SALES OF MOTOR TRUCKS

E. who Is enjoying prosperity nowadays;
 merchants, manufacturers and other business men are getting their share judging from the truck sales during the past two months.
 When people start buying motor trucks 1t is pretty good sign that the times are prosperous. A dealer or manufacturers who buys a motor truck is putting the money back into his busineas-it isn't luxury as is pleasure car. Travel the country over and you will not find any clear-head- ed man who will put money into his business if he has any doubt as to whether he will get it out.
 One of the interesting facts right here is the motor1zing of the paint ing and decorating, trade Contrac- tors have found that with motor 1 trucks they can move their men, lad ders and paraphernaIia all at once and from one end of a, great city to another with the loss of a half-hour or an hour at the most. With the old way Of horse transfer nothing but the equipment could be carried, the workers had to go by a street car and a. loss Of a halliday and often a day
 resulted.
 One of the most notable instancessof of the motorizing Of a business, however, is that of the packing houses. One Of the large concerns now is operating 9 fleet of over 30, having purchased a. 1 number for its branches as we'll as it's main plant.
 MOTOR Vs. HORSE IN WARFARE 1 Warfare to-day is business--a dreadful business, to be sure-and on l ly the most modern instrum entalities l which peaceful pursuits have created can be used in war. Cumbersome, and terribly slow, n1uscle-pulled | equipment if it were the only depen- t Idence in the present war, would un- duly pro1ong and multiply by millions or billions the egregfous expense of Ethe great struggle. Horses in plenty l are being lased-not enough 1notoriz- ed equipment for the vast conflict is available--but thousands upon thou
 sands Of motor vehicles are saving the I expense, inertias complieati ons and Icongestfon of the tremendous tonnage l of horse food-one-ha1f of the pos ! sibIe transport Ioads-to say nothing
 of the thousands of non-hghting men i who would have to be maintained es Icaretakers of the horses. The liquid l fuel which the motor equipment uses benzol and aIcohol-are I plentiful and any sort of motor car can carry enough for 100 to 2OO- mile run And, vastly important for the health of troops, motors create no unsanitary condition to hasten fever and germ diseases which are a con- 1 conaitant of animals. Their sanitary superiority cannot be measured in dol
 lars and cents--only in valuable lives; for one of the first principles of effi-
 cient war is that men are no longer mere ttfood for cannon but a vaIu-
 able asset whose health at all times l must be conserved The motor is a 1 valuable adjunct as a conservator of the army's health. And under fire it does not stampede like the horse and
 impair the morale and efficiency of ar
 til1ery corps-Rollin w. Hutchinson Jr.. in The Engineering Magazine for l November.

GATHERING OF CAR BUILDERS

GATHERING OF CAR BUILDERS
 s.Tha largest gathering of motor car builders in the history of the industry was present at the semi annual meet ing of the National Automobile Cham Der of Commerce in New York City on october 2, when drawings were held for space at the New York and Chi cago Automobile Shows states Geo. H. Peck, of the Peck & Lines Co.,, dis tributors in this territory, for the Haynes, in 8 recent interview.
 ..The Haynes company drew space B-22 which covers SIS square feet, for their exhibit at the New York Show which will again take place at the Grand Central Palace, week Of January to 8; and for the Chicago Show, which will be held as usual at the Coliseum, the, company drew space H. l., which covers 924 square feet.
 Last January at the Chicago show the Haynes company sold more cars than at all the previous shows held in the Windy City combined; but with the popularity of the Haynes ''Light Six it is predicted that all Haynes records for cars sold at similar events will be shattered. It is stated that there will be approximately 55e exhtb- itors at the New York and Chicago events of this number, 101 will ex- hibit passenger cars, while the bal ance will exhibit accessories and pro- ducts of allied trades that enter into the making of the modern cotor cars.
 There was much qualification among the makers over the eHinently fair acti on of the Senate Committee at Washington in recognizing the i'm portance of the industry as evidenced by their decision not to place a tax on the motor cars, which are already so heavily taxed throughout the country, including registration fees, taxes to operate vehicles; personal property tax; wheel tax; road improvement tax. and in the case of North Caro- ina. $500 license fee to sell cars in the State.
 ..The drawing showed that the past year has seen little or no increase in the number of manufacturers, the cars represented at the drawing being old timers in the field.

