INSURANCE Of
DRIVERS UNDER
i16DISC0URACED

The following informative letter
concerning automobile drivers in
surance has been received by Fred
Dunbar of the Dunbar & Dunbar
agency from the United States FL
deity and Guaranty company:
This letter Is written in an effort
to correct a Misunderstanding which
seems to have arisen in reference
to allowing coverage to a person un-
der 16 years OF age. The present form
OF automobile policy prohibits the op-
GRAFTON OF an automobile by any such
person. However, due to the fact
that quite few states have estab-
lished the legal age OF operating be-
tween II and 10 years, II was found
necessary that some provision be
made for such states, and the pro-
visions as stated in our circular let
ter OF May 10th, 1920 we're made.
Some agents have construed this
ruling to mean that coverage can be
extended by the endorsements men,
toned in the above letter In states
where there is no legal age limit or
where the age limit is either below
II or above 10.
Please be advised that the extern
sion Of coverage authorized for per-
sons under 16 years Of age can only
be made in the following states where
the legal age limit Is II or 15 years,
and further that we wish to discour-
age the issuance OF such extension
as much as possible as we do not be-
lieve that persons under 16 years OF
age are likely to be good drivers.
Fifteen (15) years: legal age: IL
linois, Iowa, South Dakota, Wash
ington, Wyoming.
Fourteen GD years: Florida.

SISSON, (Siskiyou co., Jan. g.
A large tractor has been put In use
by the county here to keep the roads
open. Pulling large steel grader
which spread the snow to the sides
Of the road, automobiles have been
able to use the roads during the
heavy snow. An effort was made to
keep the road open to McClod, but
the snow ON the summit was too
deep and this road probably will be
closed for the next two or three
months.

GOOD ROADS ARE A BIG
AID no TRUCK MILEAGE

1t was recently ascertained by a
comprehensive series of tests that
the speed of a heavily loaded two
ton truck running over a concrete
surface was 16 miles an hour, while
on a gravel road the maximum speed
was nine and half miles and on dirt
only four and half miles. This is
Just another reason why every truck
owner should get behind the good
roads movement.

Causes OF the car pulling hard or

is all right are dry or worn clutch

leased or slipping when engaged;
weak clutch spring, which will cause
slipping, or brakes adjusted too
tightly or not entirely released.

Lesson From Robinson cru.o..

Consider the wisdom of Robinson
Crusoe. His biography is good text
book for these times. 1t pictures the
world of industry in Its simplest
terms. One man alone on an island,
with nothing but the raw materials Of
nature about him, clothes himself,
feeds himself, puts a roof over his
head, accumulates property, lives hap
PLY, builds merchant marine out Of
q followed log and finally establishes
communication with the rest Of the
world to its profit and his own.
How did he do itS By hard work:
by foresight; by self-denial. Crusoe
had TO work or starve. He had to
look ahead. else his work would be
labor to no purpose. And he had to
deny himself some enjoyment of the
gains Of the day or he would starve
on the mOrrow.-zThe Worlds Work.
