Judging from the countless prepara- tions and treatment which arc contin- ually being advertised for the purpose of making thin people f1eshy, develop ing arms, neck and bust, and replacing ugly hoilows and angles by the soft curved lines of health and beauty. there are evidently thousands cf men and women who keenly feel, their ex- cessive thinness.

Epidemic of Measles Follows Influenza

Following close on the heels of the influenza epidemic that has held Nor wich in it's grip for the past three weeks comes new menace to the health of the city in the form of an epidemic of measles. Well over one hundred cases have been reported within the past few days and the epi- derdic bids fair to spread to all sec tions of the town. The center of the infection is apparently iii the vicinity of Boswell avenue as the majority of eases have been reported from this locality. Taftvifle has been suffer- ing from the epidemic for nearly two weeks and is still reporting new eases to the health department.
 While measles are regarded as a simple disease and never a cause for much anxiety it is well to note that in 1919 there were more deaths among children in the state from this cause than from scarlet fever. People should take care in these cases and take every preeautioh against the spread of the disease. The city health department have had placards print ed which will be placed on houses where there are any cases. Dr. Bropiy

The range of his sympathies is very Broad and he is deeply interested in all movements that are concerned with the welfare of the community.

 In regard to the influenza epidemic pr.

Deaths from the genuine influenza have been few, but there have been several deaths from pneumonia with in the past week.
 Thre are also many cases Of old fashioned grip in town as well as d marked increase in the number. of cases of humps. The spread of humps has been rapid and there are many cases reported in the western section of the city. The big increase in the number of communicabl dis eases in the town and city is due largely to the unsettled and change able weather conditions of the past few weeks. The weather has had a great deal to do with the spread of grip and humps.
