The epidemic of influenza has assumed serious proportions In Goderich. and in. eluding those reported last week at least five deaths can be attributed to it. The number of cases seems still to be in- creasing. but with the more stnngent pre- cautionary measures which have been taken at ie hoped that the worst is over. The local board of health met on Mon- day and issued, an order closing all churches. schools. theatres, picture shows. poolrooms and such places. and prohibit- ing all public gatherings until October 25th, inclusive. A week previous to this Mayor Wigle had come to the conclusion that such a step was advisable and tele& phoned to Dr. J. W. McCullough, secre- tary of the Provincial Board of Health, but Dr. McCullough deprecated the idea of "puttingon the lid." At Monday's meeting of the local board of health His Worship remarked that "we had lost a week of valuable time." At the sugges- tion of the Mayor it was decided also that doctors should report all cases daily to the medical officer of health. The fatal cases reported dunng the past week are those of Miss Barbara Aus- tin. Miss Donaldson and Mr. Harry Babb. How to Fight the Influenza. The loliowing bulletin was issued on Wednesday by the board of health: W. As all schools, churches and places of public assembly have been closed on ac - .0 count of the epidemic of influenza, the co-operation if all citizens is earnestly re- f,. quested in order to assist In stamping out ). the epidemic as soon as possible.

I go further. I take the liberty to suggest to you a few means by which you ran help. In the first place I am going to ask you if you would consent to fill the gracious role of Godmother of War to one or more of our soldiers, and by writing or sending money or comfort. replace to etre extent the absence of his family. Such things as biscuits, cocoa. chocolate or any other dry nourishments, tobacco and cigarettes, warm clothes such as socks, vests, scarfs and gloves. would be gratefully accepted by our brave boys. If you would be kind enough to consent to do this, i wtslld immediately put you into com- munication with one or more of our sol- diers who are eager to write and thus find some consolation. As regards leave. 1 have a suggestion to make. In different parts of France and England, there are establishments where our soldiers can lodge during their holi- days and endeavor to amuse them during their few days' rest. Soldiers going on leave do not have any travelling expense., hut they have to pav their hoard and lodging, a sum of 35 frs. (about six dollars) would cover their e1Cpenses for their ten days' leave. Mav i ask you to try to gather funds for this good work which our office s and chaplains are frequently bringing to my notice. The money would assure leave to those who, until now, have been de- prived of it. Perhaps you would be able to collect funds from those who have not time or those who have not sufficient knowledge of French to correspond with our soldiers, bur who would like to give them a token of their sympathy. All will be eternally grateful to their benefactors and at the end of the war their families will remember all that you have done for their boys in the days of cruel separatism.

True Economy in Stylish Shoes THE woman who likes shoes with a long vamp and a slender toe, will be well pleased with the two A. H. M. models shown above. You can obtain smart boots on either last with Louis or Cuban heels in black or tan calf or kid at prices ranging from $6 to $1 2. The quality of the material in these shoes is better than you might expect at the price, due to our being able to cover our needs well in advance. We doubt if it will be possible to offer equal value again so long as the war lasts. The model on the left is conservatively narrow in the toe with the popu- lar Louis heel. The other model is more extreme in style effect having a somewhat narrow toe and a higher and more tapering heel.
