Care of General Health an Impor
tant Factor
Now that the Flu is prevalent in
Oregon, and is making Washing
Ion County its second annual vis
itation, health officials are busy
combatting this dread disease.
The following circular issued
by the county health officer, is
sent the Argus with request for
publication:
"The present wave of influenza
in the State of Oregon is passed
at this time, but the disease is
prevalent throughout the state in
a milder form than it was last
year. On the recommendation of
the secretary of State Board of
Health (Dr. D. N. Roberg) the
following is given for your earn
est consideration.
For the next week or two, dis
courage unnecessary communica
tion between Washington County
peojde and the City of Portland,
where the disease is prevalent.
Avoid gathering in crowded
places, which is a ready way of
spreading Influenza (Flu).
If attacked with a severe cold
and fever call your physician.
Washington County has a rec
ord for a low contamination with
the present attack of Influenza,
now sweeping the United States.
Be rinilant and keep up the good
record, following the hints' here
triven.
Dr. L. W. Hyde,
Health Officer, Washington Co.
Here are some excellent point
ers, observance of which will do
much to prevent attack of the in
sidious disease.
Breathe through the nose that
is what it was made for' and
germs will lodge before they get
dow n to your bronchial tubes.
Flush your nasal channels night
and morning with water in which
may be dissolved plain soda.
Get some throat gargle from
your druggist and use it morning
and night.
Keep your bowels open and use
discretion in your diet.
Half the danger of Flu attack
ing you w ill be eliminated if you
follow the advice of Grandma
Good woman, who says, "Keep
your mouth closed and your bow
els open."
