Boy, Seeking Ride On
Truck, Is Run Over

HIGHLAND, March 23.-Addis
Aston was badly bruised Monday
about 1890 o'clock, in front of his
home, when he was struck down by
a passing school truck. The truck
left the campus on business, being
driven by Henry Ursher, of Randals
Crossing, and going down east Broad
street, met many school boys return
ing to school from lunch. Adds
Aston thinking he would jump on
the truck and ride, missed the hold
he aimed at, and fell directly under
the truck. A rear wheel passing
over his back.
The truck driver was unaware of
the accident-his attention being
drawn elsewhere. When a child told
him at school of the accident he i'm
mediately returned to the scene and
found the boy seriously bruised. No
bones were broken, but internal in

Carnations Given Lady
Visitors On Occasion
Of the Opening

Hundreds of women and men of
the community visited the PIGGY
Wiggly Grocery Store on its opening
day today-many Of them just to
look, but scores of them to purchase
A large number of women were wait,
ing at the door before the opening
hour of 9 O'Clock, and within few
all four wide aisles were filled. The
crowds kept coming and going al
day long. Each lady, on departing
carried from the store a lovely car,
nation, personally presented by ID
E. Williams, of Columbus, of the
Piggy Wiggly organization, who
came here for the occasion.
The Piggy Wiggly is a self-serv,
ing cash-and-carry grocery store
The local manager, Robert P. Snow
was on the job to greet the callers
and customers, to answer questions
and help acquaint the public with the
simple manner Ct using the Piggy
Wiggly system. All customers enter
the left side of the store through a
turnstile, which turns in only one dl-
rection. Once inside, the customer
must pass through the several aisIes,
passing all the shelf goods, before
coming to the exit, which passes the
cashiers desk, where goods are paid
for and wrapped.
On the shelves, according to Man
ager Snow, are to be found nearly
1000 items, against about 400 found
in ordinary grocery stores. These IN.
clude only well-known brands OF
goods, there being no special or prl-
vate brands sold. A large refrigera-
tor is stocked with box bacon, cream
cry butter, cheese, etc. A full line
of fruits and vegetables will be car
ried, although Manager Snow eX-
planned that he was disappointed this
morning because his shipment OF
Florida truck and fruit for the open
ing did not arrive.
The Piggy Wiggly is a unit OF a
chain of stores extending across the
continent. All are identical in fix
lures and arrangement of goods. The
fixtures are handsome, and entire
store presents an extraordinarily at
tractive and clearly appearance.

The American stage owes much to
