AMERICAN COUNTESS
JOINS AUTO BRIGADE
Former Miss Howell OF South Caro-
lima Buys Expensive Machine
i'm London


in London.
LONDON, Feb. 1S.-As the London
season approaches fashionable women
are vying with each other as to who
shall have the smartest motor. The
Countess of Egmont, formerly Miss
Howell of South Carolina, and hither-
to by no means prominent in smart
society, has now joined what is COM
monty called the motor brigade. She
has bought a car of a French pattern,
which is said to have cost at least
$4,000. In luxurious fittings it does
not compare with such cars as those
owned by the Duchess of Marlborough
CT the Countess of Craven, but in
mechanism it is guaranteed to possess
all the latest features.
The makers supplied one of their
best engineers to show the Countess
how to handle the car and she has
shown facility in acquiring a knowl-
edge Of the intricacies of its ma
chinery that has astonished her
teacher. She has only been a student
for six weeks and she now handles the
steering gear and the brake as If she
We're veteran driver. She has learned
more In one lesson than any other
woman has done in twelve. y
1t is matter of common talk in the
Automobile Club that American
women show greater boldness in hand
ling motors than their English cousins
and are also much quicker in grasp
ing the details of the mechanism of
their cars. 1t took Queen Alexandra
over two years to acquire sufficient
skill and confidence to handle her ear
and several other English women have
taken from three to four years.

the east they were a sign Of caste and
were buried with the dead. Some an
cient earrings were very elaborate, and
many statues had their ears bored in
readiness for votive offerings of ear
rings. In England the earliest earrings
were very cumbrous and made Of
