Just what Jesus may have said to

To Mrs. Phillips

At meeting of the Morgan Coun-
ty Medical society a few days ago,
the following resolution was adopt
ed:
Whereas we as members of the
Morgan County Medical society real
ize with sorrow the loss of one most
active in the civic and social welfare
of our community, vital in our med
ical circle as matron of Rocky Glen
sanatorium, and who has had very
great interest in matters of manage
ment and welfare of this our only
and highly creditable medical insti-

Be it resolved that we are greatly
saddened by the sudden passing of
Mrs. Phillips, but that we may find
consolation in the memories of the
many kind services she has given in
the hours of sickness and distress

FISH AND GAME LOSS FROM
FLOOD NOT GREAT

Ohio's loss of fish and game due
to recent floods will not be as great
as originally was feared, according
to reports from division of conser-
vation field men, Commissioner L..
Wooddell announced. Some loss of
fish has been reported, but these
losses were confined chiefly to the
non-game species, the commissioners
declared Ohio's only game birds,
are scarce in the Ohio valley, scene
of the greatest food. While quail
are plentiful there, the birds taking
to the air were able to reach high
ground. Due to the fact that the
Matching season still is months away,
no nests were destroyed. Floods
later in the season do great harm
to nests of the game species, which
hatch their young entirely upon the
ground. Game animals and fur
bearers for the most part made their
way to the hills as the water rose,
