.6S SCARLET FEVER
 SUFFERERS HERE
(Continued From First Page)
Epidemic Traced To Milk

That the scarlet fever epidemic is traCeable to milk delivered in this city was the announcement today Of Health Officer Joseph I. Woisard. As result of this finding, State Health Physician Dr. P. F. knowlton was called into conference today with the local health officer and the Vol colt health officer to trace down the source in Wolcott where the milk dealer got his supply. It was under stood this morning that the milk dealer bought some milk from farms near his home to replenish his sup ply.
 E. H. Elton, at the request of the health department, has taken over the milk route of the Wolcott milk dealer, who has been quarantined at his home, following the outbreak of the scarlet fever at his home.
 In order that the new dealer might learn the route, the original distributor preceded the Elton em- ployes to point out the homes.
 Quarantine Prevents Trial
 Edwin Pierce of Wolcott road, whose continued case on the charge of reckless driving following an auto collision some time ago when he struck Louis Bunnell on Wolcott street was scheduled to come before the local court this morning, did not appear when his case was called. An investigation proved that the home of Mir. Pierce is now under quaran- tine for scarlet fever and It was de- cided not to send for him. The case was further continued.
 "A quarantine is one thing that Is greater than the law" Wa Judge Donovan's comment on tne situ- alton.
 Mass Meeting Slightly Attended
 Due to the prevalence of scarlet fever in this city which is preventing many from attending public meet ings, the attendance at the union mass meeting of the churches of tn" city in the Bristol Baptist church last evening was small. Only about 800 turned out to hear Dr. Clifford Gordon of Melbourne, Australia speak. The intense cold weather also kept many indoors.

In fall of 1922 the Redwater Val

property of Claude Berry on an ac-
count Berry owed. This was done
and buckskin saddle horse, saddle

and sold. Later it developed that
the property attached as belonging
to Berry, had been bought from Mr..
Brunson by Mr.. Berry, but not paid
for, and therefore Brunson claimed
it was his property.

HURLEY HAS AUTO ACCIDENT

While coming out from Glendive
last Sunday, former Judge Hurley
had an auto accident near Mount
Antelope that came very near up
setting the car, but fortunately, Mr..
Hurley was not hurt
Mr.. Hurley was coming down the
grade approaching the bridge, just
west of Mount Antelope, when the
Ford skidded off the grade and
plunged down into the coulee.
Adolph Anderson happened along
shortly afterward, but they were
unable to get the car out, without
use of team of horses, SO they had
to get team from Hans Peterson
who lives nearby.
The grade at this particular place
has been washed away partly and is
a pretty bad place especially when
roads are muddy.
