Not the Same Fate for
Nice Christmas Cards

MIR CHRISTMAS CARD leaned
1V1 heavily against the rack. The
store was dark. The doors locked.
"What a day! What a day." he
groaned.
Mrs. Christmas Gard sighed loud
ly. "You have suffered no more
than ! have, my dear"
"What I object to are ladies who
bend back my corners, and peer at
my picture, and read my lines, and
then lay me down again all askew,"
said Mr.. Christmas Gard.
"That's nothing! How would you
like to have little girl jam you
back in your envelope so that she
tore the red lining?"
Several other cards spoke up.
They all complained of bad treat
ment.
"And we'll all be thrown In the
waste basket, anyhow" finished Mr..
Christmas Card. "Ho-hum =.
dear mel"
But next morning when both
Mr.. and Mrs. Christmas Card were
bought by the same person, and
later sent to the same family, and
not thrown into the waste basket
but set up on the mantel, they felt
very proud.
"But we are very remarkable
cards." they told each other, and
waited for the next person to say,
"How perfectly lovely these are!

you know what it is?"
"Why, no, Johnnie. I'm afraid

"Well, it's two children; It's
twins"
what do you mean, Johnnie?
Miss Jenny isn't married. She
can't have any children. I know
she has always wanted some, but
she wouldn't adopt any, and now
she is so old and all--it's ridicu-
lous, Johnnie; don't talk such non
sense"
"That isn't nonsense, mother. OF
course, Mrs. Thimble didn't say
she was going to give Miss Jenny
any children, but she did say she
was going to give her lot Of
presents and nice things, such as
a sweater, and a lot of things she
can't afford for herself, so that
she will have at least one Merry

Year in her life, and l just figured

of twins an old woman like her

The past 36 hours proved unfor- tunate for a number of autoists, two of whom are patients in New Brit ain General hospital suffering with painful though not serious injuries which resulted from crashes in vari- cus parts of the town, while third is being sought by the police for running away from the scene of an accident.
 The injured at the hospital are: Frank Garrick, aged 20, of Ken sington and Andrew Morawski of 106 Willow street. New Britain. The two received their injuries when T large touring car driven by Garrick collided with a small sedan driven by John Timko of 5S West street, New Britain. The latter is being sought by officers on a charge Of running from the scene of an ac- cident.
 This crash was the third recorded during the period and occurred shortly after midnight last night. According to the police version of the crash, Garrick was driving to- wards Kensington when the car driven by Timko attempted to cross Pennington avenue. Both met at the corner and the smaller car was overturned. Garrick received a pain ful injury to his left shoulder while Morawski, who was riding in Tim kos car. was painfully cut and bruised about the face and neck.
 Timko is said to have picked himself out of the wreckage and on sighting the form of bis injured companion lying in the road, inn mediately took to his heels. His wherea bouts are still a mystery to the police. Both cars were consid erably damaged.
 The first accident of the S6-hour period also occurred at Upson's cor ner and involved two cars, one driven by Mrs. Alice Carrier of IA Henry street, Bristol, and the other by Richard Johnson of 1454 Boule- yard avenue, West Hartford. The time was o'clock Saturday after noon. Mrs. Carrier was proceeding west on Pennington avenue while the Johnson car was travelling south along New Britain road when the crash occurred.
 The Bristol woman evidently be- came confused when she sighted the other car with the result that she al lowed her car to crash that of the West Hartford man. Constable Frank Brown investigated the accident which did but slight damage to both cars and allowed the drivers to pro-
