The delicate operation is regarded as an exceptionally brilliant piece of work and it is now reported that the patient will live and some im- provement will be, shown in her condition. ‘

Early Operation

"I am afraid that I was too late to eliminate the trollble entirely," stated Dr. Groves to The Telegram “but there. undoubtedly will be some improvement in her condi- tlon. l um sure this operation will prove successful in the future and believe there shouldvbe no difficul- ty at all in eliminating paralysis in such cases if the operation should be performed within, say,

day by Dr. W. A. Groves, who lnstslx hours after the stroke to bo a

Dr. Grave's pointed out that the necessity. for prompt action after the stroke is follnd in the fact that the operation should be performed before the blood has opportunity

to clot llrinly.

Goodyear tires are balanced.
