      Funeral Services Held for Dr. Dora R. Schuyler
      Funeral services for Dr. Dora R. Schuyler, a physician here for many years, were held yesterday at Collier undertaking establishment, 10123 St. Charles road, St. Ann. Burial was in Oak Grove Cemetery.
      Dr. Schuyler, 82 years old, died Wednesday at Penn's Nursing Home, 4411 Carson Road, Berkeley, where she had been a patient for eight years. A graduate of Washington University School of Medicine in 1909, she set up practice in St. Louis. Her work here was interrupted in World Was I when she was a Government physician at the DuPont powder plant in Nashville, Tenn.
      In the 1920s, she again practiced in Nashville for a few years. Ill health forced her retirement in the mid 1940s. Surviving are two sisters, Mrs Anna Fran of Nashville and Mrs, Sarah Frank of St. Louis.
