RULES OF ROAD TO BE OBJ
SERVED.
Drivers Should At All Times Realize
What Is Necessary To BE Done
In Case An Emergency
Arises. r

One who is familiar with the law
of the state and the rule of the road,
has compiled the following, which
ought to be of genuine value to all.
It should be preserved with care,
and put away in some convenient
spot for future reference. Of course,
most drivers know what to do in
most cases, but they should know
what to do in all cases.
At all times travel on the right
hand side. r
when overtaking and passing an
other vehicle pass to the left and
do not drive to the right until clear
of the vehicle.
Before stopping, turning or chang
ing the course of your car see that
there is sufficient space to make
such movement in safety, give
visible or audible signal to the cross
ing officer if there be one, or to the
drives Of vehicles following, of your
intention to make such movement,
by raising your hand and indicat-
ing with it the direction in which
you wish to turn.
In turning to the right from one
street into another, turn the corner
as near the right hand side as pos
sible Chat is, cut right around close
to the curb).
In tu1ning.to the left from one
street into another, pass to the
right of and beyond the center of the
intersection before turning.
In crossing from one side OF a
street to the other, turn to the left
so as to head in the direction in
which the vehicles are moving.
Don't stop your car unless the
right side is next to, parallel to, and
as near as possible to the curb.
Do not overtake and pass another
vehicle at street intersections in the
business district.
Do not permit the motor of your
car to operate in such manner as
to emit visible and unduly great
amount of steam, smoke or products
of combustion from exhaust pipes.
Never drive car in which the
exhaust of the motor is not mufhed,
and do not cut out the muff1er. 1t
is unlawful to use the cut-out.
1t is unlawful for any person un-
der Is years old to drive a car up
on any street.
Automobiles turning to the right
from one street into another have
the right of way over vehicles travel
ing on the street into which they
are turning.
On the other hand, automobiles
turning to the left into another

FADING ENBLENlS.

It was the practice of Americans
Of many years to observe the Fourth
/, July periodically. Their celebra-
ions did not consist of noise alone.
Attending all the music, cannonad-
ing, bell ringing and marching there
was an intellectual feature that hard
sened the old and inspired the young.
In the unroarious festivities of
~arlier times the treasured emblems
I'D trophies of liberty were all in
sight for one day at least, and by
recurring to the principles of the
Declare ton everybody's knowledge
of and faith in the doctrines that
gave this continent measure of free
dom and justice were strengthened
and renewed. II these emblems are
fading the fault is due more to our
native-born inhabitants, who think
they have learned all the lessons OF
liberty, than to the millions of new
corners, whose minds are still open
and whose eyes are still keen.
What proportion of the rising gen.
Grafton knows or has accepted the
'self-evident truths" upon which the
Republic rests
That all men are created equal.
That they are endowed by their
Creator with certain unalienable
rights?
That among these are life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness?
That to secure these rights gov
ernments are Instituted among
men, deriving their just powers
Il: from the consent of the govern
ed?
And
That whenever any form of govern
ment becomes destructive of
these ends it is the right of the
people to alter or to abolish it,
and to institute new govern
ment, laying it's foundation on
such principles and organizing
it's powers in such form as to
them shall seem most likely to
effect their safety and happiness.
80 Interest in these propositions used
to be cultivated in various ways,
partly as a pleasure, partly as duty.
Today the words are unfamiliar, the
flag itself is infrequently seen, and
Lexington, Bunker Hill, Saratoga,
Valley Forge, Trenton, Savannah,
Cowpens, Kings Mountain and York
town are dimly remembered
Yet we may be sure that Of the
multitudes of recent arrivals in the
United States there are many whose
steps have been guided by the ideals,
symbols and names which to us are
vague or forgotten. The valuable
things that Young Europe is learn
ing here are acquired not from
Young America but from old Ameri-
ca. The landmarks of liberty which
Young America fails to see or ig-
nores are still plain enough to
Young Europe transplanted in
America.
There are fading emblems in the
case of Young Europe also, but they
are of crowns and coronets, thrones
and sceptres, divine right and priv
ilege, shackled press and stiffled
speech. To those who hunger and
thirst for liberty and opportunity
the old American emblems blaze affair.
To those who are surfeited with
liberty or unappreciative of it they
fade and die-New York World.

BIG BALLOT WINNER

FOR GRAND PRIZE
BUT 1T DOES NOT NECESSARILY
FOLLOW THAT HE WILL WIN
1T IL OTHER CANDIDATES
SPEED UP

A letter was received yesterday. the
writer asking. ''Wll the winner OF
the 100000 ballot win the grand
prize Overland?"
1t seems reasonably sure that the
candidate to win the big ballot will
win the Overland automobile.
Ii Is possible, however, that the
winner of one of the smaller ballots
might take a brace after the COM
petitive period and overcome the lead
the 5000, 600 ballot winner may take.
There is no telling who or how
many votes will be required to- win.
The one safe view is that IL Will

European Press Expects
United States will Make
Strong Protest to Austria

LONDON. November 11.-London news
papers continue to devote much space to
the sinking of the Italian steamship An
coma. Many of them editorially express
the opinion that the attacking boat was
German submarine and they arrive at
the usual conclusion that the United
States is more concerned in exacting rep
aration than any other nation.
The Times describes 1t as "the blackest
outrage since the Lusitania."
THE Anacona was outward pound.
says the Times. land therefore could not
have been carrying munitions. we feel
sure that the high spirited Italian nation
will insist upon reparation or revenge
Whether American opinion will be moved
we cannot pretend to surmise. We can
hardly anticipate that the fate OF the
Ancona will do more than the fate OF the
Lusitania. the Arabic or the Hesperian.
Naval writer's believe that the navy
will be able to contend with the sub
marines in the Mediterranean. as was
done in the waters around the British
Isles, and already two of them are re-
ported to have been sunk. but for the
moment there is natural anxiety Tor
the transports which are proceeding
east and because of the possibility of

USE OF DEAD NUMBER"
