There's "A message for motorists in

the unfortunate details of the fatality
will be found a fact of great impor-

What was the cause of the acci-

the driver have averted the collision?
How could he have prevented the

Don't Buy Blindly

Studebaker is today the leader in the
f1ne-car field.
It has made this concern the largest
builder of quality cars in the world.
You can find nothing in cars at ST. 900 or

Studebaker sales have almost trebled in
the past three years, The growing demand

Make Time at Noon.

Here's an idea to file for reference
when summer touring reaches high
point:
From IL to o'clock highway traffic
decreases, owing to the time -honored
luncheon custom. Motorists halt
along the highway for picnic lunches
or stop off at inns for a bite. Such
stop-overS range from fifteen minutes g
to an hour and half. This means
that the majority of tourists are off
the road for some portion of the noon
two-hour period. Thus, II the motor
ist with an eye to making good time
conveniently is wise enough to eat

a lot of ground while others are
feastiug, and eat later with peace of
mind and reassuring figures on the

SCIENCE CONQUERs FOG.
With Electrified Sand, Changes
Vapor Into Refreshing Rain.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
AS our round the world flyers ap-
proach their own country the au-
thorities are becoming concerned to
find a place where they can most
safely alight. Coming as they will
from the north, the natural landing
place is somewhere on the coast Of
New England, which is alleged to be
normally covered with a fog which
no human eye can penetrate. The
brave flyers must not be allowed to
risk their neckS in landing on their
native soil, and it would be incon-
venient to land on the top of some
body's house. And there is much
concern.
Happily, man is steadily increasing his
control over nature, and it is stated
that by spraying the very densest fog
with electrified sand it can be
changed into a delightful and re-
freshing rain which will make the
homecoming of our wanderers pleas
ant and comfortable.
Experiments have been going on
for a long time and have been so
satisfactory that the first public
demonstration is to be at the home
landing of our flyers. A sand plane
is being made and the sand is being
prepared. There seems to be no
doubt that the fog will be there, and
officials will be waiting with UNI
brellas for the flyers.

To DubIi1, BY u. S.

Appointment of an American
minister to the Irish Free State
following the appointment of an
Irish envoy to Washington Is re-
garded rs unlikely for some time
at least, as in the opinion of both
President Coolidge and State De-
partment officials this step could
not be taken without appropriate
legislation.
1t is pointed out that accrediting
a representative to Dublin would
call for the establishment of a
legation. which could only be done
by congressional action, involving.
as 1t would, an appropriation.
Suggestions, however, have been
made that the difficulty might be
obviated by appointing a repre-
sentative with the rank of minister
to reside in Dublin. but as a
member and under the control of
the American embassy in London.
This plan would not establish a
new mission abroad and would
therefore not require congressional
sanction.
