Jim Hightower was charged by hfs

Put the Jedge had heard enough. He
sow thnt both were to blame, and be
cause of the fact that he did not wish
to deal harshly with the woman, nhe
being a woman, and If he fined her
the husband would have to pay both

fined Jim fifty dollars, and told the

awards they gave this exhibit avtry
ribbon In the light vehicle class, via..

wagon" and "beet runabout."
The Smiths showed In their exhibit
tho photos of three generations of
Smiths, who are all buggy smiths, and
who are actively engaged In their
