am not writing this to sell

Just the Start

REQ the Fifth is not built for a
season. The present demand is just
the beginning.
This car, remember, is the final
result of % years spent in car build

The Underprice

There was never a car so under

NEWS ON THIS END

According to a dispatch from Tren-

OF late of a change in the head Of
the Tri-State League II became
public yesterday that George W
Heckert. manager OF the Trenton
team, would in all probability be the
president of the league in 1914. when
President Carpenters term expires.

evident that it is bound to come

According TO the Trenton True

Mr. Carpenter dealt with the Altoona
club, in their failure TO furnish the
required bonds, the Johnstown Dem
