PEOPLE REMINDED TO RtOEEM
WAR SAVlhUS PLEDGES
People are being reminded that
their War Savings Pledges are sol
emn obligations or "promises to
pay "mao to the Government upon I
the word of the American people,
and that there now remains little
pver two months in which to re-
deem these pledges. In addition to
the fact that aiiy pledge is sacred
and honor requires that it be kept,
a further necessity requiring the
War Savings pledges to be' redeem-
ed is that the Government took tiie
words of its citizens as an oath and
has spent the several million dollars
lepresented by the pledges.
No alarm is felt in North Carolir
na that all outstanding War Savings
pledges will not be redeemed . this
year. In the first place, not to rerj
Hppm these or anv other DlecUe
made in good faith is not in keep-
ing with the spirit and character of

there is mdney enough in North

ings Certificates and Liberty Bonds

All that is felt

You drink ships every time you use sugar unnecessarily, in a

Seventy-five, per cent, of the sugar used in this country has to be

treatment for both influenza and

This conclusion is based upon
the experience of the State of Mass
achusetts, where the disease origin
ated in this country and which
state was hardest hit prior to the
sweep of the epidemic over North
Carolina. The. experience of Mass
achusetts demonstrates that the
death rate from influenza-pneumo
nia treated under est lblished hos
pital conditions, was forty 1 per cent,
whereas cases given the sunshine
and open air treatment showed a
death rate of less than thirteen per
cent. " ; v
The method of the treatment is
, simple, and is iust what is ipdicat-
ed Patients afe cared' for in tents,
in airy wooden shacks constructed
for the purpose, or on porches or in
the yards of hom.es. During the
daylight .hours, which at this season
in North Carolina means at lefast
ten hours each day, the patients
can be taken right out into the
open, being given full exposure to
sunlight and air. Patients whose
temperatures ran from 102 to 104
degrees during the period of treat
ment in indoor hospitals returned to
normal in a few hours after being
removed into the open air. Respira
tion and pulse rate "also showed re
markable improvement.

Dr. W. P; McGuire and myself
were appointed by the County
Board of Health, as a committee to
organize the county for the purpose
of giving aid to those stricken with
influenza.
We would like very much for
the ptople from each township to
report to us the number of cases,
and especially the needy cases, so '
that we may see to it that they get
medicine aid and some one to wait
on them:
The disease is on the decrease in
the State at large but on the in
crease in this county, and there are
numbers of families where they are
all down. In such cases some one
will have to care for tt.em. Any
one who is willing to help care for
those most in need please let us
know at once.
