Cole company intended to make an ad-
dition to the plant costing $l5o,VVV II.
order to take care of the lnefeaseu
demand for Cole cars.
The statement follows:
Before leaving ON his trip through
the west to get in touch with locaiizeu
conditions for the sale and advertising
of his product, President j. j. Cole OF
the Cole Motor Car company released
instructions to Herbert L. Bass, local
architect, to prepare bids for Sloo,oUV
addition to the present Cole plant. IL
is expected to begin work May !, anu
have the building completed OCTOBER l.
"This increase in the already large
plant of the Cole Motor Car company
is one of the strongest arguments OF
the health of the automobile industry
and CT the fact that the automoplie
industry generally is to do trehen-
dous business in the next few years.
1T is the policy of Mr.. Cole TO con-
tinue the policies he has pursued IN
building an automobile that is properly
balanced as to weight, with horsepower
to carry this weight, an axle to sustain
1t and easy riding qualities, with econI
omy of operation as prime esseh'iai
for success.
with the added facilities for manu-
featuring the Cole production Will ps
greatly increased, for the Cole Motor
Car company has for the past two years
found itself short of cars at the emu
of the season. and had to cancel ordersi
1t is not doubted but that TINS same
condition will prevail this year.

THE SELF-STARTER
is o. X. AND EFFICIENT

Hubert Drennen of the Cadillac agen-
cy, handling the cars first enjoying the
self starter, is well pleased with the
result.
He said yesterday that cars without
the self starter were out of date and
added:
"The car without an efficient self
starter might just as well bear the date
of Adams birth as 1913. A funny thing
in that connection is that half the
manufacturers were in the air last
spring as to whether the pubic really
demanded a self starter. Most of them
finally guessed right and those who
didn't are having hard time peddling
their product But no harder time than
those with starters that have not
panned out right. The Cadillac drew
one of the lucky numbers. as usual.

White for Travellers

From the Louisville Herald
physician who has had good deal
OF experience attending the victims OF
railroad wrecks sounds the knell of the
black dressing gown, silk, muslin or WOOL
no matter what the material, SO often
worn by women travelling at night.
''When travelling at night women should
make it a point to wear white even more
than when sleeping safely at home III
their own beds,'' said this DOCTOR More
than once in my experience among rail-
road wrecks / have known women wear
ing black travelling nightgowns or dress
ing gowns to be passed by in the search
for victims.
'They had been made unconscious by
injury or else had tainted through shock
and fright; and nurses and doctors
searching for victims failed to find them

THE MIDNIGHT CHU CHU
A LA HIGHLAND AVENUE

Complaints by the wholesale are be-
ing made to various agencies for the
relief of citizens over the unexampled
driving of automobiles around Highland
avenue at night. That clutches are
left wide ojen, horns are turned on
not to be cut off until the full sweep
is completed. and other unnecessary
methods of awakening the sleeping cit
liens are INDUCED in are n few of
the annoyanoes of, residents along that
beautiful driveway
During the past week a function ad-
mirable in its purpose and productive
of untold good was given at the Coun-
try club. A few citizens-very few
were inclined to sleep that night rather
than participate in the function which
attracted the attention of hundreds of
persons. Those who imagined in their
moments of charitable inclination that
sleep would be possible reclloned with
out their automobile drivers. For hours
after midnight the "chu chu' sirens and
other noise producing instruments on
automobiles awakened the residents.
causing mumbled words of unlSindness
against every form of rapid Transports
tion.
A driver sweeping along the avenue
decided to. waken Culpepper Exum as
he passed that residence and turned
wide open the horn. Result: Mr.. Exum,
doing, finally rose up with start,
thinking perhaps that another referen-
dun had passed by. Continuing the ride

said passed down the avenue home-
ward or garage bound, only to disturb
the entire citizenship that are fortu-
nate enough to have homes along there.
OF course when the Bachelors was
passed coming into the Five Points see
ton, lights were shining resplendent
and the noise was unnecessary Tor The
purpose previously employed.
1t is asserted by the well known clti-
zens, who are somewhat indignant that
such disturbances are absolutely un-
necessary If the drivers would only use
discretion. There Is no real objection
to fast driving after midnight if the
horns do not blow and the cut-offs are
out of commission.

