The epidemic of flu, whooping cough, and other diseases which is general over the county has not taken toll In Hermiston up to this time, but it is the duty of every in dividual and parent to assist school officials and health officers in keep ing such a condition in our commun ity. If a student has a cold and is feel ing badly, it is better for him to be absent from his classes for a day or two rather than expose himself and his classmates, and prolong his ill ness. We speak of the student be cause it is in the school that these epidemics first become acute, due to the close association In the class- rooms. With the drop in temperature, colds and flu will be more in evi- dence, but with every individual taking extra precaution an epidemic can be prevented.
