The subject uppermost in every colonist's mind is our health. With so many people living in such close proximity to one another and with a common sanitary facility, it is the responsibility of each and every one of us to cooperate in trying to prevent disease rather than to cure after the disease has spread. So lot us give our Public Health authorities our fullest cooperation by attending the health lectures and heeding all the sanitary rules.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
