REGISTER AUTOS
= At HALF CHARGE {
NEWoLAW WILL BE MADE USE OF
BY MANY PROSPECTIVE PUR-
= cHAsERs OF CARS.

Local auto dealers are expecting that
the business after August first will be
somewhat enhanced over what it Is at
present. The reason for this Is
ascribed to the new law relative to the
cost Of registering after that period.
Inquiries are being received daily at
the state automobile department rela-
tive to the new legislation which pro
vides that all autos purchased after
August 1 may be registered for the re-
mainder of the year at half rates. New
application blanks have been prepared
by Secretary Hayward in which space
is reserved for those who are able to
take advantage of the half rates. Some
are of the opinion that this new rate
went into effect July 1 instead of
August 1.
One recommendation made by the
retrenchment and reform committee
at its recent meeting probably will be
adopted in the automobile department.
1t is the installation Of split adding
machine on which the number of the
auto and the amount Of tax paid may
be recorded at the same time with
only the tax being added
The department claims to have found
! "joker" in the list Of recommended
lions by the reform committee. The
committee recommended a new form
Of application blank in which no pro-
vision was made for fractional horse
power For instance, an auto with
PAN horsepower would be registered
as "a horsepower. 1t is estimated this
would mean loss Of from ten to f1f-
teen thousand dollars a year. Secre-
tary Hayward has devised a card index
plan Of registering machines by the
factory number, which 1t Is claimed
will save considerable labor in that
department.

Somerset Reports Every thing
Parched and Dry.

Somerset, KY, Aug. 5. The
drought in this community has
reached the alarming stage.
The Kentucky Utilities company
has orderered all water users to
do no more sprinkling. Pittman
creek, from where the town gets
its water supply for the reser-
voir, is so shallow that it is
now necessary to ditch the creek
in order to get water to the
pumping plant.
The ice plant has been closed
pown on account of the lack of
water, and Somerset now is de-
pendent upon shipments from
Cincinnati and other points for
ice supply. No rain of any
moment has fallen here since
April and grass and vege tation
has shriyeled up and is dying.

Swat! What? Why the Fly.

IL the following essay, writ
ten by DIR. Frank Crane, and
reproduced from the New York
Globe, does not make every Crit
tenden Record Press reader en-
thusiastic about fly swatting, we
do not know what will:
IF ten terrible monsters came
every spring to this country,
and all summer long devoured
the people, chewing babies as
we eat blackberries, biting off
the heads of young men, and
sucking the blood of damsels,
goring the aged to death and
stalking about among US as a
lion among the martyrs of the
! Colosseum. we should be up and
doing, militia would march forth
to give them battle, colonies
would wave swords, guns would
belch, and no enthusiasm would
be lacking.
But when the monster is small
and playful and common, we let
him ravage. He doesn't some
how appeal to our imagination.
Yet he does more harm, being
ten billion or so, than any ten
Miontaurs, Polyphemuses, or
dragons that ever posed in the
pages of tradition.
He is the common house-hy.
Although much has been said
about him and his deadliness,
the people are not yet alive to
the enormity Of his crimes.
There are thousands of kitchens
where flies still swarm and in
feet the food. thousands of bab-
les over whose faces and upon
whose lips spread their poison,
thousands of restaurants and
lunch counters where flies are
busy at the work of thinning out
the human race.
The mass of the people do not
yet realize that the fly is the
dirtiest object known, so incon-
ceivably dirty that it is difficult
to write about it for publication.
The fly is the creature of the
dung-heap, the garbage-can
and of all such uncomfortable
things. 1t is from these vile
places he comes as he sails gayly
into your unscreened window.
He enters the human habitation
loaded down with the most dead
ly microbes. He is a micyobe !
sponge.
His feet and legs are covered /
with the seed Of typhus. His
back is burdened with venom.
He is far, far deadlier than the
spider. He is a sort of a little
flying rattlesnake. He is the
enemy of human life.
Screen your windows! If you
cannot get wire screening. use
bar. Screen your doors.
Keep out the fly as you would
keep out the devil, for he is a
levil.
Swat the fly. Keep a fly swat
:er for every room in the house.
Cease your game 70 kill the fly.

that has been against all mankind for
six thousand years. The frst-borns.

This plague did not touch the homes

were passed over, spared. by the AL

Divine command the Israelites made

Since deliverance from the power of
sin and death was of Gods grace. and
not an obligation of justice, He had n
perfect right to determine long in adj
vance that His blessings should~reach
mankind through Abraham's Seed.
Unnoticed by the Jews. the Lord indi-
Gated that Abraham would have two
seeds; one Heavenly, the other an
earthly. Thus He said S"Thy seed
shall be ~ as the stars of heaven,
and (2) as the sand Of the sea shore"
God. in His wisdom, did not explain
to Abraham the significance of this
figurative statement. We. however, are
permitted TO see the meaning even OF
this feature Of the Promise.
The stars represent the Heavenly
Seed of Abraham-Messiah and His
Church The sand of the sea shore
represents the vast multitude who will
be saved from sin and

Let us not fail to note that Divine

was not without blood Indeed. the

is that without the she'd
