The Gardner agency at 217
State street operated by the Bur-dett-Albee
Motor company decid
ed 4 few weeks ago that fair week
'wfter the harvests were over and
loth:.eIty and country folk have
time: to look around a bit would
be a good time to dispose of their
stock of used cars and they have
been putting forth a burst of ef
fort toward getting all of their
used cars in good shape for a big
clearance ' sale during fair week.
O. II. - Zeller of the local agency
calls attention to the fact that
the used cars stocks in Salem are
at the lowest point they have been
in years and that practically all
reputable dealers have been trad
ing carefully as a result the buyer
Is getting top value for hisr money
In good used" cars. "It is a ques
tion in my" mind, said Zeller yes
terday, "whether there isn't a far
bigger dollars worth of Value to
be obtained In nsed cars at the
present (.time than in new and I
think an Inspection of the cars
we are placing on sale this -week
will bear..o.ut my statement." -

a result our highways, streets and
byways are filled morning, noon
and night with children going to

coming generation of our nation.
It is an obligation upon every mo
torist To exercise the utmost care
and; diligence in driving, to look
out! for these children as they are
on heir way to and from school.
Extreme care should also be exer
cised In' the vicinity of every school
as the children will be playing
near the schools during certain
intervals of the day, as well as
crossing ihe streets in going to and
from the schools. These condl
tions will create . congested con
dition near the schools that makes
it incumbent" upon each motorist
to exertlse the utmost cares and
auigence during the school ses
sion.' Alter a. time, motorists be
come- accustomed to these condi
tions, but after a period of three
months ot vacation,- with the
school yards practically deserted.
It is of importance for the motor
ists to realize fully the re-congested
conditions and to govern them
selves and their operations ac
cordingly. 'VApPflitlng these conditions,
