 When automobiIists disagree it is customary for-the court to decide the points at issue, to determine the re- sponsibility of automobile collisions and to fix the damages. This will probably be the outcome of the acci- dent at Cross and Elm streets Tuesday when the automobile of George Kemp and Barney Fain were in collision. As a matter of course each placed the blame on the other fellow. With the strong conviction that Fain was at fault. Kemp was considerably sur prised and agitated when he received a bill of damages for $500 from Fain Wednesday morning. Instead of a bill of damages Kemp expected check in settlement.

Near the east end of the east rail- road yard at Midway is boulder that bears strong emblance to the human head and face. the eyes, nose and mouth being clearly defined. The location of this boulder, which weighs perhaps two tons. is in the line of proposed new trackage and will prob ably be blown to pieces to make way for Improvements. The queer boulder is without historic interest and there fore there is no effort being made for the preservation of this freak of na- ture.

The glacial character, howe yer, has heen challenged Tor the lact that the variety of granite to whicn it be- longs occurs in the peighbOrnoou and constitutes the bed rOcK upon which 1t rests. They may be pou.uers which have originated through the disinte grafton or great masses Of rock, O. which there were harder nuc-ei that have longer resisted the ravages or the tooth of time, and happened~to cause the formation or the Midway ROCK or 'fi iuman Head"
