A CASE OF FLU"
AT GERMANTOWN
County Health Officer j. j. Murphy
COnfers With State Health Depart
menf On Local Conditions

County Health officer j. J. Murphy
has reported case of Flu" at Ger
mantown.
The Health Officer claims the Span
ish Influenza" is nothing more or less
than the old fashioned grip. The dam
ger is pneumonia which often follows.
The local cases are few and scattered.
Dr. Murphy advises avoiding crowded
places, keeping the mouth and nose
clean by using some antiseptic wash.
The FLU" is an epidemic in some
places, whereas the grip was sporadic.
This morning. County Health officer
Murphy called up the State Health
Department. relative to closing the
schols. but this is thought unneces-
sary at the present time. Everybody
ssould take precaution to avoid colds,
crowds. and public gatherings.
The State Board of Health assured
Dr. Murphy that ii is not necessary TO
quarantine family where flu exists,
and the people in the house may go
about their usual occupations. but it
Is necessary to isolate the patient and
those attending the patiennt must
wash hands with bi-chloride and use
every precaution.

AMERICAN BOYS
AND GIRLS CAN HELP

Unless millions of American boys
and girls dig out clothing they no
longer need and turn it over to the
Red Cross during this week, millions
of boys and girls in those parts of
Belgium and France still behind the
German line are going to be cold this
coming winter. Every American
youngster who wants to help keep
these millions of unfortunate children
warm should see to it that the things
he is through. wearing get to the Red
Cross collections stations this week.
He should see to it that all the boys
and girls of his acquaintance do their
duty in this respect
The children in the occupied coun-
tries need about everything in the list
OF wearing apparel Counting grown
ups there are 100000 people in di-
rect need of clothing. Many Of them
have scarcely enough to cover them
selves. The Red Cross hopes to gath
er at least 5000 tons of clothing that
week, an amount equal to that collect
ed in the clothing drive last March

LAST CALL FOR
BELGIAN CLOTHING

The committee in charge of the Red
Cross drive for collecting clothes for
the Belgians wishes to thank the pub
lie for the splendid way in which it
has responded to the appeal.
Aslarge quantity of warm, useful
garments has been given, and more
things are promised for the end of
the week. The Motor Messengers
have been kept busy collecting peo-
pies donations and are ready for fur
Their calls if needed
Tomorrow is the last day of the
drive and from present appearances
it looks as though Annapolis would
easily come up to her required quota
of 1000 pounds.
Annapolitans have every right to
be proud of their showing in all kinds
of war work-with the numerous SER
vice affiliations of so many members
of the population the calls to patriotic
duties perhaps meet quicker re-
Spouse than in other communities less
CLOSELY in touch with Uncle Sans
sailor lads. The generous way in
which this appeal from the Red Cross
has been met speaks splendidly fol-
the fine spirit in which the people OF
Annapolis and the county are start
ing in on their second winter OF
working to win the war.

HUN AIRMAN TURNS
GUN ON HELPLESS
Falling to His Death, MaIevolent
German Shoots Women
and Children.

The desperate malevOlence Of a Ger
man airman, who, falling to his death,
tried to Ego west In style" by taking
with him as many women and children
as he could is graphically described
by Mrs. Laura Forest of the American
fund for French wounded in a letter
from Epernay, where she had taken
part in the evacuation of hospital
before the German advance and wit
messed the fall of the Hun plane. The
letter tells how the BOche even after
he had fallen deliberately continued
to fire upon nOncOmbatant spectators.
Mrs. Forests letter follows:
ut was just after breakfast on Sun
day when the guns announced the ap-
prOach Of an enemy plane and we
crowded around the doors of our no.
tel and watched what We thought was
gerOus move, the sudden dropping
down of the plane through the area of
bursting shells and out of the reach
of the guns. Right over the building
he came, raking the street with ma
chine-gun fire-and then came such a
burst of JOY from the threats of the
people as Is seldom heard: I'll est
tombe! II est tOmbe! Gle has fallen.)
"When I found myself I was run
ming with the men and women and
children of Epernay, and with them I
Kept on running till the fallen plane
was In sight. Wounded as the avia-
tor was, he turned his machine gun on
the crowd and fred, killing a woman
and child. And still we ran on and
found him and only the arrival Of
motor with the police let him live as
long as he did. He died within a few
hours. The second man was buried
under the machine and the crowd was
well dispersed before he was brought
out, badly wounded. and carried away.
I never heard whether he lived or
died."

SUBSTITUTE ENLISTMENT
Story Of Friendship Like That Of pa-

An incident has come to light at
CuerO, Tex, In connection with the
last draft call which is very much
like the story Of Damon and Pythias.
The local board had exhausted Its
list of town clerks and had taken up
the claims of farmers to select the
men who could best be spared from
their work. Emil Goehring was among
the boys chosen to go and Wallace
Mccormick was deferred until later
call.
Then the word came that Emil had
sickness In his family and Mccormick
went before the board and obtained
permission to get Goehring's tag and
60 in his stead.
Goehring was very appreciative OF
the kindness done him and made ar
rangements for q star to 60 on the
county's service flag for Wallace.

st. Louis Boy Tells of How Ma.

An Interesting description Of an at.
tack by United States marines on a
German machine-gun position is given
In letter by Henry A. Bauman to his
father at st. Louis. He says he is suf-
fering from sores caused by gas, but
otherwise is all right. He says his
company In several fights have killed
more than 500 Germans and captured
800.
"Our battalion was picked to take a
very strong machine-gun position held
by the Germans" Bauman writes.
"They were dug In In a large strip
of woods, and the big rocks made the
position what looked to me like reg
ular nest of fortresses.
ut sure was a sight as we marched
across an open field in a valley, about
700 yards. There were three waves.
We scared the Germans SO badly,
though, that they never tried to hold
us, but beat 1t, leaving lot Of guns
and ammunition In our hands.

attack, which never came. The next
day we made another attack where
they fought like HI for a while. but

them that they broke and ran again.

did. They throw bomb at US. and

we killed 500 Boches and captured
