Of work and to facilitate the record
ing of registrations of automobile IL
censes. one of the most modern in
dex cabinets has been installed in
the office of the secretary of state.
The cabinet is large enough to &C
commodate the registration of $4,000
cars, each one recorded under three
separate heads. In the first section
the cars are registered according to
license number. in the second, accord
ing to the name of the owner, and in
the third, according to the factory
number stamped on the car or engine
This cross filing is triple assurance
against mistakes. and it is estimated
will save the work of three stenog-
raphers. The outstanding feature OF
the system. however. lies in the fact
that the office can make its automo-
bile report out daily instead of only
once a month.

THE VILLAGE POUND

Mention of live stock about a neigh
boring town brings to mind the days
of a villge pound some twenty years
ago when nearly every citizen owned
a COW and pastured her on the side
streets, or on his neighbours lots. The
Cow scraps between neighbors were
about as regular as the new moon.
Then came the town herd with it's col
lection of cows stringing through
streets, across lawns, fi~owerbeds, etc,
breaking a few boards in the old
wooden sidewalks, and leaving their
ornamental marks for men to cuss at.
And when a fellows patience finally
gave way, he called the Marshal and
had the other fellows COW put in the
pound. There were no telephones in
those days, but somehow everybody
knew it-and said it was right, or
awful, according to friendship. Guess
Miller must be a city-at least the
pound and town herd are both gone.
