LOS ANGELES MOOSE USE
AUTO IN RELIEF WORK.
Machine Is Necessary to Reach
Its MANY Members.

Several months ago., there ap-
peared a special need for charitable
work among it's members, the Loyal
Order of Moose, of Los Angeles, estab-
lished what is known as its relief COM
mittee. Immediately the wisdom of
the move became apparent, and since
it's formation the work of the commit
tee has been most effective.
Handicapped, however, because of
the lack of facilities for calling on the
members in need and distributing sup
plies, the officers of the lodge hit upon
the idea of purchasing an automobile.
So apparent was the need of the relief
committee that the idea of buying a
car for It's use met with hearty APP
prevail, and the progressive members of
the lodge voted to purchase a touring
car. Now the relief committee has the
automobile.
Our membership" writes w. A. AL
derson. of Los Angeles, dictator of the
lodge, sis over 1860, and so large that
it is impossible for the relief committee
to do it's duty without the aid of the
automobile. The new car is being used
TO great advantage every day and by
It's use the Loyal Order of Moose has
jumped into the front ranks in its work
for charity. We have found the auto
mobile an effective factor for the suc-
cess of the relief committee, n can
strongly recommend hat other organi-
cations buy q motorcar for a similar
purpose"

BULLDOG" HERE
On WORLD TRIP
Abbott Detroit Car Has Already
Travelled Over 72,000
Miles.

Local motorists who have been fol-
lowing the progress of the Abbott-De-
troit Bulldog" and it's intrepid driver,
DR.. Charles G.. Percival, editor OF
Health Magazine, during its 100, 600
mile trip around the borders of the
United States, were pleased to avail
themselves of the opportunity to speak
to this well-known driver, who arrived
in Newark today after having COM
pleted over $4,000 miles of his long
journey.
DR.. Percival began his trip in the
latter part OF 1910. Since hat time
he has covered a great deal of ground
in this country, Mexico, Atska and
Canada, encountering roads and tour
ing conditions which would have made
a less determined driver give up the
trip.
Upon leaving this city the trail of the
Bulldog will wind it's way down the
Atlantic coast to the Isthmus of Pan
anna, where the canal route will be
traversed, after which the Sandwich
Islands, Japan, China, the Philippines
Australia, New Zealand, Asia and Eu-
rope will be toured.
A complete story of the trip will
be published later in four well-illus-
trated volumes. Accompanying DIR.
Percival on his trip is Siberia, a bull
dog, who has ridden in the car since
the start of the to-be memorable trip.

Views Taken During
Premier Tour.

Members Of the New York Press
Club, with families and friends. COM
pletely filled the east room of the Wal
dorf-Astorfa during the Madison
Square Garden show to see the moving
pictures of the ocean-to-ocean our of
twelve Premier automobiles that last
summer marked a new epoch in motor
car touring. The audience was eX-
tremely enthusiastic throughout the
performances.
Scores of beautiful panoramas Of
scenes in the Allegheny, Rocky and ST.
ezra Nevada mountains and incidents
along the road in all of the thirteen
States crossed held the rapt gaze of the
spectators, and, in addition, dozens Of
strikingly beautiful pictures taken with
IN ordinary camera were thrown on
the screen. The dipping of the cars at
the start and finish, respectively, in
the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, and a
game of baseball in the heart of the
great American desert, were particu-
larly good scenes.
In connection with the moving-pic.
ture show a majority Of the forty
transcontinental tourists held a re-
union, at which plans were laid for an
other tour this year, to eclipse, if pos
sible that of 1911. These tourists are
prominent Easterns, who have
formed an organization known as Mo-
tor Tourists.

DECORAT|ONSFOR
AUTO SHOW ARE
To Be ELABORATE
Special Attention to Be Given to
Displaying Cars OF
Exhibitors.
ILLUMINATED SIGNS WILL
BE FREELY DISPLAYED
Event Opens in First Regiment
ArmOry February II and
Closes February "a.

Announcement was made TINS morn
inging by the management of the New
ark automobile show of the decorations
which are to form a setting for the cars
displayed at the First Regiment Ar
mory during exhibition week, Febru
AIRY II TO a. Contracts have been
closed with the decorators and cleo
trical contractors which insure a color
and lighting effect that will combine
TO form a pleasing background to he
cars, bringing them out in sharp relief.
Complaint has been voiced because at
some OF the metropolitan automobile
displays the decorative features have
not been adjusted to set the machines
of to the best advantage. This fault
viii be carefully avoided at the local
show. The cars the thing is the
slogan of the Newark exhibitors man
agement.
Blue and white will predominate in
The Newark show color scheme with
Just a touch of pink here and there to
relieve the GOODNESS which the other
Two tones would otherwise produce. a
canopy effect entirely concealing the
pare ROOF IfuSSeS Oh the great DullQlHS
will be used, with sufficient f%estooning
of bunting and lights to add grace to
the general scheme.
Something unique in the way of
illuminated signs will carry the gen.
eral tone. After much experiment the
decorators, and management have de-
cided on the use of a similar sign stan
dard to that which graced the 1911 ex-
hibit in Newark. but the glass panels
carrying the names of the exhibits will
this year be of frosted glass, with let
1ering in dead black. The central
Illumination from each panel will be
furnished by cora~l-colored incandescent
lamps of high candle power. The re-
suit of this combination will be that in
the daytime the names will stand out
in bold relief on the frosted back
ground, while at night they will appear
in silhouette upon a pinkish field, form
ing an extremely effective and legible
marker.
Snow-white trellis work is to be used
as a. frame for the accessory exhibits

