 Two local cars were somewhat dam sed in collision which occurred ear Monson Monday morning. Three ars were rounding a curve in a line | 'ith only short space separating | hem. Two teams had met on the | urve which left a small space for the | ars to pass. The first automobile | lowed up when it's driver saw the | ituation, but the driver of the second | ar, Joseph Stephens, owing to the | urve saw what had happened too late md ran into the foremost car damag- ng his radiator. The third car, driv- n by Thomas Yare, ran into the stephens auto and more damage re- ulted. None of the people in the | 'ars were seriously hurt.
 For some reason or other, or maybe or no reason at all, the returned ser ice men are very slow in having their | discharge papers recorded in the | own clerks office. There is no cost | with this for the clerk is wiling to do the work free and the | ne to benefit by it is the ex-service | nan, or his relatives. In case the dis | harged papers should ever be lost a | duplicate could be obtained from the own clerk if the owner of the papers ad them recorded It can readily be cen that this would be a great help connection with the obtaining of a enslon. By this registering the boys EIll also make it possible for the se- actmen to know whom to give the | ledals, which are expected soon, and dd greatly to the success of the cele- ration in their honor
