BRADY IN TART REPLY
TO KNIGHT'S CRITICISM
Doctor Attacked for Treatment
of Child Intimates Cor
oner Is Ignorant
Dr. Franklin P. Brady, surgeomln-chlef
0 the Roosevelt Hospital, today replied
to Coroner Knight's Indignant criticism
of tho hospital In tho case qf Frank Hor
vatl'r. of 1120 North Bodlne Btrcet. a
3-year-old boy, who ued at the hospital
Wednesday after an .operation on his
skull. It was fraotiujod ln,tho 47th auto
mobile killing of tho year.
"Having nothing to hide, wo invito tho
'Investigation' which tho Coroner prom
ised." tleclared Doctor Brady, who 'Is art
eminent brain surgoon. "Everything that
could bo done for the child was .done. Tho
ense wna under my personal charge from
the time tho child was brought to the
hospital."
Coroner Knight, ho Bald, .seemed very
much concerned because the boy was re
moved to the Medlco-Chlrurglcnl Hospital
for nn X-ray examination, nnd back again
In an automoblleiiefore the operation.
"Ho asks if we have an ambulance."
lie continued. "It was Btandlmr In .front
of the hospital at the time.. Wo used nn
automobile so that Doctor Boston, tho In
terne, could carry the child In his arms,
That affords smoother riding than does
an ambulance We have no X-ray.
"Tho trip Itself made no difference. It
was - Impossible to operate at ,once, be
cause the child was suffering from shock.
We had to wait. The trip required 30
mUiutes. It had no effect on the child,
who wan unconscious. As joon ns I Judged
the psychological moment had coine I
operate, although I realized that the
chances for recovery (were almost nil.
The back of the brain was a pulp.
"Persons who know nothing nbout hos
pitals or surgery are the first to criticise.
They expect too much."
Attaches of the hospital today expressed
much Indignation over tho Coroner's crit
icism as they rallied Doctor Brady's
support. No surgeon Is moro conscien
tious than he, they said. They pointed to
his record und cited a recent case of a
successful . ope rat Jon on u man, whose
skull had. been crushed by a chair in a
brawl. The chances against his recovery
were SOOOto 1, they said.
The Colonol'3 wife, daughter nnd
daughter-in-law will march in
ilic women's section of the big
Preparedness parade" in 'New
York tomorrow.

on its last Day !

cording to established standards, every last one
of these Suits in' this One Week Sale at the
Uniform Price of $15, would cost you $25, $22.50
V$20!
CJ Their $15 price today is due to the kind of
corner a big store like Perry's is occasionally
able to force in the woolen market! But you
should worry. It's all grist that comes to your
mill only be sure not to let the water flow past
before you get to grinding!
9$ We have these Intensified .Value Suits of $25,
$22.50 and $20 quality to offer you at the One
Uniform Price of $15, because we acted on the
spur of the moment months ago, when most
buyers of woolens were in a panic ! We wouldn't
take no for an answer, so we got together a
limited quantity of splendid fabrics such as you
may see in any store in Suits marked $25, $22.50
and $20 and worth those prices under any and
all ordinary circumstances! We cut them up
into sack coat Suits, Norfolk and belted-back
Suits styles for Juniors and Styles for Seniors
all to sell during this One Week Only at the
One Uniform Price
' $15
J Now what's your answer?- We
made a success of our side of the story

adopting the same policy, for Saturday,
closing time, sees the end of this Sale.
