Mr.. G. G. Sale slipped on a banana
peel on the pavement while walking
in the city Wednesday afternoon and
broke his ankle bone and the bone
above. DR.. J, NJ. KILLER set the brok-
en- bones and Mr.. Sale is getting along
nicely under the treatment Of DR..

Of the accident and hope that he will
soon be out again. Anybody who
throws banana Feelings on the side
walks ought to be punished severely.
