PURCHASES X.RAY MACHINE
DR.. p. j. BrannOn is Equipping Office
With $4,000 Machine-One Entire
Room Required for Machine

An X-ray machine, costing in thu
neighborhood of $4,000. is being installed
this week in the Office of DR.. p. J
Brannon. The machine is the last wore
in equipment of this kind and is manu-
featured by the Victor company of Chi
cagO.
An entire room in the suite of DR.
Brannon's in the Mccarthy building is
required for the machine and to a nov
ice it appears most complicated. The
machine is the same as is used in the
largest hospitals of the country and
with it Dr. Brannon will be able to see
every bone in the body as well as
watching the functiOning Of the heart
stomach and other organs. In addition
there is photograph attachment SO
that pictures may be taken.
There has been need for such an x
ray machine in Denison for some time
for doctors have been compelled to
take patients to nearby cities where
such examinations were necessary. DIR.
Brannon informs us that he will not
confine the use of the machine to his
own patients, but will do work for 9TH
err doctors when they desire it.
DR.. BrannOn expects to have the ma
chine in operation the last of this week
and will he pleased to show it to all in
terested parties. The machine depends
on electric current and this will be fur
nished by the local light plant.

SAMPLE VOTING MACHINE
Voting Machine at Court House At.
tracts Considerable Attention Sim.
p!icity Keynote OF the Machine

a voting machine in the corridor OF
the court house has been attracting con.
siderable attention this week and visit.
Ors have been acquainting themselves
with the intricacies Of this wonderful
machine which is used extensively in
nearly all of the cities of the country.
r. D. Beamis, of Chicago. represent
ing the Empire voting machine, is here
trying to interest the board of super
visors in installing voting machines in
every precinct Of the county. He states
that twenty-five counties of the state
are already equipped with them and he
proposes to sell the necessary number
of machines for Crawford county with
payments equal to the amoutn of mon.
ey saved by the machine over the Aus
tralian ballot method now in use. The
cost Of the machine is in the neighbor-
hood of 5000 each and the approximate
cost of equipping all of the voting pre-.
cincts would be in the neighbOrhOOd of
$4,000.
The machine is a novel one and from
all appearances is fool proof. With
this machine but two election clerks
are necessary and voting can be &C.
complished much faster than with the
present system. When the polls close
it is but a matter of few minutes to
find out how many votes were cast for
the various candidates. Simplicity is
the keynote of this machine and a VOt-
err who reads the directions carefully
should have no trouble in casting his
vote.
Space does not permit our explaining
this machine in detail. but it is we'll
worth while going to the court house
to see it in operation.
