No car driver needs to be told how annoying and dangerous It is to be annoyed by the glare of headlights from the other fellow's car — but few drivers know when they are committing the same fault or realize that, in so doing, they are endangering their own safety quite as much as that of their fellow motorist*. Glare is caused by the headlamps not being properly aimed or focused and such lights are dangerous to the car driver because hey do not afford him proper road illumination. With a large percentage of night accidents due to improperly adiusted lights, local motorists should particularly welcome the opportunity to have their lights checked so served. Those present from around Magley were Mr. and Mrs. Milton Scherry and family, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Reppert and family, Robert Tickle, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Fruchte and family, Walter Reppert and son Bobby, Daniel Scherry and daughters Marie and Marcella Mr. and Mrs. Lasier Eckrote, Mrs. Nina Reppert and son Clarence, Mr. and Mrs. Mart Reppert of Preble, Mrs. Susie Reppeit of Decatur and Edward Reppert of Fort Wayne.
