TIMES HAVE clIANCIED
Yes, times have changed since the
ea,dy days.
And things are dilermil now;
We IlSod 11) tramp front dawn to dusk
In the trail of rho walking plow;
And 111.1" (MC grain from 11 canvas
sack.
With a barrel -hoop fer a mouth.
And we kind o' felt that Providence.
Controlled the frost and drouth;
And in harvest work we always
neighbor forth and back,
And never thought of threshing till
the grain \MS iu the stack;
Awl hauled our wood in the winter
time,
And talk beside the fire, and felt that
every thing was fine,
True, Ave had little money; our homes
were plain and bare;
Maybe a box for a table, maybe a
block Tor 01 chair;
Straw to repose our bodies at the end
of the well -worked day.
And the stars saw through the knot
holes in the shingles where
we lay;
Food that was mostly our raising,
coffee from toasted wheat,
Cottonade for our Sunday suits,,,_
moccasins for our feet.
Hard were our frames with labor,
knotted our hands with toil,
And we went to bed at twilight to
save the Drive of oil.
Hardship. perhaps-. but old-timers look
back to early daY,.

Back at the old sod stables and the
cattle in 11 row;
Back at the distances still unmapped,
at the trails that were still
mitred,
'When round about were the wastes of
earth, and overhead was God.
We think of the. old-time comradeship
and sigh far the early days.

Your 1944 motor vehicle permit is now ready. Good
citizenship and good sense tell you to get it now.
Take good care of your 1943 plate. Wartime re-
strictions require that you use it for another year.
Your motor vehicle permit fee remains the same.
With your 1944 motor vehicle permit there will be
issued a windshield stamp such as that illustrated.
The display of this stamp will validate the use of
your 1943 plate.
1944 drivers' licenses are now available and should
be secured at once.
FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
O
Do you know that both your motor vehicle
permit and driver's license will be automati-
cally suspended until you file proof of fina;wial
responsibility if you are convicted of a violation
of the law following an accident? You may
find an insurance policy difficult to secure then.
It is better to drive safely and avoid accidents
than to find yourself unable to drive at all.
