The plates will be the same size as the 1924 licenses with figures the same size and letters in the same position-numbers three inches high with 'ILL." in the upper right hand comer and '25" in the lower right hand corner. The neY' plat!s ~ndoubt~dly will find fa.vor wtth Ilhnots autoasts as they will add tone to any car. lS In ordermg tickets a self-addressed stamped envelope for each game for which tickets are ordered should be enclosed with the order. By attaching a 10 cent stamp to the envelope the ticket may be registered. Chicago footban tickets will not be mailed until November 3 because of University of Chicago football ticket restrictions. Before the stadium was built there was always a mad scramble for tickets but now with the stadium nearing completion and with a capacity of more than 63,000, it looks as though there would be tickets even to the last day. But you can never tell-the early birds wi11 be sure of seats, though. The first batch of the 150,000 football tickets whieh will be used this fall have just come off the press .

That's the color scheme for the Illinois 1925 automobile license plates for which Secretary of State Louis L. Emmerson has just let the contract at a figure he believes is the lowest in the entire United States. The contract was let to the C. H. Hanson company of Chicago, one of the largest manufacturers of this type of article in the United States. The contract price is 13~ cents per pair oi plates required on every motor vehicle in 111inois. In addition to making the plates the manufacturer buys and prints patented envelopes; encloses the plates, together with a 16-page printed synopsis of the Illinois motor vehicle law, in the envelopes ; pays the freight on the plates to Springfield; pays the storage until the plates are needed by the automobile department of the secretary's office; and pays the drayage on the plates from the warehouse to the door of the state house when the automobile department calls for another supply. The plates, enclosed in the patented are laid down at the state for 13~ cents per package. As applications come in all the automobile department has to do is insert in the patented holder a card bearing the information contained in the application for license and deliver the plates to the postoffice. The card serves as the applicant's certificate of registration. The working out of this system by Secretary of State Emmerson saves thousands of dollars of state money. Twenty thousand dollars in postage is saved annually by enclosing the certificate in the patented envelopes with the plates instead of sending it separate. In addition to the automobile license plate contract, Secretary Emmerson also has signed a contract with Brady and company of Peoria for chauffeur badges. This contract is at the rate of 7.8 cents each. The contracts call for manufacture of 1,165,000 plates for pleasure cars, trueks, dealers and motorcycles and 100,000 chauffeur badges. Secretary :Emmerson estimates this number will be sufficient to care for the state's 'lleed in 1925 but the contracts specify at if more are needed the manufacturers must furnish the additional plates and badges at the figure named JD. the oricinal order. .lluto11Jqtic THEAT degree of heat every hour of the day~ Then there is the satisfaction of knowing that the Hart Oil Burner keeps the home clean-always fresh and wholesome. disagreeable task of ordinary heating.
