Death of Anna Nelson

The people of Kendrick and the
surrounding community were deep
ly grieved and shocked to hear OF
the untimely death Of Miss Anna
Nelson, who until year ago, was a
resident of kendrick. Details of
her death are rather meager but it
is known that Miss Nelson died on
Tuesday from the effects of injuries
received when, on the Saturday be-
fore, she fell three stories from the
window of her apartment in Seattle.
Miss Nelson resided in Kendrick
for several years and while here
was closely identified with the
Vollmer-ClearWater interests as ac-
countant and bookkeeper. Previous
to her position with the Farmers
Bank as bookkeeper. she was ac-
countant for the Kendrick Ware
house and Milling Company and
her worth in both capacities was
appreciated by her employers. She
made several investments from her
savings, in real estate in this vicin-
ity and, in this way, accumulated
considerable property during her
residence in Kendrick.
In January of 1919, she went to
Seattle and accepted a position with
Federal Reserve Bank IN that
city. Several weeks ago, she be-
came i'll and this illness resulted in
nervous breakdown. From that
time on, she was under the constant
care OF her nurse and stayed IN hel
apartment. The supposition i:
that, during the momentary absence
of the nurse and while suffering
from the effects of delirium, sht
either fell or jumped from th'
window of the apartment.
The body arrived in Kendrlck OF
the 9 a. m. train on Thursday ant
was taken in charge by the Rebek
abs of which order she was mem
Der. The burial took place at p
m. in the Kendrick Cemetery, Rev
Hood of the Presbyterian churcI
officiating. Owing to the presen
influenza restrictions. it was no
possible to hold church service
Many beautiful floral Offering
were received from the numerou
: friends of the deceased.
Anna Nelson was born at Hutchi
son, Minnesota, April Is, 1882. Sh
came here with her parents in 100
and resided here until going t
Seattle year ago. She is surviy
ed Dy her father, H. N. Nelson O
Charleston, WASH, a sister, Miss Id
Nelson of Portland, Oregon and
: brother, Neal N. Nelson of Levi:
ton. Her mother died in kendric
four years ago.

Flu Still Continues

There are quite a number Of in
fiuenza cases in Kendrick at this
time, number of new ones having
developed since last week. Fortun-
ately, however, none appear to he
serious at all. Among the business
men Mr.. Lutz and Mr.. Joday Long
are the only ones to date who have
had to desist from their labors until
they had had their chiIs and re-
mained in bed the required length
of time.
1t seems that most of those who
have contracted the disease failed to
nave It last year. The writer is one
Of those who was passed up last
year and it is needless to say that
he is knocking wood at every op-
portunity, crossing his fingers every
time he passes white horse and
making a detour of the block every
time rabbit starts across the road
ahead of him, which causes consld-
cradle pedestrying in this bunny
infested town.
Fortunately the people of the
community are taking the situation
calmly and are taking care of them
selves as soon as they contract the
disease. Both doctors are going
day and night to handle their many
patients in town and surrounding
country.

The Flu Patient

At the last meeting of the Amer
ican Public Health Association men
from all parts of the country were
present to deal with the "fu' prob
lem in a scientific way. The II
know it all spirit" was not present,
for all were anxious to learn. It
was generally conceded that the
epidemic was the result of disease
of extreme communicability; fur
thermore, that 1t was not possible
to tell when person having the
disease ceased to be capable of
transmitting it to others.
Our greatest concern at the
present moment is closing the door
of communication, but for those
who have been unfortunate enough
to contract the disease the feeding
of the patient is of common inter-
est. The patients usually can be
classed as follows:
L. Fever patients require-Liquid
diet.
2. Normal temperature patients
require-Soft diet.
3. Convalescent patients require
Light diet.
Miss Katherine Jensen, Professor
of Home Economics, suggests the
following foods as typical for each
class:
Liquid Diet-teed 3 hours from
5 a. m. to ii p. m. Milk (hot or
cold), cocoa, milk, chicken broth,
egg nog, gruels, beef broth, lemon
ade. egg lemonade.
Soft Diet 3 meals daylight
lunch forenoon and afternoon.
Cereals (well cooked), toast, butter,
milk, eggs soft cooked, poached,
custards), cream soups. rice, baked
potato, cornstarch pudding, baked
apple.
Light Diet Cereals (well cook
ed), toast, bread, cocoa, tea, coffee,
soups, eggs, potato, rice, squash,
roast chicken, fresh or stewed
fruits, puddings (tapioca, rice,
bread).
|: For the. fever patient it is neces-
sary to give easily digested food in
small quantities that there may be
no disturbance of digestive or abb
sorbtive functions. One cup of any
one of the foods named IN the LIQUID
diet list is sufficient for one feed
} ing. There is a great tendency also
, of overteeding the patient who has
been placed on soft diet list tenn
perature normaD.
4 Typical menu for patient on soft
A diet:
: $50 a. m.-Cream of wheat, cup;
( top milk, 1-3 cup; toast l slice; but
ter pat; milk cocoa 7 cup.
9:45 a. m.-Cream tomato soup, I
cup; crackers 2; toast, one slice; soft
cooked egg l: Brown Betty, cup;
tea, Z cup.

RESTRICTIONS ON
SALE Of MEDICINE

In tho future whenever druggist
sell medicine or Z preparatihn for the
treatment Of diseases having the.
origin in social impurity. the name and
address Of the purshaser are to be sent
10 the Bureau OF Hygiene of the state
Board Of Health and kept on file there.
This is one of the outstanding PROV
sions of "a bill passed by the general
assembly just before the close of the
session last week. The bill makes
statute law Of rules and regulations
Of the State Board OF Health framed
in 1913 for cases OF this character:

the terms Of the new act physicians
are not required 20 report 10 the Blu
reau OF Social Hygiene the name

In speaking Of these provisions. DR..
W, 4. Brum1cld, director Of the bu-
reau, said that these provisions OF
the act would cause those suffering
from diseases Of social impurity to

tend To discourage useless self-treat@
ment with patent medicines. This
IS a reform which the State Board
of Health has long desired.
Other important provisions of the
new statute are those requiring ply
sicans, druggists and local health
officers to report ali cases of social
diseases to the State Health Board
direct instead of local authorities and
empowering health officers to move
diseased persons from one part of
the state To another for quarantine
purpose. Local health officers may
be active in having ordinances passed
in their communities requiring re-
ports TO be sent to them as we'll as
To the State Health Board.
Letters are now being sent out by
druggists and health officers with the
rovisions of the new act.
