MOTORING MAKES HIT
WITH Chinese WOMEN
Wealthy Oriental Widow Buys One
Studebaker and Immediately
Orders Five Others.
NOW THEY ARE ALL RIDING

The rapidity with which China is rapid.
ly receding from its century-old habits
and taking on modern clothes. has been
often pronounced one 4 the twentieth
century marvels. In no way has this
progress been proved more forcibly than
in the part Chinese women are taking

section of humanity. to be kept In sub
lection and to appear in public only when
carefully hidden from the profane gaze
OF the populace.
where a wealthy Chinese mother pur-
chased six Studebaker cars. is the latest
and most striking evidence offered Of
the emancipation Of Chinese women.
Last winter the widow Of Soong King
Dong. who, previous to his death, was
compradore Of the Russo-Chinese Bank,
at Shanghai and one OF the city's
wealthiest citizens. decided that, with her
family. she would enjoy some of the
pleasures pursued by her American sis
ters. So she purchased a Studebaker
six" from Hubert S. Honigsberg. who
represents the Studebaker corporation in
Shanghai. Mrs. Soong Immediately took
her entire family-which is of character
istic Chinese proportions-out for a spin.
Ono and all. they were completely cap
tivated with the charms of motoring.
1t happens that the four Soong sons
and one daughter are each married and
have a house full of little ones who are
just as modern in their desires as the
older folk.
Each son and the daughter managed to
impress upon their good mothers in
tellect the Importance Of giving the
younger generation an equal opportunity
with their elders. The entire clan had
become welded to the Studebaker chop. I"
SO, without much ceremony, Mrs. Soong
summoned Honigsberg and handed him
an order for five more Studebaker cars
Honigsberg lost no time in cabling De-
troit a rush order. When these cars.
along with seven other Studebakers,
landed at Shanghai late in April on the
S. 8. Empress of Asia a great throng
Of interested friends were on the bund
to witness the unusual sight. The cars
were landed and driven at once, filed
with members of the Soong family, to
the grounds of Fuh Tan University. one
Of Shanghai's beauty spots, and a pam
oramic camera was brought into play.
This remarkable transaction was ham
died throughout by H. s. Honigsbers, an
enterprising Yankee salesman, and 1t is
believed to be without a parallel in the
history of the industry.

PREMIER SOLVES BIG
PROBLEM AT SPEEDWAY
Transportation Difficulties at Indian
apolis Met with Unusual Sue
cess by Company.

The good weather preceding the 500
mile race brought such a crowd Of Pre-
mier dealers and owners over the roads
to Indianapolis for the big race that the
Premier Speedway transfer department,
organized by the factory to take care Of
its guests, was absolutely swamped. and
the dealers and many individual owners
went out to the track driving 1915 test
cars, led by Chief Engineer George A.
weidely and the "chuck wagon" filled
with the necessary first aid supplies.
Everybody was turned loose with no 9TH
er tie than a provision that the cars be
returned to the factory Monday morning.
Personal demonstrations Of the per-
formance Of the cars in dense traffic and
in competitive speed dashes about the
Indianapolis suburbs was certainly pro-
vided, and If the expressions Of satisfac-
ton by the extempore speeders is any
indication, the 1915 model has certainly
made good.
There were no smashes, though several
drivers fit to compete with the best on
the Speedway were suddenly developed
and the whole crowd turned up with their
charges in good shape Monday morning.

DEER HUNTERS USING
AUTOS IN EVERGLADES
Snyder Brothers Equip Machine in
Florida and Meet with Great

Deer-hunting in Florida is not a new
sport by any means. but the methods
recently employed by Wahl J. and John
n. Snyder. Of Beaver. Pa, proved de-
cided innovation to the natives Of the
Everglades districts. Instead of using
ponies as, means Of locomotion in the
pursuit of the elusive buck, the Snyder
brothers, who are Overland dealers in
their home town. utilized a 1913 model
Overland, threading the family marked
trails Of the Southern jungle with gaso-
line instead of horse-fiesh as motive
power.
Though the car had been run more than
. 900 miles since it left the factory and
the Florida natives scoffed at the idea
of its being able to get within shoot
ing distance Of deer. the new method
of hunting was highly successful and
the members Of the Snyder party brought
back to camp all the deer the game laws
of the State allowed them.

RED CROSS SERVICE
USES SIX HUPMOBILES
Cars Prove Usefulness in Army Ma.
neuvers and Are Sent to
Mexican Border.

Enough chatter has been written about
the motor car in the military service to
fill several volumes.
Motor trucks and pleasure cars have
been tried out by the armies of Eng
land. Germany. France and Italy, as
well as the United States. The rival
forces in Mexico have been reported oper-
ating enough machines for every bugler,
marksman and general on both sides to
own private car, but the one place
where the automobile has the best chance
to show has been overlooked
Carrying the Red Cross nag of the
hospital corps, a field ambulance Is COM
paratively safe in modern warfare. Civil
lied forces all recognize the insignia Of
the hospital service, and with the Red
Cross in view an automobile would be
allowed to cover the field unmolested
picking up the wounded and rushing
them to the field hospital which is at
tached to each brigade.
Recently a Los Angeles regiment Of
the National Guard. during army ma
neuvers. used a fleet Of six Hupmobiles.
These cars were used by the hospital
corps. and in the report of the days
practice the commanding officer speaks
highly of the efficiency of motor cars for
such purposes.
In the first place it was found that
the wounded could be removed from the
field Of battle in one-fifth the time It
took in the old way by having the Red
Cross men walk through the fields. Again,
the wounded were rushed to the hos
pital with more speed. and. as q con-
sequence, quicker medical attention could
be given them, which would probably
mean a saving Of many lives in actual
battle.
Then. too, the automobiles reou;r. .
great deal less attention than the hos
pital wagons and q string Of horses and
mules. There is no possibility of a stam-
pede from fright, and the machines were
always under perfect control
The success Of the Hupmobiles was
so great in these recent maneuvers that
when the Los Angeles battalion was sent
to the Mexican border the cars accom-
panied them.

