Saturday afternoon on his

became freightened at some object
and ran ‘off at a lively rate of speed
Mr. Risser seeing his danger jumped
from the machine thereby saving
himself from possibly serious injury.
The machine was completely wrecked
as it was turned upside down. Miss
Florence Baker who was in berry

they had run a considerable distance.

A Rare Treat
Miss McDonald of State College
has arranged to give to the ladies of
Mount Joy, Florin and community a
free demonstration in canning and a
very interesting lecture by Miss Potts
on Friday afternoon, at 2:30 in the
M. S. Bowman store property.
This appointment has been pro-
cured by the efforts of the Woman's
Committee of this District and we
feel it will be a very rare treat. Come
one, come all
There are conservative days and
all house-wives should see the neces-
sity of canning all available vege-
tables for the coming winter and be
willing to learn all the best points in
keeping it well, with no risk of spoil-
ing, whereby losing time, effort and
material.
