If the horsepower capacity of
all the automobiles in use in the
United States was concentrated
in one huge engine, it could
drive the machinery of every in
dustrial plant in the country,
with enough surplus power to
operate all its electric light
plants and propel all the battle
ships of the United States navy.
And there would still be an
unused surplus of approximately
100000 horsepower of energy.
By the end of next season the
combined horsepower capacity
of the automobiles will be
equivalent, in the opinion of en-
gineers, TO one-half of the COM
bincd horsepower of all the
steam railroad locomotives in
the entire country.
And railroading is nearly a
century old, while the autonno-
bile industry is but 10 year
old infant!
The distance travelled in a sim
gle day by the automobiles of
the United States is equivalent
to 1000 trips around the world
25,0OO,OOO miles a day, or about
o,000,0OO,000 miles a year.
In the development of the in
dustry, and in the utilization of
the automobile, the United

DIRGE
% Memory of Col. Alexander G. Hawes Who Died at
Honolulu, December, 1913
By EdUord Robson Taylor

Toll ye the bell all solemnly and slow
For Hawes dead
Let Business every carking care forego
While tears shed
For him who at the last lays down
His all unsulled brilliant crown.
A prineely man he who nobly bore
Through every FIRE.
From birth until his varied life DER,
Lies flag yet higher.
Till Glory from her lofty throne
Made all its starry folds her
He fought his country. battles till the day
And till the slave his shackles struck away
Was heavenward raised
And all the land, from shore to shore,
Was Freedoms own forevermore.
Fair Lsarning's children thronged his ample brain,
Who oft ranged through
Her radiant fields with many graphic strain
That brought to view
Of other times the life and thought
With scintillating jewels fraught
Full well he told Bohenia's wondrous tale,
And gathered round,
With him we would the Of Memory sail,
In joyance bound,
While Fellowship's fair breezes blew
And every heavy moment slew
Upon this EARTH in these loved halls, no more
His stately form
viii we behold, bending fervent DER
His accents warm,
Forget how fast the hours have fed
While were by his magic led
VII
Oh toll the bell for him no more we see,
Or joyous hear,
For him who helped to make this life TO be
Above all fear,
Who led by Love walked Dutys ways
Through all his memorable days.
VIII
Oh, toll the bell; the sacred dirge sing low
And solemn now,
For him bear in measured step and slow
With DEATH drawn brow
For him round whom griefs met;
For him forget.
