    i3° 1Tewkesbury Rural District (Worcestershire Division). Note by County Medical Officer. Dr. Turner states that “ not a single case of Zymotic Disease “ has been reported.’’ It should, however, not be forgotten that the Notification Act is not in force, in spite of the Authority having been repeatedly urged by the Medical Officer of Health and you to adopt it. Again I call your attention to the fact that the Tewkesbury Rural District Council is the only Board in Worcestershire who have failed in this respect. Dr. Turner recommends his Authority not to shelve the Isolation Hospital question. The Drainage and Water-supply of Bredon are reported to be unsatis¬ factory, and receiving attention.
