When it became apparent that water would drown the boiler fires, plant engineers hooked two locomotives direct to the plant steam line and power was never interrupted. This power also furnished lights for Greendale. The locomotives were used for five days and at one time water was within a few inches of their fire boxes.

We are giving about SiTO typhoid shots hero and about 200 at the Old Quaker plant. There has been no typhoid ini tbe area at this date—Feb. 4—no epidemics, only five scarlet fevers. At first our greatest need was drugs. One local druggist donated all that could be salvaged from his flooded shelves. Another took a boat through the second story win-1 dow of his store to get supplies We treated one man for exposure after that trip. Health conditions are very good at this time. We have nad a constant supply of pure water from I deep wells at this distillery and the Greendale supply is also safe, i We are heavily indebted to the; doctors and nurses sent by the national guard and the Red Cross. The local organization set up by Dr. George Smith functioned smoothly. Coast guardsmen stationed in this area made several trips for drugs and supplies. To these and all other agencies and individuals who gave lime and money and materials we are most grateful. o TOWNSEND WILL CQQNTINym) FROM FAQS pglg) that only 20 deaths had been reported in the entire flood zone and only 511 cases of influenza were existent at present. Food supplies are more than 1 ample, Townsend was told, since donations and unused foodstuffs have stocked relief bases to the peak.

Authority will be divided among garri-i sons to be stationed at strategic points along the Ohio river valley. General Tyndall, reporting to Beware Coughs from common colds That Hang On No matter how many medicines you have tried for your cough, chest cold or bronchial Irritation, you can get relief now with Creomulsion. Serious trouble may be brewing and you cannot afford to take a chance with anything less than Creomuislon, which goes right to the seat of the trouble to aid nature to soothe and heal the Inflamed memi branes as the germ-laden phlegm Is loosened and expelled. Even If other remedies have failed, don’t be discouraged, your druggist is authorized to guarantee Creomulsion and to refund your money if you are not satisfied with results from the very first bottle. Get Creomulsion right now. (Adv.)
