In conclusion, we hnve served the
! city as health officer for the past 12
' years. It has been our purpose to pro-
I tect the eity ngainst infectious diseases
, to the best o f our ability and I am free
to say tlmt no eity in the state has been
as free from infectious diseases the past
few years as the city of Cottage Grove.
We gave the public fair warning
through the press, with posters and
daily talks of the great danger we were
in from the dreaded disease, influenza.
Our orders nnd our warnings were to n
considerable extent disregarded and, lo,
the sail result.
I will ask you to only remember what
little good I have rendered as city
health officer. I have given the most
of my time to the work o f the office.

MRS. ROOT IS CLOSE TO THE
CENTURY MARK AT
TIME OF DEATH
Sutherlin Sun: Mrs. Levina McCall
Root died at the home o f her daughter,
Mrs. Floyd Lawson, in Sutherlin, at 1
o ’colck u. m. on December 20, 1918, aged
96 years, 10 months and 7 days, death
being due to natural causes incident to
old age.
She was born in Sheridan, Ohio, on
February 13, 1822, and in 1*40 wras mar­
ried to Gordon Root, of Ohio. A short
time after marriage she accompanied
her husband to Minnesota, thence to
Washington and later to Cottage Grove,
Oregon, where her husband died in 1905.
Ijiter she went to Alberta, Canada,
where she made her home with her
daughter, Mrs. Floyd l^twson, and
where she resided six years. She ac­
companied the Lawson family to Ore­
gon on their return here several years
ago, and has since made her home with
the family. The remains will be taken
to Cottage Grove for interment beside
the body o f her husband.
Besides her daughter, she leaves one
son, Clayton J. Root, of Rice, Wash. A
sad feature in connection with the dunth
is that Mrs. Lawson, the daughter with
whom Mrs. Root had resided for so
many years, is critically ill and does
not know of her mother's death, which
occurred in a room adjoining the ono
Mrs. Lawson occupies. Mrs. Lawson is
77 years old.

George Kibby, son o f Mr. and Mrs.
H. H. Kibby, o f Blue Mountain, writer
of a narrow escape from death which
he experienced when 10 others of the
crew o f the Brooklyn died as the result
of spontaneous combustion o f coal gas,
28 others being injured. Mr. Kibby wns
in the engine room' and escaped without
injury.
Chicken Thief Leaves Lighted Match.
The George Atkinson chicken coop was
destroyed by fire at ubont 6 o ’clock
Monday morning, the flames being dis­
covered just in the nick o f time by a
telephone girl on her way home. Mr.
Atkinson thinks the flames resulted
from a lighted mutch dropped by some­
one who was getting a sample o f his
chickens.

eral months ago, or in Eugene.

plans to erect a mill o f about 100,000
feet capacity nnd will employ between
150 and 200 men.
