Luckily, at the point of the accident the shore was near, and by the - help of those on' the scene the animal managed to get to the shore. The democrat was somewhat damaged but the driver was unhurt. A second runaway, with more or less serious results, occurred, on Wed- nesday afternoon.

"~The local association will shortly have to close its rooms for the sum- mer months. It has had a very suc cessful winter.
