Dr. Ramey i5 a member of the school board. lie regarded the influenza situation much improved on the north side, judging by personal observation, but said that absence of public gatherings for time yet will still help materially a in fifihting the disease. Dr. Hugh S.

Dr. Ramey thought that the dampness would tend to make the day and night teniperatiire more even and do away with the higher temperature in the middle of the Some InjMifloiin. A number of physicians in the city were reported to have administered serums or solutions hypodermically during the past or two, as a preventive of influenza, some with marked success as to results, but there were several who had not used injection.s for the reason that none had been proved efficacious by the army medical corps, which has been engaged in much study of influenza over the country-.
