Better Values Than Ever Offered
By Automobile Trade to Public

NEW YORK. Jan. with the
two big holidays out OF the way. the
exodus OF factory Representatives
from the automobile centres-De-
troit. Cleveland. Buffalo. Indianapo-
lis Chicago and other Western cities
will gst under way. For months
they have been studying the nne
points Of the new models. with a
view to demonstrating them to the
Eastern public during the New York
shows. They will come here primsd
with figures and logic to show that
the automobile Of 1912 Is the best
ever.
And they will be talking plain
facts. The American automobile Of
1912 Will be the best value ever Of
fered to the public. From the small
car at $500 to the stately limousine
at $500 there will be excellence to
a greater degree than ever before.
Never has the purchaser been able
to get 90 much for his money. From
top to bottom the three requisites
sturdinees. beauty and comfort-wili
be found, and there appears to be
firm ground for the optimism that
tinges the anticipAtions for the year
to come.

MAY ADOPT NEW
STYLE OF GOLF BALL

NEW YORK, Jan. at may be
q long look ahead, but for all that
there are golfers who imagine they
see trouble regarding the possible
necessity Of standardixing the ball. In
Great Britain this subject has al
ready claimed considerable attention.
and there are those who 80 30 far
a. to declare that something win
have to be done II the inventors man
age to create . new ban capable OF
being driven much further.
Leighton Calkins. for years promi-
nent in offcfal golf circles In this
country. believes that before attempt
inE to regulate the ball It would be
better to seek . remedy through re-
construction OF the links. In other
words. even supposing = ball that
average players would be able to pro-
pei 800 or even $50 yarda. should be
placed on the market. there would be
a way out Of the difhculty by adding
three or four holes from 500 TO 700
yards in length. This, according to
to the total length OF the courses, his
idea being to throw two holes into
one and at the same time adding
more short holes The short holes
may always be good provided they
are laid out properly. The reason
that II would be poor policy to try
to add to the total length of the links
IL that clubs are now finding II diff
hcuit to get the land necessary for
even the average eighteen hole cir
cult
