A physician was by her side, but an operation was necessary to save her life and the nearest surgeon was in North Platte. He had called the surgeon and asked him to hurry to the bedside.

Cut Off by Flood. , Colorado flood waters had forced the South Platte out of its banks and fording the swollen stream was out of the question. The dying woman was Mrs. Anna Jandebaucr, 65, and her physician who needed surgical aid was Dr. J. S. Sitnms. Dr! Simms had called Dr. C. A. Selby in North Platte and begged him to hurry out. Dr. Selby telephoned to every town within a radius of 20 miles. seeking to find a place where the river . might be crossed. At every turn it was the same disheartening story, bridges out and no way of fording the turbulent waters. Just when all hope seemed gone Dr. Selby remembered something. Somewhere he had read how Post master General Will Hays was "hu manizing" the Postoffice department He ran to the telephone and asked C. A. Sluder, superintendent of the North Platte air mail field, to take him across the raging river in an airplane. "Sorry," said Sluder, "but ,; I couldn't without getting authority from higher up." "But the woman is dying," urged the surgeon. ... "In that case," replied Sluder, "we'll send you while we wireless Cheyenne for the authority." Pernrssion Given.

Just as they were about to hop off, Souder ran out with the permis sion for the trip flashed over the wireless from Superintendent Dum phv of the Cheyenne division. Pilot Smith took Dr. Selby on the trio and back safely. The operation was performed and Dr. Simms made the return flight with Smith and Selby. The aged widow will recover. Dr. Selby predicted. "And all because the Postoffice de partment has been humanized," he smiled. . A report of the flight was made "through channels" to the office of Postmaster Hays, who, Washington dispatches state, was probably the happiest man n the national capital that night because his department had saved a woman's life.' - Sell Stock to Complete Hydro-Electric Plant Beatrice, Neb., June 22.
