FLU CENTER

While the flu epidemic, for most
of the other sections of the Island,
is receeding, it is Oh the increase
for Eleele and the surrounding
region. There are some 800 cases
being treated at Eleele, mostly in
the hospitals, regular and emerg
ency, and some of them are very
severe. Most of these cases have
come from Camp 3, at the Wah-
lava Railway Bridge. Additional
medical assistance is badly need
ed as DR.. Waterhouse has very
large and pOpulous territory to
care for School teachers and 9th
ers have rendered their services
and are doing good work.
At KOlOa the disease is develop
ing but slowly, so that it can be
more readily handled.

How They Keep Out Flu

The Hanalei-Wainiha region
has escaped the flu pretty well
thus far, only few imported cases
having developed. Realizing that
under ordinary conditions these
would act as centers of cOntagiOn
which would spread the disease
far and wide, rigid policy of seq
regation and quarantine has been
adopted.
Any house which harbOrs a
doubtful visitor is promptly quar-
antined and any one who enters it
is held there.
A rigid stay-at-hOme policy is
also enforced. Those who want to
go visiting are advised that they
may not be allOwedto return just
when they want to, under present
conditions. These precautions
have kept the disease well in hand.
Fortunately the accounts of
mortality in other districts have
spread wholesome dread of it,
and people are ready to put up
with some inconvenience and hard
ship if by so doing they can avoid
it.

steading, find whatever basis of
Justification there is i'm the tenta.
tive suggestion of Shingle. He ad.
mitted that he was taking his po.
litical life in his hands by doing
so, but nevertheless he would rec
ommend that the highly cultivated
lands. now producing so generous
ly in the hands of plantations,
should be leased to the highest bid
Ter. This would probably bring
in an income of half Il million dol
lars Il year. Seventy per cent of
this, he thought, should be placed
in the Treasury. and thirty per
cent should be allotted to the
homestead commission to assist
Hawaiians and others i'm making
good OH the land. Money to assist
the homesteaders was quite as i'm
portant, he thought. as land, and
unless such money is forthcoming
many of the hOmesteaders would
be fOredOomed to failure.

The Hope Of Better Things

The Advertiser correspondence
from Washington makes interest
ing reading for readers in Hawaii.
Shingle has been on the witness
stand before the committee on ter.
ritories, and has been giving some
information concerning their own
department which seems to sur.
prise them. He informed them of
the fact that Hawaii had put more
than $44, 100000 into the national
treasury since annexation, and
that the cost of running the Is
lands, as far as Uncle Sam was
concerned, was only 100000 a
year.
One of the members of the com.
mittee replied by asking if Hawaii
did not enjoy her fair share of the
Federal appropriations for roads,
wharves. harbors, etc. The Haw.
allan commission assured him that
it did not.
This came as a surprise to the
committee, and there was an i'm
mediate expression of conviction
that this should be remedied, and
that Hawaii should be treated
generously along with other sect
ions of the country.

SOME LOCAL FLU FIGURES

The following approximate fig
ures indicate how serious has
been the flu epidemic Of the last
few weeks on Kauai:
WAIMEA, with some 600 cases
had 22 deaths, or 3.5 per cent,
LlHuE, with 5000 cases (esti.
mated, had SO deaths, or 1.2 per
cent. kEALiA, with 1900 cases,
had is deaths, or about I per
cent.
The Lihue district has an esti.
mated population of 1000, which
gives a mortality for this epidcm-
ic :hus far Of about 5.4 per 1000,
which is just about what the av-
erage total flu mortality was last
season in the United States.
Estimating the population Of
Kauai at $4,000, and the total
number of deaths at 100, the flu
mortality of the last few weeks
is about per 1000, which is real
Iy very small as flu mortaIitiea
go. However, this may be some.
what premature, as we are not
entirely through with It yet.
AS nearly as figures can be OBJ.
tained, there have been 5000
cases or so, all told, which would
indicate that about 20 per cent of
the population has had it. In the
Lihue district about half the pop
uIation has had it.

Kapaa Notes
. NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

l
Indications are that the prevail
ing ailment, the flu, will soon be a
thing of the past so far as this dis
trict is concerned. Few. if any,
new cases are being reported and
the four or five deaths which Oc-
Cured last week were practically
all of persons who had contracted
the disease when the epidemic first
made its appearance.
DR.. Kuhns left for Honolulu on
Saturday for a vacation of about
a months duration to recover from
the effects of the recent attack of
the flu. He was accompanied by
Mrs. Kuhns.
DR.. Patterson is now in full
charge of the Kealia hospital and
will be here until DR.. Kuhns re-
turns.
Among those who succumed to
the flu last week were Mrs. John
Souza victorino, who had been a
resident of Kapaa ever since her
childhood, and IwamOtO, prOmi-
nent rice planter of Wailua.
Miss Agnes Scharsch, well
known as fOrewOman of the Ha-
waiian Canneries Co.. is confined
to her home with a slight attack
of the prevailing ailment.
Miss Alice Winter, sister of Mrs.
A. HOrner, ST., after spending a
couple of weeks visiting Mr.. and
Mrs. A. HOrner, Jr., returned to

Mr.. and Mrs. A. H. Wong mov-
ed into their new home last week.
The new cottage, with its green
paint and white trimmings, is one
of the neatest looking cottages in
this community.
Miss A. BOOge is now the proud

FOOD DRAFT
FOR THE HUNGRY

The American Relief Admins.
tratiOn. i'm cooperation with the
American Bankers Association,
has devised a scheme of food dis.
tributiOn for the Central empires
of Europe that is the most efficient
aid practicable ever put into Oper.
ltion for the relief of the suffer
ing. TIE plan is as simple as an
ordinary bank draft on New York
or London. All that is necessary
is that one has the money and the
willingness to part with it for
such a cause.
For example ''fOOd draft" may
be purchased at the Lihue branch
of the Bank of Hawaii i'm favor of
IA friend, say in Vienna. 1t must
be drawn in one or more denomin-
atiOns designated as "a" ""B," sc"
and I'D" in amounts respectively
of 80 or $50. The friend in Wen.
na takes this to the nearest ware.
house of the A. A. \. and with it
gets definite amount of food in
packets. Here is what these pack.
cts contain; so A, 24R lbs -four,
10 lbs. beans, s lbs. bacon. 8 cans
milk. Sob, 40 lbs. -four, so lbs.
beans, 16 lbs. bacon, Is lbs lard,
II lbs. cOrned beef, 4S cans milk.
24112 lbs -four, 10 lbs beans,
~ lbs. cOttonseed oil. IL cans
milk. S50-D, 40 lbs. -four, so lbs.
beans, 45 lbs. cOttOnseed oil, 4S
cans milk.
The draft designates the person
or representative to whom one or
more of the packages is to be de-
livered, the class, whether A, b,
=, or ID, and the name of the donor
with his or her address. The cost
Of the draft is only nominal, not
to exceed 25 cents. and some
banks, including the Bank of Ha.
waii, Ltd, are even remitting this
item, giving their services.
The following warehouses of the
American Relief Association are
available for these food drafts: At
Vienna for Austria, at Warsaw
for Poland, at Budapest for Hun.
gary, at Prague for CzechO SlOv-
aka and at Hamburg for Germ
any. Further details can be learn
ed on purchasing a draft from
local bank and it is to be hoped
that Kauai people, renowned for
generosity, will avail themselves of
this opportunity for a safe and
effective way in which to prOffer
relief to the needy in far distant
countries.
Food drafts can be drawn for
general relief just as easily as in
favor of a particular friend and
the Food Relief Administration
does the rest.
