More Than Four Thousand
Persons Treated In Dis

Counties.

Richmond, Va, oct. 3d.
Virginia has recently passed
through an epoch in its public
health work and health officers
are rubbing their eyes to CON
vince themselves that the re.
port of Assistant Commissioner
Allen w. Freeman can be true
when he stated that in four
mountain counties of Virginia.
two hookworm inspectors ex
amined more than twelve thous-
and persons for hookworm
disease and treated more than
four thousand who were found
to be infected.
These startling figures, how
ever, are borne out in the OIL
cial quarterly report of Dr..
Freeman, which covers the op-
GRAFTON of hookwoorm dispen-
saries in the counties of Bed
ford, Franklin, Henry and Pat
rick during 1 n e past three
months. Carefully checking
up every patients record, Or.
Freeman finds that the States

gle inspector i'll the South.
! The percentage of infection
disclosed by these examinations
is also arousing much interest
in public health circles. While
the State Board OF Health has
never encouraged the view
there has been a belief that
Virginia did not face as serious
a problem in dealing with the
hookworm as did some OF the
other Southern States. cit is
quite true said DR.. Fireman
yesterday, when asked for in
formation on this point, that
we are not as heavily infected
as North Carolina and certain
sections of the far south, yet

Laid at Rest.

The funeral services over the re-
mains of Mrs. John G. Hatch at the
Congregational church last Thursday
afternoon were largely attended, and
Rev. J. o. Fisher delivered a very
impressive sermon in which he paid
high tribute to the worth of the
good old lady whose spirit had been
called into the presence of God.
The hymns which Mrs. Hatch loved
in life were sung by the Congrega-
tional choir and the floral offerings
were many and beautiful. The inter-
ment was at Oak Knoll, where all
that was mortal of this good woman
was laid beside the remains Of her
husband. Many people from dis
lance were present at the obsequies
and her only brother, Edward Hill
ton of Minneapolis, was among
them.

Large Quantities Being Marketed.

Growers have taken advantage of
the favorable weather to market
large quantities of potatoes during
the past week and, besides, hundreds
of men in this section are busily en-
gagged in digging tubers. Since the
last issue of the Union prices for
table stock have ranged from % to
IS cents per bushel and for Triumphs
from IS to 80 cents.
Shipments have been heavier this
week than last as more foreign cars
have been available. Something like
90 cars have left this point within
the past seven days. From the pres
ent outlook it is likely that greater
shortage of cars will prevail this sea-
son than last, as there is an extraor-
dinarily heavy demand for the ship
ment of wheat from the great north
west.

NOW FOR FOOTBALL
High School Team Is Organized and
Boys Are Engaged In Strenu-
Gus Daily Practice.
w. c. D0ane and Joe Porter Have
Consented to Coach the Local
TOuSIeheadS This Year.

The high school boys have organ
lied football team which promises
to compare favorably with and, may
be, surpass, any team that has ever
represented Princeton on the grid
iron. 1t is true that the material is
a trif1e light and, so far, inexperi-
enced, but, under the joint coaching
of W. G. Doane and Joe Porter, two
experienced instructors who have
kindly consented to put the boys
through a scientific course, the ex-
pectations are that ere the season is
half over the high school eleven will
be in the front rank. Every after
noon when the weather is propitious
the boys engage in strenuous practice
and they have demonstrated that
they are apt pupils.
The first game of the season will be
played at the fair grounds next Sat-
urday afternoon between the high
school team and an all-star eleven
composed Of members of the alumni,
second-team boys and a few outsid-
ers. This contest is intended more
as a practice game, but doubtless
many spectators will be there to pass
opinion upon the new aggregation.
On Saturday, October II, the Prince
ton high school team will try issues
with the Milaca high school club up
on the gridiron of the latter. This
will in actuality be the starting
game of the season.

Wayne, Son of r1r. and nrs Seth C..
Galley, Accidentally Shot and
Killed by Companion.
Boys, Both Is Years of Age, Were
Hunting When Gun Was by
Some Means Discharged.

The sad ending of young life
came about on Sunday afternoon
when Wayne Galley, 13 years of age,
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Seth G. Galley of
Bogus Brook, was accidentally shot
and instantly killed by companion,
Clifford Reiber, who was about the
same age as the victim.
lt~appears that three boys, Wayne
Galley, Clifford Reiber and Raw Hall
strom were out in the woods hunting
and that at the time of the accident
were sitting on log, the Galley boy
holding a loaded, hammeriess shot,
gun. Reiber, reaching for the gun.
remarked, LETS go and kill some
game,' to which Galley replied.
look out, she isn't fixed safe.''
This was no sooner said than the gun
was in some manner discharged, it's
contents entering Caley's right eve
and coming out at the back of the
head, killing him instantly.
Realizing what he had done, Reiber
became frantic with grief and was
lnconsolable. He refused to leave
the body of his unfortunate compan-
ion and remained with him until
Hallstrom had returned with assis-
lance, when it was found that Caley
was cold in death.
Funeral services were held yester-
day afternoon at the Norwegian
Lutheran church in the town of
Bogus Brook and the interment was
in the cemetery at that place.
Wayne Galley is survived by faith
er, mother and one brother, to whom
the sympathy of the community goes
out in the hour of their sorrow.
The death of the Galley boy is only
one in hundreds which occur every
year from similar causes, and it is a
pity indeed that life is taken in such
manner. But SO long as boys of such
tender years are permitted to handle
firearms nothing else can be ex-
pected. There is law which pro
hibits boys under IA years of age
from carrying or USING firearms I'M
less accompanied by adults, but it is
not enforced-it might just as we'll
not be on the statute books. Four
teen years Of age is, however, too
young to permit boys to carry guns
the age limit should be raised to IS
years, a heavy penalty provided for
violation of the statute, and the law
enforced to the letter.

H. B. Pratt to the Rescue.

II. b. Pratt, who was strolilng
about on the bank of Big Rice lake
recently, was startled by frightful
yell which apparently came from
somewhere near. He rushed toward
the spot from whence the sound
seemed to come and saw, not far
from shore, three men up to their
armpits in water-their boat had
gone down and was gradually sinking
in the soft mud. Luckily there was
a skif near at hand. and into this
Mr.. Pratt jumped and hied himself
to the rescue. AS the skiff was not
large enough for more than two per-
sons he was compelled to make three
trips, but this was not the worst
part of it, for as he nesred the shore
with his third passenger the craft
turned turtle and dumped both of
them upon the Shiny bottom of the
deep. They managed to crawl
ashore, however, but were sights to
behold. Mr.. Pratt tells us that the
three men whose lives he saved were
from Princeton and that the name of
one was Winkelstein or Winkleman
or something of that sort. He did
not learn the others names and they
did not seem anxious to disclose
their Identity. -.a<
