ERAL TO AVOID "FLU."

In letter received by the health de-
partment from Surgeon General Blue
relative to the probability of another
influenza epidemic, it is stated that
there is no certainty that there will
be an epidemic this season.
General Blues letter. however. ur-
ges that every precaution should be
taken to prevent the existence of
sources of contamination. such as the
public drinking cup, public towels.
and unsanitary conditions where peo-
pie assemble in crowds and where con
tact between those having colds or
influenza and those in good aealth
may occur.
Surgeon General Blue states further
that thus far no serum that is a
specific for influenza has been discov-
cred and therefore every precartion
against the spread Of the disease
through contact should be avoided.
The letter bears out theories that as
far as known at present influenza
is a crowd disease and must be COM
bated on that basis.

EUROPEAN IMMIGRATION
Where the People of America Come
From,

"IIigh hope for the proposed Ameri-
canized program is held out by 4 study
of the remarkable way the United
States has absorbed the amazingly
large foreign element of its popula-
ton" says q bulletin from the Nat
ional Geographic Society.
In describing the volume Of this in
hqX, not generally realized, which was
halted by the European war, the bull
letin quotes from a communication -
The Society, as follows:
"Who can estimate our debt to i'm
migration? Thirty-three million people
have made the long voyage from al
ierf shores to our own since ii was pro-
claimed that all men are born free and
equal, and libertys eternal fire was
kindled first on American soil. 1t is az
il half the former German empire
should embark for America, or all Of
pre-war England except the county OF
Kent. 1t is as if all the population of
all the states of the United States west
of the Mississippi, plus that Of Ala
bama, should have come bodily TO
America.
History records no similar move
ment to population which in rapidity
or volume can equal this. Compared
to it, the hofdcs that invaded Europe
from Asia, great and enormous as
they were, were insignificant.

children are now in good truth bone
Of our bone and blood of Our blood.
Not long ago America crossed the

note the composition of that popula
tion.

Warm Colors for Winter.

One doesn't really need roaring fire
to make the living room a place Of
glowing warmth and cheer because
more than likely it isn't the tempcra-
ture of the room but the appearance
that makes it seem cold. Just let the
furniture be ranged stifny around the
wall and restrict your color scheme to
lifeless browns and blues and see how
unpleasant it seems. But arrange your
furniture in inviting groups, so that
the chairs fairly nod to each other in
invitation for a chat, and put warm
colored hangings at the windows and
colorful upholstery or cushions on the
furniture and see VIVA; a wonderful
difference it makes. You can make the
same room seem cool in summer and
warm in winter by having two sets Of
chintz draperies and pillow covers.
OF course red is the very warmeSt
color there is, but that is not to say
that it is the most suitable. In most
shades red is too glaring, but any OF
the reddish browns that range all the
way from the shade of light autumn
leaves to deep, rich copper color are
excellent. Green and blue are the two
coolest colors there are, and even these
are warmer in some shades than in
others. AS a general rule the neutral,
dull shades are the coldest\ so in Sc
lecting winter furnishings one should
see that the warmer more intense
tints predomnate Just as the trees
put on their most radiant foliage for
the cold autumn days the house should
put on CHEEKY, inviting cOlOrs when
October waneS.
