As regards the permanent officers, it appears to me invidious
to mention anyone in particular but I can state that I have very
good reasons for feeling extremely grateful personally for the
kindness and ungrudging assistance I have received at all times
from members of my staff, many of whom have volunteered to carry
out work that could not have been accomplished if attempted in
other than a spirit of the greatest devotion to duty whatever the loss
of personal comfort that might be involved.
The members of the Council also have increasingly shown a
desire to put on one side all unnecessary criticism and to assist the
department in every possible way.
The work of the Public Health Department has also been made
much easier by the marvellous courage and endurance shown by the
citizens of the Borough, often under very terrible circumstances.
G. H. DART,
Medical Officer of Health.
