patients TO prevent possibility OF
the further spread of influenza.

So many teachers in Windsor
grade schools are i'll, II has been
found necessary TO replace them
with high school seniors.
That the spread of the illness
is already province-wide was indi-
Gated with the report that it is
even more prevalent in Ottawa,
Toronto and Hamilton than in
Windsor. Authorities agreed, how
ever, that the "flu" is of a milder
type, and that IL has not nearly
reached the proportions Of the
epidemic of 1918, which took
thousands of lives.
Usual precautions have been
issued in Windsor against large
assemblies, together with simple
health measures 10 avoid contract
ing the ailment.
In Detroit, Or. Bruce RI Doug

while the disease had a higher

this type of contagion is not in
