from Ibis malady and Ion new cases
were taken to Ihe hospital in the past
two davs. Kverv day reports come
in of eases Ihat had not been previ
ously reported and the report of n
few days ago that there were eighty
one eases seems lo he small compar
ed with the number of cases there
really are.
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.
