Health Board Fails to Meet for Second Month
The board of health again failed to achieve a quorum on Tuesday evening, a repeat of July’s setback. Mayor Herbert Thompson presides as no full attendance occurs. Sam Brenner Frank McKibben and Dr. R. M. Arey attend, but quorum remains elusive as bills and reports are held over. Dr. W. A. Houk filed August’s report noting 132 tons garbage removed, four milk licenses issued, and 27 milk tests with butterfat results across numerous producers and dairies.
