One Faithful Man

One faithful man at freedoms gate
May save your city or your state,
One faithful man Of good report
To every foreign camp and court
May save your land from deep disgrace
In many a diplomatic case.
One faithful man in freedoms ways
May set your cities streets ablaze
With fire and patriotic zeal
And frenzy for the public veal,
May make your merchants sell their wares
AS if the buyers held their shares,
Make lawyers heedful of their speech,
Make preachers practice what they preach,
Put courts and iurics in a mood
To do all men an equal good
One faithful man in every pew
May all our fealty renew
And make our zeal for sacred things
Sweet incense TO the King Of Kings.
And such man, wherever born,
Wears all the glorious tints of morn
Within his glowing face, and stands
A poem, in all times and lands,
And to his enemies may say
In truth on each immortal day;
Unto my cabin you may come,
For God is here and hate is dumb"

PRODUCE SURVEY
Eggs in Storage Far in Excess of
Amount in 1921.

Stocks of eggs remaining in stor-

The market on storage eggs is a

ing with lower prices prevailing than
a week ago.
There has been an exceptionally
heavy movement Of live and dressed
poultry for holiday trade and prices
cased off, especially on live poultry
The supply Of dressed turkeys for
holiday trade was generally larger
than expected and good stock is sell
ing anywhere from 3 to 8 cents q
pound lower than for Thanksgiving
trade. This in good many instances
represents considerable loss to the
shipper.
Receipts of cream at creameries
are holding up well, for this season
of the year, and the demand for but
ter about equals the supply although
there was a little accumulation to-
ward the end of the week, when
prices eased off. The market in Chi
cogo was quoted | cent lower on
practically all grades of butter.
A large proportion Of butter is
showing wintry defects indicating
that more frequent deliveries and
greater care and attention in the
handling Of cream are necessary to
produce the best results.

POLICE ROUND UP
HEADLIGHT FlEND
ALL OVER STATE
Campaign Started by Emmerson Gets
Results in Many Com
munities.

Good results have followed the re-
cent efforts of Secretary of State Louis
l.. Emmerson to secure better enforce
ment of the headlight dimming law in
the state, according to reports re-
ceived at his office. Some time ago
he instructed all investigators operat-
ing under his direction to make spe-
cial effort to obtain strict enforcement
of this law, and to urge local authori-
ties to cooperate with them. He also
sent letter to every sheriff and every
chief of police in the state asking him
to see that this law was enforced.
Provision of Law.
The section of the law referring to
the headlight dimming is as follows:
"When upon any public highway in
this state, during the period from one
hour after sunset to sunrise, every mo-
tor bicycle should carry one lighted
lamp and every motor vehicle two
lighted lamps, showing white lights,
or lights of yellow or amber tint,
visible at least two hundred (200)
feet in the direction toward which
each motor bicycle or motor We
hicle is proceeding, and shall also
exhibit at least one lighted lamp
which shall be so situated as to
throw a red light visible in the reverse
direction. The number plate at the
back of the motor vehicle provided
for in section IA shall be firmly at
tached to the vehicle, so that it will
not swing loosely, and shall be so
lighted that the number on said plate
shall be plainly legible and ineligible
at distance of fifty (50) feet. On
approaching another vehicle proceed
ing in an opposite direction, and when
within not less than two hundred and
fifty (250) feet of same, any person
in charge of a motor bicycle or motor
vehicle equipped with electric head
light or, headlights, shall dim or ex-
tingush such headlight or lights. The
provision herein contained in regard
to dlmming or extinguishing of head
lights shall not apply when such head
lights are equipped with an anti-glare
device or lenses which prevent n glar-
ing or dazzling light. During the Pc
Rod from one hour after sunset to SUM-
rise every motor bicycle or motor We
hicle which Is standing on any road,
highway or street shall display light
on the front and at the rear of the
same. However, any city, town or
village may, by ordinance. under rules
and regulations it may prescribe, des-
ignate any, part or parts Of any street,
or other highway therein, as parking
places in which motor bicycles and
motor vehicles may be parked without
having their lamps lighted, as other
wise required by this section. Such
parking place or places shall be
lighted"

past ten years, laws regarding their
operation have kept pace with chang
ing conditions and the safety provi-
sions relative to the operation of mo-
tor vehicles on the public highway
are ample for the protection of the
public. Like every other law, how
ever. unless these regulations are
strictly enforced they fail in their
object.
Would Save Life.
II am firmly convinced that strict
compliance with the laws of che road
would decrease the number of auto
mobile accidents to practically moth
Ing
According to the Division of Vital
Statistics of the Department of Pub
lie Health, there were 734 fatalities In
the state in 1920 due to automobile
accidents. Four hundred and fifty
of these were In Chicago and 284 In
the downstate. Nearly all of these
were caused by the failure of one
or both parties concerned to obey the
rules of the road. Unless these rules
are obeyed the automobile, which in
other respects is one of the greatest
boons of this age, becomes a menace.
1t should be the concern of every good
citizen to report any infraction of the
law" z.

great deal of attention this summer to
enforcement of safety-first laws of
the road. These Investigators were
used the first time last year by the
secretary of state under an act adopted
by the last general assembly. There
Is only limited number of them and
their time this season has been de-
voted so far principally to rounding
up automobile owners who have failed
to secure 1922 licenses. They have
this work well in hand now and dur
ing the remainder of the season will
also pay attention to other automo.
bile laws
They will urge local authorities to
cooperate fully in the enforcement Of
all these laws.
What Law Provides.
Saftey-irst laws of the road In
clude the following:
Regulation regarding the dimming
Of headlights.
Requiring that automobiles be
stopped before going over a grade
crossing where there is stop" sign,
and that at all other crossings slow

by outstretched arm or otherwise.
Prohibiting the driving of an auto
mobile within 10 feet of street car

Inspectors Will Act.
"In the past" Secretary of State
Emmerson says, ''we have urged
strict compliance with all of these
safety-frst laws, and have asked local
authorities to do all in their power to
enforce them. That was all we could
do until the last legislature gave my
office power to appoint inspectors
with authority TO make arrests.
