TRACT0RCASEIS
Law PUZZLE TO.
|. D. c. OFFICIALS.
Court Must Decide Whether or
Not Man Must Have >.
Driver License.

Under a special provision of the
District laws q man can drive q
gasoline tractor through the streets
of Washington without having q
permit or license tags. Does he
violate the law when he bitches a
trailer to his tractor?
That Is the question which is
causing a lot of worry at police
court and which must be decided
one way or the other by Judge
John p. Mcmahon Friday.
Robert Martin. colored, TIC Third
street southwest. was arrested yes
terday by Officer Milton d. Smith.
Of the Third precinct. while driving
q tractor and a trailer. carrying a
6o-foot telegraph pole, through the
city.
Smith lodged charges against Mar
tin Of having no operators per-
NIT and Of having no District
license plates. The case was
brought before Assistant Corpora
ton Counsel Walsh at Police Court
today. preliminary to being taken
into court.
| Frank r. Porter, 1922 street
northwest, local contractor and own
er of the tractor and trailer, claim
ed that the tractor was a traction
engine and that license plates and
an operators permit were not nee.
essary. In order to find out Just
what the law was on the question
court officials continued the case
until Friday.
Capt. Albert Headley, head OF
the District Police Traffic Bureau,
stated that the tractor would be
exempt under the special section
providing that licenses were not
necessary for taking farm ma
chinery through the streets.
This provision was made espe.
cially for the benefit Of the farmer
who bought a tractor in the city
and wished to drive 1t to his farm"
he explained.
But this cannot be construed to
exempt the man who uses a tractor
to carry on a regular trucking bus
mess. As soon as you fasten a
trailer to q tractor II falls beneath
the ban OF the law. You cannot
operate a trailer without having q
license number and an operators
permit. have no doubt that. on
this account, there was a violation
Of the law.
There are about fifteen tractors
being used for work Of this kind
around the city. but this In the
first time that the matter has
been brought up to court.
There is. however. a definite
law to cover the case. You can kill
q pedestrian with a tractor as well
as with an automobile truck. and !
hope. for that reason. that the law
is upheld in this case"

American college man already has
attracted widespread attention and
critics over the country have been
unstinting in their praise of the
work.
But" said Dr. Mckenzie today,
there are many obstacles to max
ing similar work of the American
girl. In the first place it would re-
quire months of valuable time in
making preliminary survey. A
thorough canvass of all the leading
girls colleges would have to be
made and 400 of the best types sell
ected from Bryn Mawr, Vassar,
Mount Holyoke. Wellesley, Goucher,
Smith, Wheaton and other we'll
known institutions. Measurements
Of these 400 picked girls would then
have to be taken and studied care
fully. From these measurements
could be obtained set which would
represent the most perfect type
Then it would be the task Of
sculptors to find a girl in some col
lege that would most nearly fit that
type. Even there would be other dh-
fculties. 1t might prove very hard 10
prevail upon the girl selected to pose
for the statue on account of the pub
licity that such a work is sure to
arouse"

TRAP POISON THE


The first step in producing a pro-
fitable crop of Tobacco is made in
the plant bed. A good bed well pre-
pared and properly seeded with the
best seed does not insure good
plants. Then the safe and sane
thing to do is to Trap Poison the
bed. This is a simple operation and
any one can do it, but remember it
must be done right.
The process is as follows: Arrange
the bed just as you have always
done. When you have finished the
job, instead of using poles or logs
around the bed, use even edge
planks These must be set in the
bed about foot, leaving border
all around the bed. outside about a
foot wide. Put the cloth on the bed
imm ediately and be sure to stop all
cracks around the edges and do not
have any holes in the cloth. Then
just as soon as you see the first
plants coming through spray the
border thoroughly but lightly with
any good poison. This should be
done after every rain and more Of
ten if need be and as the plants grow
it will have TO be done every few
days The grower can very easily tell
about that.
The cloth must extend over. the
poisoned border and may be support
ed by sticks that are allowed to ex-
tend out andfover the border.

President Hilley Speaks in Chapel.
On Tuesday morning Mr.. Hilley
spoke to the students in chapel. He
first told of section in which there
was one main road leading to success
but several roads lead off from it
which kept one from being 100 per
cent efficient. These roads were care
lessness, bad habits, wasting time
and material. The basis of success he
said depended on health, ambition,
and education, honesty, hard work
common sense and religious faith.
You can climb if you will. Every
one can attain something high. "Any
man with push can get there but it
takes character to stick" This he
hoped would lead the students to
work harder and climb the road to
100 per cent efficiency.
