sical and mental attainments to the
development of this district, and
through his service publicly and pri-
vately to it's people, he won a place
of respect and admiration in the
hearts of all who knew him.
HE was a resident of the city of
Wallace since 1889, and gave to the
development of this city the best OF
his thought the benefit of good busi-
ness judgment and an unselfish spirit
in working for its development. As
Ia merchant, banker and a citizen,
as we'll as a husband and father, he
has left pleasant memory and the
record of life to be emulated by all.
'sThis organization feels his loss
most keenly and desires to express to
those who were his most immediate
concern, while he was among us, his
wife and children, the sympathy OF
Fall its membership, and our resolve
that his example as business man
and citizen shall serve as our

ficer, speaking for himself and the
health officers of Wallace and Kel-
logg, spoke upon the probable recur-
renee of influenza and the necessity
of taking precautions now to prevent
lit, He read the suggestions prepar-
ed by the health officers covering
prevention and treatment of the NAL
ady and strongly urged all members
of the board Of trade to cooperate
with the health authorities in their
efforts to avoid another flu epidem-
ic. Dr. Bean also stated that the
physicians of the county were agreed
that vaccination to prevent flu was
desirable; that while 1t did not al
ways prevent contracting the dis
ease it rendered it less virulent, and
statistics show that few cases result
fatally after vaccination. Physicians
of the county are now supplied with
the serum. Those who feel unable TO
pay the expense will be served free
by the city and county health officers.
