Pneumonia Causes Death
The reports of the committee furth-
er states es follows:
"Death resulting front influenza are
colnmunly due to pneumonia resulting
[runt an invasion of the lungs by one
or more forms of Streptococci ur by
one or more fumes of pneunweucci or
by the so-called influenza bacillus or
bacillin ,,u Pfeffer. This ilrvasion is
apparently secondary to the initial at-
tack,
-Evidences conclusive that the intec-
rive microorganism ur afros of in-
fluenza is given off frum the nose or
utuuth of the infected person. It seems
equally conclusive that it is taken in
through the mouth ur Rose of tate per-
son who contracts the disease and in
nu other way except by way of the con-
junctives or tear ducts.
Ways of Prevention
"Prevention.—lf it be adtnitl.e.d that
influenza is spread sulely through dis-
charges iron the noses and throats
of infected persons finding their way
in
tu the noses and throats 'of other
persons suceptable to the disease nu
matter what the causative organism
or virus may ultimately be determined
to be the preventative action logically
follows the principles named below
and therefore it is not necessary to
wait fur the discovery of the specific
micro-organism or virus before taking
such action:
"1, Break the channels of communi-
cation by which the infective agent
passes from one person to another.
a. "Bender persons exposed to in-
fection immune or at least more re-
sistant by use of vaccines.
'•1. Increase the natural resistance
of persons exposed to the disease by
augmented healthfulness.
"Breaking channels of communication
—(a) By preventing droplet infection.
The eviden,o utfered indicates that
this is of prime importance. (b) By
sputum cuntrul. The evidence offered
indicates that the danger here is due
chiefly to contamination of the hands
and common eating and drinking uten-
sils. (c) By supervision of food and
drink, The evidence otiered does Rot
indicate much danger of infection
through these channels.
Use of Vaccines.
"immunization and Vaccines -1. The
prevention or mitigation of influenza,
per Sec. 92. The prevention or miti-
gation of complications recognized as
due tu the influenza bacillus or to var-
ious strains of streptococci and pneu-
mococci.
"As to the use of vaccines for the
prevention of influenza the committee
reports that the evidence as to tite
success or lack of success of the prac-
tice is contradictory and irreconeili-
able. In view of the fact that causa-
tive organism is unknown there is no
seientine basis for the use of any par-
titular vaccine against the primary
disease. If used any vaccine must be
employed on the chance that it bears
a relation to the unknown organism
causing the disease. The use of vac-
cines for the complicating Infections
rest or more logical grounds.
"The committee suggests that plhy-
sical and nervuus exhaustion should be
avoided by paying due regard to rest
exercise, physical and mental labor
and hours of sleep. The evidence is
conclusive, however, that youth and
bodily vigor do not guarantee immun-
ity from the disease.

SALVATION ARMY IN WAR
ACTIVITIES
But Has Never Made an Appeal
for Help—Operating 197 Huts
and 96 Hostels. While
Many Wax Widows and Or-
phans are Being Cared for.
Among the organizations operat-
ing among the troops, both at home
and abroad, to improve their social
condition and ameliorate the hard-
ships of war, the Salvation Arany
was the first to the field, and it is
the last to snake an appeal for public
donations.
This organization, which operates
in sixty-three countries and speaks
tarty languages, is launching a cam-
paign to raise throughout the Do-
minion one million dollars to carry
on the work among the troops and
to help to get them back into civil
employment. It has adopted the
slogan "First to Aid—Last to Ap-
peal," referring to the fact that the
Salvation Army had its officers and
soldiers in Belgium on the heels of
Lord French's army, that is, on the
18th day of August, 1 91 4, just 18
days after the declaration of war,
and has stayed with the game till
the last without asking the public to
make a special donation for the ex-
penses of the campaign,
The Canadian public, which is to
be asked to give a million dollars for
the Salvation Army's war and recon-
struction work, is entitled to know
what claim the Salvation Army has
for monetary assistance. In the first
place the Army has spent $2,000,-
oq0 in war activities. Here is a sum-
mary of the operation of the Army
directly connected with the war:

In getting the boys back to civil

work to do. It will help many a dis-

\VILD PEOPLE IN AUSTRLIA
P�1
ke The Returning Soidier Welcome
THIS is an important hour for Canada. The
nation is entering on a new era. It is passing
from war to peace. Let us start this new era right.
There are thousands of soldiers returning from over-
seas. The Government is doing all in its power to
get these men back to civil life.
It is giving a [Far Service Gratuity—snore than
any other nation—to keep the soldier going till he
gets a job.
It gives him a pension—where his usefulness is
impaired by his service.
It teaches a man a new trade when his service
unfits hien for his former trade.
It gives him free medical treatment when ill-
ness recurs, and supplies free artificial limbs and
surgical appliances.
It is bringing back to Canada at the public
expense the soldiers' dependents now overseas.
But. the Government, how-
ever willing, cannot provide
the personal touch needed in
this work of repatriation.
That must he given by the
people themselves.
The men who went from
these parts to fight in Fland-
ers deserve. a real welcome
home the best we can give.
In iilost towns committees
of citizens have already been
organized 'lo meet the soldiers
and their dependents at the
station, to provide hot meals,
supply automobiles, afford
temporary accommodation
when necessary.
In addition, many other,
towns are organizing social
gatherings to give public wel-
eoine to returned Men after
they have been home a
few days.
After he has rested, the
soldier must be provided with
an opportunity for employ-
ment.. In towns of 10,000
population, Public • Employ-
ment Offices have been estab-
lished to help soldiers, as well
as war -worker's, Secure good
jobs quickly. Where. these
exist, citizens should co-oper-
ate. Where they do not exist,
the citizens themselves should
help put the soldier in touch
with employment.
* *
The fighting job is done. It
has cost many a heart -burn-
ing. But it has been well
done. The least we can do
is to show our appreciation
in no uncertain manner.
Don't let the welcome die
away with the cheers.
