Maximum Of Three
each family can have one for
every two members of the fami-
ly not to exceed three mattresses
to a family. The process in max
ing them is very simple: five lay
ers or more cotton are put in each
tick, beaten down and then
sewed up. Next, the edges are
rolled and the mattress is tufted,
giving the appearance of a new,
expensive r~ottress. The NYA

Inspection of Motor
Vehicles To Be Held
In Safety Campaign

Maryland's annual motor vehicle in
spection-aimed particularly this year
at eliminating accidents caused by
faulty mechanism"-will be held
from October l to November Is.
There will be positively no extern
sion of time" for inspections, Motor
Vehicle Commissioner w. Lee Elgin
added.
"The rise in accidents along Mary
land highways in some respects is at
tributed to faulty mechanism, and this
contributing factor will be greatly
eliminated by rigid inspections and the
removal of unsafe vehicles from the
highways" he said.
due to the number of accidents
which have been caused by broken or
worn king bolts, this item will be adj
ded to the list of mechanical parts to
be checked"
About 1900 garages and service
stations will be available to make in
spections, he continued, and "a COM
plete check of each applicant for an
inspection station will be made to de
termine qualifications and equipment.
Elgin said he had asked Governor
O'Conor for cooperation Of the Mary
land Traffic Safety Committee "in
making this campaign a success"

Issuance Of Marriage Permits
Still On The Increase

Applications for and issuance of
marriage licenses continue to increase
at the office of the clerk of the Cir
cult Court. During August 245 licen-
ses were issued and 257 applications
were granted, bringing in an income
of $74700 for that month
Issuance of licenses has been on the
increase ever since some regulatory
laws went into effect in neighboring
states, This puts Oakland back into
the "Gretna Green" column, compar-
ing favorably with business as it was
prior to December, 1888.
The pre-Labor Day rush was not
as extensive as expected, however.
Sixteen applications were made and
IA licenses granted. On Tuesday of
this week 16 applications were made
and Is licenses were granted. The
law requires a waiting period of 48
hours between time of application and
granting of license.
