You're Paying for Motor Car

You may think you don't
want a motor car. But there
isn't any question about your
needing one.
There is a difference between
wanting a thing and needing it.
If you need a car you are pay
ing for it. Paying in the time
you lose that a car would save
you. In the opportunities that
get away. In the fresh air and
recreation a car would give, but
which now you do not get.
Whatever we really need we
pay for, whether we actually
own it or not. You might get
along without an overcoat this
winter, but you would pay for
one just the same. You would
pay with discomfort and colds.
If you use telephones, tele-
graph, wireless, express trains,
electric lights, trolley cars, add
ing machines, dictaphones,
ne papers, typewriters and
labor saving machinery, then
you need an automobile.
For the automobile has been
developed to keep pace with the
age that utilities these other
things-the age of speed-the
age of efficiency. The motor

ries him to the depot swiftly
and surely.
After the days work, he
arrives home again; arrives
with WEAKNESS and worry air
sprayed from his brain; with a
keen appetite and good humor
for dinner.
In the evening he may use
his car for a tufn around the
parks and bouleV ard or a spin
into the country with family
and friends.
The man with q motor car
lives a fuller life than if he didn't
have one. He has more expert
ences-more sensations. He
does more things. He has a
wider circle of interest and in
huence. He lives twice as long
in the same length of time as the
man who hasn't a car. Long
life is not a question of years so
much as it is of experiences and
accomplishments. Yet motor
cars will be factors in increas-,
ing the average span of mans
years because they promote
health through outdoor life.

car didn't create it's demand
after it arrived. The demand
was waiting. 1t had been wait
ing for forty centuries.
The greatest obstacle to prog
ress is distance. Civilization
consists of doing away with the
space that lies between man
and man, city and city, country
and country, between products
of all kinds and the people who
use them.
When the steamship, the
railroad and trolley came to
take care of the problem of
community or public transport
tation, the world took a long
step ahead.
When the automobile came
to take care of the problem of
individual transportation, the
world took another long step
ahead. If you haven't realized
it, then the world has stepped
past you.
The man with a motor gets
down to his business in the
morning quickly, clearly and
with gladness.
He arrives at his Office with
the sparkle of the sunshine and
fresh air in his blood and brain.
He is able to take up his bust
ness problems with clearer
vision and greater energy than
the man who has been worried
and doped by the rush and jam
and the bad air of a crowded
train or street car.
The man in a motor car can
cover so to 100 miles in a day
just on business errands in the
city, keeping appointments that
itwould take many days to make
under the old system.
At noon time he can use his
car to entertain his business
associates with a Ave or ten mile
ride to a pleasant luncheon
place. He can send. it out in
the afternoon to entertain guests

HARVARD HAS STIFF PRACTICE

Cambridge, Sept A.-Harvard wound
up its first week OF practice on Soldiers
Field. with a stiff 45-minute scrimmage
this afternoon in which the two teams Of
the varsity were tried out against the
second. The teams showed a surprisingly
varied attack, mixing up forward passes
with line plunges. end plays. and fake
plays in a most bewildering fashion.
The showing made by team B was to-
day better than that OF the other var
sity eleven. In twenty minutes this team
scored four times against the second

a trunk there containing the body. They
ripped up the floor in the cellar and dug
