The man who owns his home
and is surrounded by happy fami-
ly will never become an anarchist
or a bomb-thrower." This state
ment in the literature of the Missis-
sippi Land Owners Association is
absolutely true. We may some
times think that we are lacking big
industrial centers in Mississippi, and
that we are losing thereby. but it is
likely an asset after all to have few
OF them. The serious trouble being
experienced throughout our country
Is largely due to unrest and dissat-
isfaction among people who do not
own their own homes and live from
hand to mouth, although receiving
big wages"

INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC.
u. s. Public Health Service Saws
Recurrence Possible.

recurrence Possible.
Z. 5. WARNING AGAINST INFLUENZA.
Influenza is spread by direct and
indirect contact.
Probably. but by no means GER
tainly. there will be a recurrence of
the influenza epidemic this year.
Indications are that should it oc-
cur it will not be a. severe as the
previous pandemic.
Aberdeen officials. the board of
health of the city and state should
be prepared in the event Of a recur-
renee.
The fact that a previous attack
brings immunity in certain per-
centage of cases should allay fear
on the part of those afflicted in the
previous epidemic.
What is Spanish influenza? Is
i something new2 Does il come
from Spain2 The disease called
Spanish influenza usually resem-
bles a very contagious kind of cold
accompanied by fever, pains in the
head. eyes, ears. back or other parts
OF the body. and feeling of severe
sickness. In most of the cases the
symptoms disappear after three or
four days, the patient then rapidly
recovering; some of the patients.
however, develop pneumonia or in
Illumination of the ear, or meningi-
It's; and MANY OF these, complicated
cases die. Sometimes the symp-
toms are so mild that the true con-
dition is unsupported. Spanish in
iuenza Is apparently identical with
the epidemics of influenza of earlier
years.
In this connection attention il
called to the fact that the pandemic
Of 1SS9-1S91 originated in China
and was carried to Russia, where it
was known as Chinese influenza.
From Russia it spread throughout
Europe and was spoken of as Rus
sian influenza Introduced from
Europe into the United States it
was called European Influenza and
finally when it crossed the Pacific it
was called American Influenza
Epidemics of influenza have Wis
tied this country since 1647. 1t is
interesting to know that this first
epidemic was brought here from
Valencia, Spain. Since that time
there have been numerous epidem-
les of the disease. In 1889 and |
1890 the disease was epidemic oyer
practically the entire civilized |
world. Three years later was an
other fiare-up of the disease. Both |
times the epidemic spread widely |
over the United States.
Although the recent epidemic is |
called Spanish influenza, inyesti-
CATION has shown that ii did not |
originate in Spain.
We now know that there was an
undue prevalence of influence in the
United States for several years pre-
cedlng the recent great pandemic.
Because the disease occurred i'm a
mild form, and because the public
mind was focused on the war, this
Increased prevalence of the disease
escaped attention. Not until the
epidemic appeared in severe form
in Boston in September, 1918, did
it excite any special interest"
