The greater majority of eases are reported as heavy colds or the grip but upon investigation pruvo to be the genuine "Klu" and it ""s seeming inilittcrcnee unit is going to cause u widespread of the epidemic' if more drastic measures are not cm ployed to have eases properly re ported and (iiarentined. Kverv loyal citizen should employ everv means to see that eases are re ported nnd that (he proper precau tion is taken. While it is true that are living in Ihe best climate in the world and conditions here are much betler thiin in most places it does not mean that wc are immune from such an epidemic as Ihe ''Klu" is proving to be. Until such time as there is a marked improvement in Ihe situation there will be no opening of the schools or olhcr places that havo been closed. 2317 II 1741 WASHINGTON. Nov. 11.
