Unusual Operation
Saves Boys Life

MARTINSBURG, w. Va, Jan. "a.
A remarkable operation by DIR. T.
K! Oates at the City Hospital, on
Clarence Sampson, 12-year-old son
Of Robert Sampson, has resulted in
that lad recovering from what was
widely believed fatal accident.
The boy. while coasting along a
sidewalk a few weeks since, collided
with an automobile. His skull was
crushed in from the base to the
forehead and about an ounce of brains
spilled. DIR. Oates picked out the
splinters of bone and the hundreds
of hairs driven into the brain. Ma
ture assisted by a cartilage-like
growth over the deep wound, and
the boy is now considered to be on
the road to recovery.
