LYCEUM LEAGUE TO HAVE
COURSE NEXT YEAR

At an executive meeting of the Be
lington Lyceum League held one
evening last week it was decided to
accept the pledges of about $175.OO
already secured toward next seasons
course and contract for the coming
year. While the pledges did not meet
expectations it is believed that the
rest of the Belington people who have
not yet pledged and who have any
educational inclinations will come for
ward to the aid of the members Of
the Belington Lyceum League who
again will assume the responsibility
for entertainments during the fall
and winter months Of next season.
The Lyceum courses for the past
few years have done much for the
educational and social side of Being
ton. To drop these for the future
would be a backward step. Are you
helping to make backward step
possible

One Dealer Sells 52
Paige Skies in a Week

Several of the Paige dealers
throughout the country are signaliz-
ing the success the new Paige Six
has won by a celebration they CO II
The Paige Jubilee Month" These
celebrations take on the character of
an open house" reception held every
day and evening, with special decora-
uons and other fiXings, special exhi-
bitions of the Paige line and other
features. and are much like an auto
mobile show in miniature. The in
terest and enthusiasm aroused has
been great and the result in actual
business done has been remarkable
Chicago, for example, is now in
the midst of its Paige Jubilee and
has stirred up considerable excite
ment along automobile row, where
the Paige has been very much in e<f-
dence. Just what these jubilee cele-
brations mean is fairly well indi-
Gated by the fact that during the first
week at Chicago fifty-two Paige Skies
were sold at retail. These sales were
made from a special allotment of $50
cars from the factory, as the Chicago
dealer had already disposed of more
than 200 Skies since January l.
The fast selling of the Paige Six
and the increased demand aroused
by the jubilee celebrations explain
why the Paige factory has been rum
ming and will continue to run night
and day in order to meet a demand
for cars which is taxing their large
resources to the limit
