During the rear one thousand and thirty-nine examinations were made which eonst tinted 1m in- crease of eighty-eight per cent over the figure for the preceding vear. This number includes 262 First Your Prince of Wales College students who were examined for tuberculosis o1' other communicable ciisenc-cs on entering college. The vent" under review has been most favourable from an epidemio- logical point of view. No epidemtc visited the City and only small number of sporadic cases o com- with a correspondingly low mortal- ity rate. Ottr City and Province Jortunately escaped the Dominion jwlde epidemic of Infantile Par- laiysis during the late summer and autumn. Not one authentic cast’ was reported in the whole pro- vince though cases were prevalent 1in both Nova Scotia and New l Brunswick. The work done tn ottr Provincial Laboratory for the City in disease ' prevention and for diagnostic pur- lposes is steadily increasing. Dally [except Sunday the City water is examined bncterlologically and re- ports rendered to the City Water Commissioners. Not, at all times during the summer months does the water conform to recognized standards of purity and until this situation is corrected a health haz- ard will continue to exist at cer- tain times each year.

During the summer vacation ex- tensive repairs and alterations were. unfortunately. necessaly t0 the Annex of Prince Street School. These repairs have been complet- ed. we lfeve in a. very satisfac- tory manner.

Manual Training was carried on as usual ln the Agricultural l-lall under the supervision of Mr. Le- ‘Baron E. Taft. We believe. how- ever. that if this advisable instruc- WB-lifl‘ ' _. _... H: tlon is to be continued efficiently for a very large percentage or the boys. it; will be necessary for the Board to provide facilities under their own control.

Shaw, B.Sc., has given his usual efficient services as S1111- ervisor in the four schools 1111f. owing to his other duties as Sup- erintendent. of Education, it Ls fell that. he has not been able to 1111's sufficient time to the lmporlntu matter of supervision. Therefore for a trial period of six months contrnenchtg January 1st. 1038. 11r- rnngctnents ltuve been made lot the supervision to be done by thu Principal of each school. I11 0r- der to allow this to be done an additional teacher has been 1111- pointed to the staff of each school.
