full results.
"Thirty of the Kalii patients were

Seventy-eight patients in all have

Leprosy came to Hawaii about 1910,
said Mrs. Blaisdell, its first appear

that day failed to take precautions
against it until it was to late and to-
day the majority of cases is among
the members of that fine old race that
once ruled supreme in the islands.
Chaulmoogra oil is extracted from
the nuts of the chaulmOogra tree, a
native of Burmah and other static
countries. In the station grounds at
Kalihi is young chaulmoogra tree,

WOMAN FATALLY
BURNED COOKING
HOLIDAY, DINNER

While Mrs Hester Apitzsch, 46
years old of Glendale. was prepar-
ing Thanksgiving dinner in her home
Thursday morning, flames from an
oil stove caught her clothing. With
in d few seconds her clothing was
entirely on fire and she was writing
on the floor in pain. Less than an
hour later Mrs. Apitzsch died at ST.
Jcseph's hospital.
She was the wife of William Api
t2sch, of the r. w. Smell surgical APP
rliance firm of this city.
In the yard of the Apitzsch home,
but a few feet from where their
mother was preparing what was to
have been the happiest meal of the
year, two sons aged 20 and -, were
chopping wood.
SEEING the flames the boys ran into
the kitchen to find their mother in
agony on the floor. With the aid of
neighbors, efforts were made to save
Mrs. Apitzsch's life, but to no avail.
The Mcdowell and Monteverde am
bulance rushed to st. Joseph's hos
pital with Mrs. Apitzsch, but she
died shortly after the completion of
the journey.
The last memory of their mother
the lads hold is the extreme forti-
tude she maintained in spite of her
intense suffering. She did not scream
once. and while in the ambulance on
the way to the hospital told the de-
tails of the accident.
At the hospital priest admins
tered the last sacraments to Mrs.
Apitzsch. The Apitzsch family came
to Glendale from West Virginia two
years ago. Although it is not def
mite, the body will probably be
taken to the Eastern state for burial
Mrs. Apitzsch is survived by five
children. They are: Mrs. Hester
Hindman, Robert. Lawrence, Arthur
and RAYMOND,
