When the flu finit made ita ap-
[ h arance in our town and commun-
ity, causing two deaths, people were
caieful to observe quarantine regu­
lations
As a result our town anti
community became fres of the dis-
eaae. Recently people have become
careless and those who had the dis­
ease or had Iw-en exp«»sed to it re­
fused to stay at their homes. As a
result the flu ia in half a dozen or
more families in Scio and vicinity
and two cases are moa, serious
They may not recover; all of which
is due to the criminal carelessness
of people who would not observe
quarantine rules, Relative to this
matter we clip the following from
exchanges:
“It might be well to remember
that the grippe epidemic which be­
gan in I8N9 continued until IF93
and the mortality from pneumonia
and bronchitis was the highest ever
recorded. The mortality of influ­
ents is very likely to increase even
over the record* which have resulted
during it* *weep of the country du­
ring the last three months.
“Strict quarantine is essential but
not sufficient.
There are people
walking around with slight colds,
wire throats, feeling quite comfort­
able. but who are carrying the in­
fluenza virus. When you breathe,
talk, cough or sneeze, you eliminate
tiny droplets and these droplets are
the germs. If you place a barrier
