FAMILY ESCAPE FIRE

The family of Victor Dennis had q
narrow escape early last Monday
morning when fire was discovered in
the wood box. Mrs. Dennis was
awakened at 1 a. m. by the strong
fumes of smoke AT first she thought
il was from rubbish that had been
bruned during the day and got up to
close the window. She noticed an
intense heat and opening the kitchen
door, discovered the house to be on
fire She promptly closed the door to
prevent draft and awakened the
household
Entrance to the kitchen was effected
by way of the back door and the
flames, which were running up the
side of the kitchen TO the ceiling
were extinguished with further dam
age being done.

The council Thursday night accepted
the petition for the Improvement OF
East Genesee street from River TO Lay

work may be finished this summer.
The petition was circulated by
Frank Singler and was signed by
every property owner on either side Of
the street. 1t is the second petition
for improvements on the district plan
that has been filed with the council
this spring, and the cost will be assess

Gaastra is TO have postofiice.
The announcement was unexpected,
although efforts had been made for
several months to obtain a postoflice
for that location. The first that resi-
dents of Palatka knew postoifice
would be established in Gaastra was
last Monday, when notice was posted
on the door of the postoffice at Cas-
plan, telling the public that a post
master was desired for Gaastra.
Immediately whirl of excitement
swept through Gaastra. Here was an
pportunity for most any one to be-
come real, live postmaster, About
the time there were as many decisions
to try for the postmastership as there
will be patrons of the Office, the ex.
clement subsidized and left only three
applicants in the field-Ablin Olson,
James Brew and Elmer Piper. Mr..
Pipe late withdrew, leaving the field
TO Mr.. Olson and Mr.. Brew.

MOTHERS TOLD HOW TO
TREAT SICK CHILDREN
Recognizing the Nature Of Ailments Of
a Dangerous Character.

Brooklyn, recently. Or. Walter Il.
Ludlum, addressing an audience Of
mothers on "The Care of Sick Babies"
said that babies diseases go fast, and
that many Of their troubles will disap-
pear If left alone.
But" he said, there is another
group that won't improve without
treatment If we begin at the top OF
the baby we must classify meningitis
as one OF the most serious complaints,
"There Is one sort of meningitis from
which every child dies. There is an
other kind, however, in which the child
is almost sure TO get well IL the dis
ease is taken In time. If the baby Is
troubled with headaches and II he
holds his head too far back call the
doctor quick.
"The baby's eyes can usually be kept
in good condition by bathing them
with solution OF borax and water.
But IL the eyes begin TO run and this
continues even two or three days II

Hot Weather Hints

In the June issue of the health de-
partment monthly bulletin, DR.. g..
]. Larson, the Negaunee health officer,
offers some valuable suggestions on
Hot Weather Hygiene" and Infant
Hygiene During Hot Weather. " In
an Introductory paragraph he SAYS
"Our summers are unusually delight
full, and decidedly healthful While
the temperature may go high occa-
sionally, the air is dry and the heat
can be we'll borne. The occasion for
any special hot weather hygiene is not
as great as in more southern parts
still there are certain rules that should
be observed, and especially with rela-
ton to young children. "
The health officer continues
The energy and heat developed in
the body comes from what we eat. In
colo weather more fats and rich foods
are needed to supply the necessary heat
and energy required In hot weather
very little In the way of fats should be
consumed, and the same is true of all
foods containing much sugar. No
heavy meals should be- eaten. More
fluids are needed TO supply the increas-
ed loss by evaporation, but no great
quantity should be taken at any one
time, as that will over stimulate per-
spiration. 4 more vegetable diet,
with slightly acid drinks, and as much
fresh fruit as possible. is best
