Peter Braun Laid to Rest

The funeral of Peter Braun Sr.,
whose death was chronicled in last
week 8 issue, was held from st. Am
brose church Saturday morning, Rev.
A. l. Buytaert officiating. Burial was
in the catholic cemetery.
Peter Braun was born on farm at
Kewaskum, Washington county, s..
years ago. When a young man he
went to Miles City, Mont, where he
was married and resided for several
years. From the west he returned to
Wisconsin and engaged in farming for
year or two at Pennington. He
came to Wabeno with his family twenty
years ago and settled on the farm west
of town which had since been his home.
Mr.. Braun had been in with influenza
two years ago and never fully recover
ed. During the past year he had had
several attacks of heart trouble and
was under the doctors care most of the
time.

Health Officer Visits Wabeno

DR.. Louis Dorpat, deputy state
health officer, visited Wabeno last Fri
day on official business for the state
board of health. His territory covers
twelve counties, and he is marking
special efforts at present to combat
whooping cough and infantile paralysis.
Il deeply regret" said DR.. Dorpat,
''that Forest county has failed to en-
ploy county nurse, as provided by
law. An annual salary of $3.50 %, l
am told, has been voted by the county
board for the employment of county
nurse, that would S37 SO per month.
1t is very plain that the salary was
made so low in order to avoid engaging
nurse, as no nurse could be secured
for that amount of money. There are
many cases in Forest county that re-
quires the attention of public health
nurse. These nurses are doing wonder
full work elsewhere and no doubt
public health nurse in this county
would annually save for the taxpayers
many times the amount of her salary.
I sincerely hope that the county board
will employ a nurse in the near
future"
This is the season for whooping
cough and infantile paralysis. Hereto
fore whooping cough has been most
prevalent in Wisconsin during July and
August, and this year has been no ex-
ception. During July sharp increase
has also been noted in infantile par
alysis cases. Compared with the sum
mer of 1929 nearly twice as many cases
of this disease are being reported. Up
to July 18th 36 cases have been report
ed from scattered localities. 1nfantile
paralysis usually prevails to greater
extent in Wisconsin from july to
October than during other periods. -
"Some enormously consider whoop-
| ing cough trivial malady and say,
1.-The sooner the children have it, the
BETTER But this is a fallaciors as
sumption, which has heretofor led to
many deaths. Whooping cough ranks
high as a child killer During 1920
| 28l lives in Wisconsin were sacrificed
to this preventable affiiction. Ninety
per cent of the children who died were
under the age of 5 years. This fact
strongly suggests the great special
necessity for protecting those under 5
years from whooping cough
"When physician is not employed,
it is the duty of the head of the family
to report whooping cough. Failures to
do this is punishable under the law
Homes in which whooping cough is
present should be conspiciously placard-
ed for six weeks. Children who have
the whooping cough are not permitted
to leave the premises and outside
children are not permitted to enter or
remain on the premises
''Infantile paralysis is one of the
very worst children's diseases 1t is
pitiful to see the children who are de-
formed from this dreaded ailment.
There is an absolute quarantine for at
least three weeks in infantile paralysis
but exposed adults may be released
from quarantine after thorough disin-
fection of their person and clothes.
They may then take up their residence
elsewhere. The prevention and con-
troll of infantile paralysis is discussed
in special publication by the state
board of health. To those desiring
more detailed information copy will

ROOSEVELT PORTRAIT
Will Appear on SIS Treasury Savings
Certificates.

Secretary Mellon to-day announced
that the portrait of Theodore Roose-
welt will appear for the first time on a
government security, on the $25 de-
nomination of new issue of treasury
savings certificates which will be placed
on sale toward the end of the present
calendar year. The new issue of treas
ury savings certificates will be fea-
ture of the unified government savings
plan which is now being developed by
the secretary of the treasury and tie
postmaster general. and will be an
nounced later in greater detail. The
new plan will combine to the best pos
sible advantage the facilities OF the
treasury and the postal savings system,
and is designed to promote popular saw
ing and investment in government Sc
curities. The securities offered viii have
wider popular appeal and will be
placed on sale throughout the country
in convenient form. 1t is regarded as
particularly appropriate that the Roose-
welt portrait should appear on secu--
ity OF this character, and on the de-
nomination which will be most avail
able to the general public.

the clerk that this was money that had
been concealed in his house for a long
time to use in case of emergency, but
he had suddenly commenced to realize
that it was not earning him anything.
He asked the clerk to give him war
savings stamps to the extent of the
roll, and after it was counted the clerk
discovered that he had made a sale of

POSSE SEEKING
WRECKING TRIO
Who Sent Grand Trunk
Train Into Ditch at
Elba, Mich.
FIVE PEOPLE HURT,
ONE MAY DIE
Engineer Saw Rail Had
Been Removed and
Slackened Speed

Lapier, Mich, Oct. pa sheriff !
posse and railroad detectives were
searching the countryside to-day for
three men who late last night fed
from the scene of the derailment of the
first section Of the Grand Trunk pas
senger train number five. The men were
believed by the authority to be the
train wreckers who removed rail near
Elba, three miles from here, with the
result that the entire train, except one
pullman car, plunged into the ditch.
Three persons were injured seriously.
A fiagman saw the trio running into
the woods from the scene of the wreck,
as he went to the rear to place warning
signals. One of the men, he reported,
was well past middle age, while his
companions were much younger. This
directed suspicion toward man about
55 years of age who had been in Elba
three days and who was seen last night
in company with two young men. The
three, it was said, had carefully avoid
ed contact with the villagers.
That the train had been deliberately
wrecked was established, officials said,
by the finding of track workers tools
at the point of the derailment. Railroad
men identified the tools as having been
stolen from the Elba section house two
days ago.
The engineer observed from a dis
lance that rail had been removed and
was able to slacken the speed of the
train before it reached the spot. The
engine turned over three times as it
hurtled into the ditch and this so d.
minished the speed Of the coaches that
they merely left the rails and toppled
over The track was torn up for dis
tance of more than 100 yards.
The injured, two passengers and the
fireman. were brought here for treat
ment. The fireman. severely scalded, /
probably could not recover, it was
stated. /
