LA Grippe" and bad colds still hold
this city in their sneezing, smiling

abatement.
The rainy, damp, cloudy and humid
air of this weather is that In which the
grippe microbe, IL there is one, thrives
and multiplies. cold snap would be a
blessing to suffering humanity, for clear,
bright air and low freezing temperature
would make every one feel better and
check the march OF LA Grippe and the
narrowing colds and coughs.
Nearly every Office and store has its
victims, and many are short handed by
reason of the enforced absence Of clerks
or salesmsn Many members Of the
police force and several letter carriers

mild attacks while still sticking to duty.
The physicians are all extremely busy
and some have been attacked by the in
fuenza themselves.
