Mrs. Milton A. Shumway, wife of Justice Shumway of the Connecticut supreme court, was struck by an au tomobile that was being driven by Calvin Killian Wednesday afternoon and hurled to the street. Wednesday evening Mrs. Shumways condition was reported as comfortable as was to be expected after the experience she had endured. It was said that her in iuries were not of a serious nature and unless there were some unex- pected developments she would re- cover. No bones were broken, it was said, unless there was a fracture of one rib, a fact which first examina- tions did not clearly disclose.
 The accident occurred in Main strees. near Hutchins street, at the old Losee bakery. Coroner Bill. who immediately started an investigation Of the accident, later said that he learned that Mrs. Shumway was cross ing the street. along which a truck was moving. and that the automobile, a touring car. struck he as she emerged 10 view from ahead of the truck.
 Mrs. Shumway was taken to the home of Mir. and Mrs Timothy E. Hopkins and medical aid was sum moned.
 Kiilian was taken into custody and his bond fixed at 5000. Just what the next step against him will be cannot be determined until the result of Mrs. Shumway's injuries is known.
 The accident shocked the people of Danielson. It was said Wednesday evening that officials will carefully scrutinize Killian's recO-d as a driver and that the circumstances surround ing the accident of Wednesday will be vsry carefully gone into.

news that the military efforts of our

on a certain massif, the inference be-

When we were studying elementary
French we learned that a massif is a
clump of trees, but that isn't at all
satisfactory in the present instance.
