closed the Barnwell High School on
Monday until further notice. Several
cases* of this disease have developed
aere in the past week and many chil-
'Iren have been exposed. The order of
the Board also prohibits school chil
dren from attending the theatre,
Jmreh or Sunday school until the
^tajvger is considered past. It is also
in»h*rrttood that stricter quarantine
‘egulations will be put into effect.
It is not known just how long the
ocul school will remain closed. In
•>unharton it was necessary' to keep
'be school closed for three weeks be
fore the epidemic subsided.
Measles has not been confined to
tny one section, but is said to be
srcvalent throughout the county and
State, and of course has -been worse
u some section:* than in others. A
oca! physician stated a few days ago
3 hut he could not understand the at-
,;tude of people towards this disease.
statistics show that more deaths
esult from it than from smallpox.
