u. S. Public Health Service Begins Ma
tion-wide Health Campaign.

Washington, D. C.--In order TO limit
the spread of Spanish iniSnza and
keep it from making still further in
roads on the nations war production
the u. S. Public Health Service under
authority OF the resolution just passed
by Congress apprOpriating 81 5000
TO combat the disease has inausurated
nationwide campaign OF public
health education in cooperation with
state and local health officers to teach
the people of this country how to safe
guard their health, keep themselves
physically fit and so help maintain the
high standard OF war production at
taincd within the last few months.
Secretary McAdoo, under whose d.
rection the work of the q. S. Public
Health Service is carried on, is taking
an active interest in the health cam
pagn. Despite the tremendous de-
mands on his time because OF the
Fourth Liberty Loan and the work or
the Railroad Administration, he hrs
personally asked the help OF the na-
TONS newspapers in putting this I'M
portant educational work before the
people.
In response to request for definite
advice concerning Spanish influenza,
Surgeon General Rupert Blue of the
L. 5. Public Health Service has au-
thori2ed the following statement:
The disease now spreading over
this country Is highly catching and
may invade your community ana
attack you and your family unless
you are very careful.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1918-10-16

Influenza is crowd disease.
Therefore keep out OF crowds as
much as possible.
Influenza probably spreads most
ly by inhaling some of the tiny
droplets OF germ-laden mucus
sprayed into the air when ignorant
or careless persons sneeze or
cough without using n handker-
chief. Therefore cover up each
cough and sneeZe.
Influenza is probably spread also
by the filthy habit OF splitting on
sidewalks, street cars and 9TH
CIR public places. Therefore do
not spit on the floor or sidewalk.
Influenza is probably spread also
by the use of common drinking
cups and the use OF common
towels in public places Therefore
shun the common drinking cup and
the roller towel In public places.
II you feel sick and believe you
have Spanish" influenza, 90 TO
bed and send for the doctor. This
is important. Don't get up too
soon, your heart feels as tired as
your legs and needs rest.
I'm all health matters follow
your doctors advice, and obey the
regulations OF your local and state
health officers.
All that has been said above
about spanish" influenza is true
also of colds, bronchitis, pneu-
monia and tuberculosis. Do your
part TO keep them away.
