L. Price, was completely demolished by a speeding limited train, are still try- ing to figure out how Mr. Price escaped | uninjured.

Price was thrown clear by the impact and arose unhurt and without a scratch to mark his partici- pation in the accident.

Allow me to commend the service and courtesy furnished by your road." - g MiLwAUKEE Motor Coach Connections Kenosha to: Lake Gene- va and points between.
