ANNOUNCEMENTS
OFNtxTY YFAR'SCARS
Death KneII Sounded for "Sea-
son. Idea by Latest
Innovation

With a majority OF the manufae-
turers of the we'll known makes of
cars ready TO announce their next
years models far in advance of the
shows. which were regarded formerly
as the occasion for such announce
ments, it may be predicted that 1910
will go down in the history of the
automobile industry in the United
States as the harbinger of the death
of the season idea, and the attain
ment of Standardization of type. The
significance of this change from the
old methods long in vogue among the
makers will be noticeable in a more
businesslike management in supplying
the present and future demands for
motor cars.
One of the immediate results of this
revolution is plainly discernible in the
general lack of radical changes in the
models of 1910. With few exceptions
these changes are merely in details.
While every previous year had some
characteristic feature of design, such
as the side entrance tonneau body,
the six-cylinder motor, the light car
the magenta. there is no such dis
tinctive mark in the coming years

ening of the wheel base may be con-
strued as the 1910 contribution to the

as he can summon. verbally and physic-

instances the plan might be an excsl-
lent one, though it is pretty good
guessing that it will not be astonish-
ingly ef1icacious as a general rule.
One of automobilings phases is the
gradual loss of the so called speed
fever" by the older drivers, who now
adays seem to drive quite slowly, even
on a good road, instead of extending
their cars to find out exactly what they
are capable Of when utilizing all their
power. There are times when one may
drive fast, and there are times when
one should drive slowly. Discretion in
both cases tells whether one is a good
or a bad driver.

DIRECTING AN ARMY

Recent Maneuvers Saw Fiery
Charger SuppIanted by
Successor

one of the picturesque features OF
army maneuvers bids fair TO soon pass
10 the realms of the forgotten days in
the supplanting of the horse by the
automobile.
In the recent naneuvers held in New
England, at every point where an au-
tomobile could be used the fiery charger
vas replaced by one of the latest crea-
tions Of the automobile factory.
Never before were so many motor
cars in evidence al an event. Time was
when the presence OF a wagon of any
description, save the ambulance. was
the signal for something resembling
a firing squad. but the automobile held
the day. Many of those not connected
with the maneuvers witnessed the spec
tacle from their motor cars, while the
newspaper machines scudded about the
field gathering news al random
All high general officers in both
armies, as well as military observers
aud umpires and foreign military at

The cars in use numbered everything
from the high power touring car to the

and supply trucks.
Though much rough country was COW

positions with greater celebrity than
could have been accomplished by horses.
There appears TO be but one field still
