JUMPED FROM M
AG|NARY AUTO
DR.. King, While Studying
the Auto Question Has
Thrilling Experience.

DR.. King has had his mind en-
crossed for the past week with the
excursion to the Methow and Okla
hogan. The committee is having
difficulty in securing sufficient autos
to convey the party, which will go
up the river next Tuesday.
Last night he. had the auto ques-
ton on his mind. He was trying to
solve the problem of how to get the
local owners to volunteer their au-
tos and their services in conveying
the party over the Methow and Okla
hogan. Long after most people had
fallen into the arms of Morpheus
and into the small wee hours of the
night, the doctor lay in his bed,
thinking of the hard-heartedness of
the auto owners. Gradually he lap
sed into Inconsistencies and he was
in John MONEYS machine, autoing
up the fail valley of the Methow
w. T. Clarke's machine was just
ahead and in rounding one of the
curves on a high precipitous road he
could see that collision was in
evitable. Mr.. Mooney had put on
too much speed in his eagerness to
reach the goal and with DR.. King it
was either jump or be hurled hun
dreds of feet below into the raging
Methow river. 1t was trying mo-
ment. He could see the jagged
rocks below and he knew what
collision meant. DR.. King took the
lesser of the two evils and jumped
and he landed in the middle of the
floor, and awoke with a start. The
sudden impact of 225 pounds on
the bedroom floor awoke Mrs. King
and the balance of the night was
spent in amounting DR.. Kings bruised
and lacerater body. Today he can
hardly be around and will carry
with him for weeks the marks of
his nightmare.
