HARTINGTON - Julia Heimes, eight years of age, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Heimes, is critically ill with scarlet fever. A nurse from the Yankton hospital is caring for the little girl.
Mr. Heimes, who is a well to do farmer, has suffered many reverses in the past few years.
The first came when he was crushed almost to death under a tractor which he was operating on his farm. Then followed a long time spent in bed and many expensive trips to consult specialists. Just when he was beginning to gain strength Mrs. Heimes’ health failed and she was obliged to undergo several operations, and just a year ago, little Julia underwent an operation for appendicitis.
This estimable family has hosts of friends who hope the clouds will soon roll away and that the sun will be all the brighter for the passing clouds.
