/ Whitacre Child Improving
We are glad to report that DR..
Whitacre's baby is so far on the
road to recovery as to be brought
home Sunday. The community
i feels more intimate interest in
| the welfare of the doctor and his
| family, for the reason that we were
so long without local doctor, and
DR.. Whitacre is spending his
! strength and skill so generously
upon those who have been hardest
| hit by the hard times, that we owe
him a vote of thanks for the Chris
tian service he is giving us. Before
DR.. Whitacre came, the outside doc
tors were doing all that was hu
manly possible, to take care of us,
but could not cover so much terri
tory; SO we want DR.. Whitacre to
like us well enough to stay with us.
