DR.. P!: RY WINS
ME AMAGE CASE
Suit B hit Against Local Physician
for ipractice Consumes Three
Da Superior Court; Fall Term
E Last Thursday

The fall term of Watauga superior
court closed last Thursday, the last
week having been devoted to the
trial of civil cases. The most i'm
portant of these suits, which con-
sumed three days of the term was
the damage suit brought against DR.
H. B. Perry, widely known local
physician and owner of the Watauga
Hospital, by Doris Wilson by her
next friend w. C. Miller, alleging
malpractice in connection with an
appendix operation and asking dam
ages in the sum of $5.01C.
The suit grew out of an operation
performed by DR.. Perry in 1928
when the "stub" of an appendix vas
not removed. Sometime later, how
ever, the remaining portion of the
appendix was taken out at another
hospital, following which the action
charging malpractice was commenc-
ed. Attorneys Ralph G. Bingham
W. C. Newland and T. C. Bowie ap-
peared for the plaintiff while Dr.
Perry was represented by Attorneys
Brown & Bingham and Hayden
Burke of Taylorsville. The latter
led the brilliant defense and the case
aroused unusual interest, not only
locally but throughout the state. Dr.
Henry Long of Longs Sanitorium
Statesville; DR.. Crowell of Lincoln
ton, president of the State Medical
Society, and DIR. Mason, eminent
New Jersey physician, furnished
the expert medical testimony, each
of them endorsing the method OF
procedure carried out by DR.. Perry
and explaining in detail in medical
parlance the theory upon which such
operations are based. Attorneys fol
the plaintiff, Notwithstanding the
fact that two doctors had been sum.
moned on their behalf, did not in.
troduce any medical testimony
which fact furnished considerable
capital for Attorney Burke in his
address before the jury. Governor
Newland and Judge Bowie made the
plea for the plaintiff and the case
was given to the jury Wednesday
morning. The verdict was rendered
Wednesday afternoon and the popu-
lar physician was declared not gull
ty.
Both plaintiff and defendant were
represented by brilliant legal talent
and the suit was one of the most
colorful civil actions to come before
Watauga superior court for many
years. Interested parties from prac-
tically all sections of the state were
present at the hearings.

A SCHOOL TEACHER OF
YE OLDEN TIMES

Mr.. J. Lewis Glenn, of Sugar
Grove r. F. D., one of The Demo
Gratis old friends, and very sub
stantial citizen in the Beech Greek
section, where he was born and
reared, has been a frequent caller
at "the shop" while attending
court. He is quite an interesting
talker, and his visits are always
much enjoyed, as he delights in
"reminiscences of the days long gone.
He was one of the pioneer school
teachers of Watauga and says he
taught in almost every district from
Boone to the Mitchell county line,
beginning when he was twenty, and
bidding farewell to the school room
when he was forty-five. For the
quarter of a century, he never failed
to teach two schools per year, which
meant SO terms to his credit. He
was asked as to the amount of sal
airy teacher received in those days,
and replied: "Oh, well, l only got
$500 per month when l began, but
just about the time quit, the salary
was advanced to $25.00 per-"
"When l quit teaching" he said,
81 began work on the farm and
since then l have been busying my
self in giving my children education
al advantages that l did not have in
my early days" And just how we'll
he succeeded is known to all his
friends in Watauga. Different mem
bers Of the family have college de-
grees and others rapidly advancing
to the goal. The family is an ideal
one. Mr.. Glenn was made a wonder
full success, and despite his advanc-
ing years, is still active, both on his
farm and in public afafirs, and it is
good to say that he is in easy circum-
stances, despite the fact that he was
left fatherless and motherless boy
when he was only six years old.

Ashe Civitan Club
Receives Charter

About twenty-five members of
the Boone Civitan Club, their wives
and guests, were present at the
meeting of the Ashe County club
held at the Pine Crest hotel, Glen
dale Springs, last Thursday evening.
The occasion was the presentation
of the charter to the baby Civitan
club in the Carolinas association,
and the gathering was very happy
one. The meeting was presided over
by Civitan l. G. Greer of the Boone
club, and Rev. Herbert Spaugh, of
the Charlotte club, presented the
charter to the newly formed civic or
ganization on behalf of the Carolinas
District Association. Mr.. Spaugh in
his presentation appealed to the new
Civitan club to live up to the Civitan
creed and to adopt the Golden Rule
for it's guidance. He said that
whatever a club sows that will it
reap. "Your club will be under the
Golden Rule or it will be under the
rule of gold" he declared.
ACIoIilCy ia L. oOIiioGOIi, VIC
president of the Ashe county club,
accepted the charter on behalf of his
organization. Beginning his talk
in humorous vein, Mr.. Johnston
closed with an appeal to the MEM
bers of the civic organization to
live up to the ideals as set forth in
the Civitan creed, and in doing so,
it would aid materially in building
a nobler citizenship in Ashe county.
Short talks were also made by
DR.. c. H. Pugh, president of the
Gastonia club, ]. L. Seagraves of
the Ashe club, |. G. Greer and w.
H. Gragg, of the Boone club.
At Camp Yonahlossee Today
Just before the charter presenta-
ton program was taken up, the
Boone club unanimously accepted
the invitation of Prof. and Mrs w.
L. Winkler to hold the meeting this
evening at Camp Yonahlossee, six
miles southwest of Boone. Wives
of the club members are invited and
a delightful time is anticipated.

Cattle Dealers Help
Eliminate Scrub Sire

Local cattle dealers are materially
aiding the Watauga Livestock Asso-
citation in its efforts to get rid of the
scrub bulls of the various communi-
ties, by offering to buy these ami
mails wherever found at the very
highest price they can pay. Reports
of the purchase of several of these
sires have come to the association,
and communities are beginning to
vie with each other in their efforts
to first establish themselves in the
purebred column.
Officials believe that the farmers
of the county will not be content
until the scrub sire is definitely
eliminated from the herds.
Mr.. G. P. Hagaman, secretary of
the Livestock Association. is in re-
ceipt of the following letter from
Mr.. w. E. Shipley, successful
cattleman, of Wallace, Va, dealing
with the subject of purebred cattle:
Just a few suggestions that
would make in regard to buying
purebred sires, noticing in The
Democrat your bank offering to aid
as far as possible. Now, to buy
dairy breed bulls, if your members
interested in buying will, at this sea-
son buy young bull calves, say six
weeks old, they can buy real good
blood for a little outlay of money.
One of my boys had little money
he got out of his tobacco crop last
fall and l bought him a registered
Guernsey bull calf six weeks old for
$35. He is out of an imported dam
that produced $40 pounds of butter
fat last year, and his sire has
great record. He would now bring
5000
"As to beef breeds, if enough of
your members would go in for
enough to make a carload | would
suggest not to wait till next spring
to buy yearlings, but would buy g.
months old registered calves weigh
ing around 500 pounds, and l would
buy line breed calves. If you could
buy them worth the money in this
way you will save at least $50 per
head and when the breeding season
comes your bulls are ready for
service.
-Four or five thousand dollars
ought to buy 40 real good registered
sires, and when the farmers and cat
tie grazers of southwest Virginia
find that a carload of registered
bulls have gone into Watauga coun-
ty, the home market will be estab-
lished. Governor Stuart asked me
one time if l were going to buy a
fancy drove of steers where would
l go? l told him I would go where
where they kept good purebred
bulls. He says You are right"
