Little Girl Victim of Diphtheria

Florence, nine year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Warren Huffman, died on last Wednesday from that dreaded enemy of child life, diphtheria.

The little girl was a pupil in room number two, south ward and two other cases have broken out among the pupils of that room, a little son in the Marion Banks family and in Lee Pursell's family.

The school room has been thoroughly fumigated and school temporarily suspended in that room and it is not believed that there will be any further spread of that disease.
