Or c Hampson Jones, Health Com
missioner Of Maryland, states he is
convinced that the great number Of
people i'll in Chicago, and those dying
from pneumonia, do not indicate the
recurrence OF the influenza epidemic,
such as prevailed in the fall and win
ter of 191S-1919
According to the best information
| can obtain from Chicago" Dr. Jones
said. "the trouble there is not flu but
pneumonia. Pneumonia is communi-
cable, but not to the extent that flu
is This is, of course. the period when
pneumonia is greatest bat there is no
occasion for alarm
Health conditions now are particu-
larry good There is no tu and less
other illness than would be expected
al this season.
This rough weather now should not
worry anybody The best thing 10 do
Is to be careful about ones health
Those who haye work TO do should go
about it cheerfully. That will help a
great deal
There is nothing to indicate in
Chicago, New York. or elsewhere that
flu is coming back"

panied -Adjutant General George

Goodwin on a trip of inspection of
the larger towns of Aroostook county
for military purposes, has returned
to Boston and is much pleased with
what he saw on the trip, during
which they visited Houlton. Pressure
Isle, Caribou, Fort Fairfield and Fort
Kent, travelling by auto. The main
object was the establishment of some
kind Of military units in that section.
The party met with the most
cordial reception and hearty response
from the business people and will
shortly commence organizing d
National Guard Battalion there. The
adjutant generals department has
already asked for authority to organ
ize this unit in Aroostook county.
Colonel Scherer was very much
pleased with the county and it's
people and considers the inspection
most successful one and feels that
General Presson's claim about rails
ing organizations in our large coun-
try sections can be carried out and
that with the system the general has
advocated so long for the small
country sections, we can raise almost
any number of troops and that the
system being carried on in Maine is
the correct one to recruit the Ma
tional Guard, that is. personal atten-
ton and contact. 1t is sure to bring
results.
