FLU PRECAUT|0N
DR.. Wolverton Writes Letter
to Caution the People Dur
ing the Flu Epidemic, and
Advises Everyone to Wear
Masks
October %, 1918
To the People Of Linton and Vicin.

ity:
As City Health Officer and Dep.
uty County Health Officer, I wish
to urge upon you the necessity of
adopting strict measures for the con
troll OF the Influenza epidemic which
is sweeping the country. Unfortu.
nately, / was stricken down by the
disease before any other defense than
vaccination had been thought of.
We now know that the constant
wearing Of mask composed of
gauze cheesecloth, over the mouth
and nostrils, offers the best protec-
ton known. The very few doctors
and nurses still working, here in
Bismarck, are those who have worn
masks from the very beginning of
the epidemic. These masks are
made by the local (Bismarck) Red
Cross, and appeal to the Linton
Branch to at once drop all other
work and make masks as rapidly MS
possible. They may be given out
gratuitously to those who cannot
pay for them, and a small charge
made to cover material, ETC., to
others. The masks must be made
of 8 or 6 thicknesses Of gauze, like
the sample am inclosing, as a pat
tern for the Linton l'ranch to work
from. The part marked with black
thread goes under the chin. The
masks are to be worn by OlI, sick
and well alike, for the protection OF
those who have not yet contracted
the disease. In addition to masking,
O0ccln0ti0n will unquestion.
ably raise ones resistance agains,
infection. All adequate supply OF
vaccine will arrive within a day OF
two, II 1t is not already in Linton
Had not been twice vaccinated
| doubt that could have survived
Influenza when it struck me; for
as doctor, ] worked, caring for In.
fluenza sufferers, until pneumoni:
had begun. So be vaccnated a.
soon as possible. But put on
and heep on u Daash. TIL,
masks are easily cleaned by boiling
this should be done mt least one,
daily.
Ii you become sick, 60 to bed a
once: don't try to fight the disease
for it can beat you at that game.
| | will lie back on the Job at tn
earliest possible moment.
Sincerely,
w. G. Wolverton, M. d.

London, Sept 23.-The Austrian note
inviting the belligerents to confer
ence. not being a collective one but
addressed to each government separ.
ately. It is regarded as unlikely that
any joint reply on the part of the Allies
will be Forthcoming. Moreover, it is
pointed out, the attitude OF the various
Allied governments has been made
sufficiently clear by responsible min
listers for the European countries. as
has that OF the United States by Presi-

Washington. Oct, %. - When the
three weeks campaign closed oversub.
scription Of the Fourth Liberty Loan
appeared assured.
While official reports were lacking,
1t appeared that again the American
people had given to their government
not only what was asked, but more
than was asked in order that the war
against Germany and her allies might
be carried to q successful conclusion.
How far the total will run above the
$4,000, 100000 goal officials would not
attempt to estimate. 1t ell depends,
they said, on whether big financial In
terests at the last moment file the big
lump sum subscriptions expected of
them and whether the number of
smaller subscriptions by individuals 10
found to meet expectations.
Billion and Half In Day.
New subscriptions entered on the
last day and those made effective by
payment Of the 10 per cent install.
ment probably will amount to billion
and half dollars for the entire ma
tion. 1t was said.
For the next I'VE days banks in ev.
cry city and town in the United States
will be busy adding up subscriptions
Reports and payments then must be
made to federal reserve banks which
are expected to take at least five days
more to report to the treasury.
| 100000 Subscribers.
Indications are that the number ol
Observation-Disclosures will far exceed
20,000,000 and break all records fol
distribution of war bonds for this M
tion or any other.
The honor roll Of bond buyers will
include many who have not partici
pated in the first, second or third Lib
erty Loans, officials said.
1t will bear the names Of subjects o.
other governments neutral and befliR
erent. throughout the world. Ger
mans. iuterned in camps in this coun
try, and other whose sympathy is no
with their native Land, will be enrolled
