There. were more than 400 vehicles In line
In the recent New York parade. of which
humber more. than 80 per cent. were en-
tered by private owners. While we DO
not anticipate quite as many cars IN line
here. as this will be the first parade OF
the kind ever held in this city, we do
believe that we will not be very far be-
hind those that entered in the great cara
can which surprised the citizens of Man
haitian. Everything will have q place IN
line, from the motorcycle delivery van
to the huge trucks capable of transport
ing from ten to fifteen tons, with engines
from one to four cylinders. OF course
the persons who will be in the majority
at the inspection that is to be made at
Olympic Park at the conclusion of the
run will be the sober, thoughtful business
men, intent upon finding a business yehi--
Gle that will give them the best service
for the least money.
AN owner of n pleasure car may take
little heed Of the items of npkeep and re-
pairs. and he may even forget to add on
some few of these outlays when he is talk
Ing to his friends about what a fine car
he drives. but let this man become the
owner of a commercial vehicle and he can
tell by simply calling In his ~bookkeeper
lust how much the machine has cost him
for any particular length OF time. The
commercial ear has u little harder game
to face than the pleasure type. The Sc
lection of a commercial car is n matter
OF business, and business only; no feeling
of preference for design or finish infln-
ences the purchaser. II the general pub
lie were kept as fully Informed of the
feats performed by commercial vehicles
as II is OF the performances of pleasure
cars and racing cars there would be u
speedy revision in the popular estimate
Of the power-wagon and truck. These
vehicles have proved their ability TO
climb steep hills, to proceed successfully
over lev streets. where horses slip ana
fall: to plough their way through snow
banks and to make cross-country trips
that would be looked upon as real ac-
embellishments by the occupant OF a
pleasure car"
The office of Manager Claude e. Hoi-

NEWARK F. c. VS.. CLAN MCDONALD.

One of the biggest soccer contests of
the season in the New York and District
League will be decided at Blatts's oval,
Brooklyn, tomorrow afternoon, when the
Newark +. c., of this city, will play the
Clan McDonalds. Should the locals win
they will have the best chance Of any
other club in the league to win the cham
pionship. The McDonAlds are leading and
a win for them will mean first honors.
The Macs" however, have engaged in
more contests than either the Newarks
or the Brooklyn Celtics. AS II stands
now the locals and the McDonalds have
about an even chance of winning, each
club having lost five points. The Celtics
have lost six and, ms Newark still has
another game to play with the Brooklyn
lads, the finish is bound to be close. The
local boys viii leave the Park place sta
ton at 1.40 O'Clock tomorrow, aceompa-
MED by a large crowd of rooters.