and at various other points about the
ground floor. At the centre of the big
armory there will be a latticed sum-
mer house in place of the ~bandstand of
last year, with seats for show visitors
who may be weary of sightseeing and
wish to rest for a few moments. A
trellised arch will greet the visitors
gaze as he first enters the show struc-
ture at the main entrance to the ar
mory, and there will be miniature re-
productions of this at each end of the
main aisle, corresponding in architec-
tural features with the latticed sum
mer house.
Over all this white t%rellis, both of
the main floor and of the accessory
booths, will be draped a %profusion of
genuine Southern smilaX, which Will be
kept fresh throughout the entire week
of the show.
In addition to the ample Lighting for
ordinary purposes which the armory
has, there will be installed several
thousand ~inoandescent lights of low
candlepower, which will yield an album
dance of illumination without offending
the eye in the way arc lamps of high
intensity do. These incandescents will
be distributed about the armory both
in festoons and in chandeliers CEN
trally disposed with reference to the
main aisle. In the exact centre of the
armory will be placed a monster chan
delier fifteen feet in diameter and hav-
ing more than 400 sixteen candlepower
bulbs. 1t is figured that It will require
something like thirty horsepower, or
the average power of an automobile
motor of the present-day car to operate
the lights in this piece alone.

WITH statesmen AND USERS OF CONNER GAL CARS
AUTO TRUCK SHOW
RESULTS IN SALES
Exhibitors Demonstrate How
Vehicles Are Being Made
Nearly ''Fool-proof."

NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-The attend
ance at the auto show has been salts
factory both to the exhibitors and to
the management. The exhibitors are
especially pleased over the show be-
cause the business done has been ex-
cellent both in retail sales and in
securing new agents.
One of the most interesting things
about the development Of the motor
truck as shown by the vehicles ex-
hibited is the care taken to safeguard
the trucks from the recklessness and
ignorance of fool" drivers. In some
instances provision has been made to
seal up certain parts in an effort to
make certain that the trucks will be
run only at a conservative rate of
speed.
Many makers of business motor
vehicles are putting governors on the
engines. in order to prevent drivers
running the vehicles at a rate that
would soon send them to the junk
heap or repair shop. Because 1t is the
general practise to place inexperienced
men on motor trucks, designers of this
class of vehicles are making them as
near "fool-proof' as possible.
Another tendency of motor truck de-
sign is to so construct the chassis that
it is possible to emove the transmits
sion, or the clutch, or the engine in
a few minutes and substitute another
in case of damage. Tt is felt by motor
truck designers that provision of this
kind is advisable. because it does away
with the possibilities of trucks being
out of service for extended periods
undergoing repairs to some part of the
mechanism that might be easily and
quickly removed.

IN AUTOS
STILL INCREASING
Never Greater Than This Year,
Says Motor Company
Head.
(By IL. O. Smith, President of the
Premier Motor Manufacturing

(By H. o.. Smith, President of the
Premier Motor Manufacturing
Company
If the attendance at the New York
show al be taken as an indication of
the publlc's interest, and it can, the
interest in motor cars was never
greater than at present. 1t is safe to
predict that the official figures will
show that the attendance at the show
was equal TO-, if not greater. than the
best previous year.
There was nothing spectacular or
sensational to mark this years exhibits
or the methods Of doing business. There
was evidence on all sides to indicate
clearly that the motorcar has reached
q high standard of perfection and that
even the buyers, are not looking for
radical changes
The greatest interest was shown in
the latest types of body construction.
This is true not only at the garden
show, but at the importers show, and
the show held at the Grand Central
Palace at the same time. Among the
imported cars, as with the American
cars, the models exhibited were char
acterized by but few If any important
mechanical changes, but there were to
be noted a great many innovations in
body and construction design. This
did not relate so much to general ex-
ternal appearances as efforts to add to
the comfort and pleasure of the pas
sengers. Many of the imported cars
were fitted with combination bodies,
combining the ideas characterizins
open and closed bodies, u bodies as
would give all of the desirable quail
ties of the fully enclosed l~andaulet or
limousine and are convertible into an
open touring body.
While no maker would expect to run
his factory on the orders obtained at
one of these shows, as most contracts
are closed before the shows, yet 1t was
the prevalent impression that moro
business was transacted at this show
than at any other for a great many
years. This not only represents orders
from local patrons in and about New
York, but there was also in attendance
a great number of prospective pur-
chasers who came to New York with
their dealers to make comparisons be-
fore placing their orders.

apportioning the members as pro-
~vided for by the Constitution.
The Senate declined to concur
in the House amendments to the
redistricting bill and a compro'
mise was not effected before adj
journment.
Governor Mann states that the
Legislature had IS days in which
to redistrict and having failed to
do so he will not call an extra
session. The Senate passed a
resolution authorizing the clerk
of the Senate to request the fee
collecting officers for information
as to fees received by them. II
they fail to give it he will so re-
port to the Senate in 1914.
The Senate and the House con-
Cured in a resolution authorizing
the purchase of the Ford Hotel
property as a site tor new office
buildings and also concurred in an
amendment recommended by Gov
ernor Mann which provides for
one State director on the Board
of Directors of the Richmond,
Fredericksburg & Potamac rail-
way.
The State passed a Senate hill
authorizing supervisors of coun-
ties to appropriate money to de-
fray the expenses of needy Con-
federate veterans who wish to
