AGAIN RENEWING
OLD FRIENDSHIPS
Former Residents OF AndaiUSia Having
Enjoyable Time Recounting EXper-
fences of Past.
HOMECOMING Is GREAT SUCCESS
Miss j. Irma Wenks Gives Address OF
Welcome to Visitors and j. L. Hen
worthy Replies.

Many were the long handshakes and
the tear dimmed eyes at the Andalusia
homecoming today. Old friends that
had not seen each other in a score or
more Of years again gathered at the
old home town to recount interesting
experiences Of childhood days.
Considerably over one hundred Wis
itors had registered this morning.
They came from Dallas, Texas, Colo
RADIO, Michigan, New York and other
sections Of the country. They found
the -proverbial Andalusia welcome
awaiting them and "exiles" are enjoy
ing the time of their lives.
Greetings Extended.
Just at noon today, before dinner
was served at the town hall, Miss b.
Irma Wenks, in a brief address extend
ed d greeting TO the guests and assured
them OF the pleasure it gave Andalusia
to entertain them. The response was
made by John T. KenwOrthy of. Rock
Island. In his characteristic fashion
he recalled events of the long ago and
told OF incidents humorous and pa
thetic which had long been forgotten
by the former residents. Others were
called on for remarks and the Jones
Martial band gave several selections
Yesterday afternoon, Mrs. Mira Ken
worthy Magee, Taxarkana, Tex, who
formerly taught school at Andaulsia
said to some one she was thirsty. She
was taken to the 'old town pump"
around which so many bright memo
ries Of the past clustered and there as
the water was being drawn she recited
THE Old Oaken Bucket" with so much
feeling that few were the eyes of those
who had gathered around that were
not wet
The incident furnished an occasion
for an impromptu program and Mrs.
Grace kenworthy Haley, Muscatine,
another former resident, gave "OId
Lang Syne" and others gave songs and
reCitations. The homecoming will
last through tomorrow. Every minute
of the time IS proving enjoyable.

neyed to he developing the disease.
First diagnosis Of the ch1d's Illness
was made today by the family ply
stefan and Or. c. 7, Foster, municipal
health physician.
The cases is suspected Of being in
fantiIe paralysis, although it has not
developed suf5 GENTLY to make the doc
tors positive on this score. If the dis
ease does develop the case viii be b
mild one. The child has been Ill for
over a week, but not sufficiently SO in
the minds OF the parents TO demand the
attention of a physician. Today, how
ever. there was pronounced change
for the worse in the condition Of the
boy and the parents took him to the
family physician Following an exam
nation DR.. Foster was called and
symptoms OF iufautile paralysis were
discovered
Not until the paralysis develops can
doctors be sure of an infantile para
lySiS case. Believing that It would ne
well to take immediate precautions
against the spread Of the disease the
Carr family was placed in quarantine
CITY authorities have jurisdiction with
in three miles OF the municipal limits
and have the power TO maintain
quarantine over a home If 1t is within
that boundary.
VIII Make Third Case.
1t is expected within a couple OF
days doctors viii know whether or not
the Carr boy is III OF the disease If
the maIady does develop it viii make
two cases at present in Rock Island
county and the third one this sum
mer There is one case at present IN
Moline A child in the west end Of
Rock Island died several weeks ago as
a result Of having been i'll OF the dis
case.
DR.. Foster said today that because
of lack Of knowledge of the cause o.
the disease, the fact that the poor as
well as the rich are subject TO it, and
that it IS found in sanitary as well
as unsauitary homes, there are no pre-
cautions the public can be advised on.
He said that the only precaUtiOn that
can be taken is to quarantine lmme i
lately ana in this way protect the pub
