AUTO PLUNGES OVER BANK

Six persons-three grown and three
children-narrowly escaped being kill
ed when an automobile in which they
were riding plunged over a 4O-foot
embankment along the road between
Thurmont and Foxville,. Saturday
night. One of the occupants, Mrs. Vic
tor Brown of Foxville, sustained a
slight fracture of the skull and was
lacerated about the face. While she
was reported to be badly hurt, her
condition is not regarded as serious.
After receiving attention from DIR.
Birely, of this place, she was removed
to the City Hospital, at Frederick.
About 9 o'clock Mrs. Brown, Mrs.
Omar Weagley and the latter's two
children and brother-in-law, Mr..
Weagley, and an infant Of Mrs. Brown
left Thurmont for home, with Weagley
driving. At point about three miles
from Thurmont the lights of the car
suddenly went out. Before the ma
chine could be brought to stop the
car veered to one side of the road
and plunged over an embankment.
Mrs. Brown, it is said, was caught
under the car, while the others were
thrown free of the machine.
Night Waterman Brooks, at the
Greensboro plant, a short distanc
from where the accident occurred
heard the crash and hurried to the
spot. He succeeded in releasing Mrs.
Brown from the car and about that
time Robert L. and Thomas j. Briner,
of Washington, on their way to Blue
Ridge Summit, came along. They
stopped their car and Mrs. Brown and
Weagley were taken to the office OF
DIR. M. A. Briefly. The former, suffer
ing from injuries about the face and
head, including slight fracture of the
skull, was taken to the City Hospital

released from the Frederick City Hos

ice and fractured three ribs, was kick
ed by horse and had hip broken,
and sustained two broken ribs when
thrown from horse. For these inju-
ries he was treated at home.
His first hospital experience was in
Baltimore, when he accidentally cut off
two fingers. His second was also in
Baltimore when he was injured in the
Baltimore fire as a member of the
Westminster Fire Company and had
gone with that unit to Baltimore to
offer relief. The third time was from

BASEBALL TEAM AT CHURCH

Members of the Thurmont baseball
club, and Mr.. j. Ernest Stoner, man
ager of the Woodsboro Club, attended
Trinity Reformed Church in body on
Sunday evening and listened to spec
ial sermon by the pastor, DR.. P. E.
Heimer.
After welcoming the members of
the team and expressing appreciation
for the response, DR.. Heimer said in
part that he had followed the games
closely and enjoyed them, practically
spending his vacation with the team.
His text was taken from l Cor, 8: "a
25.
There are some lessons learned
from baseball which can very handily
be applied to the game of life, DR..
Heimer said. First, all must play and
do their best at their several stations.
No one can play the game alone no
matter how skilled he is, and so it is in
all walks of life. No man can succeed
alone in his work. He depends for
success on all who are connected with
the business and so teaches the lesson
of working together.
Again, the game teaches the need
of GOODNESS and self-control. This val
liable qualification is learned in base
ball and it has been discovered that
college graduates who took a keen
part in athletics have become the most
successful men, he stated. Another
lesson, he said, is to take defeat with
good grace and be a good loser.

FELL FROM TRUCK

While on her way to Frederick on
Saturday afternoon to attend the ball

and barely escaped serious injury.
She was one of truck load of base
ball enthusiasts, and was sitting on
the endgate of the truck. AS they
passed over the railroad crossing at
Lewistown, the chain became unfast-
ened, throwing her to the road. She
received number of bruises but was
otherwise unhurt.
