This influenza epidemic has put a
stop to all social activities and as a
consequence people are not only not
doing things in a social way but they
are remaining at home as much as
possible. This creates dearth OF To-

that good war news that we are giving
you every day. That alone is worth
the price of the paper and you get
the rest thrown in. By-the-way we
took in six new daily subscribers
Thursday, which shows that the old
