PAINT CAR TURNS
over IN WEST END
THE OLD SAYING OF PAINTING
THE TOWN is APPLICABLE
TO THIS CASE.

The large paint car Of the Warren
Paint Co. of Louisville, became uncon.
trollable this morning when returning
to the city and in some manner one
Of the front wheels broke down swerv.
ing the car into the pavement at the
corner of the yard of w. d. Hastings,
spilling paint all over the earth and
pavement.
J. "A. Ketchum, Jr., was driving the
car, and he was painted like Joseph's
coat of many colors. The car was
loaded with all colors of paint and
when the spill came there was a gen.
eral mingling and mixing and blend
ing of hues. The old saying paint
ing the town red," applies to this
case, except, it should be painting
the town in all the colors of the rain
bow. Fortunately no one was hurt in
the melee.
Besides young Ketchum in the car
there were two other gentlemen, who
had charge of the sign painting.

There was a sentiment of reassur-
ance among local physicians, both
public and private, today in their com.
ments on the influenza epidemic stu.
alton in Columbia and Maury county.
It was stated that the situation is
we'll in hand and that there have
been fewer number of new cases re-
ported during the past "a hours. Wild
rumors of many deaths and an in
creasing spread of the disease were
characterized as merely historical
expressions that have gained circula-
ton without justification. Public
health officials have close watch on
the situation and it is known that the
deaths in Maury county have been as
few as could have been expected and
much less in number than in other
places.

tccted from any conditions that might
lead to these complications.
Persons developing the influenza
should observe the following recon.
mendations:
Go to be on the first symptoms
of cold or grip.
Stay there until one day after
temperature is normal. Stay in
the house until three days after
temperature is normal.
Have plenty of fresh air
through thorough ventilation of
the sick room. Keep body sur
faces warm.
While patient has temperature
only liquid foods should be given.
These should be chiefly hot drinks
and soups. Drink an abundance
of water.
The only medicines required,
usually, are an initial purge and
something to partially relieve the
discomfort. This, however, should
be left to the attendant physi-
clan and should not be prescribed
by the patient, his family or the
druggist.
Allow no one in the room save
necessary attendant and the at
tendant should wear a gauze
mask in the room. The attend
