Influenza, in a mild form, but plenty bad enough at that, seems to be cpl demic throughout this interior sec Iion. Trave.ers coming over the trail from Nenana report many cases, each roadhouse having one or more cases. Robert Jones, at East Fork road house, is reported as having been very sck. At the ig River roadhouse Dick Rhodes, the proprietor, and Dan Cal iahan were both quite sick.
 Among those reported afflicted at McGrath. were Charles O'Halloran, MT. and Mrs. N. G. Hanson, Victor Nystrom, Bob Hart, T. A. Mcclure, MT. and Mrs. J.. H. Peterson, Dick McArthur, Charles Konig and family, Frank Larson and number of others, including several school chil- dren, necessitating the closing of the school.
 Locally there are many victims, among them being Mrs. Joe Oates, who has been quite ill for number of days, Chris Nelson, Robert Lowrie, MT. and Mrs. Fred Dubois, Gus Gull likson, Mrs. w. H. Jones, Freda Whadkins, Clara Taulman, Hank Wal lick, Arthur Lheureux, Mrs., Charles Nicolet, Miss Emma Owens, John Krieger, Bessie Boyd, Anna. Wilson, William Behan, Tom Shallow.
