AUTO NEWS AND NOTES.

There is strong impression in the minds of
many that to own automobile means a constant
outlay Oh large sums for operation. They would
buy machine and enjoy the great pleasure de-
rived therefrom were it not for this fact An ex
perience from carefully kept record proves other
wise.
John A. Seaverns. OF Boston, is one Of those
mathematical drivers who believes IN keeping a
record of what things cost. He recently made a
run IN his Aerocar from Marblehead to BROOKLYN
ana return-wth side trips-a distance Of $50 miles.
IAere were -FOUR passengers, luggage and a full
pounds. '
the gasolene consumption averaged twenty-rine
and one-quarter ton miles per gallon while the total
amount of oil used was seven quarts, He goes
furtner and shows that the total cost was only
gage.

ute or two after Miss Mary A Wa

married Tuesday, and just as they
stepped out of the Church of St.
Thomas Aquinas, Eighteenth and Nor
ris streets, a white dove flew down
from the belfry and aIghted on the
brides shoulder.
1t was such a momentously favor
able omen-nOt a bride out of 10000
dares hope to be so lucky-that the
ftce-throW1ng tnrong was stricken into
an awed silence. The dove picked
away at the rice on the brides hat for
a few minutes, and then flew back to
the belfry again Doubtless 1t was
thinking of nothing more poetic than
getting a square meal. but many a
bride would pay $1,000 in gold for
such a good luck sign at the church
door.

This combination. Of a star heavy
weight bout and one in which Grant

netting all comers in a tour of North
Carolina, while Link is in Asheville,

heavyweight who has been turning
over some of the best men in the
country.

German is even larger. He is certain
