concerned. than might have been ex-

The situation, however, has checked
buying and has stopped all new cor

others. Among the active issues Inter-

with Saturdays closing of 174. Amer
lean Telephone 4ias had an early ad-
vance Of 2 points and then lost 81

IL RULES OF SAFETY
FOR AUTO DRIVERS

AS a contribution towards greater
safety and more pleasant driving con-
ditions on the highways of the country
this summer, the Ford Motor company
has listed II rules as suggestions to
motorists and has distributed them to
dealers over the country.
Announcement of the suggestions
was made today by E. o. Haglund, of
the Fergus Motor company, Ford
dealer in Lewistown, who will display
the list prominently in his place of
business.
"These rules" said Mr.. Haglund,
"are merely common sense as applied
to automobile driving. Every ex-
perienced motorist knows all of them.
1t is our hope, however, that by
stating them concisely and posting
them where they will come to the
attention of great many motorists,
we can SO emphasize them as to make
real contribution towards greater
highway safety.
The twelve rules are:
1.-Courtesy comes first. Consider
the rights and privileges of others.
keep your mind on your driving
and anticipate sudden emergencies.
3.-Learn the "feel" of having your
car under control.
4.-Obey all traffic and parking
regulations.
5.-Keep to the right, and comply
with road markings and signs.
6.-Signal for stops and turns
watch the car ahead.
. 7.-SlowIdown at crossings, schools,
dangerous places.
8.-Never pass cars on hills,
curves, crossings.
adapt your driving to road con-
ditions-rain, ice, soft spots and ruts
lot doesn't pay to take the
"right-of-way" too seriously.
11.-When you drive, remember the
times when you're, a pedestrian.
12.-Know the law 1t was passed
for your protection.
at is estimated that 20,000,000 per-
sons will tour on American highways
this summer Mr.. Haglund continued
Recognition of the rights of others
, will be essential. Many unpleasantries
and accidents will be avoided if motor
lists, at times of close situations, will
recall these rules and act accordingly
They are the recommendation of the
Ford Motor company offered to give
greater peace of mind to those who
travel by automobile"

dance that shall not be licensed.
Hence the answer to this terrifying
problem has been answered in an opin-
ion of the attorney general by Assist
ant i, Y. ketter, handed down at the
request of the state examiner.
Il have had your request for an
opinion as to what constitutes COM
munity dance within the meaning of
chapter 131 of the session laws of
1929.
THE statute does not state what
constitutes a community dance and it
is difficult to give any general defini-
tion that will define such dance
under all circumstances. Generally
speaking | am of the opinion that a
community dance within the meaning
of the statute is one which is given
by the people, or neighborhood as a
community or neighborhood project or
function as distinguished from dance
that is given by an individual, individ-
uals, associations or corporations as
his, their or its enterprise.
Whether any particular dance con-
stitutes community dance would de-
pend upon the facts in each particular
case, but generally speaking, | am of
the opinion that the definition above
stated is a sufficient rule for deter
mining whether any particular dance
is a community dance within the
meaning of the law
