Special stress will he placed on these engine and luanutacturer numbers. It the num¬ bers shown on the application tor certificate of title are ineonsistcut with the year shown on the applica¬ tion—or should the number of any particular part of the motor or ve¬ hicle be listed Instead of the engine or manufacturer number, the applica¬ tion will be returned for correction, I'nder the title law the engine num¬ her file will be the predominating file. The duplications of engine or manu¬ facturer numbers will be ,-arer'ully checked and titles will be cancelled when caredessness is shown in set¬ ting forth these numbers.

CAR JUMPS TRACK ON MAIN STREET
Early on Friday morning the at¬ tention of hundreds of passersby was centered on a Slate Belt Elecric Street Railway Company car, that had left the track on a straight stretch of road bed on North Main street, Nazareth.
The car that caused such au unac¬ customed sight was No. 120. former¬ ly operated ou the Northampton Transit company lines and only lately became a part of the Slate Belt's roll¬ ing stock. On the above occasion it was used'as a mail car and was oper¬ ated by Godshalk and Gumm as tbe crew.
Leaving the Nazareth Postofllce at 5.15 o'clock loaded down with luail matter and travelling up grade until it reached the highest point on the incline it suddenly able manner,  the
rails and shot towards a brick house owned by -he Etschman estate, bowled over an iron tieing post and a tree and scraping the front wall of the building. Very fortunately the crew narrowly escaped injuries and road traffic w,is completely blocked by the mixup for several hours.
The company's crew placed the car back on the track after experienc¬ ing considerable difficulty. The car was damaged to some extent.
The prospects for auother success¬ ful Nazareth Fair are good and un¬ less all indications miscarry we will have a bigger and better fair than ever before.
The management has thus far tak¬ en in consideration the accommoda¬ tion of both exhibitors and visitors and Is planning to have it of the best. It is under consideration of again of¬ fering special prittes for booth dis¬ plays in the main building and If prospective exhibitors desire space it is advisable to engage space at an early date.
The farmers and stockmen throughout the county have for the past few years been improving the standard of their stock and the as¬ sociation desires to still help the cause by giving them special atten¬ tion. This is an excellent idea and they should take advantage   of    the
itjmpany's action by swelling the ex¬ hibition to thrice that of former years.
Very favorable comments are heard in regards to the Grange dis¬ plays at former meets and the writer is positive that the "Granger,* ' will again be on hand with very unique and original attractions, creating great friendly rivalry amongst them¬ selves and an amount of amusement to the visitor.
The automobilist need not stay away from the fair for fear ot cctt finding any parking space a^ tho management has provided ample space for parking.
It Is every members duty ta do his fair share of the work to help and make the fair a success and each and every member should become inter¬ ested by soliciting exhibits and the result will be "the biggest yet."
