RIENDS o f those called under the recent draft should get considerable com fort from a study of the mortality statistics of the armies in Europe.

Fish o f Hubbard, who sued Clackamas county for $2000 for in juries received in an accident on the New Era Hill last year in August, lo*t her case in the circuit court at Oregon City Thursday. Plaintiff’s contention was that tl e auto in which she was riding at the time of the accident was precipitated down off the steep embankment near the top o f the New Era hili, by reason o f a defect in the road, which plaintiff alleged, gave way, when her husband turned out to pass another car coining down the hill. The county put on evidence to show | that the road was o f sufficient width i for cars to pass, that the auto travel led for a distance of 27 feet after leav- i ing the main travelled road and before | it went over the embankment, and that j the accident was due to the driver’ s carlessness, together with the negli gence of the oncoming auto, in not giv- j ing the Fish car sufficient room to pass. Y. M. C. A. There are two other Fish cases pend ing, one by the driver, Frank E. Fish and one by a daughter, Amy Fish, who party was in the car at the time o f the acci dent. A. G. Thompson represented the plaintiff’s and District Attorney Hed ges and Deputy Thomas A. Burke hapdled the case for the county.
