STATE BOARD OF HEALTH ACTS.
In Regard to Patients Who Develop In
fuenza.

Instructions have been sent by Sec
rotary G. F. Dalton of the state board
of health to the health officers through
out the state covering the subject Of
Spanish influenza These instructions
are as follows:
Present indications ar~~that within
a few weeks, and possibly few days,
Vermont will be visited by an epidemic
Of the so-called Spanish influenza. Al
ready there are many cases at some Of
our seaports and the disease will grad
ually invade the interior states.
"The apparent seriousness Of this dis
ease makes it necessary that some pre-
cautions be taken to limit its spread.
The disease is not essentially different
from the influenza or grip which we have
been familiar with for a good many
years (it is called Spanish because the
present pandemic began in SPAIN; the
same germ causes this disease; it is
present in the seeretions of the nose,
throat and air passages; 1t is given off
in the act of coughing, sneezing and talk
ing by droplet infection. The symptoms
are fever, chills, head and joint pains
and catarrhal discharges .gom the nose,
throat and eyes. These symptoms last
about three days.
"The disease itself is not serious. The
complications frequently are. Hence, the
disease should not be sighted. The pa
tient should 20 to bed at once and call
his physician. The complications are
bronchial pneumonia, occasionally lobar
pneumonia and nephritis. These, of
course, are serious.
"The disease is hereby declared to be
a contagious and infections disease, I'M
der section 6203, general laws. In ac-
cordance with said section, the following
rules and regulations are promulgated:
Influenza Is hereby added to the list
of diseases to be reported by physicians
Every physician shall promptly report
each case attended or prescribed for by
him TO the local health offer. The health
officer shall visit and placard the home
premises of the patient.
An persons should understand that
this is a contagious disease and that
the patient should be isolated in the
home and especially from all visitors and
neighbors. Handkerchiefs, napkins and
towels used by the case may indirectly
cause the disease. IL is quite possible
that healthy persons may become car
riers. Children in families in which there
are cases should not attend school; and
no one from such families should at
tend public gatherings, especially picture
shows, or other indoor entertainments.
Rational observance Of these precautions
may do much to limit the spread Of this
disease and consequent effects.
Health officers will promptly report
all cases to the state board of health,
as these reports must be forwarded to
Washington at the earliest possible mo-
ment. Per order Of. thg state board of
health, Charles F. Dalton, secretary, Bur.
lington, VT, Sept. 81, 1918"

HEART TO HEART TALKS
By oscAR GODFREY KLINeER.

The barber shop is a very ancient
institution and finds frequent mem
ton in literature as a place where
men meet to hear the neys, learn the
latest gossip or exchange opinions on
every subject under the sun. From
time immemorial the last conner has
had to await his turn in the chair,
and while waiting has found enter
tainment in conversation with friend
and stranger alike. The barber shop
consequently is place where one
can easily discover the character Of
men and learn the news which direct
their lives.
/ mention this because it was in
the barber shop that | learned the eff
feet of churchless Sundays on men
who do not go to church. One Of
these men described the preceding
Sunday as "the longest and lone
soonest day" he had ever experienced.
Others endorsed the experience as
their own. The thing missed by
these men was not the message Of
the pulpit, or the hymns of praise, or
the prayers of the congregation !;
these they would not have heard had
the churches been open. 1t was not
these essential things that they miss
ed, but the ringing of the church
bells! The quiet morning calm Of
the Sabbath, always charged with a
sense of nearness of the Infinite, had
not been disturbed by the usual sum
mons to worship, and the unusual ex-
lperience laid its impress on mems
hearts. The Sabbath day had an
element Of strangeness in it that was
disturbing.
And this experience Of lonesome
churchless Sunday leads to some re-
Elections which men who do not go
to church, or are not identified with
the church ought to make. The
first reflection is the absolute neces-
sity Of the church to the well-being
of every community. Suppose that
throughout Tennessee all Of the
churches should permanently close,
all of the congregations idsband and
all Of the pastors enter on secular
business; what would be the effect on
the state in. say, five years? Would
these men who do not support the
church by their presence at worship
or by their means, be willing to live
in the state and rear their children
here under such conditions? With
out the inspiration of congregational
worship and preaching Of the Word
of God at stated periods, what would
become Of tn esocial conscience?
What sort of collective character
would the community have? Growth
of social morality requires the inspi-
ration Of a social idea that can be
found only in the Kingdom of God,
and the proclamation Of the true pull
pit has odo mainly with the laws
and conditions of that ideal. Silence
the pulpit and the people would soon
lose the vision, without which they
perish.
A second reflection that ought to
be made by men who do not go to
church is, that the church is taken
too much as a matter of course. 1t
was here centuries before we came
/ nd will be here centuries after we
are dead. Into its benefcent influ-
ence we were born as we were born
Iiuto the atmosphere and sunlight. All
that we most prize, the sanctity Of
home, the protection of the state,
our religious and civil liberty, the
right to life, liberty, and the pursuit
of happiness, which means so much ia
