An epidemic of flu or la grippe is
reported in many Nevada towns In
cluding Elko, Fallon Winnemucca and
other centers. Thus far, those who
have been afflicted with the disease,
which is reported in mild form, have
not suffered any grave consequences.
Reports from Califronia state tha,
thousands of cases of flu in mild
form are being cared for by physi-

No case have been reported In

pected that this community will not
prove immune from theepidemic that
