CERTIFICATE OF TITLE MOTOR
LAW EFFECTIVE JAN. 1

On and after Jan. 1, 1888, the
clerk OF courts will have sole au-
thority in preparing and issuing cer-
tificates of title on all motor ve-
hicles, and also becomes the record
er of all cars, which work has been
handled in the past through the
recorders office With the incep-
tion of the new certificate of title
law, the costs connected with the
sale of automobiles will be increas.
ed considerably. AS the law now
stands the dealer is to absorb the
costs of obtaining new car title
for the purchaser, but law is pend
ing, which If passed, would change
1t to the car buyer
After Jan. /, it is stated, old bills
of sale will be good only to secure
license for the car at the beginning
of the new license year. Should the
car owner desire to mortgage the
car he then will have to secure a
certificate of title, the same as he
were to sell it. In a trade in trans
action after Jan. /, the owner will
have to secure certificate of title
and then have it assigned to the
dealer, who in turn will receive it
and obtain title in his name, for
all of which transactions there will
be a charge

MANY BASKETS DISTRIBUTED
FOR CHRISTMAS

Christmas day passed off quietly
here. Practically all business places
were closed. A number of family
gatherings were held, with big din
ners, as special features. The Nc
Connelsville f1remen, the Eagles,
other lodges, and church organizl-
tions had taken particular pains to
see that the needy were supplied
with the necessary good things for
learn, all families were generously
supplied. The Eagles distributed
% baskets of food, much of which
went to families of the twin cities.
This lodge worked in connection
with the firemen, so that the two or
ganizations would not duplicate bas.
kets of provisions for the same fam
lilies. The firemen raised $167.73
in cash. Of this sum $685. was
ness places in the two towns. They
also received $93.16 in cash from
other sources, and the firemen made
cash donation of $121 In all
they distributed 103 baskets The
average cost per basket was $1.61.
The number of baskets distributed
to the various townships follow:
Malta township, 27; Morgan, g;
Manchester, 5; Meigsville, 3; Penn,
o., biooH, o, UHIOH, y, MARION, 5,
Windsor, 20; Deerfield, 2; York,
5; Bristol, 3. The largest cash con-
tribution to the firemens fund was
$25, which came from the Malta
McConnelsville Rotary club.
The firemen are very grateful for
the very low prices different grocers,
the wholesale grocery, and the
Frank Finley packing plant made
them for the supplies that went to
fill the baskets. The Boscul coffee
company gave 4S pounds of coffee
for the baskets.
The fremen, Eagles and other or.
ganizations feel that every basket
distributed was needed These var.
ious organizations are to be con-
graduated for the splendid manner
in which they looked after the dis.
tribution of the baskets, and in so
doing they brought real Christmas
cheer to many families.
