lesson in the art of self government.
The second period Of American occu-
patton has been fruitful of many re-

General Gomez is one of those who

from Spanish rule. He participated in
two revolutions. in the first of which

sport viii still be held if promoters

the public, and should not, even Oc-
casionally, be monopolized for any
sport. Tests of endurance in all the
legal road powers Of an automobile
may be made. Speed competitions
within the limits Of the law should
be as interesting as tests Of ma
chimes and drivers for ell practical

put a premium on speed forbidden
by law. Automobiling for business
