CAR PARKED NEAR
ROADSIDE STORE IS
CAUSE OF PILE-UP

A pile-up Of three automobiles,
which according to the State High
way Police officer who investigated
was due to the parking Of car on
the side of the highway, occurred in
front of Simpsons roadside store
about two miles out from this city on
the Waterville highway, Monday
evening. resulting in damage to all
three machines concerned, but for
tunately no personal injury to any or
the drivers or passengers.
An Oldsmobile touring car operat-
ed by Raymond j. Ellis Of Pettingills
Corner, this city drew up in front OF
the roadside stand and stopped at
about 10 o'clock. G. L. Beal of Togus
driving a Star coach was proceeding
toward Augusta and as he swung out
to the left of the stationary Oldsmo-
bile his left rear fender caught the
left forward hub cap of Ford sedan.
operated by Alfred B. Emerson of
Gardiner, which was proceeding to-
ward Waterville.
The Ford was quickly turned about
in the roadway and with the crump-
ling of the left forward wheel also
received a broken wishbone, badly
sprung front axle and other damages
to the front end. Fortunately neither
Mr.. Enmons, nor his companions,
Frank Mason. Mrs. Isabelle Mason
and young lady were injured, other
than a shaking UP and minor bruis-
eS.
After locking with the Emnons
car, the Star. driven by Mr. Beal was
crowded over into the parked Odds
mobile, and the damage to the prac-
tically new Star was on both sides,
with the most serious damage being
on the right side which sideswiped
the Ellis machine. Both running
boards were crushed, the rear mud
guards dented and the right rear
wheel of the Star was sprung to the
extent that four or five spokes were
broken.
About the only damage to the
Oldsmobile was a dent in the body
and twisted spring clip. Officer
Frank II. Place of the State High
way Police investigated the accident
but 1t was understood last evening
that no criminal action would be in
stituted, though it is probable that
civil litigation TO determine the res
possibility for the damage may re-
suit.

PULLMAN
VILLAGES PLANNED

Twelve villages of Pullman cars on
railroad sidings in and Immediately
adjoining Philadelphia will appear
overnight October II when the eighth
anual convention of the American
Legion gets under way in the Sesqui-
centennial city.
The transportation committee un-
der General w. W. Atterbury, presi-
dent of the Pennsylvania railroad,
has been perfecting arrangements in
the convention city for several
months, and insofar as possible, all
its plans are completed for arranging
the safe and rapid movement of about
100000 persons who will attend the
convention.
General Atterbury and his associ-
ates have arranged also for the quick
movement of about 100000 persons
who will attend the convention.
General Atterbury and his associ-
ates have arranged also for the quick
movement of great numbers Of motor
care which will bring perhaps $4,000
visitors from every corner of Amer
lea.
The Pullman villages will have ey-
erything except police force. Al
though located on railroad sidings,
the little community on wheels will
have modern municipal Improvements
such as 'pavements," water supply,
and electric light system. City fire
men will make frequent inspection of
the little towns"
The Pullman cars will be backed
into the sidings upon their arrival
In Philadelphia, connections will be
made with the special electric light
ing systems, and the travellers will
not even have to move their baggage.
Accommodations will be provided for
475 regulation Pullman cars.

DOUGhBUYS OF 1776 ARE CREn-
TIED WITH BOBBED HAIR START

Origin of bobbed hair is now def
nitely laid to the war-the Revolu-
tionary war.
Discovery by Capt i. G. Baird, an
army officer, of dusty old Continental
army records, stored for years in the
Schuykill arsenal shows Americas
first shingle was worn by the Ameri-
can doughboy and not by the Ameri-
can flapper.
Bobbing the hair was even made q
matter Of general orders for the sol
der of 1776, the ancient documents
indicate. One such decree, issued at
West Point, is oddly at variance with
present-day West Point traditions
which frown on anything but the
trimmest Of hair-cuts.
CAS- the head dress Of soldier is
one Of the first and necessary orna-
ments," it reads, "the Capt. com.
mands the N. G. officers and Privates
of the first Rgt. to have their hair
cued behind not to exceed seven inch
es long and close to the head.
"The N. G. officers and Privates
of the second Regt. to have their hair
tied behind in bob cut close to the
head, the hair of the whole to be cut
on the top of the head short and
brushed back. The officers command
ing companies will see this order car
ried into effect as soon as possible" 4"

