do you think Of the Zimmerman
note?" He appealed to Clerk of, the
Court Frank A Moss who passed the
interrogative along to several others.

there came into the hands of the

minister an Mexico stating that if the
United States did not remain neutral
the imperial government. would give
aid to Mexico that she might retake
her lost provinces, Texas, New Mexi-
co and Arizona. Germany soon founQ
she had plenty to do on the other

SEVERAL WAYS ID
 CHEAT CAR THIEF
Suggestions to Owners About Locking Autos to
 Prevent Theft

Car thieves are laughing at locks or
 automobiles these days. but there are
 many simple little tricks which auto owners can do when leaving their cars which will reduce the theft hazard al most to nothing. Dealers who handle the Liberty Six have recently been pro vided bv the service department of thetr oompany with a number of valuable sug- sestions on preventing the theft of cars While these suggestions were intendeu for the use of Liberty owners, they ap- plv to many other makes besides the Liberty.
 The first suggestion is to remove the distributor rotor. It is the easiest thii's |, +he car to get at--certainly easlei .bsr some of the cumbersome wheel ,ools row in use The removal Of thi9 rotor absolutely prevents the sp@i "' ,,i+bo,,t which no gasoline engine eau -,,ss;h,v he run. Moreover, there are .o,,a-.I different kinds of rotors. maklns it ranch harder for thief to De equl lppoa with all the varieties in oroer lo ','e 4la +be right one on hand. Even suppoaire that half of all the auto thieves - equipped with a complete Set o adncad +ha Theft hazard would still be reouo71 30 per cent. r;c+uresoue ,.a of noise resembling a "est7n town being shot up in the WliueS' ,,1 Rv crossing spark plug wires No Civ or wires 3 and on the LlpeitS

Very few families today would think of trying to keep house without a refrige- rator, but many families are trying to keep house with a refrigerator which has outlived it's usefulness. It pays when buying a refrigerator to buy a good standard make. one that can be de- pended upon. The difference in price between a cheap refrigerator and a good refrigerator is small. while the differ ence in years of service is great.

her front yard at Raleigh, N. c. a wo-
man living with her seventh husband,
has buried siXprevious ones, each grave
marked with marble slab. This re-
minds US that the woman over which
her travelling companion got shot t'other
day by DR., Campbell, was named Vera
Morte, which in French means SURE
DEATH. So what show has a poor man
got anyhow?
Some "home folks have put ban
on late style republican" dances down
at Phoenix and their objectional fea-
lures, such as close body contact like
the bunny hug" touching of cheeks,
turkey trot, duck waddle, neck hold,
fox trot and SISSY boy lock STEP" A

that democrats don't dance anything
but square dances.

the money over to the government for
adjustment with the profteering com

 Legislation providing for increase in the salaries of the tax collector, tax as- sessor, probate judge, sheriff, clerk or the circuit court, judges and members of the board of revenue has been proposed
