CLAMAN WARNS
AGAINST FLU
bronchial Colds" a \ d
Pneumonia Now Prevail &
ellt in Grand Forks.

Belief that the severe bronchial
colds now prevalent in Grand Forks
are a form OF influenza, and that
every precaution should be taken to
prevent the spread Of that disease, a.
we'll as that of pneumonia, Of which
q number of cases have also been
reported In Grand Forks, was ex-
pressed by Samuel C1annan, city
health ofmcer, ~ well AZ several doc
tors of the city today. Isl
I Influenza Is reported to be epidemic
in Chicago and other cities and the
disease In epidemic form appeArssto
be spreading In this direction. Sew
eral cases are reported today In
Fargo.
In the meantime the bronchial
colds from which q number Of Grand
Forks residents are suffering and
which are frequently accompanied
by high fever, appear to bear q very
close relation to the influenza which
swept over the country last year
Pneumonia Is also decidedly prev
alent in the city. although in most
cases 1t seems to have developed
without influenza, complications.
For these reasons Mr.. Claman urges
that precautions be taken by all resi-
dents of the city to prevent the re-
currence of a serious epidemic.
1t is probable that the school board
will be asked to put another nurse
on duty to assist in taking care of
the health Of the school children,
and such other precautions as are
possible will be taken by Mr.. Claman
and the city authorities.

Heavy Damage.
The intense heat and gas which ac-
companied the smoke is thought by
hotel officials to have caused about
$4,000 damage. All halls and
rooms, particularly in the rear Of the
hotel will require re-decorating. fur
niture was badly damaged and the
woodwork will have to be refinished-
Linen, bedding and other articles
were practically ruined.
All rooms in the hotel have been

painage From Blaze Tues
day Night is Estimated at
$4,000; Origin Of Conha-
grafton Still Remains I'm
known.

Facts revealed today Indicate that
night was more serious than at first
supposed. Effects of the smoke on
the lungs Of q man who was gassed
while serving overseas nearly caused
the enactment of a tragedy and to-
day money loss by smoke and fire
was estimated by the manager to be
about 100000.
Tho cause Of the Are which broke
out in the rear Of h basement Is
unknown. .
The conflagration in the basement
made volumes Of smoke that poured
mp the freight elevator, belching gas
fumes and giving OF heat at all floors
various floors soon filled with smoke
which rushed through the transoms
into the rooms, forcing guests to run
down the halls to the lower floors.
Gassed Again.
Probably the most serious phase
Of the Are occurred in Room 424 on
the fourth floor Of the hotel, where
l. Andrew Castle of Chicago was
writing q letter to his mother, and
Lester Nathan Of New York City was
filling out order blanks when the
thrush of smoke gave them tne
alarm. .,
Both men started down the hall
they declare, when Castle. who had
been gassed while serving overseas
for ten months with the 122nd Ma
chine Gun Battalion 3Srd division be-
gan choking on the fumes of the
smoke and gases and retreated to his
room where he broke the glass from
the window to secure fresh air and
call for assistance.
Nathan who had been in the lead
did not miss his companion at first,
and, after reaching the third hoor
began assisting women guests down
the stairs. believing that his friend
had escaped with him.
Men in the crowd beneath secured
q ladder which they placed against
the side of the hotel. but 1t would not
reach the fourth floor. Two travel
ing men secured a rope and made
their way to the roof where they tied
the rope to a chimney and passed 1t

Cream shipments from Thompson,

the scarlet fever epidemic which
threatened the community last week.
The trained nurses sent from this
city to investigate the conditions have
already determined the nature and
extent of the epidemic and report that
only mild ase exist. The exact num-
Der Of cases which o exist could not

MIGRATORY FAMILIES
WILL o BE ABLE TO
MOVE IN THE FALL

Migratory families OF Grand Forks
are going to meet serious difficulties
next spring when the annual exodus
from flats to private residences gen
orally takes place. according to w. H.
Kelsey. local realtor, who declares
that the housing situation in Grand
Forks will be more acutely felt at that
time.
MI. Kelsey states that a large num-
Der of Grand Forks people move into
fats in h fall and back to resi-
dences in the spring in order to escape
the fuel and furnace" cArbuncle that
reposes on the fac Of northern states.
These people were fairly successful in
moving into fats this fall but when
the time comes to secure residence
places for the summer homes will not
be available.
In illustrating the coneested resi-
dence condition Of Grand Forks at the
present time, MI. Kelsey gave his es-
innate that there are two hundred
houses In which two families Z liv-
ing and n hundred houses in which
three families are living. Some small
houses of the city form the abode Of
ten to fifteen people, according to Mr..
Kelsey.
Aside from this. realtors Of the city
point out that there is scarcely q
vacant fat in the city and that houses
for rent are very scarce. Realtors de-
clare that daily their Offices are flood.
ed with requests for houses to be
rented and that they seldom have any
to rent. 4
This condition Of affairs is keeping
fully 1000 people out of the city at
this time, according to Mr.. Kelsey.
who states there are hundreds of
people who would move to Grand
Forks If suitable living quarters could
be secured. There is q constant de-
mand for houses to rent but the sup
ply is very. limited and whenever a
vacancy occurs it is snapped up imme-
diately. by some local family. -

The Lakeland evening telegram., 1920-12-24
(By Dr.. c. |. Stacyl

Ny ~. ~ - 0s~Sy/
Yonder in the great city | heard
the Orchestra play. Drums, 6fes.
cornets. horns Of every description
were playing at the same time. Each
seemed to be trying to make itself
heard. Each wanted its message to
reach the ears of the hearers.
But above them all there sounded
one clear note. 1t came from little
instrument in the back of the stage. 1t
looked like small round piece Of
black wood. They called it a picco-
10. 1t was not attractive in appear
ance. But its notes could be heard
above all the booming drums and the
glitterins horns.
So in the great Orchestra of Life
today there are many sounds. And
also many discords. Each one is try
ing to make its message lounder and
more compelling than its fellows.
There is the booming bass drum
called Bolshevism. 1t is made of
Class Hatred. stretched tight over the
circle of the Earth. Its operator is
the Devil. its object is destruction, and
its end is death.
There is the snare" drum of ra-
cial enmity. playing race against race,
the world over. The big bass horn
called big business sounds its insist
ent note and demands attention. The
clear tones of the cornet called "Hu-
manitarianism" sound out bold and
strong and beautiful. The cry Of an
alto sounds out the sob of a worlds 5
suffering, and its doleful mate walls Of
little starving children. And greed,
and lust, and hate, and war, and fam
inc, and sel6shness, each have their
note, and each claims for itself atten-
ton.
But above this discordant Babel OF
sounds there rings out one clear tone,
like the piccolo in the orchestra. Like
that unattractive black stick. he hath
no form nor comeliness, and when we
shall see him, there is no beauty tha,
we should desire him" He is de.
spised and rejected of men, and W.
hid our faces from hin"
Yet that note demands attention
and compels admiration. 1t is insist
ent with power not Of earth. 1t pen.
etrates where the earth-notes can no
reach. 1t touches the heart, and W.
respond; it reaches the soul and W,
obey. Whence comes it. and what il
the secret of its powera
From the back of earth's platform
