BOARD IS GIVEN TWO WEEKS
 MORE OF CLOSED
 MEETING PLACES
Little Opposition to Recom- mendation of Board of Health for Continuation
 of Influenza Ordinance

Birmingham's churches, schools,
 movies" theatres, pool rooms
 and meeting places must remain
 dark for at least another fort
 night, beginning Monday, accord
 ing to resolution passed at
 meeting of the city commission
 yesterday morning. This action
 was voted unanimously following
 brief discussion of the situation
 by Dr. J. D. Bowling, health of-
 ficer; Professor Wheeler and W.
 s. Mudd.
 Dr, Bowling explained that the cpl demie was still in a dangerous stage and justified the most stringent re- strictions being placed upon all busi- nesses whose conduct necessitated the congestion of people in an unusual number.
 The resolution as adopted also pro- vides that retail stores must refrain from special sales or bargain sales that tend to cause undue assembling of people in crowds" This is construed by Dr, Bowling as meaning that the merchants should cooperate by not displaying a particular article or bar gain that would draw heavy crowds to g particular counter
 At no time did l find people in the stores in as close contact as they were in the streets" said Dr. Bowling, in discussing his investigation of the sit- uation. "The closing of the stores would simply turn the people out on the streets and add to the density of street crowds and I see no reason for taking such a step, Neither do I see any reason for stopping the advertis- ing done by stores except where it is of the variety that would likely bank crowds around certain counters as in the case of fire and bargain sales"

SKIN OF THIRTY FROGS

flee Not Permitted

Des Moines, Iowa-Three hundred
and fifty inches Of skin from thirty
frogs was grated upon the body of
Mrs Sam Sport, who was severely
burned in a gasoline explosion and
fire. DR.. Rodney Faeen performed
the operation at Mercy Hospital and
reports that the patient is doing well.
1t required an hour for DR.. Pagan TO
skin the frogs and thirty minutes to
craft the skins onto Mrs Sports chest
torearms and right thigh
DR.. Pagan decided that a large
amount OF skin must be grated. Then
the question arose should Sam Sport
the woman's husband and a laborer
give up a large amount of skin from
his body to be grated onto that Of his
wife? The husband was willing and
anxious TO make the sacrlfice-b
the wife and others considered
First-That more than 800 inches
was required, and that amount could
not be taken from one person. There
were no friends to volunteer and rel.
atiyes were in other states, too far to
be reached in time.
Second The husbands earnings
would be cut of, and his job needed
protection. There were hospital bills
end other expenses which had been pill
ing up since the accident
Mrs. Short asked Or Rodney Fagen
police surgeon, what they should do
The grating operation had to be per
formed next day More than half OF
he body had been burned
. It was then that Dr. Fagen resolved
to replace the lost skin with the skin
taken from frogs, and the grating op

MRS. JOHN T. PooRE.

Mrs. John T. Poore died at her
home in Calhoun Falls Tuesday OF
heart trouble. She was sick only
a short time and as her death was
unexpected it came as a shock to
her family and relatives. Funeral
services were held at Rocky River

cemetery at the church. She was a
member of this church and had lived
good upright life trying to keep
the commandments and doing good
wherever she could. Since the death
of her husband she has been in
charge of the hotel at Calhoun Falls
and has made success with the
work. She is survived by several
children the oldest boy being in the
Hospital corps and stationed at
Camp Jackson.
Deep sympathy is extended to the
family and relatives.
