Young Mother Dies After Taking Lysol Mrs. Thelma Hobbs: Die on Monday. Mrs. Thelma Hobbs, 35 years of age, died on Monday at her home as the result of consuming the contents of a bottle of Lysol. She was apparently in normal frame of mind when her husband went to work, although she had lately bzen in ill health. When he returned he found her ill. Shortly after she died. Desperte efforts were made by Dr. E. A. F. Day to revive the woman but the poison had taken effect before he arâ€" rived on the scene and his efforts were fruitless. Coroner H. E. Montgomery said that there would not be any jury inquest. Both he and the police were convinced that it was a case of death from drinkâ€" ing Lysol. When Mr. Hobbs returned from work and found his wife ill he wanted to call a doctor but she said that she would be all right and dissuaded him against it. However, when she showed signs of lapsing into unconsciousness he did call a physician. The deceased woman leaves four children, all of them quite young. Her home was at 92 Commercial avenue. The body was removed to Walker‘s Undertaking Parkours after the death.

Nobody Seems to be Safe These Days in Germany (St. Thomas Timesâ€"Journ@l) Germany does not seem to be a safe place for anybody to live in. What is happening to the Jews is worldâ€"wide knowledge. Members of the Roman Catholic faith have been "cracked down" on for vyears. Two cardinals have recently been publicly attacked and the interâ€" iors of churches wrecked. Protestants are not immune either. Pastor Neismoeller is still languishing in a camp somewhere. Protestant churches have been ordered to eliminâ€" ate the name of Jehova and of the proâ€" phets wherever they are displayed in churches and books. Members C are not safe the other. It; is very doubtful that the Fuehrer himself feels safe. He must know that his dictatorial methods are building up T K a cumulatnve opposition to him and lives in fear that one day he will be toppled from his horse; perhaps by violent methods.
