Herring THE HIX COMPANY: Harlo Hix ^ ^ ^ OF GKNKRAL INTKRKST ^ ^ ^ Treatment of Influenza {Reprinted from ^'Bulletin*' of October, 1919) As has been said before, the nursing of a “flu” patient is of more impor tance than medicine. Good nursing is essential in any illness, but is especially in the disease under discussion. After the patient has been put to bed ^n a well lighted and well ventilated ^oom, he should be made as comfortable possible. Place him on a mattress father than a feather bed, as it is more comfortable, and the patient can be han- ^^ed more easily since he is not down a hole as would be the case with a feather bed. Change the linen every other day, and do not allow it to become Crinkled under the patient, especially One who has been sick for some time. The mental state of the patient is yery important. If he is worried or hi« recovery will be postponed. If a patient seems worried, ask him the cause of it, and see if you cannot relieve it. Do not allow members of the family or visitors to congregate in the room to talk. During any serious illness, all visitors should be excluded. Do not allow yourself to show any worry or trouble that the patient can notice.

Never take longer than absolutely necessary to fulfill a patient’s request. Never whisper in or near the sick room of the patient about whom you are speaking. Never discuss a patient’s condition with him or with anyone else in his hearing. As far as possible, avoid telling a patient what medicine he is taking, what his temperature is, or the rate of his pulse, even when it is normal. Never (Continutd on pag* 6) Governor on Race Relations Governor Bickett’s address on “Race Relations,” recently delivered at Tuske- gee Institute, is characterized by His Excellency’s customary sound sense and profound understanding of the problem. One passage in the speech is of such breadth that it applies with truth and force to every section of our country. This we have taken the liberty to place in italics. “I have been asked to speak on race relations. Two things qualify me to speak on the subject. First, a passion ate longing to help both races to a level of mutual sympathy and understanding. Second, my own relations with the negro from boyhood to this hour have been those of mutual sympathy, consideration, and affection. This enables me to speak to you with the utmost kindness, and at the same time with the utmost candor. “The first thought I desire to leave irith you is that, in the South, race
