BARGAIN SnOPPJER SECTION OF TITE SANTA MARIA DAILY TIMES THURSDAY, MARCH 23, 1939 jl SERIAL STORY 'MRS. DOC i Sitdowner Begins Sitdown In Jail HORNER Retired Teacher To Live Nearby Santa Barbara Scout Man To Be Neighbor Nipomo will this summer-add a Santa Earbaran to its population. At a meeting of the Santa Barbara school board this week, the resignation of of J. Defray Silvia as principal of the Lincoln school was accepted. Silvia went to Santa Barbara as principal of the school 20 years ago and has remained in that capacity.

Hs is 66 years of age anA has taken advantage of the 65-year retirement age provided by state law, it was explained. Mr. and Mrs. Silvia own a ranch near Nipomo and have for several years been making improvements on the place in preparation for the time when he would retire. Silvia is one of the oldest workers in the Boy Scout movement in Central California.

For many years he has conducted a troop among boys of Lincoln school and two years ago was presented the Silver Beaver, highest award in Scouting, for his work with the boys. British Bomber In Fast Time Capable of Making 295 Miles an Hour, LONDON dUff Details of the fastest bomber yet in service with the Royal Air Force are revealed in a bulletin of the. Society of British Aircraft Constructors. The bomber is the latest modi-' fied version of the Bristol-Blen-heim monoplane, which is in large production in three factories. Hundreds of these formidable planes have been delivered to the squadrons.

Ingenious changes in design give the new Blenheim a top sped of 295 miles an hour, a speed which would be noteworthy in a modern fighter but outstanding in a bomber. This performance is said to have been obtained without sacrifice of essential and basic bombing requirements. Carrying full military load, the modified Blenheim will fly non-stop 1900 miles. Power is supplied by two Bris-tol-Mercury VIII air-cooled engines merged into the wing contour which drive controllable-pitch airscrews. Much of the enhanced performance results from the adaptation of the engines to a special high-grade fuel.

Through bars of a cell he is about to occupy, Meyer Adelman, C. I. O. steel union chief, shakes hands with cellmate as he begins 240-day jail term at Waukegan, 111., for contempt of court in leadership of North Chicagos Fansteel sit-down strike two years ago. Adelman began jail sentence after U.

Oh yes, Ive seen it happen before, and so have you. Think back a few years. Just recall a few of the ideals you carried into your first office at the school. Youve been inspiration to many a student, and your guidance has been responsible for innumerable successful medical careers. But are you as interested in each individual student now as you were ten years ago? You have too many other interests, and whether you want them or not, theyre taking your time away from the work you set out to do.

Thats why you want Alan to share that work. Here Alans work is his and his alone. If he lives he can pass it on to his son, even as his father willed it to him. And theres another factor Emily. In St.

Louis, would she become the dominant personality? Alan is very much in love with her, lets her have her own way as much as he can. Shes been a spoiled child. If she stays here and finds herself, she will share in all her husbands success. In St. Louis But, Doctor, Alans success is guaranteed.

Hell make ten times as much in St. Louis as he ever will in Sumner You cant measure success in paychecks not in this business. But the world does. And so does Emily. Shes not to be blamed.

Only daughter of a wealthy father, she hasnt had much insight into life outside the social circle. By the way, here she is. WHAT big operations have you two been performing? Emily asked laughingly, as she and Mrs. Peterson entered. To tell the truth, Dr.

Peterson answered, weve been working on Alan. I want to make him a professor, but Dr. Farrell wants to keep him here in Sumner. You want Alan to come back to the school? Back to St. Louis? Emilys voice quavered; her throat was tight.

After all, dreams shouldnt come true so abruptly. Oh, that would be wonderful! I hope Alan will think so. By Jove, look at the time. Well have to hurry to make our train. Ill write Alan about the idea, and Im counting on you to help me sell it to him, Emily." Emilys on your side, all right.

Doctor," Farrell said, as he put on his coat. Ill drive you and Mrs. Peterson to the station. Emily dont worry about Alan. Hes probably staying all night.

I wont worry about him now! CO you think youll keep that eight-pound boy around, do you, John? I I I I I 4 Notes Mrs. Martin Garrett and Mrs. Clara Hudson visited the Joe Garrett family in Lompoc. Mr. and Mrs.

And the wifes all right too. We cant ever repay you Doc. Cornin out in this blizzard last night. Nothing, John. That breakfast you just gave me will settle for the blizzard.

And dont forget me if you butcher again. That country sausage was fine. Mrs. Carroll will be all right, Im sure. Have your sister-in-law call me tonight and again tomorrow morning.

Ill be out tomorrow, late, if the roads are open. The cry of the newborn baby came faintly to him as he walked from the house to his car. ibawn, and another life and another day were beginning. He turned into the highway and sent his car hurrying along the snow-sheathed road. He was tired terribly tired but happy.

Always, after every birth, he experienced this same thrill of achievement. When Farrell called it working with God, Alan laughed, but the old man was right. There-was a responsibility, he was sure, entrusted to him to aid in this beginning of life. He worked with the Author of Life then, but when life neared its end, he was on the other side, fighting, fighting to keep alive the spark. It was inexplicable, but satisfying.

'T'HE blizzard was over, but deep snow covered the highway and fields. He was already at the new fill at Prices. As he slowed down to make the turn he thought he could make out tracks leading to the edge of the deep embankment. If those are my tracks, I was luckier than I imagined. Alan whistled as he considered the danger he had escaped, unheeded.

