A. v. Lindell, assistant cashier of the
Shawnee State bank, was the guest
recently Of George Fiederling of Sta
ton - at his home On Seward ave-
nue.. Mr. Lindell says the Fiederling
home may be on Seward avenue, but
according to his estimation 1t is two
miles beyond Tecumseh. AS Mr.. Lin
dell made the trip on his bicycle and
when coming home had the misfor-
tune to break his wheel, shattering the
rim of the front wheel so com pleteiy
that he had TO walk most of the entire
distance and lead his bicycle, this may
account for his error of judgment in
regard TO the distance
