Dr. John Bill Oman,
(Continued from page 1)
suit of accidents involving the
animal, or intestinal problems.
He is usually kept" pretty busy"
helping deliver puppies. It
seems from Thanksgiving until
well into the Spring is when
most puppies are born.
“Cats and horses usually de-
liver alone with no trouble, and
a healthy dog should deliver
in three to four hours," he
says, “ howev er, any tim e long,
er than this could mean trou-
ble."
According to Doctor Oman,
his most unusual cases are
the chinchillas owned by Mr.
and Mrs. Troy Atkins and a
bobc?5i belonging to Mr. and
Mrs. Hchard Bennett.
*'I had studied about chin,
chillas, but had never exam*
ined one before seeing these,"
he stated. “And the bobcat,
Tabby, is also very interesting.
We removed her sharp teeth,
took off her claws, and gave
her shots."
Doctor Oman and his wife,
June, have two pets of their
own, a German terrier dog
named Hilda and a cat, called
Tiger. At one time they tried
their hand at raising fish, but
found this hobby could run into
a lot of work. Since they don't
have a lot of spare time, they
gave up this project.
When the Omans are able to
leave town, which is about four
or five times a year, they love
to water ski and fish. Mrs.
Oman also enjoys gardening.

mem^2r of Baylor Chamber of
Comi^rce and was recently

Congratulations
The Winkler County News
wishes to extend congratula-
tions to the following parents
whose baby was born in Me-
morial Hospital:
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Wall,
Kermlt, a daughter born March
24.
Herbert Hoover was the first
President of the United States
to b : ejected from a state west
of thtriviississippi River.
Presently, the couple is con.
templating joining abridge club.
They have been playing with
friends and also have been in.
troduced to duplicate bridge,
which they find very entertain,
ing.
Doctor Oman has the back-
ground one would expect of
a successful Doctor of Veter-
inary Medicine. He was born
and reared on a ranch at Stam-
ford. There he cared for pets
and animals of his own, show-
ing champion lambs and steers
at Fort Worth, Abilene and
Houston Fat Stock Shows.
In June, before he was grad-
uated in August, 1965, from
Texas A & M University, Doc-
tor Oman married his wife,
who is also from Stamford.
She is a graduate of McMurry
College at Abilene, and teaches
a second grade remedial group
at Austin Elementary in Odessa.
The affable Kermit doctor
said, “I suppose I’ve met the
majority of pet owners here
and they are very friendly, nice
people. I enjoy working in Ker-
mit."
And to you, Doctor John Bill,
we’re happy to have you here
—and that goes double for our
pets.

pastor of the 1,650-member

7-8 p.m. conferences.
The 1967 “family witness”
materials will be introduced
in a meeting of all pastors,
music and education directors
and other staff members in the
church leadership conference.
This period also will be given
to a study of church budgets,
money management and tithes,
will-making and estate plan-
ning.
In a simultaneous session,
individuals and family groups
will examine the matter of
Christian witness in spending,
giving and ownership. Rev. L.

erator and pastor of the W est

vention filmstrip “The Money
