Bayfield, county exceeded the

Observe the Request

Washburn automobile owners
are showing their patriotism by
observing the government re-
quest that pleasure riding be
dispensed with on Sunday and
last Sunday very few machines
were to be seen upon the streets
and these were in cases Of
urgent business.
There has been considerable
kick over the government re-
quest by some persons who be-
lieved that 1T would be better to
ration the gasoline as is done
with sugar and other commod-
tiles, but the ment an
swers this by saying that to
inaugurate a card system would
take considerable time and en-
tail great expense and by the
time the order could be enforced
the shortage would be overcome.
The government is depending
upon the people TO give up
pleasure riding on Sunday in
the states east of the Missis-
sippi river aud the request is
having it's desired effect and the
shortage will soon be overcome.
