It appeared somewhere in print a day or two ago that people who failed to get vaccinated would be taken before Judge Naughten and properly fined. The judge was not a little surprised when a woman, with a string of children following her, said she wanted herself and the young ones vaccinated. The judge told her she had evidently gotten into the wrong pew, but the lady assured him the paper said he would vaccinate all who called at his office. The judge referred her to the city clerk, who sent her to the mayor, who sent her to the health officer.-Miner.
