Distance Event on the
Local Highways
Motorists Enthusiastic Over the
Success of Olympic Club
Meeting
BY X. x. PHommedieu

The success of the Olympic track
meet Sunday was the principal topic Of
converse ton on automobile row yester-
day Many of the owners of cars who
did not participate, as they considered
track racing dangerous, were enthusi-
astic over the sport and are now trying
to arrange sfor a road race. A move
ment has been started for a road race
to take place next spring over a 800
mile course.
One of the most interesting results of the auto
races at Tanforan Sunday was the showing made
by the Michelin tires The Buick and the Comet
were equipped with this make, and their eondi-
tion after the contest was interesting TO note.
The Comet was using some of the tires that
were on the car in the Santa Rosa races and had
been doing duty ever since, showing both the
durability of the tire and how easy the ear Is
upon them.
motorcar bus service using White steam
touring cars has been installed between San
Juan and Ponce. Porto Rico. A car leaves each
end of the line each morning and makes the trip
in about six hours. The service has attained
popularity. and bookings must be made at least
10 days In advance in order to obtain accommo-
iatons Since the United States took over the
control of the island considerable road improve
ment work has been done, and the highway be-
tween San Juan the north coast and Ponce
the south coast is said 10 be In fair condition.
The new bus service is especially popular with
tourists visiting Porto Rico, as it gives them an
opportunity TO see the interior of the. island,
which is not accessible by railroad.

A Progressive Conversatfonal-For
an informal entertainment. suitable for
large or small companies, and which
requires little effort on the part OF the
hostess. a progressive conversational
may be recommended.
When the guests are assembled they
are furnished with programs upon

and that the changes be made prompt
ly at the tap of the bell. After allow
ing about 10 minutes for filling the
cards, the discussion of the first topic
begins. for which only five minutes
should be allowed. There is instantly
a buzz of words, which ceases when
the bell taps, and the gentlemen are
given two minutes only in which to
find their partners for the next topic.
In this way only seven minutes are
consumed by each subject, so that If
there are eight subjects the converse

hostess need not fear that there will
be any lack of sociability afterward
If the subjects are tactfully chosen.