CONFIDENCE IS FIRST
ESSENTIAL In DRIVING
Guy Vaughan. Former Racing Cham
pion. Tells How to Be-
come Expert.

Confidence. self-control and Judgment
are required Of every good driver of an
automobile.
But do not let the absence of either of
those three qualifications keep you from
buying a car, for Guy Vaughan, for
mer racing champion. says it is easy to
acquire either or all three Of those
merits.
Vaughan. who for several years has
been Stearns man and In now chief Of
the experimental department. OCCASION
ally slips back into the limelight long
enough to dispense some good advice.
DO not try to learn everything in a
half hour" Vaughan warns. First take
a firm, but not tight, hold Of the steer
ing wheel and turn it slightly from one
side TO the other.
Just a little care exercised at first will
gradually develop into the exercise of
good Judgment. But first il is necessary
to gain confidence iris the machine and
yourself; then to master self-control and
control of your car.
You will surprise yourself with the
ease you learn to operate a car II you
cultivate those three virtues" Vaughan
promises.

NEW USE FOR MOTOR CARS.

The adaptability of the automobile To
odd and varied uses Is being illustrated
every day. The electric equipment on
the car has also been adapted 20 strange
circumstances. even to assisting surgeon
in performing an operation in a coun-
try house where the only light available
was a kerosene lamp.
Now comes w. H. Van Wrinkle, presi-
dent of the Water Works Equipment
Company. Of New York, with something
new. Mr.. Van Wrinkle has invented a
simple device which he adjusts to his
1872 Cadillac roadster, and by this means
opens and closes water valves of a city
water system. The combination does Ia
one minute and half what usually re-
quires four men a half hour to do in
all cities. The device is attached to a
rear wheel which has been lacked up.
The motor is then started. The appliance
is adjustable and will fit any size auto
wheel.

MORE TAG TROUBLE.
Society of Automobile Engineers
VIII Recommend Uniform Style.

viii Recommend Uniform Style.
Owing to the variety of shapes and
sizes of license tags prescribed by the
laws of the various States, as well as
conflicts as to the manner in which tags
shall be displayed, automobile manufac-
turers thus far have been unable to ar
rive at an entirely satisfactory method
of mounting the tag. while purchasers of
new cars often find 1t difficult to label
them in a perfectly lawful manner.
In many cases the result is that the
tags are applied in such a way that the
numbers are partially obscured from GER
tain points of view. while in others sew
eral adjustments have to be made be-
fore the requirements of the police are
entirely satisfied. With a view to obvi-
ating these difficulties the Society of
Automobile Engineers at its summe'
meeting at Cape May, June 1871. will con-
slider the advisability Of recommending
UNIFORM style of tag, which could be
mounted in a uniform manner, and
which would not only satisfy every rea-
sonable demand, hut also be a source of
no trouble to the owner.

This tree was brought to America from

small animals and birds with a deadly
fatality. and in some cases affiicts hu-
man beings with a heavy drowsiness.
The tree blooms about once in every

bear a beautiful rainbow-hued flower
which gives forth a deadly perfume. The

CARTERCAR IS EASY
FOR WOMEN To DRIVE
Cearless Transmission Eliminates the
Clutch and Gears and Saves
Trouble.
OPERATION LEARNED QUICKLY

The bugbear of driving a motor car
as far as women are concerned is the
shifting of gears, according to Harry r.
Radford. vice president and general man.
aver of the Cartercar Company, of Pom
tiac, Mich, who AYERS that II it were
not for this unpleasant and annoying fea-
ture of many of the cars there would
be a great many more women drivers.
THE gearless transmission of the Car
tercar eliminates the clutch and gears
and for that reason We feel perfectly
safe in saying that the Cartercar is es-
sentialIy a woman's car" says Mr.. Rad
ford.
TT is operated as easily as an electric
vehicle, yet 1t has the range Of any
gasoline car. Any woman or child can
operate a Cartercar in a few minutes
after they have sat under the steering
wheel.
Mrs. James ]. Starrow, the wife of
the well-known fnancier OF Boston. is
the owner of two Cartercars as well as
several other types of automobiles that
require gear shifting. She finds the Car
tercar ideal for her use and gets the
ease Of operation and range that she
would not get with an electric vehicle.
Although she has five automobiles she
may be seen almost any day driving
along the roads around Lincoln and Bos-
ton in fair weather or bad weather in
her Cartercar coupe. for she likes that
best of all.
Mrs. Ernest Albaugh, wife of a we'll
known jeweler at Hillsdale, Mich, is an
other Cartercar enthusiast Mrs. Albaugh
has driven several makes Of cars, but
her choice is the gearless transmission
car, and she is driving her third one
at present. She has driven from De-
troit to Hillsdale a number of times,
once making the trip all alone. in the
spring of the year when the roads were
in frightful condition.
Thus while the Cartercar may be call
ed the woman's car yet it is strong and
powerful and as a hill climber it has no
superior"
