our force is limited; therefore,

13. What does a driver’s license
cost?
Ans. The larger class, which we i
call the operator’s class, costs $1.00 I

A public chauffeur’s class license
costs $2.00 and is good until June
30, 1939. A learner’s class costs
50 cents. (Any one sixteen years |
of age and learning to drive a car |
may secure a learner’s permit at i
a cost of 50 cents, but must be i
accompanied in the car by one;
holding an operator’s license, and |
this is only on the highway and j
not within an incorporated town j
or city. This application blank j
must be accompanied by an affi
davit of the parent or guardian, i
showing the age of such person j
an d granting the consent for an
issuance of a learner’s permit).

16. Why do I have to send I
money order or cashier’s check for j j
application? j
Ans. Because of the danger of
loose, money not reaching the de

responsible.
17. If a license is lost, how may j
i I obtain a duplicate? 1
Ans. You may obtain a dupli
cate license by filling out another
application blank and including
fifty cents for the expense of mak
ing a new license. (Each license, j
whether it be original or duplicate, 1
has to go through a regular routine I
of being photographed and a copy !
pent to the individual; therefore, it
is expensive to this department.!
You can see why we are compelled i
to charge an additional 50 cents.)

The cause is that many compa

other things make the future un
