was a student of Fisk University.
After leaving this school he went to
Beloit, Wis, and graduated later,
taking his last course at Chicago

ton of pastoring the most modernly
equipped institutional church of any
member of the race. Bethel is said
t. have cost one hundred thousand
dollars. Their regular attendance in
the Sunday school is over six hum
dred. DR.. Ford was here en- route
to Chicago. He remained over two
days to take up the matter of get
ting out a book which he is to pub
lish on the Bible. He left Tuesday
evening for Chicago to visit his
mother and to perform the wedding
ceremony of Miss Lula Bell, form
er Sunday-school scholar of his at
Jacksonville, which took place We'd
nesday at noon. Miss Bell was
united to prominent Detroit busi-
ness man. Thursday night DR.. Ford

Denver, where he will spend the en-
tire month of August, returning tC
Jacksonville in time to get his churcl
work in shape to enable him to at

of four miles and a rise of 900 feet
and it gave the truck the finest kind
of an example of plantation condi.
lions. The truck was then loaded
with lumber and driven to the cane
fields on the Wahiawa Ridge with the
same ease and success. Mr.. b. D..
Baldwin, the manager, stated to Mr.
BODICE thai the truck was then haul
ing up the grade the same load which
would require four mule teams to
haul, and was being moved in half
the time which it would have taken
the four mule teams. At that rate,
with five mules to each wagon, four
in number, the truck was performing
in the same space of time the same
work which would require forty mules
to do in the same space of time.
After these demonstration the truck
was Immediately accepted by the Ha-
waiian Sugar Company and put in
operation. This should certainly prove
to plantations the indispensable value
of the Packard truck.
A Packard truck is certainly the
most satisfactory money saver that
a plantation could possibly have. Any
sort of hauling such as fertilizer,
lumber, fiume boxes. supplies, equip
ment and product.
The new 1919 models of the Pope
Hartford cars are causing consider
able stir in Gasoline Row at present.
The first models to arrive are on dis
play in the big show rooms of the
Won Hamm-Young Company and are
being greatly admired by the critical
fort and appearance are the main fea-
| lures this year. The same burst of
speed and power is evident in the
new models as was displayed in the
1911 issue The body springs have
undergone a change in design which
transforms the new cars into a Pull
man-like feeling which Will be much
appreciated by the new owners. One
of the cars, which is a four-passenger,
is finished in a Brewster green body
with black hood, tenders and trim
mings, which makes a stunning APP
pearance. The upholstering and trim
ming is of the highest possible quail
ity and the finish all over is a credit
to the most skillful. The great repu-
tation of the Pope is the fact that they
never wear out, and are solid as the
rock of Gibraltar. Pope owners usu-
ally appreciate this with this one
brand of machine and always seem 20

Letter of Won
Hamm---YOung Company

Christmas week was certainly a
busy one with the Won Hamm-Young
Company delivering and attaching the
many presents which were purchased
for the different machines The great
est activity imaginable was displayed
and everything moved like clockwork
in all of the many different depart
ments One thing which the company
prides itself in is the hustling corps
of workers which it has in every de-
partment The great courtesy and will
ingness Of everyone in displaying and
explaining the different merits and
features of the machines and accessor-
les is a much appreciated fact amongst
the many patrons.
The five machines which arrived for
the Won Hamm-Young Company on
the Sierra have been delivered and are
seen daily on the streets. Eighteen
of the Nineteen-twelve models of the
Cadillacs have already been delivered,
and are doing the hardest kind of SER
vice at present with the most remark
able satisfaction and ease imaginable.
The electric lights and starters have
proven themselves to be the most re-
liable attachments applied to any auto
mobile. The extreme reliability of the
electric starter has convinced the most
skeptical-minded critics, and 1t is now
an established fact that It is the most
practicable of all starters which have
yet been invented. 1t never fails and
never requires adjustment.
The next feature most appreciated
by the owners is the extreme ease Of
riding of the new cars. It has been a
great satisfaction to the Cadillac manu-
facturers and agents to find that the
new models are as easy-riding as any
big car on the market, and much cas-
Ter than nine-tenths of the other
makes.
An invalid took ride In one of the
new models a short while ago and
stated that the ride from Honolulu 10
Waialua was less firing than any one
half mile spin which she had ever had
before. This is enough to convince
almost everyone of the wonderful adj
vances which the Cadillac has made in
regards to the ease of riding Of their
cars.
Orders for the new six-cylinder
Packards are commencing to pour into
the Won Hamm-Young Company from
all quarters, as the cOnnoisseurs Of
the islands have just commenced TO
realize the wonderful transformation
which the six-cylinder Packard has
made Just little ride of perhaps
ten minutes duration, in one of the
new cars, will convince anyone OF any
mind whatever, no matter how preju-
diced he may be, that the new Six
Packard is absolutely and positively
the height of perfection.
No suggestion of an improvement on

Little Inventions That
Have Made Fortunes

Every time anybody in the United
States pulls the cap off a beer bot
tie or a soda water bottle with the
intent to quench a thirst temporarily
or otherwise, he puts the traction Of a
cent into the pocket of one william
II. Painter, of Baltimore.
a good many people have pulled
these caps in the last few years and
Painter is consequently an ever-in-
creasing millionaire. Yet the cap for
bottles is a small thing, an idea crys-
tallized and patented. The patent is
the source of the millions.
Painter, however, carried his patent
in his pocket for six years before he
succeeded in interesting capital in it's
manufacture. Then a man of means
advanced the necessary capital in re-
turn for half interest in the patent
and a company was formed.
At the end of the first year he and
Painter each had net $27 900 in his
pocket. Now the invention has crowd
ed all other shoppers for fizzy water
off the market and a big factory in
Baltimore turns out caps by the mil
lion every day.
An idea that is even simpler is the
humps on the hooks that furnish so
much employment for married men
Just before theater time Women had
been fastening their dresses up with
hooks and eyes for a generation, and
it is probable that someone had made
a lot of money out of the original in
vention. But hooks had a way of COM
ing unfastened, much to the chagrin
of the neat and fussy.
Then came the genius of the hook
and eye. A man who was wide awake
despite his residence in Philadelphia
bent one of these hooks so as to make
a hump in it. He tried hooking it up
and found that it remained hooked.
He patented it and has monopolized
the business through his "see the
hump" advertisements ever since.
One day a man stood behind his
wife while she put up her hair. The
hairpins of those days were straight
pieces of wire. They did not Stay
put" very effectually. The woman in
this case bent her hairpins before put
ting them in. Her husband saw her
do it. The result was the invention
of the crinky hairpin which is today
used in carload lots by the women of
the world.
Thaddeus Fairbanks was a New
England former, with long whiskers
and much Yankee ingenuity. In his
time old-fashioned steelyards were the
only accurate means of weighing the
products of the farm. Platform scales
were unknown, for nobody had ever
worked out a method of arranging the
levers that supported the platform in
such a way that an object could pull
