4>0G CAMPAIGN
IS REQUESTED
Eradication of Rabies Is
Asked by Fort Brown
Army Officials
Cooperation ol civil health au- i
thorities of Brownsville has been
requested by Fort Brown medical
department to aid in the eradica
tion of does infected with rabies,
according to a letter from Will C.
Griffin, D. V. M , captain of veteri
nary corps of Fort Brown.
During the past year eight cases
of rabies affecting dogs have been
presented to the Fort Brown hos
pital. and with the exception of
three cases, all have been from the
city of Brownsville.
“Two of your citizens have been
bitten and the child and another
citizen are now undergoing treat
ment,” Captain Griffin says in his
letter.
Existing army regulations call
for the close cooperation of the
Army medical department with the j
civil health authorities, and the I
prompt notification of these offi- |
cials upon the discovery of any j
communicable disease which is |
^likely to become an epidemic in
Ml heir vicinity, it was explained. The ;
idea of such notifications is that
proper steps be taken in order to |
eradicate the disease and adopt
such control measures as are
necessary.
Owing to the prevalence of this
camne disease in this locality and
the necessity of its eradication,
drastic steps should be taken, the
local army physician pointed out.
Vaccination of dogs has been re
quested for protection, and state
# laws now exist which call for such
vaccination of every dog in a vicin
ity in which rabies are known to be
present,
“There are various groups of peo
ple in other sections of our coun
try that are grasping every oppor
tunity to spread the news of exist
ence of dreaded animal communi
cable diseases in the Valiev and
communicate siich information to
prospective residents of its exist
ence,” Capt. Griffin continued.
Owners of dogs which are being
treated are Henrietta Price. S. A.
Nietert and J. L. Kowalski Labor
atory results received on th» Nci
tert and Kowalski cases show that
the persons were bitten and are
undergoing treatment now.

OBSERVE BUSINESS ANNIVERSARY
NICK H. McCARTY,
Vice-Pres. and General Manager.
Nick McCarty, energetic founder
of the Valley Jitney Jungle stores,
tomorrow with employees of that
organization will celebrate the third
anniversary of this Valley business.
Here is the story now being told:
Three years ago Nick H. McCarty
and one man came to the Valleyii
and opened their first Jitney Jungle
store. The original investment was
about $15,000 and today four busy
Jitney-Jungle stores with a person
nel of thirty capable well-trained
EDINBURG MAN
ESCAPES DEATH
FREDERICKSBURG. Oct. 9—W
—Death looked at Coy Tisdell, 28
year-old flyer of Edinburg, yester
day. and decided to let him live
Tisdell. flying a light, open-cockpit
airplane in which he had made r
forced landing on the fair ground:
here, was attempting a short take
ofl when the plane failed to gain
altitude and caught in a web of
high tension electrical wires.
Thousands of volts of electricity
crackled with blinding flashes
about is plane for a few moments.
The short circuit which was created
caused an automatic switch at tnc
plant to shut off the current.
Tisdell remained quietly in the
plane until rescued by linemen. He
was unharmed.
Tlsdell and Gus Manhart, also
ot Edinburg and owner of the
plane, were flying from Brownwood
to San Antonio when >hey decided
to land here at the fair grounds,
fearing the plane's gasoline supply
was low. Then they learned that
a regular landing field was only
two miles distant.
Manhart remained on the ground
in order to lighten the plane and
Tisdell was attempting a tak^-of!
from the short runway when the
accident occurred.
Glass is transparent because its
molecular structure is such that it
I>crmits the light rays to pass
through without regular defusion of
the light.
WALTER GALLOWAY,
C:z. Treas. and Ass t. Gen. Mgr.
grocery and market men attest the
popularity of this institution which
supplies the necessities of life dally
to thousands of Valley families. Jit
ney-Jungle also maintains its own
warehouse and their investment to
day totals over $75,000.
The remarkable growth of this
popular grocery system can be at
tributed to the fact that Valley fam
ilies appreciate their quality food
stuffs carried in Jitney-Jungle
stores.
Nick McCarty and every member
of the Jitney-Jungle organization
are loyal Valley boosters. Last year
the Jitney-Jungle stores featured a
demonstration of Valley products in
ail their stores and Valley grown
products are always given prefer
ence over products offered from the
other sections of the country as
Nick McCarty and all of his store
managers sincerely believe that the
vegetables and fruit produced in our
Valley are superior to any other
brands consistent with prices offer
ed
Celebrating their third anniver
sary in the Valley, all four of the
Jitney-Jungle stores located In Har
lingen. San Benito. Brownsville and
McAllen, will stage a six-day $50,000
anniversary sale beginning Satur
day. October 11, ending Friday, Oc
tober 17.
Thrifty-minded women of the
Valley will find this announcement
in Friday afternoon's Brownsville
Herald.
