Paquin's Long Coats.
The long coat which Nine. Paquin
showed last September is made by her
again this spring. Against the slim au-
dacity Of the other jackets this one seems
clumsy and old-fashioned. 1t flares from
the waist reaches nearly to the knees
and is often braided. hTe fronts do not
meet by four inches, and they display
splendid waistcoat of satin, plain bro
caded that fastens to the bust and ends
there or rises to the back of the coat.
Certainly no woman would object to
such a street costume IL she was in
search as so many women are, of some
thing that does not reflect the empha-
sized tendencies of the day. The modern
list will say that 1t has no style to it, but
the woman whom it suits can hold UP the
comforting fact to herself that 1t was
made by Paquin-one of the quartet of
modernists who govern great portion of
the world of fashion, whose ideas and
creations are used even in rural free
delivery districts where the name is UNI
known.
Opposed to these extra long and slightly
full coats are new ones that any de-
mure conservative would accept without
demur They reach only to the waist,
are extra broad across the bust and
shoulders, have wide three-quarter sleeves
and high or low collars. They abound in
the large shops and seem to be very
popular, but from artistic point of
view they lack style. They have no
character. and while they disguise the
outline of the figure they do not estab-
lish any of their own. This. 1t seems 10

FLANDERS PLANT IS
NOW UNDER new HEAD
E. Leroy Pelletier Has Pur-
chased Equipment and
Stock for Electrics

Word comes from Detroit to the eff
feet that E. LIE Roy Pel1etier has pur-
chased the Flanders electric plant,
equipment and stock on hand and will
organize a company to continue the
manufacture of this popular electric
car.
Tt will be recalled that the Flanders
electric was involved In the Flanders
Manufacturing company, which concern
resulted from the unifying of several
concerns, each making different model.
Though the electric car always made
money--in fact, was one OF the biggest
successes in that branch of the automo-
bile industry-it was involved in the
difficulties of the present company
when, as a result of the disagreement
between Flanders and the Studebaker
interests, the former, though not actu-
ally insolvent, was forced into a re-
ceivership.
Pelletier has always been enthusiastic
over the electric, and though he lost
heavily in the crash OF the Flanders
company he has outbid all others for
the plants and all that go with them.
There were several bidders, as the car
was known to be one OF the best.

For the first time In number of

Closed demonstrators have been sup
piled to various branches and the book

features. These include the Swiss rail-

Ending a flying trip around the
world faster than anybody ever trav-

his final dash to New York in high
powered six cylinder Alec car.
With all speed regulations suspended,
Mears was driven at so miles an hour
from the Grand Central station to the

The route taken By the car was from
Vanderbilt avenue and Forty-second

Chambers street and Park row. where
the trip was officially terminated.
Mears arrived at the Grand Central

.BODEGA TOUR IS BEST
FOR 4 SUNDAY OUTING
Sonoma Trip Advocated as
Pleasure and Good Fish
ing Excursion


The motorist who Is looking for
new sections to visit within a short
reach of San Francisco, should take
the drive over to Bodega bay says
Henry D. Mccoy. manager Of Chans-
Tor Lyon company
Last week we discovered this trip
on a run to the Salmon Creek Fish
ing club. at Bodega. We found the
roads from Sausalito to Petaluma fine,
except outside Of Sausalito, but If we
should have found them even good at
the latter point, am afraid the sur
prise would have been SO great that
we. would never have reached the fish
ing grounds
From Petaluma one turns westward
to Bodega bay. This is over an ordf-
nary country road, which is only fair,
being quite rough in spots, but the
trip from Bodega bay along the coast
to Point Reyes is a wonderful ride.
and makes one forget inconvenience
experienced In crossing to the coast.
From Point Reyes we crossed over to
Fairfax, then on through San Rafael
and by way Of Greenbrae to Sausa-
Ito
This makes a delightful drive for
a Sunday and can easily be made by
any of standard makes of cars of to-

MOTOR TRUCKS SOLVE
DELIVERY PROBLEMS
Merchants in Competing for
Trade Compelled to Use
Motor Trucks

THE solution of what appears to be
one of the largest problems to be over
come by the men who are working out
the marvellous merchandising systems
Of American cities seems to lie in the
development of the electric commercial
vehicle, says Ivan de Jongh, general
manager of the Pioneer Motor Truck
sentative of the General Motors line
of trucks.
Although electric commercial We
hicles have been used for almost two
decades. it was not until half a dozen
years or so ago that they began to
take an important place in our present
day scheme of haulage and delivery.
Today the electric truck is making the
most extraordinary advances in its field
city and suburban use
Last year the number of electric
commercial cars used in some OF our
metropolitan cities increased consider
ably over so per cent. The develop
ment of the retail trade in the larger
American cities during the past decade
has been a commercial wonder to the
rest of the world. Improved merchan-
dising methods brought a sudden and
enormous increase of sales in all sorts
of lines
Department stores have had big
place in changing conditions, but every
sort of retail and. mercantile concern
has been effected. The concentration
of industries has been another factor in
increasing the use of electric trucks.
Food, milk and produce supplies
have been centered in the cities and all
this has tended to multiply the neces-
sity of adequate and efficient transporta-
tion methods. The manufactures of sup
plies-as he may be called-the baker,
the brewer, florist, soft drink maker
and the middleman, like the wholesale
meat or provision dealer--have come to
the same relation to their customers
(the grocer, the drug store and the
butcher shop) that the dealer has al
ways occupied toward his customers.
Meanwhile the buying public has de-
manded that it's supplies be fresher
than in less discriminating days, as
quality. So the wholesaler has had a
new delivery problem to meet, and,
like the retailer, it has been rapidly
complicated by the constant widening
of the territory in which business is
transacted.
The horse has failed to meet the
emergency. Being only flesh and blood,
he has only flesh and blood endurance.
He could make just so many miles per
day at such a speed. He had to be
given occasional rests.
He had to be allowed a certain
amount of sickness. And with the in
creasing strain, he not only could not
cover the ground that had to be COW
cred with the spreading out of our
cities, but he became less reliable in
the field which represented the utmost
of his ability"

HERE is CHEAP
FUEL FOR TOUR

From Indianapolis to the Pacific
ocean In an automobile for less than
81 is almost as cheap as walking. Yet
that is the kerosene fuel cost record
established by Ray Harroun in the
Henderson car No. In the trip of the
Indiana automobile makers to the
coast There were four or five pas
sengers in the Henderson all the way
across. The total cost of kerosene
from Indianapolis to San Francisco was
less than s26, which, divided by four
or five, makes less than 81 per pas
senger-less than Weston pays for

With motorcycles in use in a large
portion Of the departments of the gov

wonder how he ever got along for so
many years without the aid of this
speedy, reliable and economical con-
veyance.
Motorcycles are used as time savers
by navy yard employees; the fish and
game commission uses them in en-
forcing the laws; the forestry depart
ment finds motorcycles useful in con-
servation of the Oregon forests; men
in the reclamation service have also
adopted the two wheeler as the most
speedy durable and economical ->eans
