Be FIXED FOR
THE BIG FAIR
Instructions to be Fol
lowed to Save Ac-
cidents

We want to suggest that every
body make preparations for the fair
and fix their cars so that they will
be more likely to be free from acct
dents during the jam. We suggest
that you give your car the once over
to see If the horn, lights, brakes and
DINNERS are all in working order.
A large percentage of the cars that
travel on the roads and streets have
something the matter with them and
during the fair it will be more dan
gerous than usual to be using a car
that is defective in any of the re-
spects we have mentioned.
If your car throws a very bright
light be sure that you use your dim
mers, if you have DINNERS, and if
you have no DINNERS, see if you can
have them put on. We don't want
anybody to be taken to the hospital
or to the cemetery just because
somebody has been careless in these
matters. When you get in to town
during the fair and find a big crowd,
remember that the streets are paved
and the car slips along rather rapidly
and you may exceed the speed limit
before you know it. 1t is good plan
to put your gear on intermediate
and drive very slowly. While watch
ing for cars and people in front Of
you, do not forget that there are
likely to be cars coming along be-
hind you and if you stop suddenly,
somebody is going to get bumped.
Keep your muffler closed and be as
quiet as you can in the use of your
car. If you are speeding it up to get
out of town at IL or 1 o'clock in the
morning try not to wake everybody
in the hotels or in blocks near you.

ing between the corners. AS you
start across the street, look to your
left until you get to the center of the
street and then look to your right
until you get across. Try to break
yourself of the habit of looking both
ways at once. 1t is not at all neces-
sary. No car is going to approach
you from the right when crossing the
first half of the street, nor from the
left when crossing the second half
so you do not have to watch in those
directions at all.
Let all members of the family
learn where the rest room is and
especially the children. If anybody
gets lost it should be understood
that they find their way to the rest
room and wait there until other
members of the family come there to
find them. People will get separated
and have no understanding as to
where they are to meet. Use the
rest room, and ii you do not wish to
wait there, leave a note for your
friend telling him or her where to
look for you. A good many people
can park their cars in the city park
where the tourists have been camp
ing. The tourist trade is dropping
off now. We suggest that you cut
out this article and keep it for refer
ence and read it before you start
for the fair. We want you all to
do your level best to prevent acct
dents and disappointments the week
of/the fair.

When parking your car be sure mo-
water hydrants. Do not leave i

Keep some kind Of mark or tae
on your car so it is easily identified
When putting packages in your cal
be sure and not put them in some
other fellows car that looks about
like yours or that is in the same part
of the street as yours. Be equally
careful not to get into some other
fellows car thinking 1t is yours.
Take look at the car and make sure
whose it is before you get in. Some
thing might happen to you If you
made such mistake. The Mystery

scale and proposes to protect people
in the ownership of their cars and
to protect them also In possession

age, had better be awfully sure that
it is his car, his coat or his package,
for members Of the Mystery club
might have their eyes on him at that
moment and know exactly what to
do with him. When driving your car
thru town, try not to pick the most
crowded thoro-fare; take the more
quiet streets, so far as it is con-
venient. If you have to stop in the
crowded places to let passengers out,
or to take on passengers and pack
ages remember that somebody is
likely to want to pass in second.
Avoid such stops as much as you
can. 1t is dangerous to step out of
a car in the open street where cars
are passing.
When travelling the streets afoot
remember to cross the streets only
at corners and to go straight across.
Do not travel on the slant. There
is no law to prevent your crossing
the street and at any slant you want
to, but it is much more dangerous
for you and If you get hurt the re-
sponsibility all rests with you and
not with the driver that hit you. If
you do your street crossing at the
corners and go square across each

Editors Note-This is the sixth and final of series of six articles that deal with the memorable battles fought in Eu- rope more than a century ago by Thomas Molineaux, the first American fighter to invade foreign territory in quest of a world championship
 Tom Molineaux set a terrific pace in his second fight for the worlds cham pionship against Tom Cribb staged Sep tcmber 2S, 1S11, in England.
 Realizing that if victory was to come to him at all, it must be in the opening 20 minutes of fighting, the American ne- gro tore into the British champion with the first call of time" For Molineaux knew, when contrasting his own condi- ton with that of Cribb that in a long fight that condition would tell and that he would be certain loser.
 So the negro banked his all on fu- rious inaugural onslaught His hope was that he could beat Cribb into helpless ness before he had expended the limited amount of endurance within him. It was a good plan, in view of Molineaux's con- dtion, and it would have succeeded in all probability if Tom Cribb of that day hadn't been one of the most superbly conditioned ringmen of all time.