RANGERS HAVE ODD
PETS AT GRAND CANYON
BY e. T. Scoyen. Chief Ranger

by f.. i. ScOyen, Chief Ranger
Perhaps the most interesting things
in the park information office are the
few animals that are kept there. To
date these consist Of one Gila mon
ster, a side-winder rattlesnake, a por-
cupine, a lizard and few horned
toads.
The Gila monster is the oldest ex-
hibit, as we have had him for over a
year. He is known by the name OF
Hal, which is short for his full name
Of Hal |. Tosis. Although not indi-
genous TO the park, he is kept here
because he was presented to us by
MIR. Mccormick, an Indian agent near
Tucson. He is perhaps the greatest
attraction in the office.
Rattles is what his name indicates.
Although rattle snakes are not found
in most sections of the park, and we
have no record of one being seen
around the Grand Canyon Village,
they occur to some extent in the can
yon itself. The specimen in the Of
flee is q small sidewinder He is very
obliging about shaking his rattles for
visitors.
Oswald is a recent acquisition, and
threatens to oust Hal from his place
as the most popular exhibit. He is
a baby porcupine, and was caught by
Ranger Leo Smith near the checking
station a few days ago. The first
night he escaped from his cage and
disappeared All efforts to locate him
proved futile, and it was finally de-
cided that he had escaped through an
opening in a window. Two nights
later a pitiful cry coupled with some
scratching overhead attracted the at
tention of the ranger on duty. A
flashlight revealed the small fellow
hiding between the ceiling of the in
formation office and the floor of the
superintendent's office. He was taken
back to the information desk where
he readily partook Of food and water.
The next day he showed no displeas-

ADMITS KILLING
PHOENIX WOMAN

Phoenix police have obtained what
they declare is a full confession from
II. II. Brown, alias Paul A. Cameron,
coast strangler, that he killed Mrs.
Mamie Hale, "a, last April 8, by
beating her and then jamming a yard
Of blood-stained cloth down her
throat.
Authorities here hope to obtain the
extradition Of Cameron to Arizona for
trial. He confessed to strangling to
death Mrs. Ollie B. Russell in Santa
Barbara June "a.
If Cameron proves to be Mrs Hale's
slayer, it will clear up one Of the most
brutal murders on record there. The
woman's chest was crushed and Coun-
ty Physician Harry J. Felch said af-
ter an examination that almost all her
ribs had been broken.
A sharp instrument had been thrust
into her left eye and her head and
face fiendishly bruised.

BOY SCOUTS RECEIVED
BY INDIAN TRIBE

The Iroquois Indians have paid Of
fetal honor to Boy Scouting. Chief
Clear Sky, active and titular head,

are Field Executive Elroy A. Thomas
of Los Angeles, who was made a
member and sub-chief; and Scout
master Cook also of that city, appoin-
ted as medicine man, the first white
man, it is said, to hold this position
in the tribe.
The ceremony took place in a park
in Los Angeles, and was witnessed
by huge throng of scouts and many
scout officials.
Only six other white men, it is stat
ed, have been adopted by the Iro-
quois. Two of these were the late

as he minced on the pine needles
given him. His Unsuitable appetite
serves to attract small groups of tour
lists to him throughout the day.
At present writing, Oswald spends
the entire day on top the Gila mon
ster's cage, and is always ready to
eat fruit cookies and cakes, as we'll
as pine needles. His favorite dish at
present is apples. If allowed to smell
one he sets up pitiful wall until
presented with a portion. The little
quilted creature has become decided
pet with park employees. He climbs
around in their arms and apparently
enjoys their gentle stroking of his
back.

BABY BROWNS IN
TANK NEAR TUCSON

A one year old girl, Helen Reed,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred A..
Reed, OF Mariana, Wednesday after
noon crawled from the seat of a truck
into tank of water loaded on the
truck and was drowned. The truck,
which was used to haul water from

child had been placed on the seat by
the mother, who had returned to the
house to bring other children to the
truck, preparatory to making a trip
to Tucson.
