Child Seriously
Burned Sunday
Is Improved
Penny Knox, 5, daughtetr of
Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Knox of
Brownfield, is said to be in a
slightly improved condition to-
day at Medical and Surgical
hospital where she was taken
Sunday morning for treatment
of serious burns.
She was burned early Sunday
when her dress became ignited
by a lighted candle.
Mr. and Mrs. Knox and their
four children were visiting at
the farm of Mr. and Mrs. W. C.
Henley, about six miles north of
Saint Jo when the accident hap-
pened.
The Knox family had been
sleeping in a cabin at the farm
and the parents went to the Hen-
ley house nearby before break-
fast Sunday, leaving all of the
children asleep.
After awakening the children
located some matches and a can-
dle and were playing with them
when Penny backed into a can-
dle, igniting her dress.

slides will be supplemented by
others taken by members of his
1951 tour.
Dr. DeGroot is being sponsored
here by the Young Adults class
of the church. There will be no
admission, but an offering will
be collected. Proceeds from the
offering will be used to help de-
fray the expenses of a young
English minister who plans to
enter Texas Christian as a stu-
dent in July.
Dr. DeGroot is donating his
time and paying his own expens-
es to conduct the lectures
throughout the state to help
raise money for the English
youth’s education. English law
permits a traveller to take only
$25 out of the country.
Following the lecture, an in-
formal reception will be held in
the church for those attending.
The Rev. H. Dan Morgan, min-
ister, is inviting the public to at-
tend.
