Waihlngton, D. a With tho subsld
onco of tbo epidemic of Influenu the
attention of heultn officers la rllrwtml
to pneumonlai Bronchitis' and other
diseases of tbo respiratory system
which regularly raua largo Dumber
of deaths, especially during tho winter
season. According to Itupert Bine,
Burgeon General of tie Called 8tatee
Public Ileal lb Service, these dlaoaaea
will bo especially prevalent this win
ter unless the people art particularly
careful to obey health Instructions.
The present epidemic," said Sur
geon General Blue, "has taught by bit
ter experience bow readily a condition
beginning apparently at a slight cold
nay go on to pneumonia and death.
Although the worst of tbt epidemic la
over, there will continue to be a large
number of scattered cases, many of
them mild and unrecognised, wblcb
will be danger apots to be guarded
against" The Surgeon Oeneral likened
the present situation to that after
treat ftret sajlng. "No Ore cblet tth
Obaersfanrie nTs EualiieW stops plsytng
the hose on the charred debris as soon
as tbt flames and risible fir bavt dis
appeared. On the contrary, he con
tinues tbt water for hours and vea
days, for be knows tbst 'there la dan
ger of tbt Are rekindling from arool
derlng embers."
"Then you fear another outbreak of
Influenzar bo waa asked. "Not neces
sarily another large epidemic," aald
tbt Burgeon Oeneral, "but nnlesa tbo
people learn to realist tbt sertousneaa
of the danger they will be compelled to
pay a beavy death toll from pneumo
nia and other respiratory diseases.
. Common Colda Highly Catching. t
"It la encouraging to observe thai
people art beginning to loam that or
dinary roughs and colda art highly
catching and art aproad from poraoa
to person by tneana of droplets of
germ ladeo mucus. Such droplet art
aprayed Into tbo air when careless or
Ignorant people cough or sneeze with
out coveting their mouth and nose.' It
la also good to know that people bare
learned aometblng about 'the value of
fresh air. In aummer, when people
art largely out of doors, the respira
tory dlseaaea (coughs, colds, pueumo
Dla, etc.) art Infrequent; In tho fall,
as people begin to remain Indoors, the
respiratory diseases Increase; In tbt
winter, when people art prone to stay
In badly ventilated, overheated rooms,
the respiratory diseases become vary
prevalent
Suitable Clothing Important
"Still another factor In the produc
tion of colda, pneumonia and other re
spiratory diseases Is carelessness or Ig
norance of tbe people regarding suit
able clothing during the seasons when
tbt weather suddenly changes, sitting
In warm rooms too heavily dressed or,
what la oven more common, especially
among women, dressing so lightly that
wlodowa are kept closed In order to bo
comfortably warm. Tbla la a very In
jurious practlca.
Could Save 100,000 Lives.
. "I believe we could easily save on
hundred thousand Uvea annually In
the United States If all tbe people
would adopt the system of fresh air
living followed, for example, In tuber
culosis sanatoria.' There la nothing
mysterious about It no s peel Be medi
cine, no vaccine. The Important thing
la right living, good food and plenty of
freab air. i
