° , THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 6, 1930 -MANDAN NEWS : FATHER REPORTS KEITH MCLELLAND DEFINITELY BETTER Boy Sleeps Soundly; Clinical Examination Shows De- crease in Germ Count , Keith McClelland, 7, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. F. McClelland has taken a definite turn for the better, Mr. Mc- Clelland said this morning. ‘The boy's life was despaired of sev- eral times during the nine weeks he has spent in the Deaconess hospital but an examination this morning showed definite improvement. The boy has been suffering from a malig- nant form of spinal meningitis. The boy slept soundly all of Tues- | day night. It was the fourth straight night in which he had been able to rest well. A blood test this morning showed that the number of white cells and the number of red cells was turning toward normal while the spinal fluid contained more sugar than recently has been the case. It was explained that the disease germs feed on the sugar in the spinal fluid and the increase in the sugar content , is one sign of improvement. Another and more definite sign was the fact that the disease cell count in the spinal fluid numbered only 10 this morning as compared to a maxi- mum of 20,000 at one time during the disease, Mr. McClelland said. The many friends of the McClel- Jands in Mandan, Bismarck and sur- rounding territory have watched the progress of the case with a great deal of interest. Expressions of joy were numerous as the word spread today that Keith had shown definite im-| provement. Cow-Test Records To Be Here Soon Final data on the butterfat produc- tion records made by eight heifers at the Great Plains Dairy Experiment station will be available in the near future, Superintendent A. L. Watt, said today. The records were kept at the sta- tion for the period ending July 31, and have been sent to the Holstein- Friesian headquarters at Delavan, Wis., where they are being checked. The records will be determined and certified by the experts there, Watt said. The cows were milked three times daily and from the data compiled by him he is certain that they will make a “comparatively good showing,” Watt said. Furnace Explosion Causes Fire Alarm Mandan had a@ furnace explosion Tuesday night. Charles Larson, attendant at the Standard Oil station near the Con- nolly garage, was burning some rub- bish, including oil-soaked rags, in the small furnace. The rags gave off a huge volume of smoke but no flame until an explosion ignited them. A passerby, seeing the smoke, called the, fire department but its services were not needed. No dam- age was done. Sheriff Searching For Missing Youth Sheriff Henry Handtmann and his deputies today were looking for Wil- liam Henry, 14-year-old New Salem boy, who is reported to be missing from his home. The youth, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Henry of New Salem, left home Monday and had not returned home today. Members of the sheriff's force said they believed the boy had just gone away on a sight-seeing trip and would return home soon. Police here and in neighboring cities have been asked to keep a lookout for him. He was wearing new overalls and a white shirt when he left home. New Dairy Station Land Being Fenced The work of fencing in the section of land, purchased by the state for the Great Plains Dairy Experiment Station, is nearing completion. Be- cause the ground is dry and hard, difficulty has been experienced in digging post-holes, Superintendent A. L. Watt said today. Part of the tract has been planted to alfalfa. Later, Watt said, the section will be subdivided by additional fences. Seeking Owner of Abandoned Machine Police Chief Charles Reynolds and his force today were looking for the owner of an automobile found parked yesterday near the Golden West Laundry building. The machine, a Willys-Knight with , @ so-called California top, had neith- er lights nor license plates when the atténtion of the police was called 10 it. Lyman’s Automobile Found in Wyoming Police today were awaiting the re- Hold Grips of Pair To Insure Payment Mandan today had something new in the way of entertainment. It was a “dog-house party’ the fashion for which was set Tuesday afternoon in the back yard of the A. W. Furness home. Mrs, Furness planned a small en- tertainment for two small cousins of Mr. Furness, Marian and Jane Acker of Ogdensburg, N. Y., who are visit- ing here. The invitation included the chil- dren in the immediate neighborhood, but the party did its own advertising and some 35 were therein at the finish. The party took its name from the fact that the central attraction was the huge dog-house in the Furness back yard. It was turned into a playhouse and also was used to stage a “show.” The Furness’ have no dog so it was unnecessary to dispossesses a canine occupant. At last accounts the children were making elaborate plans to “petition off” the dog house so as to better meet their needs. City Commission to Act on Money Bill The city commission tonight will take final action on the appropriation ordance allocating the city’s income to various departments for the com- ing year. ‘ The ordinance was to have been taken up at the meeting a week ago but consideration of paving repair petitions took up so much time that the city fathers were unable to get to the money bill. 3 It was expected that the usual monthly bills would be audited and ordered paid. | Sterling | By FERN R.

(Continuea from page one) out a crew of men to change the or fices in gas burning appliances al- | ready in place. Since natural gas 1 richer in heat content than artific.2! gas, the openings in the gas barne: will be changed to admit less gas and more air Bismarck has been designated as the head office of the company for this area and superintendents and supervisors will he located here. The company expects to employ about 25 men in the Bismarck divi- sion as officd force, maintenance and operating crew. The number em- Ployed in building the line is far greater than that. Petter Is Salesmanager R. W. Petter, formerly of Miles City, Mont., has been appointed sup- erintendent in eharge of the dis- tribution of gas and the installation of gas-burning appliances. When Mr. Petter left Méles City, 94 per cent of the homes there were using gas for heating and cooking. Gas service has been available in Miles City for only three years, Tremble said. John W. Lewis has been named salesmanager for the division. He formerly was in the Black Hills di- vision and when he left there 8 per cent of the homes to which gas was available were using it, Trimble said. Trimble said the company is work- ing hard to.get the experienced men necessary to do the piping as it ex- pects to be swamped with orders after the gas comes in. This was the casc in the Black Hills, he said. ee Se es FREE EYE CLINICS TOBE GIVEN SCHOOLS State Optometrists Lay Plan; Elect Elliott Head; To Meet With South Dakota Body A statewide free eye clinic for; North Dakota school children will be; sult of action taken at the annual convention here of the State Optome- tric association. Under the plan adopted, examina- tion of school children’s eyes would be made without charge by optome- trists in their offices during the month set for this work. Dr. Charles P. Elliott, Valley City, was elected president of the associa- tion Tuesday afternoon, while Dr. W. H. Monahan, Willigton, was named first vice president; Dr. William Henning, Fargo, second vice presi- dent; Dr. J. H. Wagner, Bismarck, secretary, and Dr. Andrew Lee, Car- rington, treasurer. The ‘North Dakota group accepted the invitation of the South -Dakota association of optometrists to hold a joint convention of the two state bodies at Aberdeen next April. Under the free-clinic plan children without the means to secure needed attention would be aided by the as- sociation. “The time has come when we, as a profession,” Dr. A. S. Anderson, Fes- senden, retiring secretary of the as- sociation, told the optometrists, “must measure up in public responsibility with other professions and show our willingness to do something in wel- fare work. There is no better way to show our public spiritedness than through optometic service to the needy poor. “We must go further than that. We must prove beyond a doubt with ‘works, not words’ that optometry is the profession dedicated to the con- servation of human vision and that these school children should be taken first to optometrists for eye care. “There is no question in my mind that work in the free clinic field by optometrists, sincerely carried on, will eventually recelve municipal sup- port and perhaps, attract attention, as have other meritorious activities, of men of means who would make donations through ¢ivic interest in eye welfare.” BISMARCK GRAIN (Furnished by Russell-Miller Co.)
