Dear Sin—£1 have carefully read

of the Golden Hill property as a

that he errs ln'a number of partit-
ulurs.
This site. he states. is only half a.
dozen blocks from the center of the
Franklin Sclt'ool district. This eli-
minates entirely the Third District
(which is promised a. junior high
school at some Indcflrfite date .‘n the
distant future) and also .ttowaymn.
He next. states that. the center of
population for the Franklin School
District is moving North and West.
This is far from tho-truthds anyone
l can ascertain by looking a: the new
residential construction at the
l Southern end of the (.‘ity.~or by in-
quiring at. the Buildings inspe;tor's
office for chart of new construction.
which he prepart’v‘for one of the
members. but which it was lcund in-
advisable for- the Committee to pub-

To arrive. at what may tie a. future

Operation Occu-
pies Four and a half
Minuth 0 ct o r
WarnsMothers
PHILADELPHIA; Jan. 2l.-—A
carpet tack was removed yesterday
from the lung of Cletus Moore. 8
months old. of St. Louis.
Dr. vaealier Jackson. who per-
formed the operation at the Univer—
sity of Pennsylvania hospital, said
that unless unexpected complica-
tion developed the baby would be
restored in full health to its pa:-
euts. Mr. and Mrs. Lucius Moore. in
about a. week. Dr. Jackson used a
bronchoscope of his own invention
to remove the tack.
The operation required only four
and. one-half minutes. After the
tack. which was
an inch long. had been removal :1 .-
suction tube was inserted and the:
lung drained. Five minutes later;
the baby was sleeping peacefully.
and took its bottle regularly. 5

Clerf. .The instrument used is a_
tube about the size of a. straw. in.
ted with lenses and with an electric‘l
bulb at the end. Inside the bron-
choacope were placed a pair of tack
forceps designed by Dr. Tucker.
After being inserted through the
bronchial tubes into the lungs the
light was turned on in the electric
bulb. revealing the tack. It rc-
qulred only a. moment to fasten the g
forceps around it; and gently lift it
out.
Mrs. Lela. A. Parrish. who brought
the baby here from St. Louis- on
funds provided by a. church organ-
ization of’tbat city. was overjoyed
at the outcome of the operation.
Dr. Jackson warned parents
against leaving tack.- and pins with-
in reach of babies. Ninety per cent.
of such accidents as swallowing pins
and getting other foreign bodies into
the air and food passagts. ue said.
were the result of carelessness. Hr.-
added:
”When a. baby is born." said Dr.
Jackson. “its mind is a-‘p-ctcly
blank: it has not the sex“
or sight. and the only way it. can
test what things are is by putting
them in its mouth. That is all the
more reason why parents should ex-
ercise the utmost care in prevent—
ing children from putting inedible
substances in the mouth."
