GIANT DIRIGIBLE SLIPS
 HOME IN EARLY MORNING
Los Angeles Leaves at 3 a. m. and Is Back at Lakehurst Hangar
 at 8 o'Cloc.

Boston, Aug 6 P(-Slipping away from her nooring mast on the Pa toka, the navy dirigible Los On- geles sailed along the Atlantic coast in the early morning hours and reached her hangar at Lakehurst, N. J., at o'clock, eastern standard time, this morning, it was reported at the Boston navy yard.
 The airship's departure was a complete surprise, both to officers at the navy yard and to residents of Newport, The ship yesterday made a flight over Boston and completed her work of calibrating New Eng land compass stations. She returned to Newport last night and swas moored to the Patoka shortly after midnight. At that time no one would give any intimation as to when she would leave. although II was announced that proposed trip to Bar Harbor, Maine, had been cancelled.
 At Newport it was st.id officers had indicated that the Los Angeles would not leave until later today, and when it was learned from Bos- ton that the ship had departed res. idents there rushed out to see if the ship actually had left. The navy yard report said she left Newport at 3 o'clock this morning.

MORE AUTOS BUT
 FEWER ACCIDENTS
Mass. and New Hampshire Show
 Improvement

Boston, Aug. 6. Rt-Although there has been tremendous in- crease in the number of motor ve- hicles in Massachusetts this year, safety workers predict that there will be fewer automobile fatalities than in 1925. Investigators report ed that while motor fatalities in rural districts had increased, the number of such deaths in thickly populated areas had steadily de- creased during the first half of the present year, due to improved hand ling of traffic in the larger cities.
 New England cities lasted as showing a reduction in fatal motor accidents included Fall River, New Bedford. Gardner, Pittsfield, Con- cord, N. H.; Nashua, N. H.; and Boston had only 40 auto fatalities in the first five months this year as compared to 553 a year ago. The safety workers reported that adult jay walking, children playing in streets, inattention and reckless driving were the principal causes of fatal accidents.
 The increase in motor traffic is revealed by figures from the state registry of motor vehicles, which has issued registrations for more than 6oo,000 passenger cars and over s6,Q00 trucks, the total farsboth classes slightly exceeding 00,00o. The registration fees to date have amounted to almost $d, 100000, an increase of more than 40 per cent over the total for the some period last year.

 The conditions under which we operate our business enables it's to sell good furniture at the lowest pos b e prices EVERY DAY in the year.
 So that instead of having a high level of prices one month and so-called sale prices an- other month Garber Brothers have a low level of prices all the time.
