instructing the General Investment
Company to go through with an
agreement made some years ago to
pay $12, 900 for a farm located in
Piscataway township Middlesex
county. The agreement was made
between the investment company
and Ella A. Randolph, of Freehold,

on the grounds that the owner could
not give them a clear title and that
there had been a long delay in

OKLAHOMA CITY, OKLA, October

Oklahoma legislature.
With preliminary details virtually
complete the house was ready to be-
gin tomorrow the real work of it's
impeachment program looking to the
trial before the senate Of all elective
state officials who may be found de-

It is expected that all committees
will be named, probably tomorrow, to
investigate the state penitentiary, the
state reformatory and other insti-
tutions. One committee has already
left Oklahoma City to conduct an
inquiry at an unannounced place.
Heads of every bank in the city
have been before this committee. AL
drich Blake and DIR. +. IT. Bynum, de-
posed executive counselor and state
banking commissioner, respectively,
| have also been questioned.
Thus far committee sessions have
| been private. but A movement has ap-
| peared in the house to make all hear

j. c. Walton have challenged this
attempt as coming from his followers,
! who, they say, seek information as to
the investigation of his office ini

Rinebold Co. Will Again Distribute
Tags Free of Cost

The Reinbold Company, which has
been distributing the auto licenses in
Licking county for several years, will
again make the distribution for 1924
at their offices on Locust near Fourth
street. Although a great many of the
registrars over the state are making
a nominal charge to cover the expense
OF issuing tags, The Reinbold Com
pany for this year, at least, will make
the distribution gratuitously for the
benefit of its many dealers through
out the county.
The State Automobile Department
does not allow the county registrars
any compensation whatever to cover
the cost of issuing these tags, and the
officials of The Reinbold Company
should be congratulated on their ac-
comodations to the public in making
these yearly distributions without any
expense whatever to the automobile
owners of the County, other than the
price of the tags. Mr.. Reinbold ad-
vises that his company now operates
exclusively in wholesaling gasoline,
kerosene, motor oils, etc., and while
no direct benefit is received from the
distribution of license tags the prac-
tlce will be continued this year.
You may now secure your 1924 Ii
censes but the new tags cannot be
used until after January 1st, 1924.
Your old 1923 tags must be carried
until the last day.

REACTION TIME HARD
QUESTION FOR OWNER
Driver Should Know Value of His
Personal Equation
Interval Elapsing Between instant
Sign or Signal Is Given and Neces-
sary Action Started is Cause
of Many Accidents.

What is your reaction time or do
you know the value Of your personal
eQuationW
This has been suggested as pos
sible question to be put to applicants
for motor vehicle drivers license, ac-
carding to the bureau of public roads
of the Department of Agriculture. Re
action time is the interval of time
that elapses between the instant
sign or signal is seen and the neces-
sary action started. A driver starts
to pass another vehicle when sudden
~ third vehicle appears which may
block his path. The driver must de-
eide whether to pass the vehicle or
drop back. If his reaction time is
slow he may not realize the danger
until too late to avert an accident.
Every astronomer who observes
wnen star crosses a hair line in his
telescope and presses key so that
the time may be electrically recorded
knows that he does not observe the
fact and press the key at the same
time. A correction has to be made
which has been carefully determined
and is called his personal equation.
1t varies with different people.
Timers of a foot race with split
second watches will frequently get
different results for the time Of the
race.
The reaction time of some people
is very slow and undoubtedly is the
cause of many accidents. Does the
public safety require that such people
be denied drivers licenses? The
Bureau of Public Roads is not yet
ready to advocate such a policy, but
considers that it should be investigated
as a possible safety measure.

CRITICISM MOST NECESSARY
However, Il Should Be Intelligent and
Constructive, Not Destructive
and Detrimental.

Roads are seen the most, used the
most, and needed the most of any
public utility. 1t Is natural that they
should be talked about because they
are continually in evidence. Every
now and then we hear criticism Of
the road building program. Now crit
icism is one of the most necessary
requisites of success providing 1t Is In
telligent and constructive. but criticism
that has no basis in fact is, to say the
least, destructive and detrimental.
While a weIl-aimed shot may bring
down the proper objective, stone
thrown at random will do much dam
ag and no good. If you want your criti-
cism to do good be sure you know the
facts. Think before you speak

Gas for the ForgetfuI Motorist.

Every motorist has had the sad ex-
perience of forgetting to replenish the
gas-tank, and of being marooned-
usually miles from nowhere on
stormy night without any of the
precious go-juice to get home with.
We have one acquaintance who boasts
of his prediction toward this sort of
thing. HIS car carries an auxiliary
two-gallon container, but this is of no
avail After it is filed, the owner
travels until he is halted by mo gas"
then he empties the auxiliary supply
into the main tank, travels to the
nearest gas station, and fills up again.
But he invariably forgets to fill the
auxiliary tank; so every alternate
failure of his car to run without gas
leaves him stranded and an object for
the good Samaritan.-Scientific Ameri-

improves Faulty Engine.

This eGpedient is particularly eff
fective in improving the running OF
a faulty engine at low speed because
the series OF sparks occur when the
engine is operating on practically a
closed throttle
The coll Is mounted so that the bot
tom contact Is grounded on the frame
OF the car or the engine and a wire
is carried from the lower contact to
the top of the distributor. The coil
wire of the circuit breaker connects
with the upper contact. and the other
wiring from circuit breaker to switch
and to battery remains unchanged.
Since a vibrating coil costs little, it
is possible to try out this device with
out much expense. Installations that
have been used have given such salts

STREAM or SPARKS STARTED
Arrangement Is Particularly Effective
In Improving Running of Faulty
Engine at Low Speed-Ex-
pense Is Small.

The addition of a vibrating coil will
sometimes remedy serious difficulties
in an ordinary battery ignition system.
Such a system supplies single spark
and when the ignition, carburization,
cylinders, and valves are in irst-class
condition, that is sufficient. When,
however, the ignition coil breaks down,
the ignition mechanism and the car
buretor become worn or are out of ad-
justment, and the cylinders, valves or
valve stems leak, a succession of sparks
is apt to improve the running to a
marked degree.
Steady Stream of Sparks.
An ordinary vibrating coil is substi-
tuted for the regular coil. Therefore,
when the breaker points close, a
steady stream of sparks passes be-
tween the spark plug points. The
