Device for DETECTING Glare

An attorney of Sumter, S. c.,
has recently obtained a patent on a
device for automobiles that reflect
car lights over the head of the
driver and at the same time gives
him clear visibility on meeting a
brightly lighted automobile travel
ing in the opposite direction. Har-
mon D. Noise, who lays claim to
this invention, explains the device
as being a thin, transparent device,
attachable to an automobile wind
shell, which is glued to the inside
of the windshield, with the thin
edge downward, DETECTING the light
rays upward over the. drivers
head. The first prisms were made
of glass, but recently he has been
experimenting with plastic sub
stance which is as clear as glass
and less fragile and probably lasts

to be proved, it is certain that the
grouping of such men into separ-
ate units in time of combat would
be desirable. Doctors would know
at once that all wounded men from
a certain unit could be given one
of the various blood types and tank
of blood obtained from donors
would be available at dressing sta

These special groupings are still
in the experimental stages, and it
will be interesting to note the eff

will have on future generations of

PEPPER, the
pepper prowIs

A Master Mechanic is recogniz-
ed as a highly skilled man. One
does not reach this enviable stage
of efficiency without hard work
and effort. And it takes conscien-
tious service to hold such a job
constant work.
That's why we can't understand
how Nh. PEPPER can find time to
engage in the odorous practice of
shopping. He has apparently
mastered the fine art of timing
his men to a second, when they
stop for a moment to give aching
muscles a rest. To his production
crazed mind, human beings are no
different from machines, and
should run on -. and on .
and on. ALI Mr.. PEPPER needs to
increase production 100 percent
is to attach a timeclock to every
mans arm! Such a device would
relieve his foremen of the en-
barrasment of acting as stool
pigeons, and devote their time to
the duties GIN pays them to carry
out.
In this modern day, the pro-
gressive boss is a leader - not a
driver. He assumes the men under
him are of flesh and blood, just
as he is. He knows there is a limit
to human endurance, and he OBJ
tains cooperation by tempering
hard-and-fast rules of efficiency
with common sense. Even the
rankest amateur would not be

doesn't like the Union. Because of
the way he treats his men after

Ask Bro. Weaver (Zeke). Brother

him off, so Weaver filed a request
through the Grievance Procedure.
This made Huff very huffie so

vance charging Huff with dis
