From the early stages Of the inffu-
enza epidemic until the 2Srd OF Oc-
tober. the Child Welfare Department
OF the Defense Council had many
cases 10 look after insofar as chill
dren were concerned. and on an av-
eragc admitted 70 the Peoples set
tlen.ent Emergency Hospital from
one 70 seven patients every twenty
four hours. the total for the period
Of % days was 81 patients averaE-
ing in age from one week to II years
OF the S4 patients at the Peoples Set
tlement Emergency Hospital. 10 OF
these patients died. nine while in the
hospital and one after leaving. the
balance of 81 children recovered and
were returned to their home and
friends. In addition to the necessary
care for the sick, il was also found
necessary TO care for children whose
parents were i'll in the hospitals: and
through the courtesy of the Ba bieS
Hospital and Day Nursery Commit

children were cared for at this place.
in all 81 children were cared for until

10 their hOm eS. In conjunction with
the foregoing, il is necessary TO state
that the problem of nurses was just

had arisen. Excellent service both
day and night was given by the va

one days time. Many OF the folks
OF this city gave their services gratis,
doing all kinds Of work regardless
whether IL might be mopp.ns OF

names were omitted when donations
We're contributed. In the foregoing
report. mention has been made OF the
rious persons and in the momeft Of
necessity at the Peoples Settlement
Emergency Hospital, such conditions
also prevailed.
On October 9TH, the Homeopathic
Hospital turned over 10 the Health
Committee the new portion OF their
hospital 10 be used as a conValescent
ward, as Or. Robt L Ellegood stated
that patients were being released
prematurely and that it was neces-