TN ITS tendencies Birmingham is
growing more cosmopolitan than
by the mere proposed appointment
Of a vice commission.
One of the surest signs of growing
efficiency here so far as cosmopolitan
traffic control is concerned is the grow
ing knowledge of the traffic policemen
and their exhibition of that knowledge.
The subject of traffic regulation down.
town especially during the peak load"
hours, has engaged the attention of
police experts, automobile experts and
Others for some time. The people or
Birmingham that frequently visit the
larger cities have from time to time
been disappointed in the way traffic
was handled in Birmingham and more
especially the work of patrolmen. As
q general proposition those patrolmen
placed on the traffic squads have been
satisfied to hold receptions in the cen
tire Of the streets, fold their arms in
satisfied way and permit traffic to go
unchecked and at will. Mention was
made in this column some time ago of
the performance of a policeman during
the rush hours at the corner of Third
and Nineteenth. IT was mentioned at
that time how efficiently that patrol
man handled the traffic situation. If
1t is presumed that at least a portion
of further efficiency is due to that COM
plimentary reference to the patrolmen,
surely pardon will at once be granted
the compiler of this column.
The second patrolman to secure COM
pliments for his most efficient method
of handling traffic is Robert Waldrop,
Dne of the oldest-from point of SER
Sice-and well Known of the Birming
ham Finest" During the past week
he was stationed a the corner Of Twen-
tieth street and First avenue. During
the peak load" hours Captain Waldrop
handled the eongested traffic situation
Dust as efficiently as it is possible al
most for any patrolman to do. In every
gesture and act he handled the situa-
fon so well as to remind travellers of
Michigan avenue traffic men or Broad
way traffic men.
For two hours small group of citi-
Eens, including Birmingham Railway,
Light & Power company officials, news
paper men, and others watched Mr..

GRIZZLY ATTACKS SURVEYOR.
Man Feigned Death and Escaped with
Severe Mauling.

Left for dead by an infuriated fe-
male grizzly bear who had mauled
him almost to unconsciOusness is the
nerve-racking and thrilling expert
ence that X. C. Chapman, chief of a
Dominion geological survey party,
while camping on Mineral creek, near
Wilmer, says the Vancouver Sun.
Mr. Chapman had gone out from
the camp alone with his rife to ex-
anime the mourtain-side behind the
camp, which is very steep, as to the
best place to scale it for triangulation
purposes on the morrow. Presently<
he sat down on log to rest; a bear.
charged at him from some bushes
without the slightest warning.
AS he struggled in surprise to free
himself he saw a pair Of cubs to one
side and behind MIN. UnknoWingly
he had sat down to rest between a.
female grizzly and her young. Firing
one shot, he rushed down the steep
mOuntainside. the bear following
with such determination and force
that it rushed past him.
Instantly Mr. Chipman turned and
went back up the hill. AS bear,
however, can run. easier up hill than
down, he was quickly caught by the
huge beast and shaken as easily as
a terrier shakes a rat. Luckily the
fierce shaking caused the bear to lose
her footing on the steep hillside and
both rolled together some distance
down before bringing up.
1t was now that Mr. Chapman dis
played the courage and presence of
mind that saved his life, for on bring
ing up among some bushes he lay
perfectly quiet, feigning death. Sat-
isfed, after shifting him all over, that
he really was so, the bear ambled
away to her cubs.
On his men getting to him he was
carried into camp and made comfort
able, while a couple of men were sent
down here for Doctor Opie, as it was
found impossible to carry Mr.. Chip
man out from the head of Miner
Creek to the junction with Toby river
and the logging road. Doctor Opie
got to Mr.. Chapman about midday on
Saturday, after a gallant fight for
miles with burnt and fallen timber.
He found that the leather leg
gings worn by Mr. Chapman had
practically saved his right leg below
the knee from serious injury.

A Strange Story.

the name Of Smothers. The family
consisted Of John Smothers. his wife,
himself, their little daughter. five

One night after suyDer the little
g:rl Was seized with = severe coIic and

get some medicine.
He never came back.
The little girl recovered and in
tine grew M TO womanhood.
The mother grieved very much
over her husbands disappearance.
and it was nearly three months be-
fore she married again and moved to
San Antonio.
The little girl also married in time,
and after a few years had rolled
around, she also had a little girl five
years Of age.
She still lived in the same house
where they dwelt when her father
had left and never returned.
One night by a remarkable coinci-
dence her little girl was taken with
cramp collie on the anniversary of the
disappearance of John Smothers. who
would now have been her grand
father if he had been alive and had
a steady lob.
Il will go downtown and get some
medicine for her. said John Smith
(for it was none other than he whom
she had married.)

wife "You foo might disannear
