Remember back in 1921 ten years the troleys we
used haveharged you eight cents per ve tokens
for thrtyfve cents, and gave quantity price OF
seventy cents for ten? Remember the transfers used

tracks used to be. #. E Fu
Remember when the people began to realize that the
without an automobile wasn't getting all that was
coming to hm Remember when people used to try to do
business and enjoy life without ear? Remember, some
business houses tsl kept a few horses? ..rs y =.
Remember the trouble the District had with traffic that

Remember how Pearce Rayner organized the Motor Corps

ADVICE FOR AUTO|ST
ON BETTER LIGHTING
Proper Adjustment Of Lenses
and RefIectors Matter for
Expert Study.

Thousands Of motorists who drive at
night never think that their head
lights might be made to give them a
better light. They get along with
what light they have and when 1t Is
not good. they lay 1t to the darkness
of the night. the atmosphere, the age
Of the bulbs, or something else.
It is rather too much to expect that
the average driver win become suf-
ficiently expert in headlight adjust.
through his own efforts. The best
plan is to consult q mechanic who
has made q study Of headlight ad-
justment.
You are likely to be getting too
much light In the air and not enough
on the road, throwing too much glare
in the faces Of approaching drivers.
You arc likely TO have your lights ad-
justed to illuminate the road too close
to the car. or too far to one side or
the other.
Different lenses and different re-
Electors call for different adjustments
and proper adjustment Il a matter for
an experienced operator. II your car
comes to you with one type OF lens
and you change to another type. you
may throw the lighting out Of adjust
ment and 20 get q poorer driving light
with better lenses.
Study up all the rules on headlight
adjustment and do your best to fol.
low them, and then when you have
satisfied yourself that you can do no
better. 60 to an expert and see how
far wrong you are.

New Method Found
To Foil Auto
Thieves

There is a means Of obtaining
additional security for an automo-
bile kept in q garage where there
Is danger Of breaking in, or where
one might be kept standing for
long periods in q vacant lot A
length Of one-inch, or larger, iron
pipe has . tee screwed to one end
with two short lengths screwed
into the run Of the tee. This pipe
Is buried in the ground about two
feet, projecting about eighteen
inches.
II the garage is being built and
is to have q concrete floor, the
pipe must be buried before laying
the concrete Otherwise the tee
will have to be omitted, unless
large hole is broken through the
floor, the pipe being driven into
the ground as far as possible.
A hole is drilled through the
upper end and a shackle put
through or q ring bolt riveted in,
to which . heavy chain is at
tached. This chain is looped
around q wheel or axle and tn,
end secured by q paddock.

AUTO TRADE SHOWS
SOME |MPROvEME
Fall Demand From Farmers
Expected to Increase Sales
Of Trucks.

Gradual Improvement In the sutomo-
bile business is shown In trade reports
received at the National Automobile
Chamber of Commerce directors
meeting this week.
Automobile shipments for August
show a 2 per cent gain over July. and
reach 70 per cent Of last years August
business. Normally the August sales
sre less than July.
The South. the Pacific Coast and the
Middle West are registering the most
sales, with the chief business coming
from urban centers.
The seasonal decline in sales is ex-
pected for fall and winter, though i'm
provement over the same period q
year ago In looked for. Farmers have
teen liquidating their crops and the
money from the harvest this fall is
expected to stimulate rural demand for
cars and trucks needed on farms.

Washington. June 21.-A boom to business will be hastened by a de cision of Federal Reserve banks to cut rehscount rates. Officials are firm in this opinion. Money VIII be more readily available to borrowers at easier rates.
 The Federal Reserve Board has reports from all districts showing ur- gent demand for new funds. A great amount of domestic development work, requiring new capital. is report ed to Governor Harding.
 With easier money market condl- lions Government fiscal authorities in communications to bankers have stressed the necessity of giving prior fty to American enterprises The Fed eraI Reserve Board has scented dan ger in the tendency of some banking quarters to give need to the demands of foreign enterprises
 From reports to the Board, officials learn that many foreign concerns have shaped their affairs with view to obtaining their financial support from American bankers
 Member banks of the Federal Re serve systems have been cautioned that this foreign demand creates a situation which may be fraught with danger to American industrial and agricuafura1 interests unless bankers

 The attitude of government fiscal officers, made plain in latest bulletins to bankers, reflects a purpose to look out for America first and to avoid highly speculative ventures, involving the ueir1g up of American credit that should be employed in so-called es- sential industries at home

Grand Forks July 10. A committee
composed Of Representatives O. b.
'Burtness, first district, and Secre-
taries Farrar and Macarthur, repre-
senting Senators McCumber and
Ladd respectively, called upon the
Secretary last week and delivered in
person the invitation extended by the
state fair association, The request
was signed by Secretary Montgomery
Of the association, Usher L. Burdick,
president Of the North Dakota Farm
Bureau, and many others interested
in the state fair.
Mr.. Wallace expressed great inter-
est in the proposal and assured Con-
gresham Burtness and the commit
tee that he would attend the fair if
official business at that time permits
him to do SO. Definite announcement
regarding this may be possible little
later.
It is considered by those interested
in agriculture that a visit by Mr.. Wal
lace to the state upon such an. occa-
sion would be Of utmost Importance.
The new secretary is a lifelong stu
dent Of the subject and for him to
view at first hand many Of the things
he would see at the state fair might
tend to establish better understand
ing between official Washington and
the growers of the Northwest - an
understanding that has not always
existed heretofore.
