WAS BLUE MONDAY FOR . ?THE—CHRIST-MAS-JTREE The big eVergreen tree at the inx tersection at T. W. Smith’s garage, had a bad time of it the first of the week, when it was laid low., twice in twenty-four hours by motor cars. The first upset occurred about 3 a.m. oh ‘Monday morning, when a trio of Kinloss young men drove their car into it. The impact snapped a guide wire and threw the tree, to the pavement. The tree," which jwas first set up last Thursday, was again put in place Monday morning, but that ev­ ening- looked quite forlorn, without its ' twinkling' colored lights, which Md mostly been broken in the early morning crash, and which were* temporarily replaced by a warning red’ lantern, until a new' supply ■ of bulbs could, be secured. About midnight on Monday; the tree Came to grief a second time, when Tfarold Button drove his light delivery truck into it and once more the evergreen was/ laid low. .Both mishaps), were reported to Constable Moore.' Damage of a min­ or- nature, including a broken wind- shild was done to the Button Car. The impact in- both cases would be rather severe however, as the stout evergreen had its base set between two heavy blocks of cement,, while four wires secured the tree hearer the top. * , ' 1 j<.A?
