were few after-claps. Restoration to

Drs. A. G. Love and c. B. Davenport.
in a very recent number of the Archives

and individuals who are city bred and
who live in crowded. congested quarters
appear able to resist influenza better
than rural residents
1t seems that at least . per cent.
more victims of influenza. 10 per cent.
more pneumonia and 30 per cent. more
sickness in general occurred in rural
communities than in urban districts
This curious, unexpected situation is
contrary to that expected from the pop
ular belief in and praise of country life.
Perhaps 1t is due to the fact that con-
gestion and dirt breed disease early and
the weaklings are thus killed off and
eliminated in city life before adult age
is reached.
