AUTOS MUST Be
REGISTERED
NEW RULING BY SECRETA-
RY OF STATE ISSUED TO
COUNTY ASSESSORS.

state must be registered by Jan
uary l, according to a bulletin
issued last week by F. A. Jeter,
secretary of state and commits
sioner of the department Of law
enforcement. In former years
it has been a custom to set a
dead-hne in February or March
for the licensing of cars. "But"
says Mr.. Jeter's bulletin, II find
nothing in the law to authorize
an extension Of time beyond
January 1st. Section 1901 Of
Idaho Compiled Statutes re-
quires that registration shall be
renewed annually, ito take ef-
feet on the first day of January
of each year."
One of the reasons given out
for a strict observance of the
law is the fact that county asses
sors are required to make an as
sessment as personal property of
all motor vehicles which are not
registered, and the placing of
dead line at January l will give
assessors an opportunity to COM
ply with this provision Of the
law. Mr.. Jeter contends that
"inasmuch as practically all
motor vehicles will be registered
sooner OF later, there is no rea--
son why owners of cars should
not register them early"
The bulletin especially eau
tions assessors to get the factory
and motor numbers from the car
to be licensed and not from form
er applications. In explaining
the harm of taking motor num-
bers from former applications,
Mr.. Jeter's bulletin says: "We
found in this office fourteen
Chevrolet cars which were regis
tered under the same motor
number. Upon inquiry as to the
system Of motor numbers used
by the Chevrolet manufacturers,
/ learned that every one of the
fourteen owners in question had
given the pattern number and
/. not the motor number of his car,
and in some cases these had
been copied from former appli
cations. The motor numbers OF
some makes of cars run in series
and appear thus: K-78962 OF
4-3762. Every owner of a car
therefore, should know where to
find the numbers of his car, and
be directed to see that they are
right before an application is
made for 1924"
The only change in the fee
schedule for automobiles is thai
the fees for cars in the 4,00(
5000 and 5000 pound classes
are raised from $40 to $45, $5s
and $50.
License fees for trucks vary
according to the kind of tir'
with which they are equipped
A higher rate schedule hold
where trucks are equipped will
two or more solid tires than tina
which exists for trucks equipped
with pneumatic tires.
Fees accepted by assessor
from non-residents of their coun
ties are to be sent immediatel.
upon reciept to the assessor o
the county in which the appli
cant resides. The license plate
for 1924 are to have a lemon vel
low background with black let
ters. Automobile plates ar
to be marked "Ida. X-24" an
are to be numbered from 1 t
$4,000. Truck plates are to b
marked "T-24" and are to b
numbered from 10000 to 10000
Trailer plates will be marke
''Tr-24" and will number from
on up.

abouts as it is feared that he may be
suffering from the effects of gassing
from the late war.
Very little is known of the young
mar in this vicinity and the author
tiles have been unable to learn of
any of his relatives. An automobile
left at Breen's garage by him for
minor repairs and adjustments about
the time of his disappearance re-
mains there, which leads the police
to believe that he has possibly met
with an accident or has suffered a
lapse of memory from the overseas
gas attack.
Davis was a clerk in the railroad
employ and is described as being five
feet, eight inches tall. weighing 1O2
pounds, with light hair and a fair
complexion and about twenty-one
years old. The left index finger is
missing and his upper front teeth
are decayed while on the left side
of his abdomen he bears a sea- from
a surgical operation.
When last seen he was dressed In
a blue serge suit and wore a blue
cap, tan shoes, a sheeplined leather
coat and a ring bearing the initials
L. d. Any person seen bearing the
above description is requested to

charge that the trucks were improp-
erly lighted while the truck opera

es were caused by the reckless driv-
ing of the pleasure vehicles.

SEE AMERICA FIRST HIKER'
MADE STOP At JAMESBURG

JAMESBURG, Dec. 27-Chief of
Police FiIlhower had an interesting
guest at police headquarters at the
Christmas holiday in the person OF
Frank Dugan, who claims Bath, Me,
as his home when he happens to be
at that place. He ha deredentials
from the city clerk at his native
town showing that he left home on
December s, and that his intentions
were to travel completely around
the United States in an effort to
'see America first" and without
working. Dugan entertained several
at police headquarters, telling OF ms
travels and was a humorist of no
mean calibre.
The reason that Dugan took up his
pedestrian tour of America was on
the advice of his physician in an
effort to affect a cure for rheuma-
tism that had attacked Mr.. Dugan"
He carried a complete camping out
fit but the pack did not include any
tools for the trade of cabinet maker,
which he claimed as his trade.

Last evening l saw a six-year.old rush down the walk. to throw both arms around his mother, who was re- turning from a shopping trip; his face was aglow. his eyes shining with joy. Then 1 was dismayed 10 hear the mother say pettishly, as she pushed him aside, For goodness sake, leave me alone Cant you see that I'm tired. and have my arms fhn?'
 No, a six-yearold doesn't often notice such things unless his attention is called to them l watched his bright face change, his lips quivering, and his eyes filling with tears. l could scarcely keep from picking him up and comforting him.
 Now, as it happened, a few days before l had watched that same yonng mother romping on the lawn with her boy and girl, and had seen her end the game by gathering them both into her arms with almost passionate affection.
 l know she really loves her ehil- dren, but sine is a blow hot, blow cold" mother. who when tired or nervous, treats her children with what looks 10 an outsider almost like dis like; then perhaps the next day she bestows extravagant caresess upon them.

HOME EDUCATION
Blow Hot, Blow Cold, Moihsrs.
By ETHEL G. PETERSON.

l heard another mother of this same gentral type scolding her little dangh- ter one day unsparingly for what a tear in her glovel ] wondered at her harshness, myself. and was anus ed when the child looked up at her. and asked respectfully, Mama. what would you have to say if l stole something?" wondered too.
 A week later the same child dis obeyed a strict order of her mothers, and came tremblingly to tell me about it. l advised here 10 go to her mother at once. and have it over with. She finally promised to, though she said, ,w'1 know Mama will whip me, for she said she would"
 A few days later l had an oppor- tunity to question her as to the out come. She laughed and said "Oh, Mama was busy sewing, and she just said, Well, you've been very naughty, and I'll certainly punish you if you do it again."
 That is the mother who at one time pounces upon child and punishes her for some mere trifie, and at another time overlooks a much more serious fault for which the child herself expects to be punished.
 Are you "blow hot, blow cold" mother whose children never know what tn pxnect or are you by your own boise, fairness. and self-control cultivating the same desirable quali- ties in them?
