attracted hundreds from sur
rounding communities.

passed to its third and final
reading Tuesday evening at

well village council.
Mayor Homer Johnson presid-
ed for this meeting with all
members present for the April

The council recently passed an
increased rate ordinance for the
Ohio Fuel gas company and
these rates viii probably go into
effect in May or June.
Rates submitted by the Per-
mian Oil g. Gas company are
identical to those of the Ohio
Fuel and there is no question
but what it will also be passed
by council at its May meeting.
The increased rates, however,
will probably net go into effect
until fall, since the ordinance
must be published after the final
approval.
Council had also received
several complaints from resid-
ents on Spruce street relative to
the fire department carnival
being located there this summer.
After much discussion, the
council decided that it would be

Rare Operation On
Belle Valley Lady
Iva CoEnes Hos
Cornea Transplant

Mrs. L. E. Carnes, go, of Belle
Valley, the former Iva Picken-
paugh, underwent rare eye
operation, March 20 at Harper's
hospital in Detroit, Mich.
The cornea transplant opera
ton was performed by DR.
Rendemann, Detroit eye special
list.
Since the time element is very
important in an operation such
as this type, Mrs. Carnes was
taken to Detroit from Belle Val
ley in a chartered plane, as soon
as possible after she was noti-
fled. She was accompanied by
her husband, a we'll known busi-
ness man at Belle Valley and
a daughter, Mrs. Grace Brown,
of GAINESVILLE.
The cornea transplant was
performed on her right eye. It
is expected that the bandages
will be removed Friday. The
attending surgeon said it would
be about six months before it
could definitely be determined
whether the operation was a
successful one.
Mrs. Carnes' condition is very
satisfactory and it is expected
that she will be dismissed to
her home within the next week
or two.
