DUES ASKED OF GUY
FIB EFFECTS OF FLU
SEMINOLE OKLAMrs Addle
Womack thinks the city of Semi-
nole should pay her 5075 damages
because she says It is the cause of
her being susceptible to colds
She filed a damage suit for that
amount against the city and cited
the following events to prove my
claim
Municipal workmen dug a ditch
across the back lot of her home
She alleges the workers broke a
gas line running to her home and
that she was without heat for 2Vt
days
Mrs Womack 44 contends that
she contracted Influenza during the
period the gas line was broken This
caused her the alleges to become
susceptible to exposure
It may seem strange to you
that my technician or any
good technician can Xray the
large intestine and tell by the
picture if there is any indica-
tion of fje strain rheuma-
tism liver heart or any dis-
ability of any of the vital
organs of the body If she fail a
to do this the Xray picture
will not cost you one centt
