Automobile Club of Utah 10 Planning
Big Banquet for Motorists to Be
Held Early Next Month

Automobile touring in Europe win be
very much facilitated through the ef-
forts Of Thomas w. Wilby and Others
Of the Touring club Of America, who has
Just returned from three months of for
eigu travel.
Many OF those who have made inter.
country trips with autos in the old
world complain that much of the pleas
ure of tho touring was taken away by
the red tape they were forced 10 60
through on the frontier of each coun-
try they visited. The suspicion with
which each country treats the other
makes it exceedingly difficult to go
from ono commonwealth into another,
as the officials arc always on the look
out. and will let no one pass If not
fully convinced that his mission means
no harm to the government.
Tt is the custom in most OF the Euro
pean countries TO examine the driver
of each car before he is allowed to drive
over any of the public highways. He
must thoroughly prove his ability to
handle his machine on the roads, and
must show himself acquainted with the
laws governing them which are pecu.,
liar to tbe country. II he meets all

GOOD ROADS IN
IOWA FOR AUTOS
Middle Western Highways Are
Recommended by Touring
Club Official.

Eastern automobilists who believe that
their section OF the country is the most
popular touring ground might do well to
adopt Horace Greeley's famous advice
about going west and make a trip
through somo OF the states beyond Chi
cago to appreciate the growth OF auto
mobile interest in that section Of tie
country. A. l.. Wcstgard. chairman Of
the committee on tours of the Touring
Club OF America, and who has already
covered about half of his long journey
across the continent in the interests OF
the Touring Club OF America to compile
accurate data and map out a favorable
route from the Atlantic TO the Pacific
coast, has been received by hundreds of
enthusiastic motorists ever since leaving
Chicago several days age.
Mr.. Westgard's tour through the state
OF Iowa formed one OF the most interest
ing portions Of his trip. and the excel
lent roads that he found there should
appeal to eastern motorists to look with
greater favor In the near future upon a
long distance tour through some OF the
most charming sections OF the far west.
The motoriSt in Iowa today will find
friends everywhere he goes. The old time
passed away and the farmers are now
the strongest advocates of the utility and
comfort of the motor vehicle.
Mr. WeStgard in sending TO the Touring
club his impressions of automobiling con-
ditions In Iowa makes tho following in
teresting statements.
Motorists unfamiliar with the stale
would hardly believe that Iowa Is ono of
the lively automobile districts IN the
country. Every farmer and small towns
man have machines, and towns of about
1900 inhabitants have active automobile
clubs. Marenso. Newton and Guthrie
Center. none OF which has population
OF over 1900. have clubs ranging from
fifty to one hundred members drawn from
TO the best automobile interests. Almost
without exception these clubs arc taxi
ing a keen interest III everything relat-
ing TO good roads and have placed hun
dreds OF signs along the popular touring
routes"
Mr.. Westgard and the official Premier
car which he is using OH his trauscon-
tjnental trip crossed Iowa via the river
to river route The state highway OK
tends from Davenport on the Mississippi
river to Council Bluffs and Omaha on
the Missouri. going through the capital
'of the state. Des Mones. An association
of Iowa motorists has been organized to

portion of IL is kept In excellent condi-
tion throughout the season. The road
had never been officially measured until
Mr.. Westsard passed over IL. when. in
accordance with his plan OF obtaining
accurate distances from town To town,
he kept perfect measurements OF this
great Iowa highway and found that It's
length from river 10 river was 255 mileB.

One feature Of the Motordronne pro
gramme that will please the owners is
that there will be events for all classes
of cars based on piston displacement.
One good thing Is TO be a two hour race
for q money prize OF $3.50, and In addition
there will he a trophy and prizes 20 the
cars scoring the greatest mileage in the
various piston displacement divisions.
This will give the small car chance
TO win Some money, no matter how il

the event will be a popular one with tho

THE FUEGlANS.
They Are Stunted and Misshapen az

They Are Stunted and Misshapen az
Well ms Hideously Ugly.
At the two extremes of the Amer
lean continent dwell the most wretch
ed races of beings-the Eskimos at the
north and the Fuegians at the south
OF the two the Fuegians appear to be
the lowest In the civilized scale, their
general aspect being wretched and de-
graded.
Their hideously ugly faces express
the grossest stupidity, and their per-
sons are both stunted and misshapen.
The average height of the men does
not exceed five feet two inches, that
Of the women four feet eight inches,
and owing to their habit of standing
In STOPPING attitude they look even
less than their actual height.
But, although they are veritable pyg-
mics in stature, yet their bodies are
exceedingly large, and their general
appearance is such as might result from
lacking on to the trunk of giant the
arms and legs of child.
Their color appears to be a copper
bronze. but as nearly all are begrimed
with smoke 1t is difficult to specify
children are light brown in color with
the exception of the palms of the
hands and the soles of the feet. which
are of a dirty yellow
The heads Of the adults are covered
with coarse black hair which falls in
lank masses to the neck behind and
on each side of the face, but is cut
away from before the eyes.
The forehead is low and retreating,
the nose broad, fat and furnished with
immense nostrils, and the mouth is
very wide, with thick, protruding lips,
the upper one being very much elon-
gated.
The eyes are small and placed some
what obliquely, the iris is invariably
black In color, and the white Of the
eye has distinctly yellowish tinge.
Moreover. owing apparently to the irri-
tation produced by the smoke of the
fires over which they are so constant
ly crouching, they are very generally
blear eyed.
The teeth, although very much dis
colored, are, as a rule. regular and
sound. The men have naturally only
a few black bristles scattered over the
upper lip and chin. These. however.
are carefully extracted from time to
time by means of two mussel shells,
and very frequently the hair Of the
eyebrows Is removed by a similar
process. The males appear to pay no
attention whatever TO the dressing OF
