A HEALTH QUESTION.

The MEDICAL OFFICE OF HEALTH said bo had visited the promises and failed to see any necessity for an additional kitaken on the reef- There was a kitchen on each floor and a separate kitchen oven for the eneklost, and he could not recommend the modification applied for.

The REGISTRAR-GENERAL-I presume the owner got very good compensation for the back portion of his premises.

The VICE-PRESIDENT-The back portin of these promises was demolished by Government in carrying out the Mee Lan Lane improvement echome. I think the owner has a fair claim to build to the former height.

The application was rofused.
