distance by the shortest route is thrty-nine hun

driving practically two hundred miles day. This
mileage is possible in the East where road condi-

CARS REG1sTERI

A well known manufacturer IN speaking Of the
growth Of the industry and the demand for cars
said yesterday:
The carnival had much &c do with reversing the
condition Of the New York trade during the last
half OF 1908 Every automobile dealer who studies
conditions realizes how important factor It was
in bringing about a quick change in the 4stagnant
condition of automobile selling il existed last
spring. Many pages OF interesting news matter
relative to the various features of the carnival
were printed in the Eastern dailes which in itself
created a healthy stimulus. No other line OF COM
mercial effort showed such quick recuperation from
panic conditions
MANY will be marketed this year than
ever before in the history of the industry, our
dealers are a much mora prosperous footing,
and for this reason hearty support will be given,
and the value OF the carnival win be appreciated
as a help the large number of cars which
are now being turned out.
Subscriptions this year should prove double the
amount available for the committees last
spring and with this added amount the carnival
Of 1909 will go down in history the biggest
thing of it's kind held in this country. There
are those who predict that the annual carnival
week will eventually become as important 20 New
York City as the Mardi Gras celebration is to New
Orleans"

to turn the tables upon the champion In the
first set Touchard frequently forced Grant out OF

was rather listless. At "a Touchard tried to

1t has been said that an engine

cause the component parts OF the

This paper is at present editorless.
Mr.. Thomas ]. Ham, who has been
filling that position so ably, has been
enjoying a much needed rest. In
a few days he will be back to his
post with renewed vigor and lots of
excellent ideas, which he will dress
up in his inimitable style for the
edification of our readers. In the
meantime, our General Utility Man"
is in the saddle, and things may go
a little askew. If the Kings Eng
lish is butchered, or High School

know who is to blame. But if any
of our articles seem to have a taint
of vitriol, kindly remember our sane
tum is directly over drug store,
and the acids which escape when
they are compounding their prepar-
ations permeate our office, settle
down upon our literary efforts, and
give them that peculiar shading,
which is a cross between a slap on
