Department. wship camping Worth very much Yon months, conditions were about as bright as at any time during the war but still the amount of postoffice business did not come up to that ot the first three months of this year. Money orders, however, are not in- cluded in the report hove, but Mr. Fagan’ states that business in this line has also been greater this year than last. The report adds that there is an increase of about $1,000 in the | amount of business done in 1920 than in 1919, When asked as to what reason he | could give for the increase this year' with present conditions, Mr. Fagan said that people are sending many smaller parcels by parcel post and of course have to buy more stamps. Business has fallen off at the factor- fes in town and they are sending out more advertisements through the mail than they ever did before, according to Mr. Fagan. The mails to foreign countries are now open and many let- ters each week leave the Kensington office for Italy and other countries.

Adolph Malcein was drawing a load of gyain from the depot to the mill and was almost in front of the Cole's store when he saw a Ford coupe approach- ing a short distance up the street. As the car came near to him he drew to the extreme right of the road, going south. The automobile was on the extreme right of the road going north. Just as it came_opposite the wagon with grain %thé. chine swerved and ran directly into thy front wheel and the horse of the team. The automobile was driven by Leo Combe of Bristol, who claimed that the heavy fog and the mist on the windshield prevented him from seeing where he was driv- ing. One of the horses was badly hurt and will probably have to be shot. Outside of that mo other dam- age was done.
