Danger
ONLY SEASONABLE
COLDS REPORTED

WASHINGTON. Jan. "a Omitted

DR.. b. s. Warren. in charge OF the

been watching the reports very
closely recently and there has been "a
comparatively small number OF in
fluenza cases OF dangerous char
acter, he said.
AT present. there is virtually no
danger OF recurrence Of an inhu-
enza epidemic, such as swept the
country during the war" Warren
said. But now is the time for
everyone to take all precautions pos
sible against bad colds"
The public health service has re-
ceived reports that influenza is on
the Increase in Great Britain and
this has caused tightening Of re-
strictions imposed on immigrants be-
fore they can enter the country.
other officials believe that the
death OF Pope Benedict, attributed
to a form OF influenza, has had the
effect OF spreading the belief over
the country that the disease is in
creaslng on a wide scale.

FIRECOMPA
AFTER MONEY
Rural Organizations Go Be
fore Levy Court for
Appropriations
COMMISSIONERS
TO INVESTIGATE

Discussion Of the annual appropri-
atoms to the fire companies OF the
county was brought before the Levy
Court this morning by J. V. Camp
bell, chief Of the New Castle Fire
Department. who requested the pay
ment Of the allotment. with any
additional sum that could be allow
ed. He explained that the department
operating under the Good VIII Com
pany has three engines and other
equipment representing an invest
ment OF $4,000. Mr.. Campbell told
of the many rural calls made and
the territory covered by the New Cas-
tie department. He said that he
was not present to make demands,
but would like to have the Com
missioners do what they could.
Several OF the commissioners rep
resenting the rural districts engaged
in an informal debate as to which
of the companies do the most in pro-
tecting the county Mr.. Buckson
was strong for New Castle and Mr..
Mccoy for Middletown. while New
ark also received considerable mem
ton. Whether one company should
receive a larger appropriation than
any OF the others was the question
discussed at length. 1t was pointed
out that set amount. $500 or $3.50,
was annually paid to each OF the
seven rural companies.
Some of the commissioners were
in favor OF increasing the appropri-
ations for the New Castle. Middle
town and Newark companies which
cover larger territories than the
others.
1t was finally decided 10 give the
matter a thorough investigation and
motion to appoint committee for
this purpose was carried.
President Stetser appointed the
five commissioners representing the
rural districts. Messrs. Buckson, Nc
Coy. Strahorn, Ball and Collins.
President Stetser instructed them
20 make their investigation this week
and report at the next meeting.
The Wilmington Fire Department
was mentioned but nothing was done
concerning any appropriation for the
city fire department who also make
rural calls.
