persons. But it was an enormous
| task.
Early today, weary workers had
piled sandbags to 10 feet high for
1000 feet. They will pile them a
foot higher as added precaution.
The Licking joins the Ohio near
Cincinnati.

night. They we're sightseeing in a
boat that overturned. Four others
were rescued.

at four. Two earlier deaths were
attributed indirectly to the flood.

last night that about $1,000 persons
had peen affected by the flood in
Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia and
Indiana.
The report did not include fam
| lilies that moved themselves and
families that have moved into sec
ond floor rooms in flooded areas. Nc
estimate of those families was avail
able.
George r. Marth, river forecaster,

BIBLE CLASS

BIBLE CLASS
Last Monday evening Mrs.
Alfred Sefton's Bible School
Class met at their rooms in the
Administration Building for
their usual monthly meeting to
sew. There was a splendid
crowd who worked on quilts.
This being the meeting when
the outgoing officers and
chairmen made reports on last
years work, also having a
speaker, the class did not sew
as long as usual.
Miss Augusta Kurrasch, out
going president, read Romans
1859 and offered prayer,
after which the Missionary,
Miss Beulah Bowers, was in
troduced. Miss Bowers work
is among the Chippewa In
dams in the vicinity of Stone
Lake, Wisconsin. Having been
engaged in this work for eight
years, she was able to give
very interesting talk as to the
difficulties and joys of getting
the Indians to accept the Lord
Jesus Christ as their Savior.
Following this talk, Miss
kurrasch asked all outgoing
officers and chairmen to make
their reports, which were very
gratifying. This Class has had
the responsibility of the Dor
cas- Work since October, and
all who could, have met Thurs
day afternoon of each week to
sew, as we'll as the last Mon
day evening of each month, to
prepare quilts and clothing for
distribution.
We want to thank the many
who have responded so gen
erously to the calls we have
made for clothing, buttons,
shoes, toys, etc., which has
made it possible for MANY
bushels of clothes of all kinds
to be given where needed, also
many coats and shoes. Differ
ent groups of ladies from this
class have gone to homes to
sew where sickness has been.
The Sunshine chairmen have
sent several hundred cards out.
1t is a real lift to get a card
when sick or sad and read on
it that some one is remember
