Max Mayer is up from McKavett and wears his nose leaning towards Kayser's. A horse kicked him in the face, but luckily did no serious damage, with the exception of making Max think he had stopped a cannon ball.

Car Turns Over
Mr. and Mrs. Fritz Luckenbach and Mr. and Mrs. Bud Westbrook passed through an exciting experience while on their way to Fredericksburg, Saturday. The roads were as slippery as only West Texas roads can get and Mr. Luckenbach was driving at a moderate speed when within a few miles of Mason, the car hit a hole in the road, skidded and turned turtle, pinning the party under the body of the car. Fortunately because of Mr. Luckenbach’s care in driving, nobody was hurt and the only damage done to the car was a broken wind shield and a broken radius rod, which, if we got the telephone message correctly, was broken by coming in contact with Bud Westbook’s head. However, the party righted the car and made the rest of the trip without any more accidents.
