WINTERS MUST LOSE HIS ARM TO SAVE LIFE

The right arm of Scott Winters, second sergeant of police, is to be amputated at the shoulder this afternoon at Reid " hospital: It is an emergency operation and doubts have been expressed as to his ability to survive the ordeal because of his

weakened condition. Attending phy

sicians state that the only chance to save his life depends upon the success of the operation. Following an attack of pneumonia.

complicated by acute heart trouble, a

blood clot' formed in the artery of

winters' right arm, above .the elbow, deadening all the lower part of the arm. To overcome the effects of this clot an amputation is necessary. The

operation was delayed for several days hoping that Winters would gain

more strength, but he grew weaker in stead.

' Winters for several days has been

insisting upon the amputation. He realizes the seriousness of his condition but has gazed upon a menacing

fate with a smiling face and wita jokes

for his friends. Today he expressed a

desire to see his old comrades on the

force and many of the officers called

upon him at the hospital. He referred to the operation as a ."gambler's

cbance" and said he was ready to

take the risk, the success of which

means possible recovery, failure, cer iain death. . Winters is one of the veteran mem

brs of the police department and has

a splendid rpeord for efficiency, cool

' judgment and fearless performance of

his duties.

1 Says you save $5 In an hour by I t dry cleaning everything with gasoline. Dry cleaning at home is just as simple as laundering. Any woman can clean five dollars' worth in fifteen minutes at little cost bygetting from the drug store two ounces of solvlte

and put this in two gallons of gasoline, where it quickly dissolves. Then immerse articles to be cleaned; rub a little and in a few moments the gasoline evaporates and the articles look bright and fresh as new. You can dry clean silk waists, dresses, coats, ribbons, kid gloves, satin shoes, evening slippers, shawls, belts, yokes, furs, boas, muffs, neckties, lawns, dimity and chiffon dresses draperies, fine laces, lace curtains, woolen garments, in fact, any and everything that would be ruined by soap and water as dry cleaning doesn't fade, shrink of wrinkle, making pressing unnecessary. Your grocer or any garage will supply the gasoline and you can obtain two ounces of solvite at the drug store, which is simply a gasoline soap. Then a wash boi-ier or large dishpan completes your dry cleaning outfit. As gasoline is very inflammable be sure to do your dry cleaning out of doors, or in a room away from fire or flame, with the windows left open. Adv.
