Worth While club met at the Donald Pentz home Sunday, a a a Police Of Nation — (Continued from page one) a e .8 on a check of the brakes of all cars that are stopped for any other purpose. The emphasis is being placed upon brakes because they are the greatest safety factoi on any car. A simple check that only takes a few seconds has been devised and, with each check the driver of the car will be given a pamphlet describing the test and explaining other methods of pre serving the usefulness of the car. All Montana peace officers are cooperating in this campaign and the driving public is sincerely urged to lend its cooperation to ward averting the threatened breakdown of our vital motor transportation. To help make cars last longer and to reduce accidents, Wolf Point police will cooperate in the nation-wide brake check program, it was announced today. During a six week period, from April 15 until June 1, the police of the nation will check the brakes of all cars involved in moving traffic violations and in accidents, according to Chief Shamley, He added that cars also would be checked which are operated in a manner indicat ing that the brakes are not safe. “The brake check will be time ly,” he said, “because, usually, ac. cidents increase sharply in the spring. Since cars on the average are twice as old today as before the war they are more likely to suffer breakdowns. The brake check should be an invaluable aid in holding the line against the certain threat,” Chief Shamley said. JUST LOOK IN THE HERALD-NEWS WANT ADS!

The mothers, wives, fathers, and sisters and brothers of the boys that are dead or crip pled can tell of the sacrifices they have made. All we have to do to think of the thousands of boys that are fighting for us who are facing the horrors of war. We have all seen pictures enough of the dead and dying and the hard ships so that we can have at least a faint idea of what they have to go through. There have been 90 congression al medals of honor awarded and of these three have gone to Mon tana 'boys—Capt. Wm. Galt of Great Falls, Pfc. Henry Schauer of- Scobey, Pfc. Leo J. Powers of Alder. Buying bonds is not a sacrifice, it is an investment. They are be ing bought with funds that you have made doing the work you like to do and under favorable condi tions. To buy bonds not only helps to finish this war but to protect your future with the best invest ment that can be made. We will have to hurry to do our part and keep up with the boys who are going forward bringing us each day nearer to victory and that peace we all long for. Let us then reconstruct this grand old American of ours so that we can continue forever to enjoy the lib erties and freedom we cherish. Yours for Victory to the End, Carl Bull County Chairman.
