TEXAs STATE BOARD OF
HEALTH ON THE FLU

The struggle to make the world
safe for democracy has ended in vic
tory; but Influenza has not sgned
any armistice. Coming from the
/ Orient, almost before we realized it,
severity, this pestlence has taken its
sad toll of nearly a half million of
our loved ones During the month of
October a hundred and twenty-eight
thousand cases were reported in Tex
as alone, and six thousand deaths
were caused by Influenza and pDeu-
mona. Undertakers were unable to
supply collins, and many bodies were
buried in pine boxes without any
death certificate or burial permit
Truly Eternal Vigilance is no more
the price Of Liberty than it is a safe
guard of Health.
The first epidemic wave subsded
and there was general r,ia.-'-r e
precautions and return to normal
commercial relations. Scientific in
vestigators have not been able TO
find the specific cause of the disease,
which plainly showed itself to be worry
contagious (catching), nor have they
been able to suggest any specific
remedy for its prevention or cure.
General preventative measures of
isolation, quarantine. disinfec;ion.
and Improvement Of hygienic and
sanitary conditions have proven ef-
iective in the control of its spread.
Until more certain data for the pre-
vention and cure of this disease is
brought to light, the State Board Of
Health desires to impress the follow
ing measures upon the general pub
lie:
!. Neither age, sex, race nor sta
ton in society offers any indicated
safeguard from an attack
2. The disease seems to enter the
body through the respiratory system,
and any conditions giving rise to com
mon colds such as cold, damp, and
changaable weather, has given re-
newed impetus to the subsiding
waves
3 One attack may not insure pro-
lection against another, and the mild
est cases may be followed by the
most severe complications; or may be
the source Of the most severe conta-
