Report of the Medical Officer of Health.
Staff.
After 4½ years' military service, during part of which I was
able to supervise to a certain extent the work of the Public Health
Department, I returned to duty at the end of January, 1919.
Dr. Caley returned to his duty at the Tuberculosis Dispensaries
on 27th December, 1918, after four years and five months' military
service.
Mr. T. Newell, who had been employed by the Food Control
Committee from the 17th September, 1917, returned to duty on the
2nd June.
Mr. S. Crane retired on the 22nd July, on reaching the age limit,
after 29 years' of faithful service.
Mr. E. J. Jenkins was appointed sanitary inspector and commenced
duty on the 19th May.
Mr. D. Grant was appointed sanitary inspector and commenced
duty on the 14th July.
These latter two appointments were made to fill vacancies
caused by the death of Mr. G. Russell and the retirement of Mr. S.
Crane.
On account of the large increase of work, and especially of the
necessity for increased housing inspections, Mr. A. E. Vickers and
Mr. H. T. Lambert were appointed sanitary inspectors, and commenced
duty on the 15th December.
Three new health visitors were appointed, Miss I. E. Mulkern,
Miss M. E. Maple and Miss B. Henderson, the latter in place of Miss
B. Wearing, who resigned.
