a JOKE ON The LANpLapY.
The objectionable Crime Of the Vet
Gran searder In His Youth.

'"o Onparoona5le Crime OF the Vet
Gran 5earder In His Youth.
Il never had but one row in a
boarding house." said the veteran
boarder, 4and that l brought on my
self.
I'm this house we certainly did
have tough steak. Where they got
1t l never knew. I used TO think
they bought the sole leather rem
nants from trunk factory there
was then about four blocks from our
house and cooked them for steak.
'Ps that as it may, the steak was
tough, and one night l conceived
what l then thought was felicitous

you have seen those knives with
a cutting edge on one side and saw
teeth on the other: They sell 'em
to housewives for cutting of slices
Of ham, the knife TO cut and the saw
to saw the bone. Well, in my youth
full foolishness l bought one Of
those saw knives and took it home,
and the next night we had steak for
dinner took it down ard laid if
beside my plate on the table, and
1t made sensation.
when my piece of steak came in

ABOUT AUTO LICENCES
SOMETHING INTERESTING FOR AUTO
MOBELIANS IN GENERAL.

"Morgantown has the distinction
of assessing the highest automobile
license tax in the world and of hay-
Ing the lowest speed limit in the
world said the motorist who had
just drawn city license tag No. IS,
and was prepared for any sort of
trouble that might come. 1t is the
only city in the world where the
cars stop on tee wrong side of the
street crossing, but that he has
nothing to do with the license CUES
tion,'' he continued. Wonder why
they didn't keep number lS tag as a
nest-egg:" he pondered audibly.
Think of planking down $3.50
for the city and double that sum for
the county for the privilege of carry
ing IS on a nickel plate. It's awful
the way they soak US. The other
day it cost Pennsylvania man Just
$1,000 for the privilege of riding in
from Cheat and driving down High
street to the hotel. OF course, he
had the money and could stand it,
but that don't make it any better
from the standpoint of the men who
do the hold-up.
West Virginia don't recognize the
liceuse of any other state, and the
consequence is that West virginian
who wants to make little dash into
Pennsylvania, Maryland, Ohio or
Virginia, or Kentucky, has to plank
up as soon as he crosses the state
line. Pennsylvania has a license law
that goes into effect next year, but
it does not help West yirginians.
We don't recognize their license, and
they pay no attention to ours. The
West Virginian who goes into the
Keystone State under the happy de-
fusion that his license is good for a
tour, is scheduled for a jolt in the
way of a hundred dollar fine. That's
straight. Ohio, New York, Mary
land and New Jersey licenses are
good there, but West virginian S
don't 20. We soak them, and they
don't recognize us.
New jersey whacked on the
license tax until tourists were driven
to select different route in getting
into New York City. 1t used to be
that hundreds of machines went
through Jersey every day into the
metropolis. Now they keep on the
Pennsylvania side until they cross
the line into New York State.
"A New Jersey court recently
handed down an interesting decision
on the auto license question. The
court found that the purpose of the
license and the tagging of machines
was for the identification of the driver,
and that the amount of the license
fee should not be in excess of the
cost of registration and tagging.
The jurists thought two dollars was
about the proper charge. You see,
the machines are taxed just the same
as other property. The license gives
them no extra privileges and of course,
it is not right to assess the double
tax.
''Interfercs with interstate COM
merce: Why, yes, it seems to, and
some day the constitutionality of this
enormous license fee will be tested.
That New jersey court said that the
license tax was simply police regu-
lation, and that the charge should
not be in excess at the cost. And
the court was right. 1t may be some
satisfaction for them to know it.
Pass the information along, will you:
