Miss Oka Pancoast, driving a Model F Buick, and Wm. Clark of Brook, driving an E-M-F 30, collided in the street in front of Rhoads' grocery Saturday morning, head-on. The radiator, one Jamp, steering gear and front guard of Clark's machine was damaged somewhat, but the Buick escaped without injury. The trouble apparently arose over Clark’s trying to turn around in the street. ■" . ■ . During the severe electrical storm Saturday night, lightning came into the bathroom of A. G.
