She received a terrific bump on one jaw, which, it was feared at first, had been broken. It was found to be only a severe bruise however. Witnesses to the accident were fearful that the car would tip over pinning Miss Roth underneath it, in which case the results might have been much more seriouus. Sgt. Jesse L.

Caroline Hamann's 94th birthday observance, in a recent observer story. Prominent among the gifts Mrs. Hamann received was a beautiful water color sketch made by Mrs. J. Garrison, probably 12 by 24 inches which depicted memories in Mrs.

Hamann's long life. Starting with the fact that Mrs. Hamann was born in a log cabin, it depicted her memories of having seen Abraham Lincoln, rounding up cattle, a trip west in an oxdrawn wagon and the train on which she finally arrived in La Grande in 1908. It was a very fine piece of art work, and was used for the centerpiece of the refreshments table at the "Open House" given in Mrs. Hamann's honor.
