 HOLD WORLD RECORD SMALLEST TOWN DAILY

The Stuart (Fia.) Daily News again comes forward with the claim that it is the Smallest-tOWn daily in these United States. The claim now is based on the devel- opments of the 1880 census, which gives Stuart a population of 2,OO4.
 Several months ago when this paper asked for information on this subject we made an inveSti- gation which showed that several other towns with smaller popula- tionS have dailieS.
 Now the census has taken two or three of these out of the small er-town class because of the large increases population, and the

HEAVY RAIN HAMPERS
SUMATRA HIGHWAYS
bikes Used to Keep Roads Above
Water, Says Recent
Report.

Realization Of the marked BENEFITS
that accrue as q result of good high.
ways has prompted Sumatra, Neither
land East Indies, to extend and i'm.
prove its road system in recent years.
The first public highway on the East
Coast of Sumatra, narrow road for
bullock carts, was constructed about
1890 and connected Medan with Its
seaport, Belawan-Delt-a distance Of
IA miles. Very soon. however, 1t was
learned that many important commodi-
ties could be produced in various other
sections of the island, and then began
movement of expansion north, west
and east of Belawan. Similar move
mentS were begun around Sibolga,
Tapanoeli ION the West COAST and
Koeta- Radja in Atjeh (the extreme
northern end of the islan0.
The technical problems connected
with road building in Sumatra are still
unsolved, says United States Commerce
Reports. Most of the agricultural dis
tricts are in those parts Of the island
where the effects OF tropical rains are
felt the most. These are the districts,
however, in which the roads are most
urgently needed.
Practically all automobile roads in
Sumatra are similar in construction.
In the swampy districts a bed similar
to q dixie Is built for the purpose Of
keeping the roads above water. On
this bed a road usually 1874 feet wide
is constructed, in the center Of which
gravel bed 98 feet wide is laid.
After the gravel is laid the bed Is
rolled by a steam roller and thin
layer of sand is then put on top to
smooth the surface. In a few cases a
small amount of asphalt or other road.
surfacing material is poured over the
gravel. after which a coating Of sand
is added. Few efforts have been made
to construct roads of q permanent
nature

In tourist attractions New York State
compares favorably with any region in
America. Possessing scenic areas OF the

lowing the traveller over every trail, the
Ernuire State has roads, accommooa-

inevitably making it one of the Nation
greatest Fairgrounds. according to the
American Automobile Association.

ously supplied with natural beauties

more regions an endless variety Oh
mountains, lakes, river and ocean shore
provide an inviting panorama to

ranks high among tourist detectives.

The falls may be viewed from num-
Der of vantage points-from the edge OF
the islands above, from steamer or

Watch Your Track

Have you ever followed behind a car
that seemed to be running slightly side
wise? If so, you have observed what is
known as a swayed frame-a condition
usually brought on by cave-in of the
frame following an accident.
Just as you do not tell the driver
ahead what you find unusual about his
car, so the people in your wake are
not likely to advise you if your car
has o sWayed frame or q swung rear
end. That is why it pays to go to
a specialist in alignment now and
again. He can check over your car in
short order with the aid of tracking

Caused by Improper Attention.
With Winter and It's attendant in
clement weather just around the corner,
automobile drivers would do well to look
after their braking equipment, since
an eficient braking system often spells
the difference between safety and acci-
dent. Most drivers have experienced
the uncomfortable feeling of helplessness
at some time or another, when. sudden.
ly applying the foot brake. they find
no response In such cases the driver
faces the danger of personal injury, not
to mention injury to others, as well as
car damage.
This danger Of brake failure comes,
not so frequently from worn brake
lining as from mud, sleet, water and
snow getting into the drums and thus
rendering the brakes ineffective.
