STATE HEALTH OFFICER
ADVISES ON INFLUENZA
Austin.—Influenza, while not
of such prevalence as last year,
is still occurring frequently
enough to cause alarm, according
to Dr. Geo. AY. Cox, state health
officer. *
I11 its present form, its symp-
toms may range from a common
cold to high fever, backache and
prostration. However, pneumonia
as a complication represents the
real hazard. And, as is well
known, pneumonia is an exceed-
ingly dangerous foe. The remedy
is bed on first appearance of a
cold, and remaining there until
advised by the physician that one
can safely get out of it.
Everyone should realize that in
its miklest form influenza can
easily become a very serious
matter. Of course, prevention is
better than cure. While influ-
enza seems to be no respeetor of
persons, »the careful observance
of a few common sense rules will
materially strengthen one’s re-
sistance to an attack. Some of
these rules.
Insofar as possible, avoid inti-
mate contact with members of
the family who have colds or in-
fluenza.
Keep the feet dry.
Wash the hands thoroughly
before meals.
And if you do develop influ-
enza, see your doctor at once.
Bobbie Williams, who is a stu-
dent at the University of Texas,
spent last week-end here with his
parents, Air. and Airs. Robert
Williams.
