~ tnelr plans came all to
nought. Boys like things on
wheels. That fact is very
evident one, and automobiles
rule the day. Fully half the ex-
periments were in the making of
automobiles" The word
cart was seldom used. Any,
thing that goes without four
footed power is dubbed an "au-
to- whether it goes by the force
OF gravity or the push, push,
push of the riders feet. The
hows, why and wherefores of
these amateur automobiles are
decidedly ingenious, even when
they are laughable-andi it seems
a waste of good material that so
much effort and hard work
should go for nothing but pains
and bruises to a greater or less
degree. The experimenters who
can show practical results are
those who went to work in a
leVelheaded way, knowing the
laws governing the materials
with which they worked and
paying heed to their limitations.
And this whether the experiment
was the concOction of new to-
