influenza
| SITUATION
Many III But So Far Only Few Serious
Cases Have Developed.

The U. S. Public Health Service re
ports the influenza situation in Pasca
goula still serious. However the
measure adopted, such as forbddino
public meetings, closing theatres
churches, pool rooms, soda fountains
etc, and dscouraging visiting among
neighbors, is having the effect o.
checking the spread to new localities
Most of the cases reported in the past
three days have been in homes al
ready infected. Few cases of pneu-
monia have developed and to noon
Friday there had not been a single
death reported from the disease,
though two or three patients who have
pneumonia are in a critical condition
No definite statement has been
made of the number of cases in town
and estimates range from four to
eight hundred.

| stands greatly in need of trained
nurses to aid in the present influenza
| epidemic. Three of the six physi
| clans in town are down with the di-
sease and the three remaining are
experiencing great difficulty in re-
spending to the calls. Trained nurses
are wanted to send out on calls in
lieu Of physicians to report on the
urgency of the cases and conserve the
physicians time for those most in
need. Three nurses have so far re-
spOnded to the call. They also desire
the help of those who have had some
experience in the care of the sick,
whether trained or unframed, to help
nurse those cases where whole families
are down with the disease.
On instructions from Washington
all local chapters at points where in
fluenza is prevalent have formed com
mittees to handle this situation. The

LETTER FROM "OUR BOYS"

Mrs. Eugene Gautier received "a letter

news of their safe arrival overseas.
Lieut.. Gautier says all the Jackson

French people is very touching, even

kind of disease there were found
pneumococci, the germs of lobar
pneumonia. Still others have been
caused by streptococci and by other
germs with long names.
No matter what particular kind of
germ causes the epidemic, it is now
believed that influenza is always
spread from person to person, the
germs being carried with the air along
with the small droplets of mucus, en-
PEELED by coughing or sneezing, force
full talking and the like by one who
already has the germs of the disease.
They may also be carried about in the
air in the form of dust coming from
dried mucus, from coughing and sneez-
ing, or from careless people who spit
on the floor and on the sidewalk. AS
in most other catching diseases. a per-
son who has only a mild attack of the
disease himself may give very severe
attack to others.
What should be done by those who
catch the disease?
II is very important that every per-
son who becomes sick with influenza
should 20 home at once and go to bed.
This will help keep away dangerous
complications and will, at the same
time. keep the patient from scatter
ing the disease far and wide. 1t is
highly desirable that no one be allow
ed to sleep in the same room with
the patient In fact. no one but the
nurse should be allowed in the room.
II there is cough and sputum or run
ming of the eyes and nose. care should
be taken that all such discharges are
collected on bits OF gauze or rag or
paper napkins and burned. If the
patient complains Of fever and head

you to make the following communi-
cation to the imperial German chan
Cellor:
Before making reply to the re-
quest of the imperial German govern
ment, and that in order that reply shall
be as candid and straightforward as
the momentous interests involved re-
quire, the President of the United
States deems it necessary to assure
himself of the exact meaning of the
note of the imperial chancellor. Does
the imperial chancellor mean that the
imperial German government accepts
the terms laid down by the President
in his address to the Congress of the
United States on the Sth of January
last, and in subsequent address. and
that its object in entering into dis
cussion would be only to agree upon
the practical detail of their applica-
ton?

druggist to prescribe and may be dang
erous to take the so-called "safe, sure
and harmless" remedies advertised b,

If the patient is so situated that he
can be attended only by some one who
must also look after others in the
family 1t is advisable that such at

win a person who has influenza
before catch the disease again?
1t is well known that an attack of
measles or scarlet fever or smallpox
usually protects person against an
ether attack Of the same disease This
appears not to be true of Spanish in
fuenza." According TO newspaper re-
ports the king of Spain suffered an
attacl; Of influenza during the cpl
demic thirty years ago, and again was
stricken during te recent outbreak in
Spain.
How can one guard against in
fuenza?
In guarding against disease of all
kinds, it is important that the body
be kept strong and able to fight off
disease germs. This can be done by
having a proper proportion of work,
Play, and rest, by keeping the body
well clothed, and by eating sufficient, |
wholesome and properly selected food. |
In connection with diet, It is well to !
that milk is one of the best
