Southern California. Many patients have
been treated. and the first results have
been as successful as those attained by
DIR. Friedman. at the clinics in this
city.
The California physicians believed that
they were working with the Friedman

DIR. Austin B. Held. of Pittsburg. Be-
cause Of DR.. Friedmann's statement that
his serum had not been distributed in
this country, the Los Angeles Examiner

DR.. Friedman went to DR.. Pierkowski

the cultures. and later DR.. Friedman

DR.. Friedman today treated ten new

INDIANA WOMAN
WILL HEAD W. R. c.
Mrs. Ida S. Mcbride, of Indian
apoIiS Elected National Pres
ident-WeIl Known Here.

CHATTANOOGA. Tenn, Sept. 90
The election here of Mrs. Ida S. Nc
Bride, of Indianapolis, TO the presi-
dency of the National WOmaR,s Re
lief corps brought great rejoicing to
all the Indiana organizations in Chat
tanooga. 1t had been predicted that
Mrs. Mcbride would easily win, even
though three other states and the
District of Columbia had candidates.
Illinois presented the name of Mrs.
Carrie Alexander; Wisconsin offered
Mrs. Belle Bliss; Ohio had Mrs. Lois
Knauff, and the District of Columbia
favored Mrs. Isabel Ball.
Nominated by Mrs. Mary Sims.
From the moment Of the presenta-
ton of the name of Mrs. Mcbride by
Mrs. Mary Sims. of Frankfort, the re-
suit was never in doubt. One by one
the other candidates withdrew until
Mrs Mcbride stood alone. With an
enthusiastic outburst of applause, the
Indianapolis woman was elected by
reclamation, an honor that has fallen
10 only one other woman, she, too,
of Indianapolis, Mrs. Agnes Hit. 1t
is an interesting coincidence that Mrs.
Sims nominated Mrs. Mcbride and
Mrs. Hit, thus gaining a reputation
for sponsoring winners.
Mrs. Hit, too was the director of
Mrs. NcBride's campaign. The Indi-
ana delegation OF the woman Re-
lief corps must have had early infor-
nation regarding Mrs. Mcbride, for
when her election had been so happily
brought about, Mrs. Cora G. Scott, of
indianapolis, president of the Wom-
ans Relief corps, of George ii. Thorn
as Post, of which the new national
president is member, marched down
from the gallery with her arms filled
with American Beauty roses.
Makes Speech OF Thanks.
These she presented to Mrs. Nc
Bride amid the plaudits of the con-
vention. Mrs. Mcbride made a happy
little speech. expressing her thanks TO
both the convention and TO her sisters
from back home. The election OF
Mrs. Mcbride delighted every Hoosier
here. 1t is said that Mrs. Sarah White
Of Rockville probably will be honored
with appointment as Mrs. Mcbride
secretary.
The other officers elected by the
Woman's Relief corps were Mrs. Chloe
A. Warren, of Plainville, Conn. senior
vice president; Mrs. Mahalia a. Archer
of Chattanooga, Junior vice president;
Mrs. Abbie Lynch. of Pittsburgh,
treasurer. and Mrs. Sarah j. Bradford,
of Livingston Mont, chaplain.
Mrs. Mcbride and her manager,
Mrs Hit. are we'll known in South
Bend. Both women attended the
state convention of the w. r. c., held
here a year ago. 1
