An airplane speeded from Kansas
City to Bedford, Ia, today with two
cases of antitoXin for treatment of
James Taylor no is in a dangerous
condition there from a snake bite.
Taylor, who is SO years old, was
by the county in which he
resides to haul lumber for con-
of a bridge, eight miles
of Bedford. While unload
ing the timber, he heard warning
rattle but was unable to move away
quickly enough to avoid the strike
of a rattlesnake. The snakes fangs
struck him in the calf of his right
leg, the force of the blow knocking
him to his knees, according to Jesse
Derrickson, a fellow employee who
was working with him.
Derrickson rushed Taylor to Bed
ford where physician made several
incisions in his leg to let out the
poison, pending arrival of antitoxin.
Derrickson said neither he nor Tay-
lor sa wthe snake and made no eff
fort to kill it after it struck Taylor.
Residents of the district said it was
very unusual to find a rattle snake
in that territory.
plea for help was received this
by George Delmar Ben
nett, general manager of the H. K.
Company, 926 Broadway,
Kansas City, Mo-, manufacturers of
anti-venin, and antidote for bites
from venuous snakes from the State
Board of Health at Des Moines.
Because of the extreme urgency Of
the case, Bennett was instructed to
spare no expense and chartered an
airplane to deliver the antitoxin.
He received no details of the case
other than there was no remedy
available in Bedford and the attend
ng physicians there had appealed to
Des Moines for help.
By train it would require eight
hours for relief to reach Bedford.
The same trip may be made by air
plane in two hours.

We listened to two stirring ser
mons in the Methodist Church last
sunday. The sermon in the morning
vas from Romans 18th chapter and
'1th verse. The pastor spoke of the
GOSPEL of Jesus Christ, how it ap-
,eals to some men. If men respond
O the thing that appeals unto them,
hen the gospel doesn't appeal to
ome of them. The Jealous heart
which maintins the spiritual glow is
success in life. We are here to
make a success of life. In all the
Professions there is need of an in
ensity of purpose.
