DRUGGIST AVIATOR SAVES THREE LIVES S. ANTONIO, Tex., Feb. 8. —William Ochse, druggist, now uses an airplane for emergency deliveries and already his new method is credited with the sy ing of three lives. Ochse, whose hobby is avia- tion, inaugurated free airplane delivery service because transportation in the sparsely settled region west and south of San Antonio is too slow when a life depends on application of a drug or serum. He bought a small biplane sev- eral months ago and dedicatad it “for the service of mankind.” The first errand of Mr. Ochse and his “mercy ship” was a good will flight to Mexico. The plane car- ried infantile paralysis serum to a stricken boy in Matamoros, across the Rio Grande from Brownsville, Texas, 200 miles from here. Since then the plane has taken septicemia serum to Cuero and a drug to counteract poisoning! from rattlesnake bite to Buck- holtz ,Texas. ATTENTION If you neea a good carpenter phone 438.
