There were two deaths in this section Tuesday morning, both from diphtheria. A 10-year-old daughter of Henry Stahl and wife, who live on route 2, near Dubina, and Ernest, the 10-year-son of Fritz Beken, Sr., and wife who live a few miles southeast of town, were the victims. To the grief-stricken familes the heartfelt sympathy of everybody goes out, in the loss of their bright and beloved children. May the good Father above comfort and console them in their bereavement, is our sincere wish.
