FACES HOUSING PROPOSITION IN PARIS NOW (By Associated Press) Probably the biggest problem that the Young Men's Christian Associa- tion has to face in the city of Paris is the housing of soldiers who flock to Paris in thousands for 24 to 48 hours' leave. Every American boy who comes to France is eager to see the city of Paris, and the prices of accommodation at the French hotels is beyond the possibilities of their- slender purses. The Y. M. C. A. has several hotels where they can go and for one franc a night can get a bed and a shower. Meals are served at cost. LOST-Let the Daily find that lost article.

Victor C. Vaughan of the medical department of the University stated in an address given yesterday afternoon in the Natural Science audi- torium. "We are going to have re- crudescence after recrudescence of influenza for at least two years. We shall have typhus here, as well as a number of other diseases." Waves of Infection Expected "Waves of infection have followed other great world wars of history. From their, conquests the Greeks brought malaria home with them. Aft- er the Franco-Prussian war Germany had more than 100,000 cases of small- pox. In our own Spanish-American war, the epidemics in camp were fol- lowed, as the men were demobiliz- ed, by scattered outbursts over the country." "Today many of our men are coin- ing home infested with lice, and we shall have typhus and relapsing fev- er here. Trench fever is already wide- spread in Great Britain. Our greatest danger, however, will come in the spread of venereal disease." Colonel Vaughan, who is also the dean of the Medical school, has had charge of the bureau of communica- ble diseases in the office of the sur- geon general. Aside from venereal infection, the greatest danger in this present war, he stated, has been from the acute respiratory diseases. This was anticipated, for it was pneumonia that had given General Gorgas the greatest trouble at Panama. Scientifie Film Shown "The recent influenza crept into this country through Boston," he said. "It was expected in America, and from last August on, every pre- caution was taken at the seacoast. But at last it appeared in the training ships in Boston harbor, whence it spread to Camp Devens, and then quickly over the country. In camps influenza ran like wildfire, but it mov- ed more slowly through the civil pop- ulation. For this reason repeated epi- demics are expected." U-NOTICES Prof. A. E.

Health of Army Excellent Says Gorgas Washington, Dec. 6.-The health of the American army, both at home and overseas, has been excellent, and the mortality rate- from disease probably lower than in any similar body of troops in the history of warfare, Sur- geon-General C.
