Moving Picture Shows
and Public Meetings to Remain Closed
After consulting the individual members of the Board of
Health of the city and county of Wilson as to the advisability of raising the
bar on moving picture shows and other public meetings, the consensus of opinion
is that they remain closed until Monday, Dec. 30, on which date they may be
allowed to open if conditions continue to improve.
While the number of new cases of influenza is small, yet
there are quite a number of old cases and convalescent cases, which if allowed
to attend public meetings, might again spread the disease.
The Board wants to act fair to all and to the best interests
of the whole community, therefore they ask hearty co-operation of every one in
carrying out the preventive measures now in force.
The following new cases of influenza have been reported to
the Health Department yesterday and today:
H.D. Bateman, 2 cases, Gray Street
Mrs. L.K. Edwards, 2 cases, Stantonsburg
Mrs. J.B. Wheeler, 2 cases, Stantonsburg
Oscar Ellis colored, 1 case, Wilson Route No. 6
Mr. B.P. Langley, 2 cases, Wilson Route No. 4.
W.R. Owens, 2 cases, Stantonsburg
Will Cromadie, colored, 1 case, 630 Elbly Street.
--L.J. Smith, Health
Officer
