I been made, one man paying fine of $2.31 and the other having his case continued, so that it is not settled yet. l From observations made while the policemen were on duty it would ap- pear that the fault most prevalent l with Norwich drivers is in cutting across to the wrong side of the street When about to round a corner. This Is shown in drivers coming along Main street from the west and about to turn up into Broadway. They would travel on the right hand side of the street as they approached the corner,s but in turning into Broadway would be more than likely to cut short across so as to bring them on to the left side of Broadway. directly in position to meet another team head-on if it should be coming down Broadway to make the same corner.
 In the same way at Young's corner l drivers coming down Franklin street
 to round the corner on the way tow ards the east will swing in short so that they would also be in position to run into team coming around the corner the opposite way.
 Keep to the right on the corners
 seems to be one important rule to be impressed upon the drivers of Nor Wich.

Searching for Hidden win.

The romantic story of a hidden will
is ~arousing keen interest in the neigh
borhood of Bradley Fold, a little vii
lage three miles from Bolton, Lanca-
shire, England. Search for the mis-
sing document is being made by a
woman from Gunnersbury, London.
She believes that IL she succeeds in
her quest. she will become entitled to
a valuable estate. The search was
prompted originally by statements
made by a medium at a spiritualistic
seance. The will is supposed to be
concealed in a wall sunk in a shed
which has been bricked up for many
years. It formed a cellar to an old
house. The London searcher's ances.
tor, John Bradley. who married his
housekeeper, was known to possess
great wealth. No will could be found
after his death.

"a Nan Ny Son."

The fellow who acquires the physi-

to manage a mule; who learns to love
an honest furrow; who gets the moral
courage to kill grass, in spite of the
shade trees that invite him, and who
can be patient, realizing that he is be-
coming, day by day, a real man, has
a thousand things more to thank God
for than the fellow who hasn't the
physical strength to carry a walking
