Influenza Situation
improves at Eaton

EATON. O., Oct 9.-The influenza
situation here and in the immediate
vicinity is regarded as slightly i'm
proved, after raging the last ten days
or longer. Fewer new cases are be
ing recorded, it is said, and the death
rate has diminished the last day or
two. 1t would appear the physicians
have gained the upper hand of the sit
uation, after a most heroic struggle,
and it is felt the worst has passed.
However, several local cases still are
regarded as grave, but for the most
part those afflicted are getting on sat
isfactorily Public gatherings are be-
ing discouraged and every precaution
calculated to improve the situation is
being exercised
