Five Year Old Girl Saves
Brother From Drowning
Little Anna Mary Hoover's five-
year-old brain worked fast Thursday
afternoon, when her brother Paul,
three,%ost his balance and fell into the
watering trough, on the farm of their
parents, Mr. and Mrs Charles Hoover,
Elizabethtown, R. D. 2.
Instead of losing her wits or valu-
able time in running for help, she
leaned over the edge of the trough and
seized her brother’s clothing with both
hands, gave a mighty heave and pulled
him to the top.
It was a matter of only a few back-
breaking tugs to get him safely over
the edge of the tank, in which the
water was three feet deep. Then she
ran to the house and told her mother.
Mrs. Hoover soon resusciated her
son, who had swallowed & quantity of
water. A few hours later he was ap-
narently none the worse for his near-
drowning.

munity Exhibit here last week but
we feel free in saying that thousands
attended. The town was crowded
every afternoon and especially all
three evenings because we had the
best show ever held in this town.
The entire committee in charge to
the man deserves credit.
Special praise was given the corn
display by County Farm Agent F. S.
Bucher and J. Clarence Garber, the
chairman of the exhibit. It contained
more than 1,000 ears.
Ninety exhibitors. including many
children in the 4 H corn club spon-
sored by the Lancaster Chamber of
Commerce, have made entries. The
thirty ear exhibitors alone number 17
individuals. Competition was excep-
tionally keen in this division.
Another outstanding display at the
exhibit was the fruit display, in
charge of Elmer R. Snyder. Canned
goods, flowers and fancy work in the
home products division were large
while the total entries exceed other
years.
