The Weather Tuesday: high 75,
low 42,, hum. 55%.
The cool weather sure came on
quickly. We’ll have plenty more
warm days, but isn’t it odd how
each September the wind
changes directions one day and
summer is just gone, sort of like
Mary Poppins.
Dale McEntire of Green Creek
will be exhibiting his naturalist-
expressionist paintings at the
Tryon Fine Arts Gallery starting
Sunday, Sept. 30 sponsored by the
Tryon Painters and Sculptors
Association.
It is time to get serious about
reserving your space for the
Tryon Hounds Fall Steeplechase,
to be held Saturday, Oct. 13. They
say this is the one to attend, a bit
more intimate and gregarious
than the larger Blockhouse
Steeplechase in the spring. For
reservation information call 859-
9998.
Tickets also are on sale for the
Moon Howl at FENCE to be held
Oct. 4 at 6:30 p.m. There will be
barbecue and bluegrass.
Harrison Ford is appearing at

days. You can’t put it down. Then

It’s Flu Season
Influenza (Or flu) is a viral
infection of the nose, throat,
bronchial tubes, and lungs that
can make someone of any age ill.
In the United States, the flu
season is considered the period
between November and April.
Symptoms of the flu include
fever, chills, cough, soreness and
aching in the back, arms, and
legs.
Flu is not life threatening in
healthy people, but elderly people
and those with health problems
are more likely to be seriously ill
or to die from flu or
complications.
The vaccine will begin to
provide its preventive effect
within two weeks and immunity
may decrease after several
months. It is a common miscon
ception that the vaccine will give
a person a case of the flu, but the
flu is not caused by the shot. Most
people have no side effect from
the vaccine, but some may have
soreness at the injection site or
occasionally have a fever or
achiness for a day or two.
Flu vaccines may be received
a ' * oca l private phyisican’s
offices and clinics. Flu vaccines
will also be available at the Polk
County Health Department for
Polk County citizens age 65 and
older for a nominal fee. These
special flu immunization clinics
will be held at the Polk County
Health Department each Friday
from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.
to4 p.m. beginning September 28
