I hope you have escaped Lhe "flu." it has been very bad here. I left hone Nov, 7111 to help nurse and have been at it: ever since, excepting a few days to rest up, Lill last week. None of etre family had it exact myself and I was from home then. I had it very mild. We organized an emergency hospital and all teachers and others who could leave home turned in and helped nurse. Ofcourse the teachers nearly all took it but we managed to get one bunch up before another fell ill. In all ave had 64 patients besides dozens in theft. houses whom we looked after. I helped in the hospital part of the lime end also nursed iu the country, the last place where a family of 8 were down. This will give you some idelt of hots we handled the situation out hete and I must say with very good results for we scarcely lost a case and there were some very bad cases of pneumonia before wo got them, 1 might say hove that the Department of Education, with one highly esteem- ed Premier, an old Huron boy, (Ron, W. M. Martin) at its head, pasted a regulation that all teachers who gave their set vices for nursing should le - waive their pay from their school boards the same as if teaching, which was I think a very !vise thing, Well now I think I most stop and wish you and yours a very Happy New Year.
