'FLU COMING BACK
At STATE CAPITAL
May Be Necessary 70 Again
Close Charleston Schools
and Theatres.

CHARLESTON, W. va, Feb. IS
Influenza has not been eradicated
from Charleston by any means, accord
Ing to statement OF DR.. r. T. Davis,
city health commissioner, on top of
many rumors to the effect that the
schools would be closed again ana that
possibly 1t might be necessary to close
theatres and business houses once
more.
It Is absolutely necessary th4t per-
sons who sneeze, cough and spit be
kept away from public gatherings in
the opinion OF the health commission
er il the regulations that were en-
forced when the epidemic was at its
height are not to be imposed again.
The problem which now occupies
the health authorities is whether or
not the city should be closed up again.
Rigs observance Of precautionary
measures is the only way DR.. Davis
can see out Of such course.
Children who have been out of
school owing to illness are to have q
medical examination before being per
mitted to return to their studies and
the situation becomes the more alarm
ing with smallpox cases here and there
to add to the embarrassment OF au-
'thorities named to guard the public
health.
