Found Stories True.
"When I got to Belgium," said
Parker, "I learned that the tales of
atrocities had not been lies or exag
geration. With my own eyes I saw
Belgian girl of 12 about to become
mothers, and the fathers, with no
attempt to conceal the (fact, were the
Uhlan. I saw a grave where father,
mother, brother and sister were
burled. A little way distant was the
grave of a German officer. At the
time of the invasion, thla German
oofflcer saw the girl and quartered
himself In her home. That night the
brother heard bis sister scream. He
rushed into th room. The officer
.had the girl in his embrace. The boy
hot him dead. Th hubbub brought
other soldiers. They killed father,
mother, brother and sister and burled
them in one hole.
"Do you remember the story of the
charge of the London Scots. They did
terrible fighting, like madmen. Their
ferocity so enraged their enemies that
I have seen the bodies hideously muti
lated in unspeakable ways. I saw
where they had taken these same bra. e
soldiers wounded, and crucified them,
driving bayonet through skulls, hands
and feet, and thus fastening them to
the walls of buildings.

"That Other Fellow is a menace to Everyone's Safety"
Nine-tenths of all automobile accidents are caused
by skidding and by foolish dependence on rubber
alone. In these days of crowded streets and con
gested traffic, the motorist who does not take precau
tion to guard against every possibility of disaster is
next to criminal.
"The ever-present danger that Is quite ss much of a
terror to the experienced driver as It ts to the novice
Is skidding. There is nothing that makes a msn loss
his nerve so thoroughly or dread a repetition of the -experience
so keenly as a bad skid that end in a
broken wheel against a curb, or that makes matters
far worse by "sidp swiping"amovingtrolley car. To

"What attitude doe a soldier get to

asked. "I nave seen big hulks of

replied. "They would be drawing

Slipshod Traffic
Traffic policemen, by the hundreds, interviewed in all the
large cities on the coast and throughout the country, express tha
unanimous opinion that their work would be greatly reduced;
that nearly all skidding accidents would b eliminated if motor
ists would take the precaution of always carrying WEED
CHAINS, and putting them on when the roads and pavements
are wet, slippery and uncertain.
Some of these guardian of
public safety go so far as to say
that the time is not far off
when State Legislatures will
make theuseof WEED CHAINS
cMnpuUory, for the protection
of life and property.
Make Safety Yours
Take no chances. Funy equip
your own car with WEED
CHAINS and Insist, for your
protection, that other drivers
do the same.
On the Rear Tire
they afford perfect traction
and adequate brake control
On the Front Tire
they act as ladders to enable
the front wheels to easily climb
oat of mud-rut, car tracks and
all uneven places in psvements
or roads, always insuring abso
