Give us a trial. Strain's Studio Bulletin State Board of Health. About October 15, 1921, a man arrived in Garnett, Anderson county, from Kansas City, to work with a road gang whose camp was immediately outside of Garnett. He was in the early stage of black smallpox, and, two or three days later, reported sick. The disease was promptly recognized.

the man isolated, and all of the other men in the' gang vaccinated. The problem then arose as to who was to at tend this man. Working with the gang was a man named who professed to have no fear whatever of smallpox, and to whom the task of nursing a sick man appeared easier than building roads. He therefore of fered his services to the county health officer, and it was agreed that he should act as nurse for this man, and keep himself rigidly isolated from the outside world. While the nursing apparently suit ed 's taste, the solitude and isolation certainly did not.

and he frequently took the liberty of going to town for one reason or another. Being warned by his companions that he was' breaking the law, and fearing that he should be put under arrest, he boarded a train one night and disap peared. Nothing was heard of him until two weeks later, when he appeared in Iola. Allen county, and reported sick. His sickness proved to be smallpox, and this was promptly recognized.

A vacant house was procured and the man confined there. In the meantime, the man at Garnett died, but more fortuante than his former patient, af ten ten days or so of fairly severe ill ness, felt practically as well as ever so well, fact, that he decided to leave Iola and get married. The wedding trip included a visit to Thayer, Neosho county, and this place he called on three families. This was- about November 18th. During the first week of December, smallpox broke out in these families, and at time of writing, fourteen cases of smallpox have occurred, all of which can be directly or indirectly traced to During the first week of December also the bride became ill, and later on.

her sister and mother-in-law (Mi's. It does not seem to have occurred to however, that all these cases could have had anything to do with his sickness, and, while his wife was sick, and later on his mother, he kept constantly leaving the house where they were' confined and associating with well people. From the fact that his operations involved three counties, the association of this man with all these cases was not at first noticed, but when it became apparent he was immediately placed under arrest, and is nowawait-ing his trial. From this man's ignorance and criminal carelessness have apparently arisen at least fourteen cases of smallpox and four deaths one of them his own mother. The mayor of Thayer, writing to the State Board of Health, stated that some of the cases there were so horribly disfigured by the disease that they "did not look like human beings." This history is given not only for its interest, but to emphasize the fact that people of the type of are to be found everywhere.

In fact, at times, we are completely at their mercy, and the only way to be perfectly safe is to be vaccinated. Obituary: Mrs. Hewlett. Last week's Kincaid Dispatch. Merle Henry Hewlett, wife of Harold Robert Hewlett, was born at Bedford, August 27, 1899, and died at St.
