GA! VMatiag Lit b the CSuurse of Secrv- ' : taqr of Stele Kmn««rMMi GmtAge owners in general are ignoring the state law requiring the regi*»v tration of the numbers of automobiles brought into their placcs for storage or repairs, Secretary of State Looljl L. Emmerson declared today. Only a small per cent of the garages in the state are complying with the law, he says, adding that if the law is a good one it could be observed, but if not steps to repeal it should be taken. Secretary Emmerson urges all automobile dealers and garage owners thruout the state to pay more atten tion to the law. In an address before the Chicago Automobile Trade association he laid special emphasis on this point. He said: Of all the automobile laws, the one most generally ignored is that requiring garage owners to keep a register of the numbers of all automobiles brought into the garage. The purpose of this law was to assist in finding stolen automobiles. I am required, under act of the last general assembly to issue a weekly bulletin, giving the numbers of all stolen automobiles which are reported to me by the police officers and sheriffs in various sections of the state. These bulletins are sent to all police officers and sheriffs and if each garage kept a register of cars brought in for repairs or storage, it would greatly aid in finding the missing automobiles. In many instances it^would be a protection to the garage owner. Not long ago a garage owner wrote in and asked to have a special number given to an engine of an automobile which he had in storage in his shop, in order that he might sell the car to pay for storage and repairs. Investigation showed that the car had been brought in, a number of accessories ordered put on it and the owner had never called for it. The engine number had been effaced. Evidently the car had been stolen. We refused to issue the special number because it would be aiding in the disposal of m stolen automobile. " "If the garage owner had obeyed the law and looked for the number when the car was brought in he would have discovered the deception and prevented the running up of a bill for storage and accessories." In connection with they necessity for observing automobile laws* Secretary Emmerson points out that the growth of the number of cars has been so rapid that legislation has with difficulty kept pace with it. Twentyfive years ago there were only four automobiles in the United States and today there are 10,500. The point of saturation is still far off, he believes. "In Illinois," he said, "our hard roads system is predicted upon the expectation of a continued prosperity for the automobile trade. In 1917, when the $60,000,000 bond issue was adopted careful estimates were made of the probable automotive future. It was estimated that the saturation point would be 600,000 cars and that this point would be reached in 1924. We passed this mark .last year and will exceed it by 100,000 this year."

APRIL 7 A 6 Pola Negri ST" IN < Xypsy Blood • <,f AND-- • A CLYDE COOK COMEDY Contracted Far Trip to Alton This Spring While McHenry has been stirred to the depths by an exciting political battle, there has been quietly building at the home of Carlton Prouty in Winnetka a second boat for river exploration. She will be named Water Gypsy II and her builder is Herman C. Affeldt, who put the first Water Gypsy in shape for her famous cruise up the Fox river last June. Gypsy II is a bigger and heavier boat than her predecessor and is not intended to jump dams or navigate shoal water. She is fifteen feet long, with a high bow and plenty of freeboard, and is decked over for four feet at the bow. She carries a light mast and leg-of-mutton sail, which is easily furled and removed, but her main locomotive power will be furnished by a pair of light spoon oars. Water Gypsy II will carry a complete camping equipment of the Prouty variety, devised expressly for trips of this kind. In this bflofc during UMI coming June, Mr. Prouty and his twelve year old son, Richard, will voyage the three hundred and fifty-six miles of water between Winnetka and Alton, Illinois. This will necessitate the use of Lake Michigan from Winnetka to the mouth of the Chicago river, then up this river to Robey street, where the drainage channel begins, and this will be followed to its end at Lockport. Here the Water Gypsy II will enter the mammoth lock and drop forty feet to tifie DesPlaines river. The latter stream will be descended to lock No. 5 of the Illinois and Michigan canal at Joliet and this canal wjll be followed sixty-four miles to its merger with the Illinois river at LaSalle. A long stretch of the latter, two hundred and twenty-three miles in all, will fetch the voyagers to the Mississippi at Grafton and by traversing twenty turbulent miies of the Father of Waters the boat will reach her destination on the levee at Alton. From Alton the Gypsy II will be sent by freight to McHenry and her captain and crew will come home by train. Mr. Prouty has twice before made this trip to Alton and once, with Mr. J. H. Madsen of Winnetka as his partner, the trip was extended to Cairo, Illinois. However, the real pleasure of the trip ends when the Mississippi is reached, as this tream is too big, dirty *nd boisterous for m-: SUNDAY, APRIL 9"ij Shirley Mason INw "Iwr Since Eve" • • -- SUNSHINE COMED* } '• |IATINEE AT 2:3* , lIf"", * -- - .i»ij . tUESDAY, APRIL la v ^GUdys^Waltoif v » --IN-- 11 Tk Wise Kid 1?
