"In the Nov. 8 issue
I Lancet appeared a prediction by
John Brownlee, D. rfcJ, based on
careful study of past inlluenia epi-
demics, that a recurrence of the 1918
Influenza epidemic would occur In
January or February, 1920.
"Dr. Brownlee' found that Influenza
epidemics recurred at intervals of
thirty turee weeks, providing the thir-
ty-third w**ek did not fall between
.lune and December, in which case the
recurrence would b»* expected at the
end of sixty-six weeks dr ninety
weeks, and therefore he regards the
Fall epidemic of 1918 as an exception
to the rule. In the United States we
are now having a recurrence after six-
ty-six weeks Mince the piortality peak
of the 1918 epidemic In Chicago. The
same Is ^true for New York City and

The more reasonable explanation
Mverns to be that the present epidemic
Is due to a definite cyclical regrowth
of the infecting organisms from the
seed of thr former epidemic.
"Definite cycles of development are
common in the known vegetable and
animal world Some plants flower an-
nually, sonu» biennially; the malarial
organism may complete its cycle in
two or more days; the locust requires
in some cases seventeen years.
