It was reported Tuesday that RAY HARDISTY, who has spinal meningitis, is getting along as well as could be expected, with some chance of his recovery. It will be remembered that his father and step-sister died April 10. Ray took sick on his return from attending the funeral of his sister (step-sister). There is considerable excitement in this neighborhood regarding the dread disease, but the attending physician thinks he has it under control.
