MODERN AND ANTIQUE
TRAVEL TOGETHER

Upon several occasions recently,
business men and Others in Salem
have either rushed to the streets ex-
citedly or made a quick getaway
from the curb, due to what they first
supposed to be a runaway team. These
frequent disturbances, however, were
due to Romeo Gouley, one of Salem's
most prominent citizens, who at pres
ent resides upon his farm north Of
the city. Mr.. Gouley owns big tour
ing car, and, notwithstanding its
magnificence, he deliberately bitches
a democrat wagon to the hind axle
Of the car, and sails gaily to and
from his farm with whatever mer-
chandise he happens to need or pro-
duce he wants to deliver. Mr.. Gouley
abides strictly by the laws governing
speed of autos in the city, but owing
to his trailer being somewhat out OF
tune, and absolutely unfamiliar with
gait over four miles per hour a
series of noises result when the big
touring car snakes its lowly follower
over the pavement.
