Vehicles Still Running About The act which requires all vehicles using the highways to be propesiy “nu at night has been in effect in is state just two weeks and, So far as known is not being enforced any- 'h!l‘. It is certain no notice hus 8001\ taken of the law in Westerly. 'hief Brown says there ,will be en- forcement of the law here, but he is unfavorable to hasty action. He be- lfeves it well to give vehicle owners opportunity to comply with the law. which s now in its infancy, and ados that in due time he will do his full - duty, Chief Brown believes a reasonable warning should be given persons who fail to respect the new law, as many have their first intimation of the law through police warning. This was the method adopted when the traffic ordinance became effective and with satisfying success, and it is believed that the vehicle light law can be han- dled in like manner. The members of the state board of public roads were in session in the council chamber of the Westerly town hall, Tuesday, for the purpose of granting Rhode Island registration for cars from other states whose owners are spending the summer at Watch Hill and other nearby summer resorts and also for making written examina-, tions of applicants for drivers’ licenses, The board was kept busy all through the session and will meet again today to_complete their work here. There were many automobiles lined up in front of the town ball and vi- cinity and a varied assortment of reg- istration signs attached thereto. There were cars registered in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, Massachusetts. California, Indiana, Connecticut, Florida, Louisiana and Rhode Island. The car bearing the registration P. of J—9, caused much speculation as to its significance and, in the many guesses made none was correct. The problem was solved when the chauffeur explained that P, of J. signifieq Parish of Jefferson, in Louis- iana. Another automobile that has for the past eight years been the cause of comment, by reason of the California registry plate, is that owned by Wil- llam H. Sawyer, a_ cottage owner at Weekapaug. Mr. Sawyer is a resi- dent of Pasadena, but spends three months at Weekapaug, three months in Providence and the balance of the year at his California home. This jdentical car has crossed the continent twelve times, but for the past two years has been in winter storage in Westerly, as Mr. Sawyer has a later model in Pasadena. The car of 1906 vintage has never been repainted, still is in good pre- sengable appearance, in marked con- trast to the cars of more recent con- struction where annual repainting is almost a necessity. This car was reg- istered in California eight years ago as No, 8633. Up to a recent date the actual number of cars registered in that state was over 126,000, or within a few thousand of the larger and more populous stite of New York. Mr. Sawyer says this is perhaps due to the excellent roads in California. He says he can start from his home and travel over 150 miles of the best road that it is possible to build and that he knows of no road in this section, not even a small patch, that can be compared to it. Attornsy Benamin H. Mystic was on the verge of being ar- rested Tuesday morning in Westerly for recklessly driving his automobile. He was- driving up High street and as he neared the residence of Charles W. Willard there was a heavy wagon loaded with grain just ahead ana go- ing in the same direction. Mr. Hewitt tooted his horn and the driver of the grain team reined his horses to the right. Before the team was well to the right Mr, Hewitt took a chance to pass and without looking ahead be- fore making the attempt to see if “the coast was clear. The usual mishap resulted, Harry Williams, driving the delivery truck of the Hazwell company, was coming down High street and close to the curbing on his right, when the truck was struck by the Hewitt ma- chine. The left mud-guard, the left forward spring and axle were bent and the radiator smashed, all indicating that the fault of the mishap was en- tirely with Hewitt, and the attorney frankly acknowledged he was at fault. The front axle of the Hewitt car was bent and other slight damages result- ed. Chief of Police Brown soon ap- peared and made note of the facts in the case, but made no arrest.

By un- written rules of the road, due caution should- be exercised by all drivers, but the driver when on the main thor- opghfare has the right of way over the fellow coming from the side street. i Dr. Malcolm Gunn, of Quonotontaug and Philadelphia, was injured while | ariving in his automobile from Wes- terly to his shore home, when on the Post road. The automobile struck & soft spot in the road, suddenly swerved and upset. The doctor and man who was with him were pinned under the car.

The doctor sus- talned a severe strain of the left knee | and was considerably cut and bruised. He was brought to Westerly and at- tended by Dr, J. DeVere Barber. His Hewitt of | man escaped with slight bruises.
