Seven Headlights In One
Thousand Found Perfect

That nearly all automobile head
lamps need focusing or adjusting is
indicated by records kept by the pro-
prietor of the Speedway garage al
Faribault, which is one of the official
lamp adjusting stations designated by
the Minnesota Highway department
under the state traffic act After four
months experience, in which he tested
nearly a thousand pairs of head
lamps, he wrote to the department
that he had found only seven pairs of
perfect lamps. All the others needed
some attention. In many cases it was
simple focusing, but many others
needed cleaning, rerairing and ad-
justing.
The lamp adjuster at Faribault
says that he has been kept busy day
and night testing lamps. He has ad-
vertised in the local newspapers and
through other agencies, calling atten-
ton to the advantages of properly adj
justed lamps. This advertising not
only brings him business, but the car
owners who get their lamps adjusted
are pleased at the improved illumin-
alton. Incidentally it has given him

Wilkins and
EieLsOn To Be
Fair Guests

Captain George H. wilkins and
Lieutenant Carl B. Eielson, intrelGd
Arctic explorers and aviators, who
startled the world by flying over the
North Pole last April, will be, guests
OF the management of the Minnesota
State Fair and Northwest Livestock
Show. Twin Cities, September 1 to 8.
This announcement was made to-
day when Captain wilkins informed
Fair officials that he and his illus
trious compatriot would be delighted
to visit the worlds greatest State
Fair"
The famous Arctic flyers, who
wrote one of the great chapters of
aerial history when they made their
memorable 2,OOO-mile flight over the
icy wastes of the far north, from
Point Barrow, Alaska, to the tiny is
land of Spitzbergen in their Lockheed
Vega monoplane, will fly their ma
chine direct to the Fair grounds air
port.
Captain wilkins and Lieutenant
Eielson will give daily flights in
their monoplane. Captain wilkins
also will deliver a series of lectures
on his flight over the North Pole, il
Illustrated by motion pictures taken at
Point Barrow before their departure,
in the Aircraft building during the
week. The monoplane will be on ex-
hibit In the Aircraft show at all tim
es excepting when being used by the
noted airmen for flights.
Incidentally, Captain wilkins and
Lieut.. Eielson have completed all ar
rangements for a dash to the South
Pole this winter. They will leave for
the Antarctic in October.
More than dozen different types
of airplanes will be on exhibit in the
gigantic Aircraft Show to be featured
at this years State Fair. Mono
planes, biplanes, hydroplanes, and
aeroautical equipment of all kinds
will be shown.
Another outstanding thriller will
be an automobile driven on the track
by radio control from an airplane.
Miss Muriel Rudell, famed aviatrix,
will be in charge of this demonstra-
ton. BY merely touching buttons on
the cabinet carried in her plane she
will be able to start the car, back it
up, make right or left turns, and
sound the horn.
These are only few of the features
on the "air-minded" program to be
presented by this years State Fair.

Pardaloe Turns Diplomat.
General Roper waited only till he

only that when he came back he
would have q talk with Selwood.
Wentworth himself spent the week

woods resignation az superintendent
Of the freighting line. It required all
Of Wentworth's and Carpy's powers Of
persuasion to induce him to hold on
till an acceptable successor could be
found. Neither Doctor Carpy. despite
his blunt common sense, nor Went
worth, the long-headed master Of from
tier transportation, was capable Of
analyzing the mystery Of the change
that had come over Sslwood. They
wrongly surmissd that his settled
moodiness was due to the fresh out
break Of his grievance against his
grandfather; had they been az close
70 selwood as Bill Pardaloe was, and
as good an observer, they would have
known that less than a hundred
pounds Of Sleepy Cat femininity had
wrecked his good nature, his opti-
mism, and his peace Of mind.
When they saw him finish, with L.
bations Of wine, the recital Of his
family wrongs, they did not realize
that he would likewise have been glad
to drown all recollection Of the last
scene he ever expected to have with
Christie Fyler. Bill Pardaloe, watch
Ing Selwood unobserved, knew better
than to ask questions, but he himself
had soft spot In his heart for
Christie, and though his duties no
longer took him to the store, where
FLYERS business was dwindling, Bill
made 1t a point to drop around at
times and see what he could see and
hear what he could hear.

Specialists inform us that over

This is reason enough for mother

specialist, has a good rule to follow

Tariff Scare Up.
The old time tariff scare has been
raised by senators and representa-
tives. The tariff issue is dragged out
at this time for the sole purpose of
influencing the presidential election.
The leaders of this agitation claim
it will be necessary to have a special
session of congress next spring, as
the time Of the present congress will
be all too short to handle a matter of
such Importance.
The budget bureau finds itself
working at capacity preparing for the
next session which cOnvenss in De-
cember. The federal government is
the largest business in the world, re-
quiring an outlay Of between three
and four billion dollars each year.
The budget bureau is giving close
study to estimates and recommenda-
tions of cabinet officers and independ-
ent governmental chiefs. The bud
get bureau works directly under the
President and will undoubtedly con-
tinue to use the pruning knife on pro-
posed increases in government ex-
penditures.
Vote at Home.
With more than sixty thousand
government employees located in
Washington the vacation season is
more than a routine matter. While
large numbers of federal workers
have established homes here, the ma
jority are temporary residents in that
they endeavor to maintain voting
places at home. An impressive per-
centage of government employees, par
ticularly the girls, came here during
the war emergency. "A surprising
number of these recruits to the gov
eminent service were school teach

than return to a permanent place in
the old home town. The Capital City
exercises a curious fascination to the
extent that better opportunities are
turned down. The government, too,
