Efficient Horns
Aid AutOist When

With traffic exceptionally heavy,
a horn that is instantly responsive
to the button is an absolute neces-
sity. Horns as Il rule give very
little trouble, but they are sub

Good Tools Needed
for Keeping Motor
i'm Fair Condition

An essential factor in taking
good care of the motor car is
keeping the tools functioning
properly. DO not allow them to
collect rust and become caked
with dust and oil. Occasionally
give the jack thorough lubricat-
ing. If the handle is one of the
jointed variety that is held to-
gether by pins, see that the pins
are not allowed to rust. The re-
ward will be many times saved

A large cher ry tree was blown down on James McPherson's front lawn. Several other trees were torn up by the roots but no material damage re- suited. All of the streets were strewn with broken limbs.

 piOn" in King Ben Case

St. Joseph, Mich, July 2S (UP)-- Hansel, star witness in the attempt to dissolve King" Ben Purnell"s S House of David, took the witness stand today and called his daughter Liar" and scorpion" for alleging conditions at the cult were immoral.
 The witness, Edward Johnson, 69, denied the assertion of a state wit ness that he had expressed the wish his daughter would die when she collapsed after telling of Purnell's S alleged immoral orgies at the col ony. He did not spare his denunci- ation of Purnell's eX-confidante, however.
 Mrs. Hansel, recovered from her illness, faced her father in court to- day. She was accompanied by her brother. Bert Johnson.
 Johnson pointed an accusing finger at his two children and said in a quavering voice:
 "There they are. They are SCOT pions. I want to keep away from them.'
 On cross examination Chief Pro- secutor George E. Nichols asked:
 Do you speak to Esther?"
 "Nothing doing" Johnson snap ped. "She is my enemy. She tried to break up my home. She is a scorpion and tool of the devil and I wouldn't visit her if she were dying"
 Esther, who left the colony sever al years ago, after being accused of a petty theft, is former faNorlte and confidante of King Benjamin Purnell
 She charged she was one of two score girl victims of Purnells blood purifying" rites.
 Her father brought four girls and a boy to the colony in 1903.
 Born and raised in Sweden, John sons knowledge of navigation plac- ed him in charge Of one of the cults sailing vessels on Lake Michigan
 Johnson, fairly shouting at tune, charged he once entered a room in the colony and found Esther and Jerry Hansel. her present husband, in a compromising situation.
 "She told me to get out and mind my business" Johnson said.
 Johnson denied Purnell is guilty of the immoralities charged against him.

BERLIN FLOODED
 BY SUDDEN STORM Autos Stall in Deep Water at Railroad Underpass
 LIGHTNING STRIKES SHED Legion League Totters As Berlin Team Hints at Disbanding-Brick Industry Alarmed at Slow Activi- ties-Other Items of Interest.

Berlin was flayed by one of the worst storms in a decade yesterday afternoon when a sudden change of weather brought brilliant electri- cal display combined with wind and rain amounting almost to a cloud burst.
 Springing up out of the west about noon, the clouds formed hur- riedly giving local residents little time to prepare for the deluge which followed. Coming at noon hour, it caught hundreds of working people on their way home to lunch and forced them to seek shelter in private residences. Automobiles were forced to stop as the binding torrent made motoring hazardous.
 Several large trees were struck by lightning and a building owned by the Merwin Brick Go. was slightly damaged when one of the bolts struck a chimney demoi Shing the brick structure and tearinl small hole in the roof. Limbs W, e dis lodged by the high wind aLd lay across the highway until removed by motorists.
 The station underpass, as ex- pected. filled rapidly after the first few minutes of rain. Rising to a new high water mark, the tunnel presented a swimming hole to Ken sington youngsters who were not fin icky about the color of water and donned bathing suits in which they frolicked and swam until the tide subsided. Five machines became stuck under the bridge and were lowed out by fellow motorists. One Connecticut Co.,, bus, after waiting a considerable length of time, de- cided to make a try at passing through the pond and stalled ex- actly in the center, necesstating a tow from a passing truck.
 The construction excavations on the new highway suffered greatly from the flood, loose gravel and newly laid filler being washed away from its position. The back roads of the town were today described dS DSll6 III Ddu SohultAOl4 diu NHS shoulders of all dirt roads dissolved under the rush of water.
 Brick yard pits filled quickly and operations at the local plants were discontinued until the pumps had drained the yards. Standing corn, wheat and other grain was flattened and it is thought that the damage caused by the storm will be placed at a high figure.