But were those his tracks? For an instant there flashed back into his mind the memory of glaring headlights speeding toward him, of his turning sharply to avoid them. Maybe that car He jammed his brakes, skidded to a stop, and jumped from the car, leaving his motor running. At the edge of the deep embankment he stared down, gasped, and muttered a fervent My God! Below him was the car, a black coupe, upright on its wheels again, but Alan could see scars in the snow where it had turned over at least once. Clambering through the drifts, he pushed his way to the battered car. Snow covered the windshield and windows; he jerked a door open, then stood, transfixed in amazement as the body of a man slipped from the seat into the snow at Alans feet.

Hospital Detail Plans Revealed Location of Roor.us, Type of Service Fireproof construction is to be utilized in the new Sisters hospital to be erected in Santa it was announced today by D. F. Dunster, who is managing the plans for the financial campaign, to open next week. The corridorl he said, will have terrazzo base, rubber-tile floors and acoustic plaster ceilings in order to provide the necessary quiet. In the patients rooms ter-raeco floors may also be used.

The first floor plan calls for the entrance on the diagonal of the street intersection with a circular drive affording traffic from either street. The patients room wings extend from the center unit at angles and parallel with the streets. The lobby extends through the building, meeting the corridor from the ambulance or service entrance. The elevators and the' main stairway are readily accessible from both entrances as well as the corridors, kitchen and other services. The desk is located in such a position as to govern the entrances, elevators, stairs and parlors and is adjacent to the pharmacy and dispensary.

kitchen and general service departments are located to provide for distribution. The other services such as laundry and boiler room extend to the rear and are directly connected with the building by a covered ramp. Delivery of supplies, ambulance entrance and doctors' parking space is approached from the side street. Bnllding Arrangements Yhe north wing of the building i3rgiyenhver to patients rooms affording east or west light in all Planning incorporates a private toilet for every room. jfech room is also provided with i a tocker -closet.

The typical room is approximately 11 feet by 16 which makes them readily adaptable for two beds should this be desired or crowded conditions make it necessary. This wing is controlled at the entrance and by the nurses station around which are grouped the necessary utility rooms. In the east wing and adjacent to the administration and pharmacy is the clinic for out-patients. This department is isolated from the hospital and has a separate entrance and yet is in direct connection with the hospital for con-. trol and convenience.

The remainder of this wing is taken by the dining rooms for the various groups. For New Babies The second floor, north wing is given over to the patients rooms similar to the first floor. The east wing is proposed as the maternity wing, the corridor being closed off by glass doors. The main nursery has entrance under control from private corridor, and the wall to the public corridor has plate glass viewing windows so that relatives and friends may see the babies during visiting hours. The babies bath is in a separate room between the two nurseries so the room temperature can be better controlled.

Glass is provided in the walls so the attendant may have visual control of both nurseries while at work. A separate room is provided for baby isolation, completely removed from the other nurseries and with its own facilities for clothes and bathing. Off the public corridor and adjacent to the operating department is to be a fathers room, where husband's may wait and yet be kept out of the way and out of the corridor, says the architects comment. This feature has proven quite attractive wherever it has been installed, he adds. The remainder of this wing is given over to bedrooms with one four-bed ward.

The Surgery The third floor or surgery occupies only the center portion of the building. It is served by both elevators as well as the main stairs. The operating unit consists of two operating rooms w'ith northwest exposure, with sterilizing room between and serving both operating rooms. The remaining space on one side of the corridor will be taken up by a plaster cast room, cystoscopic, x-ray room with its adjoining control room and film developing dark room, and the laboratory-occupying the corner for advan-tagous lighting. A general utility room, a work room for prepara-1 tion of materials for this depart-1 ment, and a doctors locker and change room on this floor with toilet and shower, complete the plans.

Yesterdays Dr, Peterson reveals lie wants Alan in t. 1-ouls hut Farrell telln him that Alan be longs la Sumner. CHAPTER IV SOLANS life and his future are here, in Sumner, Dr. Farrell continued.

Here among the people who know him and love him like they knew and loved his father before him. Hes more than an ordinary physician hes friend and adviser, a comforter of the old, an inspiration to the young, lies just what his father wanted him to be a country doctor. I know, Dr. Farrell," Dr. Peterson countered.

Alans a remarkably physician a country doctor if yc will but he has what only a few of the real country doctors have -youth. Hes a young man with the ethics, the ideals, even the mannerisms of the best of the old country doctors. But he has What they did not have, knowledge of modern medical science. He has ability, unusual for such a young man. His love of medicine, inherited from his father and nurtured under your own careful guidance, gave him the driving force to lead his classes in school.

But Alan wasnt seeking honors, he was first because he knew more about the subject than any of his fellows. He had to know everything he could learn in school, because Because he owed it to the people who would one day be his patients, Dr. Farrell supplied. Youre quite right. Dr.

Farrell. That's why the school needs him. Hell not only bolster the staff as professor of obstetrics, hell be constantly on hand to guide and inspire students, to help sift the good from those who will never make it. That sympathetic understanding which has been so valuable to him in private practice will be of added worth in molding the life of not only one country doctor but hundreds of them. You admit the importance of the country doctor.

You admit that schools are turning out too lew men of that caliber. With Alan, our school will produce more. Isnt that worth considering? You argue convincingly, Dr. Peterson. But the decision must rest with Alan.

I want him to stay here. Im afraid of what school and routine might do to him. Without daily personal con Orcutt ORCUTT The last meeting of the H. B. club took Diace in Santa Maria in the home of Mrs.
