Monday evening crowd of young
folks motored out to Summit and
treated Deputy County Clerk R. D.
Holland and his bride to an old fash
toned charivari. As they were re.
turning to Butler about 1890 the car
driven by Zodcs Howard and. contain
ling Fern. Margaret and Dot Harper.
Ruth Wyatt, Veetrus Howard and
David Thompson. missed the culvert
near the Price farm east of town.
The bridge is rather narrow and tho
dust from several cars ahead SO
blinded young Howard that he could
not see the road and the two wheels
on the north side missed the bridge
entirely. The car however, got
across the bridge safely, but when It
struck the cmbankpent on the west
side the steering gear was broken and
Howard lost control Of the car, which
ran about a hundred yards when it
went up bank and collided with :,
telephone pole, which was broken
down. The car was overturned and
the occupants pinned underneath.
Ivan Ray, who was driving car
loaded with young folks just behind
the Howard car stopped and got the
car off the young folks who were
pinned under it. 1t was found that
none of them were badly hurt except
Miss Veetrus Howard, who was I'M
conscious. She was placed in the
Ray car and brought to town and a
physician summoned, who pro-
nounced her hurts not severe.
The damage to the car was re-
markab1y small, considering the ma
turc of the accident, the damage con-
sistng principally of broken
spindle and badly bent tenders.
When the car was righted the engine
was still running.

the State Highway Department are
now making a personal inspection of

department because of numerous
complaints received from counties to
the effect that the roads were not
being properly dragged, and that i'll
some instances the funds appropriat-
ed by the state were not being APP
piled upon the roads at all. The in
spectors are covering the entire state,
and will report any failure to drag
the roads at proper times. Citizens
living along the itrter-county seat
highways are also requested to notify
the State Highway Department if the
roads are not receiving attention, as
the state department is determined
to secure the best possible results
from the expenditure of the drag
funds.
