pr Roy *. Flanagan, chief Health
officer OF the city, says that the mum
Der of cases OF grippe here is fairly
small compared with the size Of Rich
mond.
DR., Flannag gan stated Yesterday af-
the public the fact thar Spanish infu-
cnza is not \ fatal disease in itself.
II is not more 50 than measles. and.
indeed. does not have the bad effect on
the Kidneys ana eyes THAI measles does.
The great danger IS that If propr pre-
cautions are not taken there is a
chance OF tho malady turning into
pneumonia.
In response to a query concerning
the proper method OF treatment for
the disease I1r. Flanagan said the fol-
lowing was safe plan:
When the symptoms begin 10 appear

tive. Then indulge in 4 good hot bath
