OUR LINE OF DEFENSE

1t is moment of tense nerves
ready to slip out of the trench
at the word of command-and at
the enemy. Our men on the firing
line are physically unfit for military
service because only about one
man out of five was chosen to
endure the hardships of this fear
ful war. But we must not be con-
tent with 20 per cent in physical
health of our American youth.
We cannot afford to lose four
men out of five because of physi-
cal unfitness. Such weaknesses
can be cured. Many times the
kidneys are to blame.

Notice to AutomobilIsts

In order to avoid the rush and con-
fusion, incident to issuing automobile
licenses at the end of the year and to
insure deliveries by January 1st
authorized by law. the office of the
Secretary of State will begin work on
November 10th for next years bust
ness. From that date until December
1st, applicants may receive their old
numbers.
When it is realized that the law for
new tags is effective on January 1st
it is strongly urged that applications
be made as early as possible. The
number of cars licensed to date this
year is 10. 660 With attention and
cooperation of car owners, all licenses
can be issued on time. But not if
delayed until late in the year. No
reservations of special numbers will
be granted. If however, applicant
neglects TO make application before
December 1st. he loses the privilege
of securing any sepcial number and
will be oOliged to accept any numbers
not then issued. This action is taken
in order that the office and notaries
assisting may be better able to get
out licenses on time.
EVERETT C. JOHNSON,
Secretary of State.
