AUTOMOBILE RACING
PHILADELPHIA Public Ledge,

Philadelphia Public Ledger.
These wild flights may recommend
themselves to the adventurous as exciting
sport; it is altogether misleading to repre-
sent them as serving in any way the in
terests of automobiling. The problems
which the friends of auto-locomotion have
to meet do not include the task of per-
suading men that it is speedy. To per-
feet the model, increase the practical
utility and reduce the cost Of the autocar
these may well be the aims Of those who

out that the bell was broken, whereupon

I appreciate the good, helpful things you
