tion is designed to prevent automo-
biles used in mountain touring from
running backwards down steep roads
should anything go wrong with the
regular brakes.
1t is the invention of George Stick
ney of Oregon. 1t consists of har-
row-like frame suspended from a
crosswise shaft pivoted to the chassis
frame directly back of the engine and
lowered into contact with the road by
means of a system of levers controlled
by hand lever and notched quad
rant in the drivers cab. The sharp,
tooth-like points of the harrow dig in
TO the ground and hold the car In
place until the engine can be started
again and the clutch thrown in. They
also serve to hold the car until it gets
under way. This eliminates the dan
ger of starting under the same condi-
tion without the device, in which case
the conventional brakes must be re-
leased before the clutch is thrown in,
This might allow the car to gain suffi
cient backward momentum to prevent
the engine from starting and permit
the car to drop off the road if the
brakes cannot hold it.-Popular Sci
ence Monthly.

Many deaths have occurred in noun
tain touring due to the engine going
dead while on steep grade because
of the drivers attempt to go up in
higher gear than he should. When
the engine stops, the car slides back
wards and in many cases goes over
the edge of the road if the brakes are
not in the best possible condition and
the driver does not apply them with
out losing his head

harrow used by farmers and drawn

Farmer Of Today
His Opinion Is Sought and
Respected

Urban sophistication in the cities
poked fun, before the war, at the
farmer He was supposed to be un-
couth and gullible-a child of nature.
He chewed a straw and pulled his
beard and creased his boots and rose
by lamplight, and was a man with
hoe among the herds and orchards,
man to whom the great round world
was blank page or distant myth.
Now that is changed, says writer
in the Philadelphia Ledger. The far
mer is an applied scientist, whose opin-
ion is sought and respected, with
whose hand, as it Is busy or idle, is
the feeding or starving of the nations.
For millions during the war life has
been a grim, unmitigated quest of
food. The farm has had to yield by
intensive cultivation many times its
former produce, and marketing in hap
hazard ways has had to yield to me-
thodic and speedy transportation.
Farm work and farm life today utilize
every last development of engineering.
The machinery has revolutionized
farm labor, and electricity and gaso-
line are the greatest of all hired
hands. The motorcar, the tractor, the
dairy machinery, the telephone are
commonplaces where once they were
unknown.
The demobilized fighter no longer
regards indifferently or scornfully the
chance the farm holds out to him.
The fields are clamoring for him
fields where the battle is for life and
not for destruction.

Rin Girl for That.

That tooth was certainly annoying.
Miss c., the primary room teacher
of the A. school, put her finger
into her mouth to discover the cause
of this annoyance. Ollie bright
faced little pupil noting the act sud-
denly asked: Teacher, how old are
you?' Choosing to ignore his impert-
inence she made no answer He was
not to be dauuted, however With an
expression Of scorn he said: 81 know
you're over twenty, and just think still
sucking your finger"

Ending Trouble.

A great many car owners in search
ing for trouble create more than thel
find. BY that is meant that indiscrim
mate changing of adjustments usual
Iy gets the operator further away

The best piece of advice that can be

WORTH MENTIONING

Groveling isn't humility. Your
Creator expects you to stand
just as high as he has given you
power to stretch.
The tendency of the times may
be all right, but even the dol
lars are more slippery than they
used to be.
So many fellows feel bolder
when notching the log than
when they get hold of the saw.
Ordinarily a task is not divis-
ible by time.

1t is a very good plan to shift the

Ed Harper has returned from
Littleton, satisfied with the oppor-

Mrs. Frank Graham and Mrs.
M. Sidney returned the first OF the
week from a visit with friends in
the valley.
Mrs. Ada Post Dickinson return
ed to her home in Denver, the last
of the week, after short visit here
with friends.
Our weather is ideal again after
a light fall of snow Saturday. 1t
reminds one of Indian summer we
used to have in early days.
Mrs. Cristo, a former resident
of Georgetown, but now OF Irlnl-
dad, was attending to business
matters here the first of the week.
Judge ]. A. Wilkins of Idaho
Springs is attending court, and
incidentally meeting his friends,
who are legion in this neck of the

Joe Goodland is here from St.

He thinks there is no place like
Georgetown, and says that COM
ing here is like coming home after
long absence.
Mrs. August Horstmann pre-
scented her husband with an assist

About 130 licenses for hunters
of large game have been issued

On Friday, October 10, the peo-
pie thruout the county are invited
to attend concert and dduce
giaen by the ladies of the Catholic
church at the Opera House. No
expense has been spared to make
it a successt A rare treat is pro-
missed TO lovers of m usic, as sing
ers of wide celebrity will be
brought from Denver, and efforts
are being made to have local talent
represented on the program. 1t
can safely be said that with such
performers, the concert will be a
treat worth a good deal more than
the price of admission. A supper
will be served by the ladies of the
church, and as Leach's orchestra
has been engaged for the dance to
follow, it is needless TO predict
that the social part OF the affair
will be success.

Governor to Organize
State Departments
Under New Code Law

Lincoln, May l6.-In a confer
ence with newspaper men in the
executive Offices Friday, in answer
to question whether he expected
to go ahead and organize the de-
partments>of the state under the new
code law irrespective of the refer
endum action, Governor McKelvie
said there was nothing else to do.
THE legislature directed that
these departments should be organ
lied and have no right to antici-
pate the result of the referendum.
| shall make my appointments of
secretaries probably before ! leave
for New York next Monday. If the
referendum petitions receive The re-
CURED number of signatures, why of
course the matter will stand as it
was when the petitions were filed. If
they do not receive the required
number, then the completion of the
organization can be made in time"
In answer to another question as
to the sentiment as he found it out
in the state regarding the code bill,
the governor said that wherever he
had spoken, as soon as the people
came to know just what the code
bill did and had the matter thor
oughly explained, there appeared to
be unanimous sentiment that the
new law should be tried out.
In his opinion the people have
been ! misinformed regarding the
code bill and have been prejudiced
against it through transformation
given out by parties interested in
killing the law.

ception of the boys when they

received letters from Governors
Gardner. Shoup and Campbell, re-
spectively, of three states named,
who enthusiastically commend the
plan. Governor Allen of Kansas has
appointed a special committee to
go to New York, but Governor
McKelvie desires the honors Of
being on such a committee to be
delegated to anybody in Nebraska
who wants to go. He does not
want to leave anybody out.

According to information re-
ceived, the first troops will begin to
