bring the first machine opposite the
entrance to the club quarters.
Club emblems will be distributed not
only to the members but to all motor
lists who may wish to join the club in
the celebration. To avoid accidents
President Owens has requested all driv-
ers TO keep in line and not to try to
pass one another. If a machine be-
comes disabled the driver is requested
to pull TO one side. Autos should not
be run faster than 10 miles per hour
and a distance of 20 feet should be
maintained between the cars.
Owens has also suggested that the
fabrication and carburetors should be
thoroughly examined before the start
so as not to cause an undue amount of
smoke, as the streets will be crowded
with people and their pleasure is to be
considered. Drivers must remember
that before backing they should see
that the road is clear. He also asks
that all do some decorating, for an auto
mobile at night is a somber vehicle.

Ness avenue to Market street, to the
ferry, turning to the left to keep in

President Owens asks all members to
pull together and make this parade

Since the first Continental tire left

factory, tneiSea. Mass, the above
maxim has ruled in the constructions
Of these superior tires. 1t has also
been the aim and practice of this COM

sible, and the quality of its tires the
best for real service that first class
material and expert mechanical skill
could produce. But quality has ever
been considered first.
The enormous business resulting
from the excellence and wonderful
wearing service OF the Continental tires
is recognized in every civilized country.
These tires from start te finish are su-
perintended in their constructions, not
only by first class mechanic, but by
