INVESTIGATING THE FLU

Ever since the appearance in this
country OF the so-called Spanish in
fiuenza the scientists have been do
irg their very best to discover the
cause of this disease and to combat
Its spread and the toll of death tina.
it has exacted here as elsewhere. The
disease at first regarded as a trifiing
ailment and given but little atten-
ton by the laity, was at once recog
nized as menace by the physicians
and the public was warned and urged
to be careful. Ordinary care did not
stop the advance of the disease; 1t
spread faster and attacked more peo-
pie than any epidemic ever known in
this country and the totals brought in
from every section of the United
States, after six months suggest that
half million people have died from
Influenza or pneumonia, which has
followed the influenza in many nj
stances.
AT its height during November and
December the epidemic mas now ap-
parently subsidized in a great part of
the country and it would be only nat
ural for the people to forget the hor-
rors of the worst period, the suaran-
tines and the masks and the closing
of schools and churches and theaters
and the urging of people to keep away
from each other.
Florida suffered less than the ma
jority of the states, much less than
those where the population is more
congested and where the winter
meant the keeping indoors of great
majority, and much crowding among
the poorer classes. But small as our
losses were in comparison to other
places Florida was not exempt, and
thousands were desperately i'll with
the disease and many deaths OCCURRED
1t is therefore most important that
we do not forget about the flu as it
was finally called, and only right that
we should be interested in the inves-
legations which are proceeding to
discover and find a remedy that will
check the trouble If it reappears.
Medical men declare that the in
fluenza is almost certain to recur. at
least in another winter. and as it has
teen evidently proved that having had
