"A couple Of auto accidents
within the past week in this vicinity
have attracted attention.
One evening last week as Will Buss
was on his way to town, his auto was
run into by another care at the FOL
tevin crossing. The latter driver run
ming at a speedy clip and not turning
out to allow the Buss car to make a
necessary turn in the road. Mr.:
BUSES car wa not badly damaged
but the other car suffered greatly.
This latter car was owned in Dunaip.
The other accident occurred on our
streets Monday evening. Mr.. Wilbur
from near Dunlap. ran into a car
owned by travelling man. The latter
was observing the law by keeping to
the right of the center post, recently
installed in the center OF each square.
Mr., Wilbur possibly did not under
stand the way it was necessary for
the other driver to make the short
turn around the post. and. thus ran IN
to the latter's car and broke wheel.
Were drivers to be more careful 10
keen safe distance from other cars
fewer accidents would result.

day or two until he was discharged
He came into town and quietly pre-
sented a check at the Bank OF Dow
City for $3.50. 1t looked right to the
bank officials and it was paid. Later
| in the day it was discovered to be a
forgery. Messrs. Jack Ahart and w
=. Fishel went to Omaha, thinking
perhaps they could locate him, but
failed. It is hardly likely that he will
be caught now. He probably is a
