last night for the purpose of coz sid

sary to establish quarantine res lla-
tions, including the closing OF the
schols, churches, picture shows, the

ness establishments The Board had

ance, ne number reported sick with

showed that the attendance this
month and at the present time is
above the average for January in nor
NAL years There were also reports
from ten physicians. Eight OF the
ten stated positively that in their
opinion it was not necessary Or ad-
visable to close the schools at this
time. Their reports showed that
there are not anything like as many
cases Of influenza in Sumter as there
were at the time the schools were
closed last October, nor is the dis
ease generally as Of as severe type
as it was in the fall. There has been
an increase in the number Of cases
during the past few weeks, but the
situation is not as serious nor as
alarming as q portion of the public
has been led to believe by the de-
velopment OF a small sized panic over
the flare UP Of the epidemic in sew
eral sections of the Sts->e.
