Vehicles Taxed Century Ago
Evidently there’s nothing new un-
der the sun! Persons who believe
that taxes on. vehicles originated
after the advent of the automobile
must now consider new evidence
that such levies are much older than
the horseless carriage. According
to the Automobile Club of Southern
California a tax receipt, more than
120 years old, was discovered re-
cently near Birdsboro, Pa., show-
ing that $2 was paid as a year’s
license on a two-wheel carriage.
Caution Urged for Pedestrians
Autoists would fare badly il they
attempted to drive their cars down
public sidewalks, jeopardizing those
walking, yet many pedestrians,
while claiming all sidewalk rights,
assume they are entitled to the
streets as well. “Jaywalking” is
the most common fault of pedestri-
ans, according to the Detroit Auto-
mobile club. Caution when walking
or driving is the surest means of
avoiding accidents.
Methodist Church
What Smoke Means
Color will identify the cause of the
smoke coming from the exhaust of
the car, reports the National Auto-
mobile club. A bluish or gray smoke
is traceable to an excess of oil get-
ting past the piston rings. The
black smoke means there is too
much gasoline in the mixture.
Vegetable Ivory Buttons
Vegetable ivory buttons are made
from tagua (also called corozo) nuts,
which are obtained principally from
Ecuador, Colombia and Panama.
Approximately 40.000,000 pounds of
tagua nuts are imported into the
United States each year and manu-
factured into buttons.

n’t yet attended, bring your Bible

Methodist To Have Conference
Tuesday evening, January 21,
Rev. W. C. House, District Super-
intendent, will hold the first
quarterly Conference of the year
for the local Methodist Church.
Rev. House will preach at 7:15
and the public is invited to the
service Local church officials re-
port prospects of an excellent re-
port of work.
Friends of Mrs. Claude Hen-
derson learned that she was to
undergo a major operation at the
Rogers Hospital in Decatur, Tex-
as, on Wednesday morning. It is
hoped that her condition is favor-
able, since no word has been re-
ceived since the operation. Her
brothers, Ray Brady and Dick
Hughes of Pampa, and Mrs. Den-
nis Barnard of Hereford, were at
her bedside.
