Be Careful How You Trade With
Strangers.

Our folks should be careful how
they trade with strangers. and pur-
chase automobiles unless they know
to make the sale.
Information comes from Spring
Hope that Mr.. P. C. Vestal of that
place is out SO $500 on account of the
purchase of five cars from three
young men who stated that they
bought them in Richmond from par
ties who were dissatisfied and sold
them at a bargain.
The men did not come the same
day, but it seems that one of them
brought car on Thursday last and
returned to Richmond where it later
developed that they were stealing
them from the streets where the
owners left them. Another brought
a car down on Friday and sold this
one also to Mr.. Vestal. under the
market, of course. Another one
brought another car on Saturday
In the meantime the first two re-
turned with two more cars and sold
them to Mr. Vesta1 They promised
to bring him more, but since that
time they have not put in an ap-
nearance. but an officer from Rich
mond did, and some of the cars had
been sold. but the officer went over
the county, and securing them, took
them back to Richmond. OF course
Mr. vestal must make good the pur-
chase price TO those who bought
from him. In the lot were three
Fords, a Studebaker, and Buick.

Moved to Town

We heard of tenant farmer who
moved with his family to town today
and left a place to which he moved
last year with absolutely nothing.
With not enough clothes for his
family consisting of eleven people.
Last year he cleared $4,000 and
brings to town with him forty bar
rels of corn and considerable meat.
The chances are good that the end
of the year will find him moneyless,
meat1ess and clothesless as he was
last year, while if he had stayed on
the farm he would have owned it in
a few years, or another just as good.

Can't Violate This ordinance

Mr. Editor:
For some time we have advocated
the passage of law prohibiting the
manufacture or owning any motor
driven machine that could run over
fifteen mills per houn We thought
that would solve the speed laws,
We find that small town has
gone us one better and really
solved the question. There had been
an epidemic of violation of the
speed laws, so the town commission
ers met and made the speed limit
seventy-five miles per hour; and in
the language of one of the natives
darn few of them can violate it," We
would respectfully call the atten-
ton of your city fathers to the above
law, for we do not believe that any
of the speeders who use the 'tBroad
street speedway" are at present max.
ing over sixty miles per hour.

1t would be very wise when receiv-

from your broker to read the contract

particularly items such as list price,
number of passengers, whether driven
by owner or chauffeur, whether used
for pleasure or business calls or
whether driven by the assured alone
or by any other member Of the family.
The rate is affected by these partic-
ulars and therefore this should be
noted very carefully. e
Under fire and theft policy cover
ing an automobile the contract par
ticularly provides that in the event
the car is stolen immediate notice is
to be given to the police IN the vicinity
where the car has disappeared. The

would be to send registered letter to
