The circuses are three elaborate
Chalmers Detroit exhibits, "cut out"

show the inner workings of every part
of the car, trophies won in scores or
race meets, new models and all or the
things which go to make motor car
exhibit interesting.
These three displays will visit prac-
tically all of the automobile shows in
the country. That is why there are
three of them. From the time they
take the road they will not return to
the factory until next spring, when
every show is over.

NOTE OF THE AUTO
Fred Swanton of Santa Cruz made
splendid trip Thursday with his top so
horsepower Thomas flyer. going from
Santa Cruz to San Francisco in record
time. Road conditions are good on
the entire trip with the exception of
those near San Mateo.
A horse ordinarily can not travel in
his whole life more than $4,000 miles,
whereas an automobile may do ii In
two years.
1t is estimated that Georgia is com
pleting more, than 10 miles of good
roads a day over $500 convicts are
at work in 100 counties of the 140.
According to one authority. he de-
clares that the motor industry has
now the largest army of employees
anywhere engaged in the manufacture
of a single product--a condition which
has been brought about in single
decade.
