told that the road to San Diego
through the en- ranch was in grand
condition, and time could be saved by
taking 1t to Campo. just before
reaching the boundaries of the big
ranch. the tourists were disturbed by
the appearance of several horsemen
near the roadside.

and giving his Mitchell full power, he
steered off the main highway and cir
cumvented the cavalcade
Subsequently, another band of horse
men was encountered, and determined
to take no chances, the Salt Lake City
motorist turned on all the power the
car had and sped by the riders as if
they had been tied.
Arriving at Campo the tourists re-
ported to the customs officials they
had successfully eluded two bands of
Mexican outlaws. The customs off,
Gals smiled and gravely informed the
tourists that the supposed bandits or
guerillas were only federal line patrols
who had reported the automobile party
by telephone as a Group Of smugglers

to the venerable Sunday school hymn,
he Is at any rate progressive, for In
dia has 1000 motor cars, against the
three vehicles that the island of saga
and viking can boast.
rs it not interesting to know that
those islands of romance, of languor-
Gus life and sudden death, the Dutch
East Indies, Java, Sumatra and Bor-
neo have no less than 1000 motor cars
on their abbreviated road systems2
"Analyzing our figures we find that
the total number of motor cars in the
world is 1886. OF this number the
United States has 100000 and the rest
OF the world combined total of 613.-
sec, giving us more than two cars for
each one of all the other countries"

big things has just completed the first
motor car census of the world. In pre-
senting the interesting figures, Motor
says:
1.-THE amount of time and trouble nee
essary to obtain the material that has
gone into this compilation are, we
think, sufficiently obvious to furnish a
ready explanation as to why the mat
ter has never before been undertaken.
To get the figures used herein. 1t was
necessary, of course, to write to eve-y
country in the world, and our thanks
are cordially extended to the United
States consular agents and others in
the far corners of the earth, whose
prompt and efficient co cooperation made
possible the taking of the census
Tn many cases where no enumera-
ton Of motor cars in the country had
ever been attempted, it was necessary
for the local agent to get in touch with
the authorities of various political sub
divisions and collate the information so
obtained, to give us the total figures.
The figures comprised in this CEN
sus are in many ways suggestive and
significant. Who could fail to see the
obvious comparison between the Eng
lish and American motor car indus
tries in the 100000 cars of the one
and 100000 of the other. even after
due allowance Is made for the differ
ence in the populations of the two
countries.
"Who can doubt that one of the most
progressive motoring countries in the
world is our neighbor on the north,
when he contrasts the $4,000 cars of
aCnada with Germany's $1,000 and re-
members that the former is almost
roadless while the latter has one of
the finest highway systems in the
world.
rs It not surprising to find that the
cult of the motor car has penetrated
even to that hermit among nations,
Afghanstan. As matter of fact. all
most all the so motor cars in the coun-
try beyond the Khyber Pass are owned
by the ameer, who is a devoted motor
ist and amateur mechanic Of skill.
In the alphabetical list of countries
and cars, an ironical chance brings to-
gether Iceland and India, and while in
the latter man may be vile, according
