Tragedy on Christmas Day Takes Life of Miss Badertscher in Ohio.

A tragic Christmas eve accident is reported from Kidron, Ohio, where Miss Mary Jane Badertscher, 16, daughter of Mrs. John Badertscher, and Miss Vesta Sommer, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Adam Sommer, were hit by a fast moving car at about seven o'clock that evening. The girls were two of a group of six who were walking along a road from a home in the community.

Miss Badertscher, badly mangeled, died soon after the accident in a Massillon hospital. It is expected that Miss Sommer will recover.
