How to Obey Maryland Law /.
To Regulate Motor Car Lights

For the benefit of motorists the
Automobile Club OF Maryland has
obtained from the State board OF
motor inspection q statement OF
how the headlight law might be
complied with The statement fol-
lows:
The Society OF Automobile Engip-
GERS has been endesvoring to solve
the headlight problem for the past
several years. spending as high as
$4,000 In experiments, with the re-
suit that the best solution is that
headlights shall be so designed, de-
Elected or arranged that no por-
ton OF the beam OF reelected light
projected to the left OF the axis Of
the vehicle when measured seventy
five feet or more ahead of the lamps
shall rise above forty-two inches
from the level surface on which the
vehicle stands under all conditions
of load
1t Is intended that this law shall
be universal, q number Of States
already having adopted the same.
II the motorist does not wish to
60 to the expense OF purchasing q
nonglaring lens, he can comply
with the law by having his head
light brackets tilted forward from
one-eighth to one-half inch, as may
be necessary. so that the reflected
beams of light will not rise more
than forty-two inches from the
level surface on which the automo-
bile Is standing at q distance Of
seventy-five feet In front of the
car.
A clear glass lens may be used
when this Is done. and will con-
form with the law. f.
II, on the other hand. the mo-
torist does not care to bend his
lamp brackets, he must then pro-
coed as follows, In order to comply
with the law:
FIrst-See that the headlight
lamp brackets are not bent 20 that
the axis of the front edge OF the
headlamp. when mounted on the
brackets and measured up and down
from side to side. will be perpen-
dicular and horizontal, respectively.
to the level surface upon which the
car stands.
Second-See that the electric
bulbs in the headlamps are both OF
the same candlepower and prefer
ably Of the same manufacture.
ThIrd-See that the electric
bulbs in the headlamps are properly
focused. ..
To do this turn the current into
your headlamps. cover one OF them
up, take on the door of the re-
naming headlamp and by means
OF the focusing device move the
bulb either backward or forward
until the reflected beam Of light
ahead of the car is parallel with
the road. Then remove the door
OF the other headlamp and follow
the same instructions Then while
the doors are still removed see
whether the reflected beams from
both lamps are parallel with each
other and parallel to the level sur
face upon which the car stands.
II so, both lamps are properly
focused.
Next put on the doors OF the
lamps containing the nonBlaring
lens you have decided to use, and
your equipment then should comply
with the law.
The Osgood lens has had the COM
plete approval OF the Commission

LATEST CADILLAC
MODEL EMBODIES
CLEVER DEVICES

AdherinE to the eIght-cylinder "
type high-speed, high-efficiency prin'
, cipIe, which It first introduced anc
which has characterized its product
for the last three years, the Cadillac
Motor Car Company announces tha'
its new model incorporates further
refInements Of that principle. Inc
company now enters upon its fourth
years production of eight-cylindeI
cars, OF which It has already bull
5000.
The new model Is to be known as
| Type 81. 1t comprises ten body
4 STYLES, and the Cadillac Company be-
lieves that in these It has summed
up motoring preferences so far az
this is possible with q standard line
The body types are seven-passengeE
touring, four-passenger phaeton road
ster, town limousine, town landaulet
brougham, completely inclosed and
practically a convertible car; COW
ertible victoria; limousine, imperial
limousine. and landaulet
From the mechanical standpoint
perhaps the most important change
| is the use of detachable cylinder
heads. These are secured to the
cylinder blocks by twenty nuts each,
and are made gas and water tight
by special copper-asbestos gaskets.
The detachable heads make for great
er accuracy in manufacture without
sacrificing the compactness, lightness
and rigidity OF the former construc-
ton. They permit easy access to
valves and pistons without removing
the cylinder blocks and greatly facili-
tate the removal OF carbon deposits.
For TiItinE Headlights
A feature of the new cars which
Il is felt will be particularly appre-
ciated. Is the device for fitting the
headlight reflectors. This device
eliminates glare from the eyes OF on
coming motorists, by lowering the
direction OF light 1t Is operated by
the driver by means of small lever
attached to the steering post. Where
as ordinary devices dim the light the
Cadillac innovation complies with the
law by eliminating tine glaref yet
, utilities all the light and directs 1t
down on the road, where 1t Is most
needed when meeting other vehicles.
An automatic raising device for the

Automobiles Do Not Differ So
Much From Men

Acknowledgement of them-do not differ
greatly from men. Most men are capable of
strenuous physical endeavor-in their youth.
At that period of life no strain of severe work
bothers them. No tense pressure weakens
~ them.
But in after years-the slightest unusual
task, the veriest physical endeavor implies
through significant warnings, ego slow-be

You have seen a man as young as forty
putting laboriously after sprint to catch a
train. Or you have seen him, stout, il-condi-
toned and helpless, making no effort to catch
the train at all.
There are men of whom this is not true,
men who, preserved, strong, retain their eff
cheney all through life
And there are automobiles just like mem
some of them-going along year after year,
changing only IN appearance. A little paint

Having a vacation-which, for q

Living in an atmosphere Of auto

our way to a secluded farm far from

ATIANTA'S LOSS ABOUT $3,50O,00O
Approximately 10 Blocks and 1868
Buildings in Burned Area.

Atlanta, Ga, May 22.-With re-
lief work under way and $4,000 sub
scrbed for immediate aid to the SUI
ferers from yesterdays $3,50000
fire, it is predicted that work of re-
building the burned section extending
through the nor heastern section Of
the city, will begin in a week.
Telephone linemen went through
the devasted district today cutting
wires that might endanger lives
while the street car company began
TO clear it's wires and city wagons t.
move the rubbish from the streets.
All day separated families were
brought together lily workers of the
local Red Cross, and their furniture
was hauled away from vacant lots
and from sidewalks around the fire
lines. A hail storm and heavy rain
in the afternoon caught much of the
household effects unsheltered and
added several thousand dol ars to the
loss.
The flames destroyed 1868 build
ings, according to calculation Of real
estate and insurance men, who went
over the ground today Most Of the
structures were homes, from lowly ne
gro cabins to substantial rosiden' e3
Apartment houses, several churches
and several retail stores were burn
ed.
There was little or no immediate
suffering Food and sleeping places
were provided for all. Churches and
public buildings We're used to house
the homeless and store furniture
Guard duty still was maintained to-
night and perfect order was reported.
This and the single death and COM
paratively few injuries were subjects
of much favorable comment Less
than hundred persons were injured
during the 10-hour blaze and their
injuries were chiefly minor ones. The
only death was that of woman, who
died of shock after losing her home
