Health Commissioner Manning
Warns Against Having Too
x 1 Many Visitors on
Sabbath, i
"Stay at home and don't have any
risitors."
This is the pleasant way that City
Health Commissioner Manning rec
ommends to Omthans for spending
Sunday.
"It seems," he said, "that since
the churches and amusements are
closed the people are doing so much
visifing that, to a large extent, they
are defeating the very purpose for
which the public places are closed.
"If a dozen people gather in a
private home ther? is just as much
danger of contagion as if a mirfli
larger 'number gather in a public
place. If the guests in your home
are infected with influenza germs
the chances are that you will get
them if you entertain the guests
for even an hour."
Play Victrola.
So the cautious ones will stay at
home, keep' the windows open, read
the religious books or Sunday pa
pers, or play the Victrola. It is
also advised by Dr. Manning to go
out and take long walks in the
apen air.
A little more than 100 new cases
of "flu" were reported to the health
commissioner's office in the 24
hours' ending at 9 o'clock Saturday
morning. The number of deaths
from the Spanish influenza reported
in xthe same period was 26, .beside
two in which pneumonia was given
as the cause of death. The new cases
ire much milder than those of the
:arly days of the epidemic.
The damp weather of Saturday,
says Dr. Manning, is extremely fav
orable' to propagation of the dis
ease. ' A "flu" germ outside of the
human body can only live about IS
minutes in dry, sunshiny weather
But in damp weather its lease on
life is much longer.
May Close Pool Halls.
Dr. Manning has decided to give
the pool halls until Monday morn
ing to show whether they shall be
left open. It has been reported to
Titm that these places are shamefully
crowded. The closing of the mov
ies has shifted large numbers of
young men to the pool halls. The
halls are poorly ventilated, some of
them under ground, and they are
t aid to be hotbeds of propagation
pfjhe "flu."
TDr. Manning's chart shows that
fr the last three days the number
of new cases and the number of
deaths from Spanish influenza have
held about even each day. The
chart shows that the closing order
resulted in bringing down both
cases and deaths to an enormous ex
tent, i
Donald N. Meyers, 16,"
.Will Go Overseas as
Ambulance Driver
0
Donald N. 'Meyers, 16-year-old
son of Mr. and- Mrs. Henry Meyers,
3046 Meredith avenue, will go to
France as an ambulance driver for
the Red Cross. The boy's father is
a member of local exemption
board No. 3, and he declares he is
glad to see his son go across to do
his bit in the war.
Young Meyers has passed his ex
amination and will leave Omaha
soon . for three weeks' training in
Chicago and then will go directly to
Franee.
He was a sophomore in the
Omaha High, school.
Lieut. Robert Connell
of This City Dies in
Paris War Hospital
First Lt. Robert D. Connell, ion
of Dr. R. W. and Mrs. Connell, has
died in France, according to a cable
graitf received by the parents Satur
day morning from Mist Louise
Di: "ng, Omaha woman who is now
serving a nurse in the American
hospital at Neiully. -
Death was caused .by pneumonia,
but the cablegram gives no further
particulars except that Lieutenant
Connell died in a hospital in Paris
and that his friend, Ted Millard,
formerly of Omaha, was with him
when he died.
The young officer was 24 years
old. He took military training at
t'. Fort Omaha balloon school and
left Omaha in November with th
second balloon squadron, and has
been in active service in France
sinc. January.
He is survived by his parents, a
sister, Miss Regina, and two broth
ers, Herbert, who is attending an
officers' training school at Camp
Taylor, Louisville, Ky., and James,
19-year- Id student at Creighton
university.
