Yosemite Easter
Opening Put Off
Due. to Weather

LOS ANGELES, April 1O.-That
tourist travel into the Yosemite
this year will be the largest ever
known, even exceeding last year s
remarkable record, is the confident
prediction of Mrs. d. A. Curry, pres
dent, and Robert T. Williams, man
ager of Camp Curry, popular re-
,rt in the Yosemite Valley.
Through j. A. c.. Waters, South
ern California representative for
lamp Curry, they announce that the
famous resort is not to have the
Easter opening originally planned
for this year. Plans for an early
opening have had to be changed on
account of recent heavy SHOWS
there. April 26 is the date now set
for welcoming early vacationists in
to the valley.
Although the snow, which it is re
ported fell generally over the whole
Yosemite region, has blocked many
~ the roads leading out of the
valley and delayed automobile travel
even from the north, it is regarded
as potential boon to
late season vacationing.

New Stop Light
Boasts Splendid
3-FOld Features

Most of us at some time Or other
become conscious of the fact that
we sec no shortcomings in the
things we have until somebody
comes along with an improvement
and then we wonder how we ever
got along without the new article.
Take the stop signal as an ex-
simple. The first stop lights that
came out q few years ago were
usually big affairs and their action
could not always be depended up
on. Gradually they reduced in size
and many motorists equipped their
cars with the smaller models. Later
there appeared :. light called the
"Slow Stop" signal. This signal.
with slight pressure of the foot
on the brake pedal would register
slow and with full application of
the foot would signal stop More
signals went into the discard in
favor of this new signal.
Things were going splendidly un-
til the Western Auto Supply Com
pany introduced signal that threat
ems to revolutionize the stop signal
business. This new light serves n
three-fold purpose. 1t acts as a
combined traffic signal, parking
light, and stop light. In addition
to these laudable features, it also
shows the hand signals of the driv,
er.
Although this new light is no
bigger than the average small stop
signal it throws enough light to
illuminate tthe drivers hand at
night when he wishes to give 81
turn signal. When the brake is ap-
piled the light flashes, the warn
ing "Stop" to the rear, and at
the same time it throws a beam
Of Tight onto the driver s hand
that clearly shows his hand in the
darkness. s,.
In addition to these features, the
light is equipped with parking
lght that is wired in such 4 man
ler that it requires fwothirds less
current than ordinary systems.
