which direction the car of Mrs. Glen

her car were on their way to Omaha
and neither could see the other un
til tiny both popped out in the inter

of Mr. Teegarden ran into the side
of the car driven by Mrs. But lege.
with the result that the car driven
by Mrs. BUtlegB was rolled over iii
the ditch and the occupants badly
shaken up but no one seriously In
jured. The car of Mr. Teegarden was
slid for fifteen feet before the im-
j pact. Mr. Teegarden jumped from
his car and rushed to the relief of
'the ladies who were all able to get
out of the car. The trip to Omahs
'was spoiled for the ladies and their
car had to be hauled back home while
j Mr. Teegarden was able to drive his
car home. Both cars were covered
I by Insurance, but both had to i
turned over to the tender mercies of
ithe repair man. It was fortunate that
no fine was badly injured.
