 These guns are on display at Rabbits, in the window of the grocery department and the arrangement is quite artistic. The background of grass re- minds the hunter of duck sea- son and the edge of a lake. The wild cats and eagle disperse this feeling when they are seen and make the rifles seem as de- sirable as the shotguns. There are several medals in the win dow which will be given as trophies for the tournament, as we'll as the silver loving cups and the bronze cup.

Probably the foot was pressed all right, but the machine (not a Ford) seemed to respond to the pressure in a different manner than expected for it took a run for the curb, mounted to the sidewalk and finding that position less excit- ing than it appeared, and as the steering gear protested, the car headed for the telephone pole and deliberately tried to climb it. Failing to reach the top, it backed down and has since behaved itself, tho the pole still feels shaky and hopes never again 10 be on the firing line.
