SON OF L. ROWLAND PARALYSIS VICTIM
Little 9 Year Old Son Taken Friday. Dies Monday Evening.

Little Earl Rowland, the 9 year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Rowland passed away
at 
the hospital in Grand Rapids Monday evening of what is thought to have been
infantile 
paralysis.

The little fellow was taken ill on Friday in what appeared to be a slight cold. The
usual 
treatments for cold were administered and then a doctor called, who advised hospital

treatment. The child had had his tonsils removed and had had an operation for
adenoids 
recently. It is thought by some that perhaps the child was not in the best of health
and was 
therefore more susceptible to the disease.

The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon at 5 o'clock at the home. He leaves besides
his 
parents, a sister, Edith, 12 years-old, and a little brother, Gerald of four years.
Earl was a 
regular Sunday school attendant, and was a favorite with his mates and teachers. He

attended the Mills school.

The Mills school and the Clarksville school are both closed. A little son of Herbert
Geiger is 
in the hospital with the trouble. These arte the only cases reported.
