Inquire of ticket agent. For farther information, address Dr. John AVhitehead, Salisbury, or RIGHT) H. LEWIS, :\I. D., Secretary, Raleigh, X. C. The Board, in order to make the meeting as po})ular in character as possible, desired to have some prominent citizen preside, but we could not induce one to assume the responsibility. So the tirst or morning session was called to order by Dr. H. T. Bahnson, President of the Board of Health. The meznbers of the Board and visiting citizens were cordially welcomed in appropriate words by the Rev. Dr. Murdoch, who, we think, if such an expression can with propriety be applied to one of his cloth, deserves the title '' the near wheel-horse of the town of Salisbury," so active and successful has he been in advancing the interests of that goodly burg materially as well as spiritually.

The questions elicited by Dr. Thomas's paper having been answei'ed, the meeting, after a three hours' session, adjourned for dinner. At the afternoon session a paper by the Secretary on " Drinking Water in Relation to ^lalarial Diseases," and one very instructive one on ''Household Water Supply," sent by Mr. J. C. Chase, who was unavoidably absent, were read and discussed. At night Dr. Albert R. AVilson, of Greensboro, County Superintendent of Guilford, read a very interesting and instructive communication on the
