manly to weep. To lose such man at such
crisis is no common calamity to the
world: our country mourns her father.
The Almighty Disposer Of human events
has taken from us our greatest bene-
factor and ornament. 1t becomes us to
submit with reverence to him. who
'maketh darkness His pavilion.
With patriotic pride. we review the
life of our Washington. and compare
him with those of other countries who
have been pre-eminent in fame. Ancient
and modern names are diminished before
him. Greatness and guilt have too often
it is brilliant. The destroyers of ma
tons stood abashed at the majesty of
his virtue. 1t reproved the intemperance
of their ambition and darkened the splen-
dor of victory. The scenes closed. and
we are no longer anxious lest misfortune
should sully his glory; he has travelled
on to the end of his journey and carried
with him an increasing weight Of honor;
he has deposited it safely where msfor-
tune cannot tarnish it, where malice can
not blast 1t. Favored Of heaven. he de-
parted without exhibiting the weakness
of humanity; magnanimous in death. the
darkness Of the grave could not OBJ
scure his brightness.
Such was the man whom We deplore.
Thanks to God. his glory is consummat-
ed Washington vet lives on earth in his
spotless example-his spirit Is in heaven.
Let his countrymen consecrate the
memory of the heroic general, the pa
triotic statesman, and the virtuous sage;
let them teach their children never to
forget that the fruits of his labors and
his example are their Inheritance

O|R|C|BLE HEADLIGHT
INVENTED BY UTAAV
Company Is Establishing
Agencies in Every Section
of Country.

Many Salt Lake people, both motor
car owners md others, have been in
terested in the Petty dirigible head
light which has been attached to
number Of cars that have been seen
on the streets here. This device was
patented by Wallace r. Petty, Utah
man, on January 81, 1913, and consists
OF en- attachment connecting the steer
ing gear of a motor with the head
lights in such n way that when the
wheels of the motor car turn toward
either side the headlights turn WIN
them and light up the road ahead oil
the car. 49,
The Petty DiIigible Auto Headlight
company was organized AT Price, otah'
tiou OF the device was first made
public. 1t was capitalized for S2oo,o0o,
with r million shares OF stock whose
par value WAS - cents per share lt
is claimed that over half million
shares OF this stock have already been
sold. This stock, il is also claimed,
has been pooled, the owners agreeing
not TO dispose of their stock until such
time as the business has been placed
on a dividend paying basis.
The company is at present engaged
in contracting for the manufacture and
sale of the device throughout the
United States by local companies or
ganized for that purpose. The. inter,
mountain territory has been disposed
of 10 z concern which is manufacturing
the headlights in Salt Lake, and nego-
tiations were recently closed with an
Iowa company for the manufacture OF
the headlights in the middle west and
their distribution throughout the states
of Iowa, Minnesota, the two Dakotas,
Missouri, Wisconsin and Nebraska.
Territory is being contracted for on
tho basis of cash bonus and royalty
to the parent company Of 81 on each
device manufactured.
President w, G. Snow OF the Petty
company, in speaking OF the distrlbu-
tion of territory, stated:
We feel that we have now estab-
lished our company pretty firmly.
The Petty headlight is now being
manufactured in Salt Lake, and
arrangements have been completed
for its manufacture in the middle
western states west Of the MlssIs-
sippi river. Hereafter territory
viii be disposed OF in smaller lots,
for the states that are left are the
more thickly populated ones where
there is a large percentage Of auto"
mobile owners. We shall endeavor
TO have the Petty headlight made
part of the regular equipment
on number of cars in 1915, and
the Studebaker company has al
ready taken the matter under ad
visement We intend to dispose
Of about 100000 more shares of
stock and hold the remainder,
about $4,000 shares, in the treas
ury.

have used the device for night driving
on country roads claim TO have found
it very useful A Studebaker Hsix'
