revision recently.
But the revision did not suit po-

Al motorist who drove into the
main street from a siCe street APP
parently could not tell whether TO
turn to the right. the left, or go
straight ahead. He did a combina-
ton turn, with the result that he
turned far enough TO the left TO
catch the street marker, far enough
to the right TO keep from turning
it over, and then drove on down
the side street some fifty yards
with the heavy marker being push
ed along in front OF his car.
When the task of putting il back

with a crowd Of some hundred or
SO persons around watching, the
Job was finally turned we to the
