To Make Cream Whip.

Many housekeepers who like
whipped cream as an accompaniment
for broths, chocolate or desserts think
they must order cream OF special
richness This generally must be
done the day before and always costs
double the price of ordinary cream.
One young woman discovered last
winter a way of easily making her
daily supply of cream whip. She
merely added teaspoonful of granu-
lated sugar to every pint, had it ice
cold and quickly whipped it to thick
froth in the churn.
A special whipped cream churn is,
by the way an investment that pays
for every housekeeper. The old meth
DDS of using a fork aud Swimming off
froth as it comes to the surface is a
waste of time that the modern woman
can not afford

PIONEER AUTOMOBILES ARE
ENTERED IN STREET PARADE

One of the most interesting features in
the parade during the automobile carnival
in New York last week was the complete
from the first automobile which Mr.. Elwood
Haynes built in 1898, and which is the old
est automobile in America. down to the
present years model. which was the only
car to come through the gruelling Thanks
giving day contest of the Chicago Motor
club with a perfect score The ten cars
shown included the 1898 model, which is
still in shape to run, and was operated by
Mr. Haynes himself to the 1908 runabout,
with his fourteen-year old daughter, Ber-
nice at the wheel.
Said Mr.. Haynes, referring to the old
1893 car: "It has always been one of cur
arguments that the art of building q motor
car was something that was acquired from
experience only, and that inasmuch as we
are the oldest manufacturers, that we have
had time to try out many devices which the
newer manufacturers have not had the op-
portunity of doing"
Continuing, Mr.. Haynes saiud: "It may be
of interest to you to know that the first car
we built had the following points; Two
cycle motor three point suspension, double
side chain drive, make and break ignition,
ball bearings, vertical motor, pressure feed
gasoline to small reservoir. three speeds for
ward, three reverse, S6-inch wheels, force
pump for both gas and water, sight feed
for lubricator, pneumatic tires.
''Some of the specifications for this car
we still embody in the car of today, and
others have proven unsatisfactory, and we
have discarded them for more suitable prac-
tice. However, there are a number of
points which we have discarded that manu-
facturers of more recent date have heralded
as being their own design, and have made
quite figure Of it,"

AMERICAS PIONEER MAKER
ARRESTED IN NEW YORK

President Elwood Haynes of the
Haynes Automobile company arrived in
New York last week with the car he
made in 1893. the first regularly con-
structed automobile in America. With
in few hours the pioneer builder was
arrested at Fifty-seventh street and
Broadway by Bicycle officer T. H. Ker-
rigan for running an automobile with
out number.
Mr.. Haynes had run the car all the
morning in testing it out, and had been
over on Fifth avenue to try the hill at
Thirty-fourth street in preparation for
the automobile parade of Tuesday
night, in which the 1908 Haynes ran at
the head of the procession with dec
ade of automobiles following behind,
representing the ten years from 1898 to
the present time. The afternoon trip
was started at 1880, and Mr.. Haynes
proceeded from his local agency at 1715
Broadway to Fifty-seyenth street, and
turning the corner there started for
Seventh avenue. Ofhcer Kerrlgan
caught the veteran builder just as he
turned the corner at an illegal speed.
The old car, the only one of its year,
or subsequent years, that is running
today, was going pretty fast, with
Frank Mutt, the oldest employe of the
Haynes company, aiding Mr.. Haynes
in running.
officer Kerrigan ordered the veteran
builder to proceed to the Forty-seventh
street station, where the judge asked
him number of questions and allowed
him to go, taking the word of Mr..
Haynes for everything. Mr.. Haynes
said that this arrest was the second in
the history of his life spent in automo-
billing.
This old car is the identical one which
has reposed in the rooms of the Smith
sonian institution at Washington for
many years.

