It looks more like the princess to us but 11 bump
is a bump whether it's on n royal or ordinary
hide. And it needs attention. -
Wc can't speak for the Prince but a bump on the
pecketbook is iilxut the worst bump anybody can
get in America and how tough it can be for the
poor devil who hits somebody with his car!
An accident like that can simply bump him out of
every cent he has, sometimes, not to mention his
pe.".ec of mind and a few other little possessions.
(Our only suggestion, of course, is to let Jack