WHAT BECOMES A WOMEN MOST.

In the year 1880, a large Catholic
Congress was held at Aix-la-C hapelle.
The leading spirit of the Congress
was the celebrated leader of the
Centre Party, Windhorst. Many noble
ladies, who attended the Convention,
begged Windhorst for his photograph;
they said that they would deem
themselves fortunate, highly honored,
if he would accept their own in re-
turn, and further declared that they
would have it taken in any setting
that he might prefer.
In public speech, the great leader
said: ''It will be a pleasure to me
to accept the photographs of these
ladies, and give mine in return.
Since they desire to know what
consider the most becoming way in
which these pictures should be taken,
would say: Let those ladies, who
are mothers, have themselves photo
graphed, catechism in hand, teaching
their children the truths of their holy
religion. Those who have not yet en-
tered the married state, l should like
to see photographed with the beads in
their hand, to show that they wish to
lead truly Catholic life"

UNDERSTAND THE PRINCIPLE.

There is only one way to secure
the correct answer to a mathematical
problem: and that is to work in har-
mony with mathematical laws. It
would not matter if half the world
believed there was some other way
to get the answer, it would never
come until the law was followed with
the utmost exactitude.
1t does not matter that the great
majority of the human race believe
there is some other way of reaching
the happiness goal. The fact that
they are discontinued, restless and
unhappy, shows that they are not
working their problems scientifically.
We are all conscious that there is
another man inside of us, that there
accompanies us through life divine,
silent messenger, that other, higher,
better self, which speaks from the
depths of our nature and which gives
it's consent, its "Amen" to every
right action, and condemns every
wrong one.
Men in all times have tried to bride
this constant monitor, to purchase
its approval, to silence it in nervous

THE CHILDREN'S MASS.

In the crisp cold air of the winter
morn,
The hurrying feet of the children
pass,
And the frost's keen breath they
smilingly scorn,
In their bounding faith as they
crowd to Mass.
All! that pealing bell from the
steeple's height,
AS l see the children thronging by,
Strikes memory's ear like dirge,
for the fight
Of departed years since child was
And wide as the gulf between earth
and heaven,
That with timorous eyes my soul
surveys,
Have the tempests of life forever
driven
Me far from the moorings of child
hoods days.
In proud cathedral, with censers
swinging,
I've stood enraptured my heart
af1ame
The swelling organ, the voices sing
ing,
Harmonious homage to His Great
Name"
But even a song of faith abiding,
In cathedral choir can uplifted be,
AS the "Our Father" of a child con-
fiding,
In faltering words at his mothers
knee.
Tho oft has art to my soul appealed
With the painted canvas of Mary's
face,
And in reverent silence low l kneeled,
To the painters dream of her
wondrous grace,
Oh! never so sweet and pure a
thought,
Of her virgin grace was in earthly
shrine
AS the first Hail Mary my lips
were taught,
And her answering smile to that
prayer of mine.
The preacher, with words of soaring
wings,
Hath wakened my slumbering soul
to fight
From letters of sin that ever cling
To life's endeavor toward Heavens
true light;
But never has preacher in vision trod

With such steadfast gaze to the
throne of grace,
AS l, when a child, said, II believe
in Cod
For on tiptoe then | could see His
face!
I.nrdi LET no anger for sloth and sin.
Fall on my soul that shrinks win
fear,
But when the time draws nigh to be-
gin
That life eternal / sigh for here,
Look Thou with merc1ful eyes on me,
Unheeding the day when sin beguiled,
And judge me as, when at my
mothers knee,
l learned my prayers-a little child.

THE ONLY WAY.

M. BanEie, of the French Academy,
relates that calling one day on the
famous or rather infamous, Diderot,
he found him teaching the catechism
to his little daughter Having dis
missed the child, Diderot laughed at
Mr.. Banzie's surprise. After all"
he said, what better foundation can
there be for her education to make
her what she should be, good
daughter and, later on, worthy wife
and mother? Is there any morality
to compare with the morality incul-
Gated by religion, any that rests on
such powerful motives?"
Like lola, Diderot was willing to
poison those of other households with
his vile COMBINATIONS of the Church,
yet preferred to instil the principles
of religion and morality into the
hearts of his own offspring. And as
he himself says, how better attain
this end thaA by intoxicating the pure
doctrines of Catholicity?
