QUARRYVILLE MEN MET
WITH AN ACCIDENT HERE

While driving home from work
one evening last week, four men
from Quarryville met with an au-
tomobile accident which partly
ruined their machine. They were
coming toward town on the Marietta
pike, when they struck a large tree
which was laying across the road
near the Eberle cemetery. The tree
had been felled by Charles Ramsey
for the Cemetery Association and
before he could display a danger
signal of any kind they came along.
The car was only slightly damaged
and the occupants escaped uninjured.

has long been advocated and urged
by the Lancaster Auto Club, and
the plan now of marking meets
with the hearty approval of -the
Club.
The main objection to any plan
of marking heretofore has been the
excessive cost of maintainance.
Some time ago, the local Highway
Supt. asked the Club to suggest
some plan of marking, and it
would be considered. A plan was
immediately submitted by Executive
Secy., Knox. This was practical
though not elaborate and probably
would have answered the purpose
but not as well as the plan recently
