TOW “FLU” ’ EPIDEMIC STILL WITH US

There have been perhaps more eases of influenza in Rensselaer and vicinity during the past two weeks than there has been at any timej although they are generally less serious than at the beginning of the epidemic a few months ago. At the telephone office both regular linemen and the extra lineman have been down with the disease all week, and three of the operators were off’ duty yesterday frpm the same cause.
