Chesterfield county, outside of incorporated towns, is now under a sectional quarantine?that is in each school district, where influenza is prevalent the trustees can report to Sheriff Douglass and, upon their recommendation, that district will be quarantined by the Sheriff, no public meetings of any kind being allowed. The State Board of Health necessarily has to leave local conditions to the Sheriff and the school trustees. In incorporated towns the matter of a quarantine is up to the local town officials. Dr. Pope says that in communities where the disease is' prevalent the people there must co-operate and nurse 4ach other, as appeals to the outside for help cannot be depended upon. Every community has its own sick to take care of. In Dr. Pope's opinion the hysteria that usually accompanies influenza aggravates the disease 100 per cent. EHIWd WM v y ~ ^ if f iji^iK N? I.LARGE N?

The influenza situation is greatly improved and*while Miss Fields' services could still be used to advantage in. the community, it is recognized that other towns are in far worse shape than Chesterfield has ever been. Mi is Fields has done fine work around Chesterfield. It is no exaggeration to say that she has saved lives here. She has worked day and night, taking very little rest and has risked her life, continually, for influenza is particularly fatal among nurses fend physicians who have become physicially exhausted before contracting the disease. The local Red Cross has incurred a bill" of about two hundred dollars in fighting the influenza epidemic. This account wil be due Saturday night. Those who have been benefitted by Miss Fields' services, and all others who feel so inclined, are requested to pay to Mr. C. C. Douglass, treasurer of the Red Cross, what money they can, not later than Saturday night. This money goes very largely to pay the hotel bills, railroad fare, auto hire and other items of expense, besides the salary of Miss Fiskty during her work here. * F. S. ROYSTER Norfolk, Va.
