VERDICT AGAINST AUTO
OWNER DECLARED VOID

When the inference arising from the
fact OF ownership of an automobile is
overcome by uncontradicted proof that
the machine was not In the possession
OF the owner or his servant or agent, 1t
Is the duty Of a trial court to direct
verdict for the defendant. and not TO
submit the matter TO jury. Justice
Charles III. Robb so held today In rem
dering the opinion Of the District Court
of Appeals in the case of Lawrence
Curry, who had been assessed $500
damages in favor Of Harrison Steven
son, who was injured May 25, 1924 by
ar automomobile registered in Curry's
name.
Curry, on the witness stand, said the
car was not in his possession on the
night of the accident. as he had turned
1t over to prospective purchaser to
try out The prospective purchaser ad-
mitted the car was in his possession
and denied he had any accident. A
physician, who saw Stevenson knocked
down as he and his wife we're crossing
the roadway at Thirteenth and S streets
took the number Of the car. and the
ownership was traced therefrom.
Justice Robb set aside the Judgment
and ordered a new trial.

look much better in nicely fitted uni
forms than In uniforms all cut precise

usually very fusSy about the fit of their

If the nurses whom you visit give
you no orders leave your card with adj

leave word that you will be glad to at

4 ii whether he or she realizes 1t
or not. With pleasant, agree
able people these working notices are
pleasant and agreeable; with disagree
able, trouble making people these sub
conscious notices are not so pleasant.
Thus you might say that one person
would have without realizing 1t the
motto, Think no evil" while another
might have, Where there's smoke
there's fire" One successful house.
wife might have as motto, "A stitch
in time saves nine," while another
Never do today what you can leave
TIL tomorrow. And another woman
who works her children and servants
to death might have Many hands
make light work--providing they aren't
my hands"
But since there are many more
pleasant people in the world than un-
pleasant ones, so 1t follows that the
majority of these subconscious mot
toes are of the agreeable sort. 1t Is
possible, too, to superimpose pleasant,
helpful motto upon one of less pleas
ant sort. and for this reason we should
welcome the present-day revival OF
written notices more or less proni-
nently displayed.
These notices are no longer naiveiy

The sketches show some of the ways
in which these up-to-date notices
have been employed
An important thing is TO have your
notices sufficiently original to be dill

elsewhere.
If you are thinking of making use
of notices in any of these up-to-date
ways and would like to have help in
finding just the motto you need, please

sually Judged by Character of Her Travelling Outfit
Hats Give
Glimpses of
FOreheads

Most of the new hats may be spoken
of as either down-at-the-back or down.
at-the- side. Very few of them are made
with the down-at-the-front silhouette,
for Paris milliners have finally come TO
the conclusion that at least a bit OF
the feminine forehead may be shown.
Interestingly enough, it was the
American girl who started this revela-
ton of the forehead and last Summer
and the Summer before American girls
in Paris amazed Parisians by wearing
their hats pulled back TO show some
slight expanse OF serene drew.
Then 1t seemed merely b fad-one
of the rather crude ways That Amer
lean girls had of showing their indie
pendence. Still the French n1illiners
were not precisely pleased with the
way 1t was done-go they set to work
to make an off the forehead hat. And
now at any Of the up-to-the- minute
millinery shops you may find them
these new French hats or replicaS Of
them-that permit the forehead to be
seen.
Agnes has originated the so-called
poke bonnet cabriolet, quite long at
the back and at both sides and lift
ing its brirn upward at the front. Re-
boux has a new turban with the sug-
gestion of elephants ears at the sides
and front line rising well off the
forehead at the left side.
Talbot has a new model with the
brim turned back and upward at the
front, giving an expression to the face
that is either very demure-almost ma
donna esque-or one that Is decidedly
sophisticated. It all depends on who
wears the hat From Talbot also comes
new close-fitting hat with large fiat
velvet bow at the back covering the
nape of the neck.
The French millineIs never seem to
weary of the beret type Of hat. And
with the adaptability characteristic of
the French modiSte they have this sea-
son modified the beret to suit the pres
ent demands of fashion.
LIE Monnier's new beret Is made with
a closely fitting felt head band that
| rises somewhat at the front to give
glimpse of forehead above the eye
brows and curves down over the ears
and upper part Of the cheeks and across
| the nape Of the neck, very much like
a bonnet. Above this felt head band
| is the velvet arranged beret fashion
and pulled down somewhat over the
| right side.
Maria and Andree have sponsored
another beret or tam Of somewhat peas
| ant aspect made entirely OF brushed
plush. Here the head band Is straight
and wide, worn drawn down over the
| right eyebrow, with the tam top also
| pulled down at the right, covering the
band entirely at that side.
