GOrmania Tannery May Resume
Operations

The citizens of the western section
of Grant county, West Va, are trying
to secure tannery company to take
over the Hoffman tanning plant at
tGormania and operate it. The plant
at Gormania is owned by the Flaccus
interests whose plant at Buckhannon
was destroyed by fire some time ago.
R. N. Oates, David Cuppett, ST., and
Paul Leatherman were in Pittsburgh
a short time ago comforting with Of
ficials of the Flaccus company.
Recently a citizens meeting was
held at Gormania, presided over by
Bob Oates, the object being to get
the sentiment of the people and see
what cooperation they would give to-
ward the movement.
A. F. Schwartz, an old tannery man,
spoke on what was needed for the OPP
GRAFTON of a tannery-labor, bark, pure
water, etc.,-all of which Gormania
has to offer. The men at the meeting
offered to donate labor from a few
days to two weeks helping to get the
plant started. About two hundred were
present, some of them experienced tan
merry men.
Chairman Oates then carried the
result of the meeting to the officials at
Pittsburg. A petition has already been
circulated in Grant county, West Va,
and nearby sections urging the COM
pany to locate at Gormania.

The local Health Office has received
word from the Board of State Aid and

ial Securities Act. Mr.. Thompson has

tation under the State Board of Edu-
cation, and is familiar with the prob
lens of handicapped children in Mary
land.
With the organization of this new
plan, Federal funds are made avail
able to aid the State funds in caring
for children who are handicapped Or
may be expected to be handicapped by
any physical defect except deafness
or blindness, which are cared for by
another agency. Mr.. Thompson will
have working under him an orthopedic
nurse who will keep in touca with
children cared for by this service. Ali
handicapped children in Maryland will
be located with the cooperation of
county school superintendent, health
officers, welfare workers, and other in
dividuals. The county health depart
ments cooperating with the orthopedic
surgeons of the Maryland League for

medical examinations of all such chill
dren. Where hospital care is recon-
mended by the orthopedic surgeon it

1870 patients were examined. Over
half of these patients were seen at ap-
pointment times, which lessened the
amount of waiting in line. Anyone who
wishes an appointment for this next
clinic should send self-addressed post
card to the local Health Office and
ask for an appointment. The time OF

the post card and mailed to him ard

Fire originating in the rear of the Gamble store at Wolf
Point last week threatened to destroy an entire business
block. Flames were started from a rubbish heap which
had been burned the day previous and which had sup
posedly burned out. The flames were extinguished after
they had burned through an outer wall of the building.
A high wind was blowing when the fire was discovered
and it is believed in a few more minutes the fire would
have completely Quilted the block.

Next Sunday is Mothers Day and millions of Amer
lean children will express affection for their mothers in
some tangible way.
This is a splendid idea and all of us should appre-
ciate the opportunity it offers. Affection and love for
ones own mother is the natural order of living and in
some individuals has grown into a veneration for moth
erhood in general and is marked by increasing concern
for the physical well-being of all mothers.
Mothers Day will not have achieved its purpose in
our lives until we, as a people, reach this last stage. I'm
happily, the number of deaths that accompany mother
hood in the United States every year indicates a tragic
failure on our part to do all that should be done. Encour-
aging, however, is the sentiment that has demanded that
steps be taken to assure proper safeguards for all moth
ers and to save the lives Of many women n~eedlessly sac
riiced each year.
The individual reader of this article may think that
his, or her, influence is small, but nevertheless we urge
everyone to take some interest in the problem. Certainly
civilization has not reached a very high level when such
a condition continues to exist without effective protest
from children who have grown into maturity and under
stand the factors involved.
