It will be noted that Noel Park Ward, which is essentially
an Artizan Ward, has the highest number of Tubercular cases
reported, viz., 56; as against 48 Town Hall Ward, 33 Central Ward,
24 Bowes Park Ward, and 11 Alexandra Park Ward.
The Town Hall and Central Wards, which also contain a large
proportion of Artisans, are the next in point of numbers.

Five cases had received Sanatorium treatment' at some time
previous to notification, but were primary cases so far as notification
was concerned.
In 19 cases there was a history of a near relative having
Pulmonary Tuberculosis.
Thirteen cases have been removed to the Edmonton Infirmary
for treatment.
Thirteen cases have been admitted to Clare Hall Sanatorium,
making a total of 35 cases removed from their homes; or 20.34 per
cent. of cases notified. This, of course, does not represent the total
number receiving Hospital treatment.
Thirty.one cases have been discharged from Sanatorium, Hospital
or Infirmary during the year. Four of these were admitted in
1912.
Ten primary cases were reported direct from Hospitals.
OTHER FORMS OF TUBERCULOSIS.
Forty.five cases of other Tubercular Diseases have been reported,
including ten cases which I found during School Medical Inspection.
