travellers can be distributed and where
a registration. can be kept OF the yis-
itors, to show the number who pass
through here in a year.
The moving factors in the AutomO-

for its work here and that it can ac-
complish a great deal by activity. BY
giving protection to its members for
their care and extending them help in

new members can be induced to join.
The membership cards for 1914 viii, by
an arrangement to be made with the
city authorities, be good for a bond If
any member is arrested for breach Of

a great deal of trouble in making
bond when such an arrest is necessary.
