NeuU Automobile
Lars in Effect

The new automobile law, both as
regards the rate of sped at which au-
tomobiles can travel, and governing
the use Of lights, is in effect today,
and il is up TO the motorists to thor
oughly famliarize themselves with
the Now laws, which have been pub
lishcd in nearly every paper of the
state including The Record.
Practically every driver is familiar
with the changes in the laws as they
effect the rate of speed per hour i'm
the city and i'm the country, but it is
probable that many are not yet ia
miiar with the sections on lighting.
Local officers have been warming mo-
florists for some days past in regard
TO the law which is effective today,
and this with the publication of the
laws 10y the various papers is expected
to be deemed sufficient notice by the

with manner sweetly affable and
courteous.
We were shown through every part
of the magnificent structure and were

-HEN morning dawned last
NA/ Sunday May Goth, little did
wv ! think that the weather-man
would be so kindly disposed
towards Denver as to allow the cele-
bration of the Memorial and Thanks
giving services of the Elks to proceed
without disturbance from the copious
showers that We're booked for our city
from the evening before, and which
showed every sign of fulfillment as
o'erhanging clouds bent low and the
day broke forth with our usual sunlit
rays hidden from view. But the noble
Elk, true TO the purpose of his indO-
mitable pluck. pursuing his way un-
daunted and undiscouraged by mere
appearance of difficulties or almost in
surmountable barriers, determined
upon overcoming all distractions until
reaching his desired destination, he
stretches out in his "Elks Nest" and
there lays himself down to rest.
Such was the case with the members
of Mountain Lodge No. 80 ut their an
departed brothers and the giving of
thanks to Him Who presides over the
destiny of mankind for their preserva-
ton, when in spite of the very threat,
ening inclement weather in the fore
noon, each member was at his post
promptly and ready to brave the ele-
ments should they offer another test
to the members of ElkdOm.
