BUS SLIPS OFF OF SLIPPERY

Three persons were painfully cut
and bruised abotit the face and body
and az others were considerably
shaken up when big automobile
bus, in which they were riding, skid
oed and upset while going down
Steiner's Hill near Jefferson, Sunday
afternoon. The bus was but slight
ly damaged. After receiving treat
ment from DR.. w. Hayes Brown,
JEFFERSON, the party continued their
way to Baltimore.
The party, which. included base
bali team, came to Brunswick from
baltimore Sunday morning, and
played game with the B. A. c. in
The afternoon. Later they left on
their return trip. While going down
Steiner's Hill, the bus skidded on the
wet road and before the driver could
control the machine it veeered to
one side of the road and turned
over. Three of theparty were
lacerated about the face and body
by broken glass and most of the
Others were slightly bruised. DR..
Brown, of jefferson, was called, who
dressed the injuries of those hurt.
Steiner's Hill, on the Jefferson
side of the road, has long been one
of the most dangerous declines on
any highway in Frederick County
Hemp's hill ON the opposite side, is
also dangerous. Both hills have
been worn smooth and are especial
iy dangerous after a rain. In one
aay recently, Ii automobiles me-
with accidents on these two hills
after rain. Persons in the neigh
borhood assisted the victims of Sun
days accident in getting out of tn,
bus after it turned over. Fortunate
ly the machine was going slow o.
more serious mishap might have oc
Cured.

CENTRAL GARAGE TAKE
AGENCY FOR HUDSON AND
ESSEX CARS.

The Central Garage Co., an
nounces that it has been selected as
the agency for Hudson and Essex
motor cars for Charles Town and
territory. Mr.. E. T. Clipp has been
investigating the Hudson-Essex
proposition for some time and is
particularly enthusiastic about both
makes. He looks for substantial
business from the first.
'In my investigation" said Mr..
Clipp, l learned that the Hudson
and Essex companies have always
had a splendid reputation with their
owners, dealers and distributors
alike and throughout the automo-
bile industry, as well. Automobile
men tell me that their product has
always been of high standard@sand
that they have unusual financial
strength. l went most carefully in
to the entire matter, including con-
struction methods, principles and
workmanship of the two cars, and
am confident that no other cars
offer as much for the price asked as
the Hudson Super-Six or the Essex.
| feel fortunate in being selected as
their representative for this terri
tory.
while in Baltimore / was shown
a number of letters sent in by Hud-
son and Essex owners which certain
ly spoke volumes for the long life,
economy, ease of handling and COM
fort which the construction and
engineering principles of the Hudson
and Essex mako nossihla
Il can assure users and pros
spective users in Charles Town that
in either splendid, attractive Hud-
son or In the smaller, lighter but no
less attractive Essex that they will
find car by far the best buy that
they have experienced in years.

STATE ROAD COMMISSION IN
SPEcTs PROPOSED ROUTES OF
CHARLES TOWN-MARTINSBURC
ROAD.
The entire state road commission,
including Major G. P. Fortney,
chairman, DIR. E. B. Stephenson and
C. E. Hiner, of Charleston, with
District Engineer B. E. Gray, of
Keyser, spent last Wednesday after
noon in this section a sa part of a
general trip of inspection through
the district which is in charge of
Division Engineer Gray. They left
Wednesday night on their return to-
wards Charleston, travelling by
motor.
While in this vicinity the
commission viewed the two routes
originally proposed as the location
for the state highway link connect
ing Martinsburg and Charles Town,
adjoining county seats, and the
commission was asked by repre-
sentatives of the business and pro-
fessional men to abandon their an
nounced plan of running the road
via South Queen street to Kearneys-
vile and thence via the Leetown
pike to Charles Town with con-
Meeting link between Kearneysville
and Shepherdstown, and in the place
of this road make the highway run
via East Burke street and Flagg' s
crossing to Walper's Cross Roads
and thence to Kearneysville and on
via the Leetown pike to Charles
Town. The recommended routing
would touch territory more densely
populated, would pass the Berkeley
County golf club links which are
being given an ever increasing pa
tronage and would provide a quick
and easy road for traffic from Shep-
herdstown to Martinsburg, it wal
pointed out.
The party went over the East
Burke street route and returned t1
Martinsburg via South Queer
street.
The members of the commission
would not indicate their impression
but said the matter would be giver
consideration.
In the party in addition to tn,
commission and the division engi
neer were Engineer Hawkins, rep
resentative of the division engi
neer's office in Berkeley Co: Form

The real estate agency of w. O.

a house and about two acres of
ground near Summit Point, belong
ing to Mrs. w. B. Grove, to Mr..
John T. Henderson,. This is one of
the quickest real estate transactions
that has taken place in this county
for some time. The property had
been on the market only a few
weeks when Mr.. Henderson, arrived
in the county and purchased it the
day after his arrival here. Mr..
Henderson,, until recently resident
of California, travelled all the way
across the continent to make his
home in the Shenandoah Valley and
we wish him all success in his new

Queen Marie Must
Postpone Trip to
America This Year

SIBIU, Transylvania Queen Marie
Of Rumania probably will be obliged
10 defer her long contemplated trip TO
the United States until next year.
She had hoped to visit New York
prior TO the coronation Of herself and
King Ferdinand, which viii take place
here August 1G, but the wedding Of
her second daughter, Marie to King
Alexander Of Jugoslavia, early in June
will make II impossible.
Then she has az number Of official
visits to make this year to European
countries so that a voyage to America,
after the coronation in August, is ex-
tremely improbable.
The popular Rumaniau queen desires
to express her warm appreciation and
thanks for the many invitations she
has received from women's civic so
cleties, other organizations and person
al friends in the United States urging
her to visit America this year.
She has even had invitations from
motion picture concerns, one Of which
offered her flattering sum to appear
in an American scenario as Queen of
the Movies She obviously had to
decline these novel tenders.

new GINGHAMS FOR ALL PURPOSES

Imitation is said TO be the sincerest
form Of flattery, and the fact that silks
are masquerading IN gingham effects
tells to what heights the once humble
gingham has climbed along the road
to sartorla prominence
Gingham is used for almost every
thing under the sun this season. II
makes the draperies and upholstery
coverings in nursery or Informal bun
galow and cottage bedrooms; It is used
to trim some of the smartest frocks and
blouses; it is even, this season, made
into bathing suits, as Palm Beach has
noted. But it's first, last and most pop
ular use has been and probably always
will be for informal frocks
The exquisitely fine tissue gingham,
now offered in such a wealth OF de-
signs, colors and shades, puts bingham
definitely into the class of the very
incest of woman's summer fabrics, suit
able for summer shopping, country club
and resort wear, even for informal aft
ernoon affairs like porch parties and
garden teas. OF course, gingham al
ways has been liked for children's
frocks
Checks are the most popular design
say the mill heads and importers. In
the fine tissue ginghams the most sold
are those combining delicate shade
with white. in small checks from a
quarter to half an inch square. Stripes
are good, however, and offered in a va
rety of widths and colors
