EPIDEMIC NOW "
UNDERCONTROL
City Health Officer Thinks
Meastes Can be Wiped
Out Soon.
The epidemic of measles is subsid
ing, Dr. W. A. McPhaul, city health
oftic. said Fridav. Ahnut 1R
cases have been reported this week,
as compared with around 300 for last
week. Dr. McPhaul believes . that a
decrease in the number of cases re
ported will continue now.
The epidemic began, last fan, three
or four weeks after a circus showed
in the city. Dr. McPhaul is inclined
to' lay the blame for the epidemic upon
the circus. Prio rto the hnHdav thn
health office was in ' control of tne i
epidemic, but shortly after the first
of the year an alarming increase in
the -daily reperts of cases began cam
ing in.
The peak of the epidemic was reach
ed last week when the 300 cases were
reported. Nearly 1,000 cases were re
portd, to the health department during
three months. ,
Commenting on the disease, Dr. Mc
Phaul said most people are inclined
not to regard measles seriously. Many
parents attempt to have their chil
dren contract the disease. WiiBiHno
that it must come eventually and con
sidering the earlier in life the better.
Measles kills one out , of every four
children . undr. four years of age who
contract it.. It also kills a large, per
centage of old' people. Young boys and
girls, however, are seldom troubled
seriously, the death, rate being about
One out of 100.

nies and nickels and dimes in the savings-securities.

dition to the sayings securities sold last

DOG' HEADS WILL BE
A. TESTED FOR RABIES
Heads of dogs jsuspccted ; of having
fables' will be examined at ; the city
health department laboratories with the
arrival here of E.- M.' Duncan, new city
bacteriologist, according to announce
ment by Dr. .W. A. McPhaul. Local
examination of dogs' heads would elim
inate; a delay of two or three days ne
cessitated by the present plan of send
ing them to Raleigh. This would "mak
possible earlier treatment of persons bit
by dogs and would also lessen the length
of anxiety, and worry by members of
the family1 of one bitten, while awaiting
a. report on an examination.
