Disappointed Tourists 5ack-Disap-
pointed. speaking from viewpoint OF
desire to see the old country, but sat
fsf1ed to escape the danger accompany
ing warfare, several Davenport peo-
pie are returning to this city. Four
men have already arrived here. The
family of Ernst Goenne is touring the
eastern states instead of traversing
European countries but will be here
within few days. John Nobel, Ernst
Schulz, William Stradt and William
Kay complete the rest of the party
who, with Mr.. and Mrs. Ernst Goenne
and daughter Hattie, we're to have
sailed Saturday upon the Vaterland.
Cancellation of the sailing date put a
damper upon their interest and with
the greater per cent of the 1920 who
were planning to make the trip, they
turned back.
"One young girl, not more than is
or 19, put some of us old fellows to
shame" said Mr.. Nobel, in telling OF
his shortened trip. when We found
the Vaterland was not to sail, we i'm
mediately gave up all hope, but not
that little girl. She went right over
to another line and sailed for Ger
many by the way of Belgium. She
was from Denison, / think, and we
Iowans were proud of her.
Patients Must Have An order-In
the future there will be no patients
received at the county hospital with
out an order from the board of super
visors. This announcement was made
by the supervisor syesterday after no.
tcie from trustees of the institution.
This provision is made for the purpose
of keeping the county informed as to
the work being carried on at the
county establishment and to know at !
all times who is being taken care Of
there. Since the opening of the hos
pital, July 4, the county has been
at a loss concerning requisite knowl- |
edge of patients receiving treatment. |
Thus far they have been sent to the
institution upon the order of the at !
tending physicians at the request of
the sick persons. Instead of treating |
only those who should be given coun- |
ty aid, it is thought that continued |
use of the wards there without appli- |
cation first having been made to the |
supervisors will have the consequence
of permitting those who are able to |
pay to make use of the hospital.
