Extreme activity of motion, good

throughout the day until reserve forces

Grip and pneumonia are prevalent
throughout the city, physicians being
rushed to their capacity for attention.
In some instances where physicians
substitute physicians were employed.
Most Of the-b big factories were short
handed today. At the Remington and
u. M. C. plants no attempt was made
by the officials to estimate the per-
centages absent. The Harvey Hubbel
works reported about 10 per cent. sick.
Similar illness was reported generally
throughout Bridgeport factories. the
percentage being larger among the
women than men.
: Bridgeport hospital recorded 15 cases
of pneumonia. st. Vincent's had Is
cases of pneumonia and seven of grip

1t is believed that the epidemic has
reached its apex and that the number
of cases reported to physicians are
diminishing.
