DR. C. E. JOHNSON SECURES ASSISTANT

Has Arranged to Have Dr. Leslie Sharper, of Francesville, Game For His Large Practice. Dr. C. E. Johnson, who some time ago entered the national guard medical service and who will go to the front as a member of Company M and will be transferred and commisI sioned as a first lieutenant iij the field hospital corps, has been fortunate to secure Dr. Leslie Sharrer,”~o?~Fran~' eesville, to look after his extensive medical practice during his absence. Dr. Johnson had many cases that he could not leave without providing for their care and not wanting to sacrifice the practice he has established during his almost four years here he made a trip to Francesville Tuesday afternoon and talked the matter over with Dr. Sharrer, who very patriotically offered to make the sacrifice entailed by leaving his own wide practice and coming here to take charge of Dr. Johnson’s practice during his absence, the length of which is now entirely problematical. Dr. Sharrer has for several years been engaged in practice with his father and is well knowln in this county. He has not only a wide general practice in medicine but has also done considerable surgical work and this fact assures ' Johnson that he is leaving his practice in able hands.
