VILLAGE NOTES. 

A Ford car driven by a woman, accompanied by another woman and two children, while attempting to turn around on Maple Avenue, Wednesday, backed into a pile of drain tile lying near the sidewalks. The tiles were thrown several ways, but fortunately none were broken, and the machine escaped serious damage. This shows that too much caution cannot be taken in operating an automobile, especially on narrow streets and crowded thoroughfares. 

VILLAGE NOTES. 

Dr. A. S. Winn of Escanaba, Mich., has recently challenged Rev. Dr. Samuel Platz of Appleton, Wis., to meet in debate upon the following subject: “Resolved, that the League of Nations will be of great benefit to the United States of America.” Platz to take the affirmative, Dr. Winn the negative. Platz recently gave a lecture in the Presbyterian church at Escanaba and Dr. Winn was present and heard the lecture. If the challenge is not accepted in ten days Dr. Winn will brand him as a falsifier, a deceiver and a hypocrite. Dr. Winn is a former resident of this section, being the son of the late Sylvester Winn of Settle’s Hill. 

Broke Leg In Fall from Wagon. 

Kenneth Hallenbeck, seven years old, son of Melford Hallenbeck, living on James Kinney’s farm about three miles southeast of Altamont, suffered a compound fracture of his right leg Monday morning when he fell from a wagon at his home. The boy was holding the reins when the horse attached to the vehicle started suddenly, pulling him over the dashboard. The boy fell to the ground, and at the same time his right leg became caught between the spokes of one of the wheels. The bone was broken in several places above the knee before the horse could be stopped. Dr. W. J. Brewster was called and reduced the fracture. The boy is doing as well as can be expected under the circumstances.
