TRANSFUSION OF
BLOOD BY SISTER
WILL SAVE LIFE
Girl Frightfully Cut
by Broken Bottle
BROUGHT TO HOSPITAL
Quick Action by Doctors
and Sacrifice of Sister
DefeaU Death
A successful blood transfusion
performed at the Klamath Valley,
hospital Sunday undoubtedly saved
the life of 20-year-old Bessie Tall-
man, whose arm had been fright
fully gashed in a bottle washing ma
chine at McKendree's Lost River
dairy. Mis Margaret Tallman, sis
ter of the injured girl played the
heroic role at the hospital surgery.
Resale Tallman was brought to
thb :(lamath Valley hospital at noon
Sunday dying from loss of blood.
She was accompanied by her sis
ter Margaret on the trip to Klam
ath Falls. It was found by attend
ing physicians that blood transfusion
would be necessary. At the hospital
Margaret volunteered the blood and
after a quick test she was taken
into the operating room where the
transfusion was made. At a late
hour last night both Bessie and her
sister were resting easily.
It was learned from Mrs. McKen
dree last night -that while wasuing
milk bottles in the dairy one of the
bottles slipped Into the machinery,
dragging Bessie's arm into the
whirling mass of broken glass.
Hearing the girl's, screams several
employes of the dairy ran into the
wash room and found her lying on
the floor In an unconscious condi
tion, her arm dreadfully gashed, a
mangled mass of flesh and blood.
"It was feared at first, that the
girl would lose her arm, and there
was danger of death from shock and
loss of blood as well, but the rapid
transfusion made from her sister
has given her a new lease on life
and prospect for her recovery are
very favorable," said attendants
last night.

Number Delay Is
Causing Mix-Up
Klamath residents have been re
miss about ordering new street
numbers. And now Klamath has a
lot of numbers, several hundreds
in some block. ,
Attention to this state of affairs
was brought to the city council last
night by Fire Chief Keith Ambrose.
Recently the fire department an
swered, to a call sent In from one
number, but it proved to be several
blocks up the street.
More confusion Is to result short
ly. There will be many letters that
the post office will fail to get deliv
ered promptly because ot the faulty
numbering.
Properety owners have until May
1 to change their numbers. After
which they will be penalized. They
can buy the new numbers and put
them on or they can hare someone
else go to the trouble for fifty cents.

exploits of one Mrs. Faye McCro

ploits "In" Klamath county during
the past ten days have wasted
great slathers of printer's ink.
"There is only one person In
Klamath county who cares a hang

"that person Is a local taxi line
owner whose car and driver, minus
the owner's consent, Is probably
scorching the road miles from here,

when the facts of the case are we
have no cause for the woman's
