NOTEO POET IS VISITING HERE Frank Nelson, Auburn Writ- ; er, Calls On Friends In Decatur Today '' Frank Nelson, -of Auburn, noted la- . diana poet and personal friend of ' Edgar A. Guest, famous poet, visited I this city for several hours today, callI ing on friends. Mr. Nelson, who has gained prominence and fame as a poet, I writes poems weekly for several of r the leading Sunday papers of the • state. | His poetry is similar to that of Edgar Guest. Mr. Nelson has written [several interesting poems of his friends, one being about John D. An- [ ' drews, of this city, entitled “Whis(kers.” The poem was written as a! letter and was mailed to Mr. Andrews while he was on his recent trip to , .Oklahoma. Many of Mr. Nelson's poems have • survived the passing fashion of the I day and have been regarded as mas-' I teapieces. Included in his collection * I are odes to Riley, Marshall, Wilson j and other statesmen. !

“Your Health” Thia Column la conducted by the Adame County Medical Society and the Indiana State Medical Association in the Interest of the public’s health. When the Ambulance Siren Sounds Rieathes there a man with spirit so dead who never has stopped and turned his head —when the siren sounds and the ambulance speeds by. The real Inside story of just what Is happening within an ambulance, back at the hospital, and in the head of the young Intern, who is being whirled . through crowded streets on his mission to save human life is told in this week's bulletin issued by the Publicity Bureau of the Indiana State Medical l Association by a Hoosier who has r!d- ( ; den the ambulance as an intern in New- York City and Indianapolis. | | “Ambulance riding is the first real I thrill that an intern unusally gets after he has graduated from medical | school,” says the bulletin. “For many i long years the medical student has ■ been in training, learning how to treat the sick and take care of the injured. , and ambulance service usually gives the young physician his first opportunity to show his initiative. “Every call for the ambulance shows, how quickly the public’s confidence in the cultist and health faddist fades away in any real emergency, and how completely it places Us reliance and faith in the trained, qualified M. D. “In New York and some of the larg- . er cities, the physician who is in an I ambulance service has the temporary power of a police lieutenant and wears a special uniform. “In sotnes cities, ambulances go faster than is really necessary. Ambulance riders have admitted that some of their fastest calls have been made on patients who are suffering from chronic old age and senility. But no mat-; , ter how little actual medical work an| i ijjtern may do in the majority of the I cases where he answers ambulance calls, still he gets a training from answering emergency calls that he would get in no other way. He learns to be cautious in cases of gunshot wounds, stab wounds, and acute appendicitis. He learns to distinguish the vital injuries from the superficial wounds. I In the old days, before medical science j had been successful in preventing dip- | theria by toxin-antitoxin, the intern | had to be skilled in placing a ttilte in | the throat of the diptheria victim in I order that the patient might live until reaching the hospital. "In short, every practicing physician should go through a course of ambulance riding just as every trained newspaper man should go through the cub reporter training period. -Ambulance service in most of she Indiana cities is up to the ’snuff.’ Private institutions and hospitals are cooperating with the city authorities in Indianapolis and stand ready to send a private ambulance in any case of emergency when the regular ambulances of the city are busy answering calls. “It is the rule of every hospital that a patient should be given the benefit of the doubt when any question exists as to whether or- not he is sick enough to be taken to the hospital. Modern hospitals all have admitting wards and those patients who need ' only temporary treatment are taken 1 to this ward and are not admitted to the hospital proper until further examination. “Every intern must go on ambulance duty. In some hospitals an intern is on duty for a month at a stretch. Ambulance duty is one of the hardest in the hospital, the hospital ambulance usually averaging ten calls I a day, and the day for the ambulance rider is 24 hours long.” j o [Suit Against Fort Wayne Pastor On Trial • Fort Wayne, Ind . April 6. —(United' Press) —The $25,000 alienation of affection suit cf Howard Smith, of Lawrenceburg, Ind., against the Rev. Ed-' gar Mulens, Fort Wayne m'nister, was scheduled to start today in Superior Court here. Smith charges that Rev. Mullens, while serving as pastor of the Baptist church at Lafrenceburg. kept clande-| stine meetings with Mrs. Smith and ] won tier love. Rev. Mullens welcomed the trial clear his name of the accusations. His] attorneys were armed with dopos'tionof a number of members of the Baptist congregation at Ijawrenceburg on the conduct'of the minister. Smith divorced his wife after discovery of the alleged love affair between the minitfler and the woman. i Stated meeting of Decatur chapter, No. 112 Royal Arch Masons, Tuesday eveuiug. April 6. L. C.

Farm population January 1 was 30.655,000. compared with 31.134.000 a ■ year previous—a decrease of I'4 I ll ' l cent —according to the estimates, which include all men. women and (children living on farms. i The decrease was found in varying proportions in all parts of the nation. ' ranging from one-fifth of one per cent in the west, south, central states, to 3.9 per cent in the Mountain states. .

Births on farms. 710,000. Deaths on farms, 288,000. —o —— "Chirp. Chirp,” Greets Visitors At Postoffice When a person steps into the Decatur postoffice, or most any other postoffice, for that matter, these days, he is greeted by a volley of "chirp, chirp, and, if it were not for the familiar | postoffice fixtures in the front office, he might think he had walked into a j hatchery by mistake. I Tile annual movement of baby chicks from the hatcheries to the poultry raisers is on in earnest now and several thousand chicks have passed through the local postoffice already. Postmaster Fritzinger stated today that there were I.hOO chicks in the local postoffice one day last week. Some of the chicks are arriving in Decatur from liatcherios in other cities while some of them are being mailed by local hatcheries for destinations in other communities. ~ ——o Passenger Air Routes In Indiana In Near Future Is Possibility Indianapolis, Ind., April 6. —(United Press)—lndiana people soon will be able to make trips from Indianapolis to Louisville.
