POTOSI EVENTS
General Items of Interest
Gathered by Our Special
Correspondent.

While driving along leisurely with
his horse and mail cart near the
house Of Valentine Fitch last Mon
day, E. A. Berge, carrier on route one
met with a painful accident. His
horse stumbled, causing Berge to be
pitched head-long from the cart to the
hard surface, alighting on his head
and left shoulder, that rendered him
helpless. His fall was seen from Mr.
Flitch's house and the people there
fastened to his assistance, a phone
call was sent in to POtOsi and an auto
was soon at the place and conveyed
Mr.. Berge to the doctor, where his
bruises were attented to. He was
confined to his home for the weekend
suffering great pain. He will not be
able to resume his mail duties for
some days to come. Henry Keehner
is substituting on the route until he
becomes able to do so.

The sea sled was. perhaps, the most rad.

The sled looks like II sounds-a boat with

hits high speed It does not, cut through

that life ashore no longer offered the ulti-
mate in sensation. And, almost overnight.
