Thursday, February 28, l924

Mr. E. Wright, of Chicago, who was to bring a number of asylum children to Leon last Friday, disappointed a number of people who called to adopt children, owing to the fact that scarlet fever had broken out at the asylum and the children, of course, could not be brought here. Mr. Wright was here and made arrangements for homes for a number of children who will be brought here after all danger from scarlet fever is over.
