tin- toait hou-e.
The agitation over the we of glar
ing headlights by automobile drivers
all over the state, which was quite
extensive the pa-st summer, has found
an echo in the Nebraska statehouse
and Representative George A. Wil
liams of Fillmore county is on hand
with a bill Jo define the legal lens
for lights, provide a penalty for vio
lation of the law and also to prohibit
the bringing of cars into the state
that are not prvoided with the pro
per kind of lights.
The state meeting of the sheriffs
at Lincoln recently discussed the
glaring headlight question and it was
the general expression that a large
percentage of the accidents on the
i highways and the fatalities that oc
'curred in auto wrecks were caused
I by the lack of uniform and safe lens
! ei in the automobile lights. The
'bill that Mr. Williams has introduced
jlias been given endorsement by Geo.
'. E. Johnson, head of the state depart
j merit of public works and under
'whose supervision will come the en
ifcrcement of the act if it is passed:
Lawful lenses are defined in the act
as lenses made from other than clear
jplass, lenses that do not cause a
(blinding glare and which have been
'approved by the secretary of the de
partment of public works. It is de
- dared unlawful to use. sell, offer for
sale, ship or otherwise import into
the state any motor vehicle lens ex
cepi as described. Possession of un
lawful lenses, either in vehicle or in
stock, shall be prima facie evidence
of intent to violate the law.

vhich have been shipped cr other

iidation of this act in jy lie sejzee
nd confiscated.
s;.au ue posieu in conspicuous piace.
The bill declares it unlawful to
drive up the public highways in the
slate of Nebraska, any motor vehicle
not equipped with lawful lenses. Tiu
violator may be fined not less than
$10 nor more than $50 for each of-fen-e.
Any person, firm or corporatior
who .ells or offers for sale within
the state a car not properly equipped
as to lights, shall be fined not lesi
than $100 nor more than $200 and
the motor vehicles which have beeD
shipped or otherwise transported into
the state in violation of the act may
be confiscated.
The last section Is said to strike
at the very heart of the evil. It puts
it up to the manufacturer in Michi
gan, Kokonjo and New York to ac
miair.t himself with the Nebraska
provisions relative to automobile len
ses. It would mean, in some cases at
least, specially equipped ears for this
sfat'.' although It is assumed that the
motor products of some of the factor
ies will he acceptable even under the
proposed act. Since the laws of the
teveral rotates are not uniform on the
subject of lens regulation, it is pre
sumed that more or less confusion
would result.
If the bill becomes a law. its in
fluerKe necessarily will spread beyond
the Ftate boundaries it is said. It
be essential not alone for thj
maker of motor vehicles o bring his-
leu? equipment under the law but
cross-country travelers will find i
necessary to acquaint themselves
withthe Nebraska law or else ar
r;;nse their schedules so as to not in
clude this state. Since every state
and lesser community is said to have
taken up the problem cf the glaring
headlight, it may be argued that the
bill should work little or no hard
ship. This measure is the only one
to have been introduced on this sub
ject. Williams Bill.
Section 1. For the purposes of
this act the words and phrases used
shall )e construed as follows: "Mo
tor vehicles" shall include automo
biles, motorcycles and all vehicles
propelled by any power, other than
mueular power, excepting however,
traction engines, road rollers, and
other vehicles which run oniy on
rails and tracks. "Lawful lenses"
are lenses for use on motor vehicles
that have been submitted to and ap
proved by the secretary of the de
partment of public works.
Sec. 2. Lawful lenses within the
meaning of this act are declared to be
lenses made of other than clear glass,
that do not cause a blinding glare
and that have heon approved by the
secretary ef t he department of pub
lic works. It shall be unlawful K
ii'e. sell or offer for sale, or to ship
or otherwise import into the state
'iiy motor vehicle lenses except as
described above. The possession of
unlawful lenses, either in the motor
vehicle or in stock shall be prima
facie evidence of intent to violate the
law.
Sec :;. No motor vehicle shall be
Hupped or otherwise imported into
the state, and no lenses shall he sold
or kept for sale within the state, ex
cept they have attached, in a form
that cannot be effaced, a trade mark,

Merchants and manufacturers endorse pure-bred cat
tle because they make business better. They buy electric-lighting
plants; farm power; machinery; pianos;
household conveniences power washers, sweepers,,
churns; better buildings; better homes. They buy im
proved roads and more efficient schools.
Farmers raise pure-breds for the same reason.
They like to be prosperous and pure-breds will make
them so. Better cattle widen the margin between the
producing cost and the selling price of beef; they make
their owi market as breeding stock.
Don't let a pure -bred bull go to
waste in this community. Remem
ber that the poorest pure-bred is
better than the best scrub. He
is easier to feed, he makes better
beef, and he will pass his money
bringing qualities on to his get. Only
the pure-bred can make the cattle
industry stable arid certain of steady
return, year after year.

whose cooperation enables us to pre
