GIRL SAVES HER GARTER
Police Patrol Driver Is Given the
Scare Of His Life In the
Rescue.

Oakland, Gala garter that slipped
at the wrong moment nearly wrecked
Oakland's $4,000 patrol wagon!
The wagon was answering hurry
call. At Twelfth street and Broad
way, in the center of the downtown
district, a girl gowned in silk and
furs started across the street. Half
way over she halted, turned pale and
made a wild clutch for her knee.
Pedestrians shouted warning, but
the girl was oblivious. She stopped
over ana began to tumble. The pa
troll wagon opened its siren, executed
a fancy curve, missed the girl by an
inch, careened past telephone pole
by narrow margin and righted again.
Then only did the girl straighten
up, bring something blue into view and
continue modestly on her way. She
got the garter, but the patrol wagon
driver got the scare Of his life.

MAN is HAPPY AT LAST
For Score Of Years He Wandered

From Whom He Parted When

her gone life meant little to him.
