in half; every man who drives ma
chine daily can ask himself if part of
his riding cannot be obviated.
eff people continue to be thought
less and unwilling to do their pat
riotic bit in this respect, it may be
necessary for the United States to
take drastic action, which will stop
excessive pleasure use of all auto
mobiles.
st is estimated that one-half of the
gasoline used in the United States
Q,250,0 100000 gallons) is used in plea
sure riding. In my opinion judicious
use of the automobile for this purpose
will cut this amount of gasoline in
twain, which would mean the saving
of more than million gallons each
day in the year"
Director Manning concluded with
the statement that this warning does
not mean that automobile owners
should lay up their cars or that any
one should change his mind about
purchasing a car.

WET SPARKS BURN BRIGHTLY
Night Waterman Kept Busy Chasing
Sparks on Roof.

According to the story as reported
by party whose name was promised
immunity from publication, viz, Fred
Brent, the west part of the city APP
peared to be threatened by fire again
Friday night. Jenkins, employed as
night man at the Johnston Brent
livery barn, and whose name must al
so be kept secret, discovered sparks
on the roof of the barn about mid
night. Immediately he secured lad
der and bucket of water and scaled
the building. When near enough to
the sparks he doused his bucket of
water over them and nearly fell from
the ladder when some of the sparks
flew up into the air and started in a
zig gag course for the roof on the P.
E. Roberts barn. The rest of the
sparks turned over a few times and
continued to burn undiminished by the
shower bath.
jenkins made repeated trips up the
ladder with water and thoroughly
soaked the barn with no apparent re-
suit. Failing to discover any signs of
smoke he finally went on to the roof
and was totally dumfounded when he

made his first acquaintance with
specimen of the ampyridae family of
the photinus of photuris specie. In
other words he saw his first lightning
bug or common fire fly. These in
sects are not common to this part of
the country but droves of them are
now coming in from some where.
After discovering the cause of the
sparks and the fact that they were
not dangerous to the property he was
guarding he apologized to the bugs
and withdrew to the stable office to
dry his clothes which had been soaked
from the dripping Weiser
Signal.

AN END TO JOY RIDES
Army and Navy Needs Much Case
line-Warning sent From Washington

Warning of the possibility of dras-
tic action by the federal government
to stop excessive use of automobiles
for pleasure during the war in order
that the gasoline needs of the United
States and it's allies may be met is
given In statement issued by Direc-
tor Van H. Manning of the bureau
of mines, in which he asks the CO.
operation of Automobiles in stop
ping the practice.
Enough gasoline to care for the
requirements of America and
perhaps of the allies will be saved, in
the opinion of Mr.. Manning, if auto
mobile owners of the country will
stop unnecessary and extravagant
pleasure riding and if owners and
dealers handle this fuel in careful
and economical manner.
"There must be no dilly-dallying
about this supply of gasoline, and
there won't be- he said.
at is estimated that the army and
navy will need for the year 100000
900 gallons, and there are two ways
of obtaining it. In the first place the
joyrider whose pleasure is obtained
by covering many miles at high speed
can voluntarily give this up; the man
who takes his family on Sunday for
