CURE FOR GRIP
rs DISCOVERED
And It Works Successfully in
Crowded Sections

Washington, Oct. 2.-How to stop
Spanish influenza in large groups of
men has been solved by the Ship
ping Board. The important an
nouncement was made by Edward N.
Hurley, chairman of the board.
The author of the system, which
is working effectively in checking the
progress of the disease and reducing
mortality among the thousands of
merchant marine apprentices is Hen
ry Howard, director of recruiting SER
vice for the board. DIR. Howard is
graduate of Harvard, formerly
coach of the. university crews, and
has been prominent as surgeon in
Boston. AS surgeon general of the
Massachusetts State Guard, he has
, had wide experience in health meas
ures affecting large bodies of men.
The statement of the chairman of
the Shipping Board followed report
that the disease had been checked
among four thousand apprentices at
the boards Atlantic training base at
Boston. MI. Hurley's explanation of
the method of checking the disease is
as follows:
'sThe Shipping Boards system of
treatment can be readily applied any,
where, as fresh, cool air and sunshine
are the chief elements employed. Its
special effectiveness appears due to
the manner in which the patients are
isolated and treated in cubicles ven
tilated in a particular way.
''The idea was developed at a tent
hospital, established by DR.. William
A. Brooks, Medical Director of the
Shipping Boards Training Service,
on a high hill in Brookline, a Boston
suburb. The tents have been replac-
ed by specially built shacks, in which
ventilation can be controlled and a
maximum of sunshine secured.
'In each shack one-half the roof
can be tilted back, opening the whole
room to the sun and air. One side
of the room is a glass sash that can
be opened out completely. The walls
of the room do not reach to the roof,
leaving about a foot clearance for
air space.
tIn each room there are two beds,
with a sterilized sheet hung between
to prevent the passage of germs. The
cubicle is connected by door in its
back wall, with a heated corridor,
which connects with an administra-
ton building.
ga large hospital can be built on
this system in five or six days. The
site selected should be on a hill, re-
ports Dr.. Brooks, insuring a free
movement of fresh air ana a maxi
mum of sunshine"

New Iberia enterprise and independent observer. (New Iberia, La.) 1902-1944, 1918-10-19

Capt. Nelson Hlmel Is very
indignant about the criticism
which appeared in the New Ibe-
ria Enterprise Of last week Of that
stretch of the model road along
the Hope State Farm, which was
described as being in such bad
shape it was a disgrace to the
State. We cannot reproduce the
article as some one carried off
our copy Of the paper. The gen
eral criticism of the condition Of
the entire road was justifiable as
it is in terrible shape. But Capt.
Himel says that part fronting the
Hope farm is in good condition
and that he has always taken
pride in keeping it up-cutting
the grass. keeping the drainage
open and filling the holes, and that
it is the best stretch Of road be-
tween New Iberia and Morgan
City. Coast Herald.
If we erred in our statement in
including the Hope Farm front
with other portions of the public
road, it was done with no inten-
ton of rejecting on the manage
ment of Hope Plantation. Both
Of the stretches, facing these two
valuable properties was reported
in a deplorable condition, and we
could do none other than call the
attention of the Police jury to it,
least suspecting that Capt. Himel
looked after any portion of this
expensive highway, from the COM
plants reaching our office recent
ly. We trust the manager OF
Hope will appreciate the COM
ments, as made by the editor OF
the Enterprise, was done so
primarily to have this roadway
repaired and it's recent agitation
will result in decided change
in the near future. Had not
these matters been brought before
the public, steps would not have
been taken to build a new high
way for the use Of the public as
is contemplated at present. We re-
greet that we were misinformed as
to the Hope front which is looked
after by Capt. Himel, the energetic
manager of the State property.
