From September 1913 Meredith, the 5-yearold son of Dr. and Mrs.
E.A. Evans, was seriously injured last Friday morning. Dr. and Mrs.
Evans left for Colorado on Wednesday, and their two little boys, Farris and Meredith, were taken to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Dave Baker while their parents were away. The boys were out playing when Meredith climbed up on a workbench and a heavy anvil and vice pulled loose from the wood and fell on him, causing an oblique fracture of the upper third of the left femur bone. Dr. Farris was called to attend to the injured boy.
Milton: John Wise and family were up from Conway Springs Sunday to spend the day with Mrs. Wise’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. A.E. Martin.
Miss Anita Mummey spent Sunday with the Oscar Smith family. T.J.
Burfird returned from Arkansas the first of the week. John Cox was up from Conway Springs Monday and had to have Howard Duncan come out and repair his car before he could get home.
Viola: Mrs. Al North and sons Wayne and Gordon went to Gas, Kans., Friday to visit her mother, Mrs.
Bowen. Charles Dalbom, Bert Averill, Joe Porter, and George Chancel all went to Wichita Friday in the Dalbom car. Averill bought a new reo car and got as far as Goddard with it when it broke down. Mr. Dalbom had to go after it. Miss Alimina Haworth came home from a delightful visit with friends at Protection. Miss Elliot came Saturday morning to be ready to fill her position in the fifth, seventh, and eighth grades at the Viola school.
