NO DISCOUNT ON LICENSES FOR
OLD CARS

Automobile owners who are waiting
to license their cars after June 80
when they expect to get discount OF
rs per cent will be disappointed, &C
cording to statement issued by FREQ
r. Zimmerman, Secretary of State
The discount applies to new cars only
and the applicant will be required tc
make an affidavit that the car in ques
ton has not been used this year prior
to July 1. Mr.. Zimmerman also calls
attention to the fact that the provis
ion for discount goes into effect after
June 80 and not on June /. Much con
fusion and delay has been caused
by about this provision. The reverse
side of the application card gives the
correct dates for discount.

FATHER
lEdgar Al Guest.

Edgar A. Guest.)
Used to wonder just why father
Never had much time for play.
Used to wonder why he'd rather
Work every minute of the day.
Used to wonder why he never
Loafed along the road an shirked;
Can't recall a time whenever
Father played while others worked.
Father DIDN'T dress in fashion,
Sort of hated clothing new,
Style with him was not a passion,
He had other things in view.
Boys are blind to much that's going
On about EN- day by day.
And had no way of knowing
What became of fathers pay.
All knew was when | needed
Shoes got em on the spot;
Everything for which | pleaded
Somehow father always got.
Wondered, season after season,
Why he never took rest,
And that | might be the reason
Then l never even guessed.
Saw his cheeks were getting paler,
Didn't understand just why.
Saw his body growing Trailer,
Then at last 1 saw him die.
