DON'T LIKE MASKS.
Positively Refuse to Wear Them in
Theatres.

Columbia, Feb. 22.-Masks as a
protection against influenza germs
are not the least bit popular in Barn
well. according to a telegram re-
ceiyed by the state health department
Yesterday from A. B. Patterson, chair
man of the Barnwell board of health.
The chairman wires as follows:
"The local health board has passed
regulations with regard to influenza
recurring the wearing of masks in
theatres and barber shops. Patrons
will not wear masks. Advise me how
tn compel them to do so and enforce
the regulations
DR.. G.. v. Akin, assistant state
health officer, communicated with
Barnwell with regard to the matter
and it seems that the town has not
been quarantined. School children,
II seems. wear the masks as a precau-
tionary measure against the disease.
Unless the disease becomes prevalent
in Barnwell, the state health authorl-
ties will probably act only in an ad-
visory capacity.
Masks were worn to some extent
during the fearful epidemic in 1918
10, but they somehow gave the wear
er a slightly dissipated appearance
and some of them were of such size
that the wearers seemed to be suffer-
ing from toothache and unmaskeo
pedestrians were sometimes inclined
to poke fun at the wearers asking
such frivolous questions as "Who hit
you on the jaw" Masks also caused
no little inconvenience to tobacco
smokers and to see a confirmed chew
er attempting to adjust his mask
while expectorating was a never fall
ing source of amusement to way
farers.
