Pneumonia Turks In Close
Places,
Beware Gifts Ravages says Health
Board, aud give Sneezer a Wide
Berth.

Richmond, Va, January ~,
1913. Especially During the pre-
sent uncertain weather, while
the Thermometer is marathonlng
up and down the tube, the care
full citizen is warned by the State
Board of Health to taxa no
chances and in particular TO be-
ware of the sneezer, the splitter
aud the close room,
In fact, the sneezor is put I'M
der a special ban in q bulletin
just issued by the Board aud is
indicted for various offences
against the good health and peace
OF the Comm )nwealth. He is to
be given a wide berth by the cit
izen who desires to avoid colds
and is urged, in particular, to
avoid the Infection Of his fellows.
Says the bulletin of the Board
"This week of changing weather,
with varying temperature, is
most dangerous and will be the
cause of many cases of pneumon
la and influenza unless proper
precautions are taken. AS one
cannot surmise what will be the
noon temperature when he leaves
his home in the morning, he
should be protected against sud-
den changes. He should always
take his overCoat with him and
should always put 1t on when
leaving close rooms and going in
to the open air.
"Of almost equal importance,"
continues the bulletin, is the ne
cessity of proper ventilation.
No greater mistake can be made
than to suppose that in cold
weather the house or Office should
be sealed as tightly as possible.
On the contrary, even the cold
est days, there should lie ample
ventilation. II this be procured
and the windows be so arranged
than there will he no draft whole
those in the room are seated, there
will be loss danger Of colds.
GA fruitful source Of infection
at this time is careless sneezing,
especially in close places, such
as street cars, elevators, churches
and public buildings. Influenza
is readily communicable aud its
germs leave the body with the
fine mist thrown from the mouth
and nose when one sneezes. Any
person suffering from influenza
or cold should be thoughtful
enough to place a handkerchief
or his hand over his mouth and
nose when he sneezes. In this
way, the germs will not readily
be borne in the air. Where a
person fails to keep his sneezing
to himself, those about him
should give him as wide a berth
as possible. In this weather, the
careless sneozer belongs with the
careless splitter.

came up again this week when it was
discovered that the poplar trees along
Shoshone street were being killed I'M
der orders from the city council. In
dignation over the killing of trees
stopped the proceedings for the time
being, but will not for any length Of
time stop the clearing of the trees
along business blocks. The Times re-
grets that such order was issued by
the council and questions both right
and expediency OF such order. 1t is
true that the trees have injured the
sidewalks in many places and that it
will prove more damaging each year
as the roots of the big trees force
their way up toward the surface I'M
der the pavement. Sooner or later
when Shoshone street is built up as a
business street the trees will have to
go, but it seems a pity to sacrifice any
trees where trees are 80 scarce and
hard to protect as in this city. II pos
sible there should be some means TAX

cared for to see that the individual
property owner whose paving is dam

For after all 1t is within the right of
the property owner thus owning trees
to cut the same out at any time and
