THE RED CROSS
AND THE FLU

The avalanche of patients that
have been thrown onto the hos
pitfalls in the present flu epidemic
have taxed their resources beyond
their limit, especially in the mat
ter of sheets, bed shirts and
children's diapers.
With characteristic prompt
ness and efficiency the Red Cross
units have come forward and fur
nished the supplies as needed,
very much to the relief of the
hospitals.
The Lihue unit Immediately re
Sponded by contributing from
their stock. already made up. %
bed shirts with handkerchief in
every pocket. These were for
adults. They have since made up
and turned over 200 children's
bed shirts, also 100 sheets and "a
dozen children'S diapers. They
have also made up several hund-
red gauze masks.
Much of this was from Red
Cross material. The rest was from
goods supplied by the hospital.
The needs seem to be unending
and calls are still coming in for
more supplies.

In this district they have only
three cases of the real thing, the
infection having been brought di-
rect from Makaweli. Otherwise
this region is free. They cOngrat-

theirs few months ago, and are
now in Il measure immune.

Kilauea reports that they have
only two cases, and they are very
mild. The current reports of
large numbers being affected
there, they say, are without foun-
dation.
No cases are reported from
Hanalei.
The Koloa, Eleele and KalaheO
schools were closed yesterday and
will remain closed until further

THE INFLUENZA
SITUATION

Apparently we have not yet
reached the peak of the pilikia as
far as the influenza situation is
concerned. The disease is still
on the increase in that it is
spreading to new centers, and
that the numbers are still piling
up in the old ones.
Mdkd,ceH
Camp 1, one of the largest on
the place, which has been free
heretofore is now seriously affect
ed, and large numbers are coming
in daily from there. Yesterday
there were 10 or 20. The aggre
gate number of cases thus far is,
600; deaths 30; cases dismissed as
cured 800. One additional ward
has been added to the equipment
during the week and a lot of ad
ditional beds and mattresses have
been secured from Honolulu. Miss
Paul, the new child welfare nurse,
is an invaluable asset in dealing
with the situation.
Lihue
At Lihue there are three hos
pital institutions: the original
hospital with the parke children's
ward, the Armory, and the con-
valescent hospital at the Arthur
Rice residence, makai of the hotel.
In the former there are so, at the
ArmOry 40, and at the Gonzales
cent 33, making total of 1G2, but
of course, these numbers change
from hour to hour. No deaths
have been reported thus far, and
So have been sent home recovered.
Saturday morning six men
nurses and assistants arrived
from Honolulu to help handle the
situation, and were placed mostly
at the ArmOry. This has relieved
the situation very much, as the
local nurses and helpers were
breaking down under the strain.
Two or three days of strenuous
service has been about all they
could stand. Miss Castleman
Mrs. Hay, Mrs. McGreggor, Miss
Mcintyre, Miss Sidlowski, Mrs
BergstrOm and Miss COrlett, have
given out, mostly being victims OF
the flu.
Miss Cottrell, a nurse from HO
nolulu, came this morning to re
lieve the strain at the hospital
where Miss Brewer and Mrs. Lyd
gate have been "holding the fort