MAY INSTITUTE ANNUAL
RACE FOR STOCK CARS
LINES SIMILAR TO VANDERBILT
CUP CONTEST
Trophy Will Be Offered and Events
VIII Be Held Each Year
on Well Known
Course

A competition for stock cars, con-
Quoted along lines similar to those
governing the Vanderbilt cup race, and,
like that event, under the control of
the American Automobile association,
Is likely to be instituted in the near
future. The plan was outlined at a
meeting held Tuesday morning at the
office of the A. A. A, at which repre-
sentatives of that body and of the Ma
tional Association of Automobile Man.
ufacturers and the American Motor
Car Manufacturers association were
present.
1t is proposed that Chairman J. d.
Thompson of the A. A. A. racing
board shall follow the example of w.
K. Vanderbilt Jr. and donate a trophy,
to bear his name and to be contested
for annually by stock cars. Mr.. Thomp-
son intimated his willingness to do this,
and 1t Is proposed to make the event
the sole stock car race of the year.
The stock car contest matter was
brought up by Chairman Thompson,
who said that, in view of the racing
season being about to open, he would
the miscellaneous races on circular
tracks and also in connection with the
Vanderbilt cup race. He announced
that the cup race would certainly be
held, and that negotiations for a
course in the states of Missouri, Geor-
gia and Connecticut were already we'll
under way.
He then called attention to the sue
cess of the recent Savannah stock tour
ing car races. The representatives of
the manufacturers present suggested
that there should be but one contest of
the latter kind each year, and that it
should be international in it's character.
This view met with the approval of all
of the representatives present, where
upon Chairman Thompson announced
that if the manufacturers would sup
port such an international contest, he
would be pleased to give to the Ameri-
can Automobile association, as the ma
tional governing body, a cup valued at
$4,000, to be known as the Jefferson De-
Mont Thompson cup. similar to the
Glidden and Vanderbilt trophies, which
might be competed for solely by stock
cars in one great annual event. His
offer was approved and the representa-
tives of the manufacturing bodies stat
ed that they would present the matter
to their associations at the first oppor-
tunity.
The proposed convention of the Amer
lean Automobile association to be held
at Buffalo coincident with the begin
ming of the fifth annual tour was also
considered, President Hooper of the
Good Roads board being present, and 1t
was the opinion of the various repre-
sentatives that good roads should be
the keynote of such convention, and
that If possible other organizations in
terested In the subject be asked to CO.
operate.
Numerous applications which are be-
ing made for sanctions for endurance
contests and hill climbs were brought
to the attention of the conference com
mittee. and the representatives of the

MILLIONAIRE MOTORISTS
CARE LITTLE FOR LIFE

Men who drive as professionals care little
for their life as a matter of fact. Men who
are amateurs and the possessors of inde-
pendent fortunes dislike undue chances
when driving cars in racing events. For
that very reason amateurs are finicky and
hesitate at taking chances. Among ANA
teurs are many who are new to the field
and one of those is Louis ]. Bergdoll, the
Philadelphia millionaire, who made en-
viable reputation at Ormond. Mr. Bergdoil
won the 100 and the 150-mile events at Or
mond, both in handsome style, and intended
entering for Savannah. He will make en-
tries for other events this season and will
be an active contender in the field for the
love of the sport Mr.. Bergdoll will enter
for hill climbs for twenty hour track
races and for beach events at Atlantic City
and at Cape May. Mr.. Bergdoll will drive
the car himself owing to his love for the
sport His interest has been aroused by
successes at Ormond that 1t is now his in
tention to order for the Vanderbilt race a
fast racer to represent Germany and also a
car that will do the hundred miles in one
hour at Ormond next year. Both cars he
will drive himself.

NAVY DEPARTMENT BUYS
TWO WHITE AMBULANcEs

The United States navy department
has purchased two automobile ambu-
lances from the White company of
Cleveland. One of these is for use at
the naval hospital at Philadelphia, and
the other at the tuberculosis hospital
at Los Animas, Colo. The new ambu-
lances are similar to those which have
been purchased from time to time by
the war department from the White
company. In fact, the splendid serv-
ice given by the White ambulances in
army work was the determining fac
tor In the award of this new contract
by the navy department. The chassis
of the two new ambulances are iden-
tical with those of the standard thirty
horse power White touring cars, ex-
cept that the frame is heightened out,
increasing the wheel base to 1S2 inches.
The new ambulances have capacity
of ar stretchers, besides acconmoda-
tions for several surgeons and space
for carrying a considerable quantity
of medical supplies.
