CHAPTER EIGHT

MIR. LEWIS. like his wife, seemed
A'A to be of a friendly DISPOSE
ton. He was gently jocose with
Jean, assuring her that Sandy had
been able neither to sleep nor eat
properly since he had met her.
All I've heard" he said, "since
that other night, has been a lot OF
stuff about some beautiful mama
with golden hair"
He sat slumped down in his chair
and looked at Jean with sly impu-
dence.
rs that right, Sandy?" she asked
cts been worse than that" said
Sandy lugubriously. I'm wasting
away to shadow"
TOO bad about you" she said
lightly. You look healthy enough
The music stopped and Bobby and
Eve came back to the table. Bobby
was duly introduced to Mr.. Lewis
and as they sat down Jean disCov-
cred that her conscience was try
ing to make itself heard again.
There you go" said Conscience
you're egging me on"
I'm not" said Jean indignantly
Cant 1 say anything to hin?"
You we're jealous when you saw
Sandy with Eve, but you weren't
jealous a bit when Bobby danced
with her" said Conscience.
L won't listen to you any longer,
said Jean firmly.
A ripple of laughter greeted hel
as she emerged from this bit of self
communion. Bobby had Just tolc
some funny incident or other that
had occurred that afternoon while
he tried to sell an automobile 70 a
pompous doWager.
"She said, Only $500? That
isn't nearly enough!'" he repeated
Mr.. Lewis looked at him with
interest.
so you sell autos, do you?" he
asked.
We'll, try to-"
"Mmm. Who you WITH"
Estate Auto Sales, incorporated. y
"Uh. That's Mark Hopkins
agency, isn't it?"
Yeah"
who's Mark Hopkins, dear?'
asked Eve.
oh" said her husband, hes
quite a guy. He runs this big auto
agency here, and he's sort of sport
promoter on the side. I guess he's
in politics some too, isn't he?"
Il guess So said Bobby.
T EVILS stared at the drink which
- the waiter put in front of him.
and held the glass cuppad in his
hand for a long time, studying it
intently.
Listen" he said to Bobby at last
You and I might be able to do
some business, one of these days"
Bobby looked at him expectantly
yeah" went on Lewis. I'm 60
ing to be needing a new car. Might

guesS."
He yaWned lazily.
"That'd be SWELL said Bobby.
Lewis continued to look at his
glass.
Trouble is" he said, Il got a
little deal to put over, first"
Bobby looked at him expectantly
Eve also turned to her husband.
Nov listen" she said lets not
talk business here. We're supposed
to be here for recreation tonight
Besides =" Her voice trailed off

"Okay," said Lewis, good-natured-
ly. Tell you what; when we're
ready to leave, let's all buzz out 70

Then you girls can fix up a little

HAROLD KOCH, chairman of
L L the ticket committee of the In
dianapoliS American Bowling Con-
gress Tournament Corporation, re-
ported in meeting of that group in
the Hotel SEVERN yesterday that
more than $4,000 already had been
collected from the advance sale of
season tickets, although the opening
date of the classic is many months
away.
Other chairmen submitted reports
on the progress of their committees,
and after the session, Paul Crosier
president Of the corporation, an
nounced that without doubt the
tourney next spring would be the
greatest in bowling history. One
of the biggest problems of the
local body after being awarded the
1886 event was that of heating the
huge coliseum during the six weeks
of activities. Arrangements have
been made, it was reported in yes
terday'S session, to start work i'm
mediately on a heating plant that
will assure the thousands of partici-
pants and spectators warmth and
comfort during the progress Of the
event.
Launch Local Campaign
With record entry of visiting
teams assured. MIR. Crosier an
nounced that the tourney corpora
ton would concentrate its efforts
during the next few weeks toward
the enlistment of 5000 local quintets.
With this quota in view. the initial
open meeting for Indianapolis pas
timers will be held at the SEVERN
Hotel headquarters next Saturday
night. The problem of organizing
hundreds of new teams faces local
promoters, and they are hopeful of
recruiting the aid of some of the
more seasoned veterans.

for a month or more. only two teams
have escaped defeat. Inland Containers

Health Department Continues
Immunization Work In County

The Health Department is continu-
ing its work of immunizing children
of the county against diphtheria. Of
the 101 children tested at Friends
vile last week, II were found to need
toxoid and the immunizing injections
were given at the offices of the local
physicians there in cooperation with
the Health Department.
Since then 213 Schick tests were
done at the Grantsville school and ar
rangements have been made for a CO.
operative clinic at DR.. Davis office at
Grantsville on Thursday, February IA.
Each child who comes will be given a
dose of toxoid.
There has been considerable COM
ment in the Pittsburgh papers about
the failure of antitoXin in certain
cases there and an investigation is
now going on. There are two possibil-
tiles in such eases, according to DR..
E. c. Peck, health officer.
Gone, that the antitoxin used is
not as strong as it should be, as is
charged by some of the Pennsylvania
authorities. The second possibility is
one which has given all health author
tiles much anxiety. For several years
there have been appearing in Europe
and for the last three years in Amer
lea some cases Of diphtheria which
did not respond to treatment with an
titoxin. At first it was thought that a
new type of diphtheria had appeared
and that antitoxin was useless, but
further study has shown that this
type of case is caused by a strain Of
the diphtheria germ which grows rap
idly and produces poison more rapidly
than usual, so that within "a hours
of the beginning Of the disease so
much poison may be formed by the
germs in the child's throat that the
case is hopeless.
at has been determined by careful
laboratory tests that this toxin or
poison is the same as that made by
the ordinary type of germ and that

antitoXin will neutralize it if given
within twenty-four hours of the be-
ginning of the disease. For children
outside Of hospitals and especially in
the country, it is practically impossi-
BILE that a case of diphtheria should
receive such prompt treatment. The
preventive measures taken against
the disease are effective against the
severe type as well as the mild type
and for this reason it is more impor-
tant than ever before that children
should have the preventive inocula-
tions against diphtheria, and should
be proven by the Schick test to be i'm
mune.
"For the last two years the Mary
land State Department Of Health has
determined the strain of germ found
in every case of diphtheria where a
culture was obtained.
Gone fatal case in Garrett county
in November, 1888, was proved to be
due to this grave strain of diphtheria
bacillus.
"The local health office will be sup
piled at once with diphtheria antitoxin
made by another company other than
the one accused in Pittsburgh" DR..
Peck concluded.

Support for Savage River Dam
Asked of National Organization

Mark W. Roe, chairman of the Up
per Potomac River Board, appeared
Tuesday before the projects commit
tee of the National Rivers and Har-
bors Congress in Washington and
urged that the $1,25O,OOO Savage Riv-
er dam project in Garrett county be
approved by the committee.
An application for a public works
fund allotment for the dam has been
pending for several months. The dam
would be built in this county and will
govern the flow of the water of the
Potomac river at all seasons of the
year, engineers claim. 1t was also
stated the project would provide en-
ployment for 500 men for at least a
year.
