1t was altogether by accident that
the Littleford chief found his weapons.
He had dropped Il small coin through
crack in the floor. Babe was quick
to say that she would crawl under the
house and look for the coin, although
she had just put on freshly laun-
dered blue-and-white calico dress. Her
anxiety showed plainly in her face.
Her father questioned her shmpiy, and
she stammered IN spite of herself. Ben

though it may be a fact that they all
reciprocatc the kind of sentiment that

that in taking over the wire lines of

he did so for the sole purpose of
fasting Government ownership on the

SEVERE AUTOMOBILE
ACCIDENT.

As we closed our forms al
about 2:4O o'clock yesterday, il
was reported to us that Mrs. S
f. Sorrell and her children came
near meeting their death by
their auto being run into ditch.
1t seems they were on their way
home and when reaching the
Liettemeyer property. Mrs. Sor-
rell lost control of the car and
rolled the machine into the
ditch. One of her little daugh-
ters had her face terribly cut
up by the wind shield. All of
the occupants were badly lace
rated. Fortunately at the time
of the accident. Mr.. Fred Liete-
meyer and DR.. ]. w. Sanders
were in sight and they got there
Just i'll time to rescue them.
Mrs. Sorrell also suffered from
the gas fumes which she in
hailed before she could be re-
moved from the wrecked car
which was lying bottom up
wards. The entire party were
brought to DR.. Sanders office
for further surgical attention.
We understand the little child's
face was badly lacerated.
