger to the people who live in this block.
