When buying window shades get
an extra set Of catches. Put one set

the shades on the lower catches and
leave the window down from the top.
This gives perfect ventilation and
prevents the shade from blowing

JOKE LET THEM
IN ON BALL GAME

John Duffy, comptroller of the
Hotel DUPONT. acted as host to the
heads of the different departments of
the hotel yesterday afternoon by tax
ing the crowd out to the ball game
in a big automobile and supplying
cigars and refreshments.
The affair was a pratical joke on
Mr.. Duffy and he bit with all the
viciousness of bull dog before he
discovered that he had been sold out.
Early in the afternoon about 20 of
his friends came to him and announc-
ed that they we're ready. He looked
sort Of surprised for a moment and
just then a chauffeur entered and
said that the machines for the party
was waiting.
Mr. Duffy, being taken unawares,
said that he had not ordered an au-
tomobile. The chauffeur, being noti-
fed in advance, then began TO ge,
in his end of the entertainment. He
made Mr.. Duffy believe that II he ,did
not pay S. for his. the chauffeurs
trouble. he, Mr.. Duffy, would have to
take the party to the ball grounds
and foot the bill
Two boxes Of cigars OF rather two
empty boxes were also brought in
evidence. Mr.. Duffy believed them tc
be filled and said he had not invited
nor had he intended to take the party
After a little more joking on the part
of his friends, Mr.. DUFFY saw the Joke
and the trip followed.

8 YEAR OLD BOY
DRTVESBUDSON CAR

Almost the most amazing feature Of
the enormously powerful modern mo-
tor car is its marvellous ease of opera

nothing of sustained 60-mile an hour

by small boy of years of age,
Weighing just one pound for each Of

thy. that Harry partington. a man

pany. calls special attention to It.
John Maurice Albright .Ir of Rich

is s years old, is just 50 ~ inches

A photograph was taken at Glen
Miller Park Richmond Ind. where
tho party. consisting OF Mayor Zim-
Norman and others, were driven by
the Albright boy.
This was commented on by Mr.
Partington as evidence Of the fact
that under reasonable and sane legis-
lation, the operation Of an automo-
bile Is actually safer than the driving
Of horse OF horses.
Young Albright Is not a big boy,
yet his little feet and hands are pos
sessed of ample strength to bring a
powerful motor car to a stop within
its own length when travelling at a
moderately fast gait
The public does not realize the
enormous braking power Of the mod
ern motor car. A locomotive engine
weighing in the neighborhood Of ESQ.,
600 pounds, has braking power Of
only about one square inch to every
100 or 1900 pounds. While in such
cars as the Hudson. illustrated. the
braking. or stopping" power is about
one inch Of brake surface to approx
mately nine pounds.
This is the reason that the slight
strength of a child, when intelligent
ly used, is perfectly capable Of in
slant control of even these powerful
machines. AS a matter of fact, thou
sands Of Hudson cars are driven by
young girls of slight physique. and
since this car is electrically cranked,
there remains no single feature that
is beyond their ability to handle.
