4 SUNDAY CASUALTY
President Adams, of Winsted B. M. A.,
 Has Exciting Auto Trip.


 The following graphic description of Il Sunday Winsted cusAaltl comes by way of special correspondence. The photographs .and drawings accompany ing the article are omitted for lack of space:
 MT. John B. Adams, president of the Winsted Business Men Association, with Messrs. Fl. l.. Roberts and F. Nj. Platt, went away sunday in MT. Adams's new auto, looking over some new prospects for the Minst.d Episco- pal church. On the return trip his first experience of tire trouble was vis- ited upon him. He had reached point midway between two dry towns in the Unionville section, aud tlaL a blow out, which of course, being the first in his experience, assumed the aspect of a serious disaster and John turned very solemn. Some of his companions iocu- larly assert that he lost his head, which is a good-sized one aud usually level.
 He decided that the only thing to be done vas to send for a relief expedition. Accordingly he walked couple of miles to the nearest telephone and called up Roscoe Benjamin, instructinR him to send his wreckiug car and crew to the spot, IS miles distant, in IS minutes, with new set of tires, tubes, carburettor, generator, steering gear and ball-bearing do-funny. Roscoe sent along his emergency car, which took us passengers Mir. +. M. Phelps and wife. When they finally arrived at the scene of disaster John remarked that he hadn't sent for crowd of spectators, and explicitly informed the delegation that this was "the last time he would ever 20 to church on Sunday in an automobile. He ignored the innocent query, us to which day he would go to church. He was all dressed up in his new $55 summer suit, which by this time didn't look the price. His collar had wilted, along with his usual serene temper, and he was in no fool ing mood. He had stopped his car ont in the hot sun, instead of under the shade-trees nearby.
 The wrecking crew investigated and found that the whole trouble was a small nail that had caught in the shoe and caused all the mischief The puncture was repaired in iiffy, and John informed the crowd that he would lead the parade home On his arrival Ut Benjamin's auto shop he was in- formed that the big Fairbanks Morse Company, which had been up to the head of the lake, was ditched in such a way us to block the entrance to tho Adams cottage, and this neoessitated mile walk to the head of the lake, where he rented boat to sail him home.
 Mrs. Adams says, No more Sundays away from home for John, and John says he doesn't care.

"The Romancers, which is to be given on the grounds of the Wyantenuck Country Club, Great Burlington, Friday evening, July 31, is from the French, La Romanesquest, by Rostand.
 1t is charming comedy, having run for one year in Paris. Coquelin, the great comedian creating the chief role.
 Mrs. Patrick Campbell pro lueed the play in England and gave the American rights to MT.

Because of its romantic setting and the beauty and color of costumes (the Walteau Period, } it is perfect play to be produced out of -doors.
