Holovtchiner Says
It is Contagious
Grip, Not Scarlet
Comes now Tr. E. Holovtchiner, mem-
ber of the Board of Education, with a
statement that most of the cases being
reported to the health department aa
scarlet fever are in fact a form ef con
tagious crip. The doctor said:
"Grip manifests itself In different forms
at different seasons. This season it af
fects the skin. Deduct the real srarlet
fever cases from the total reported and
would say the rest are grip. Scarlet
fever never -affects a child under 6
months of age and rarely an adult over
We have had many cases of adults
and some Infants under months. Acain,
scarlet fever invariably leaves serious
results, which we have not been hearint
of In tha local situation. I am not con
tending that this form of grip Is ' not
dangerous, nor do I believe there is tin'
necessary alarm ever what is believed to
be scarlet fever. Other cities are havlnqr
many cases of thla same form of grip. I
contend that our bacteriologists should
Isolate the germ of this disease and de
termine its relation to grip, which I am
sure will he the case." '
