The preliminary an nouncement as made by Senator Moody here this afternoon caused quite a rip pie of interest in political circles, and though it has been rumored for some time that he was seriously contem- plating making the race for Congress against the present incumbent, Capt. Richmond Pearson Hobson, the an- nouncement coming as it did was all the more interesting.

Judge Brandon has just returned from trip to Washington, where he has been looking over the situation from the national capital Judge Brandon will open headquarters in Tuscaloosa at once and prepare to wage a vigor- ous fight for Senator Moody's election to the office which he seeks.

 F. l.. Clarkson, formerly his private secretary and campaign manager. Cap tain Hobson was scheduled to speak in Tuscaloosa today, but cancelled the en- ssagsment account of having work
 in Washington to attend to. It is thought that since Senator Moody has formally announced for the office held at present by Captain Hobson, the latter will hasten to his district for campaign purposes.
 Than Senator Moody, there is hardly a better known public man in the state today. He has served his county in- numerable times in the state assembly, He is a large land owner in Tuscaloosa county. and Is a graduate from the State University, taking a degree in law from that institution. He former ly practced law in this city, but for the past several years has been en- gagged in the banking business, being president of the First National bank of this city. Prior to the last guber- material election Senator Moody was strongly urged to enter the race for governor. but declined owing to press of private affairs. His announcement for Congress therefore is all the more interesting when this is taken into consideration.

a necessity also finds that it promotes
, health and clearness of brain. Driv-

$multiplies UNNECESSARILY the pleasure
and benefits of merely riding in { car,
in the past many owners have
made objection to the inconvenience
of motoring which were once consid-

has often enjoyed the privileges which
should go to the owner.
Now, the development of an eff

from the drivers seat have removed
the last of the original inconvenience
Of motoring. The owner may now en-
