Dr. John L. Mgy when summoned rendered first aid that returned consciousness. She was then taken to the doctor's office where it was found that her scalp was terribly lacerated, so that fourteen stitches were required to close the wound.

There is a sugar run on this store, and nearly all day Tuesday the store was crowded and the sidewalk Llocked by seekers for sugar. The manager announced that a limited supply would be received daily so long as it lasted, a certein amount being apportioned for each of the chain of stores.
