WILSONELEVENTH VICTUM OF FLU BIRTHS FOR YEAR ’18 ARE 75, DEATHS 57 Notwithstanding the »ad gloom und anxiety we are all passing through from the effects of the most dangeroue of all infectious diseases, influenza, we should be thankful that it is no worse than it is. Please allow me to thank the citizens of Cottage Grove for their prompt re »ponse to our orders for cleaning up the eity. Cleanliness is conducive to good health. And allow mo to thank you all for the u»ble work you have done in your svm pathy and help to those w ho arc mourn ing the loss o f loved ones. In conclusion, we hnve served the ! city as health officer for the past 12 ' years. It has been our purpose to pro- I tect the eity ngainst infectious diseases , to the best o f our ability and I am free to say tlmt no eity in the state has been as free from infectious diseases the past few years as the city of Cottage Grove. We gave the public fair warning through the press, with posters and daily talks of the great danger we were in from the dreaded disease, influenza. Our orders nnd our warnings were to n considerable extent disregarded and, lo, the sail result. I will ask you to only remember what little good I have rendered as city health officer. I have given the most of my time to the work o f the office. Following are the total number of births and denths recorded for the past 1 year in Cottage Grove and vicinity: Mirths, 75.

ROOT IS CLOSE TO THE CENTURY MARK AT TIME OF DEATH Sutherlin Sun: Mrs. Levina McCall Root died at the home o f her daughter, Mrs. Floyd Lawson, in Sutherlin, at 1 o ’colck u. m. on December 20, 1918, aged 96 years, 10 months and 7 days, death being due to natural causes incident to old age. She was born in Sheridan, Ohio, on February 13, 1822, and in 1*40 wras mar ried to Gordon Root, of Ohio. A short time after marriage she accompanied her husband to Minnesota, thence to Washington and later to Cottage Grove, Oregon, where her husband died in 1905. Ijiter she went to Alberta, Canada, where she made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Floyd l^twson, and where she resided six years. She ac companied the Lawson family to Ore gon on their return here several years ago, and has since made her home with the family. The remains will be taken to Cottage Grove for interment beside the body o f her husband. Besides her daughter, she leaves one son, Clayton J. Root, of Rice, Wash. A sad feature in connection with the dunth is that Mrs. Lawson, the daughter with whom Mrs. Root had resided for so many years, is critically ill and does not know of her mother's death, which occurred in a room adjoining the ono Mrs. Lawson occupies. Mrs. Lawson is 77 years old. George Klbhy In Near Accident. George Kibby, son o f Mr. and Mrs. H. H.
