L. N. Reed is still adding i'm

Automobiles seem to be the
great attraction here. Several
of our prominent citizens have
lately become owners of the We
hicle, and seem quite expert in
the use of them. Our vehicle
dealers seem unable to get them
as fast as the demand calls for
them. l suppose the horse We
hicle will, in a few years, be fl
nally relegated to the rear. The
American people are unable to do
things in the ordinary way, in
use with our fathers. Every
thing is hustle now, and the slow
way of getting about must pass
to disuse. The old order of things
do not go with us, we must have
a curriculum by which one man
can now do the work Of ten men
of former days, and do it better.
This is an age of progress. While
contemplating the many uses for
the auto we think it may be well
to add to it's uses, and in plan
ming an additional use, we have
wondered if some one might not
find it profitable to establish
line of autos between Covington
and Greenville. Both these pla-
ces have systems of electric cars
and while they ought to be con-
nected with an electric line they
are not. When such a thing may
be done is no telling. And while
this is not done, the next best
thing would be the auto line in
it's stead, taking in the villages
of Bradford and Gettysburg, and
supplying the people in the vii
lagos and along the line in the
distance between those places
with the facilities for travel
which that railway fails to furn-
ish. Will not some person de-
string a venture of the kind en-
list and make a fortune out of it?l
