THE OLD DREAM.

F. L. Stanton. in Atlanta Constitution
I sat that night in the lonely place
And met the old Dream face to face
The Night without fell dark and deep
And the Wind just wouldn't go TO sieep:
And the Fire was talkin (the way, you
know.
II talks to a Dream OF Long Ago.
A lonely soul, in the lonely place.
/ met the old Dream face to face.
And I said to the Dream: why haunt
the way
Why wing, your flight through storm
and night
10 wreathe the brows OF Winter white
With memories of lost delight?
Why. come from the deep where Life
laid you to sleep,
Since Night Is a sign and Life wakes but
to weep.
And there's never a rose for a love-
dream to reap?"
And the old Dream answered-And smiled
through tears:
II come to comfort the loveless years:
To sing OF the roses that Life once
knew
The flowers she kissed for love Of YOU
For the old and gray have but one
way
The dream of a love that made IAfes
And lives to the light of the Judgment
So said the Dream in the lonely night
And ! dwell with the Dream, and Life
is Light

Of the Pan-American Scientific congress, which
meets on Monday morning. This is really an
august body. but It's present convention is not
able for other things than the influence 1t
may have on the thought OF the world. First of
all, 1t marks another step in the process OF get
ting the peoples OF the Americas together. Just
as they have been approaching a better under
standing as to political and commercial rela-
lions. 30 they are being brought closer on intel
lectual lines. II Is worthy of note, also. that
the Americas can find time to hold convoca-
ton of eminent leaders of thought at this time.
The old world countries. from whose fountains
have proceeded the streams of learning through
all the numbered years, are hammering out
again their problems on the battle field. while
the new world nations vie in friendly competi-

betterment In peaceful pursuits. Maybe when
the end Of the war does really come II will be
found that not alone has the Industrial and
commercial center Of the world shifted. but that
the intellectual control has also passed, and the
Americas will lead the world in thought as
well.

THE MOST LARGELY
 TRAVELLED BIT OF
 ROAD IN COUNTRY
Member of Automobile As sOciatiOn Thinks Stretch Between East Massa-
 chusetts and N. Y.

A member of the American Automobile association whose experiences in touring make him a fair judge of like situations, expresses the view that the 25o miles from the east coast of Massachusetts to New York city is a stretch of road used by more cars from other states than any like distance in the country.
 This opinion was rendered after re- cent two-day leisurely trip over that sec- tion en route from Boston to the na- tional headquarters of the A. A. A. in Washington.
 With a desire to really see the country along the way-not rushing through be- cause of the temptation of the excellent road conditions--he stopped at any place that gave a good view. or that was other wise interesting4 During these stops. also while driving, he made a point of noticing the license plates of the passing cars, but in fairness to the point of view he had in mind, he ignored all states east of the Alleghenies and north Of the Mason and Dixon line. In other words, cars from the New England states and from New York, New Jersey and Penn sylvania were not recorded-and their numbers were many.
 In going over the list, here are the

Hupp Motor Car Company In California Sends Let ter On Conditions
 In West

The west is just beginning to realize that the war has brought great pros perity to America, according to Lee An derson, sales and advertising manager of the Hupp Motor Car company, who is completing business trip of the north west, west and southwest. Writing from El Paso, Tex, MT. Anderson says:
 'The west has little conception of what the war has meant to the east. Of course, all coast papers carry an abund- ance of war news, but 1t is only since the war orders for cattle, horses, mules and grain have hit the territory that they have come to know how the war has influenced business. I have talked with many western business men who were very curious regarding the activity in war stocks They could not see just why there should be so much activity or why the war should aid business gen. orally.
 The exposition, of course, has brought a lot of money into San Francisco a1- though Calfornians do not feel that it has benefited the whole state.
 Development is a kenynote of the west right now and the country is growing tremendously and real estate values are very high. Business generally in Los Angeles and southern California is very good.
 "Other states could certainly learn a lot of lessons from California in the way of good roads. The roads of California are already wonderful, but the state is improving them constantly. In Los An gees county alone there are over 800 miles of perfect boulevards. Automobile club of southern California has done wonderful work in signing the roads. They have gone east as far as the Mis- sissippf with a complete trunk line sys- tenn of the best road signs I have ever seen.
 San Francisco claims the honor of having originated the safety zone, al- though all along the Pacific coast one hears people commenting on Detroit's fine system of handling traffic. It is generally felt in the west that Detroit leads the country in traffic regulations.
 The southwest is exceptionally pros- porous at this time and the big ranches are being divided into smaller farms Irrigation is making Fl Paso a wonderful business center. Territory covering hun dreds of square miles in New Mexico is being taken over by small farmers and Fl Paso as a center of trade reaps the benefit.
 "rhe whole west s suffering from the shortage of automobiles, which has great ly delayed the shipments of all leading companies. The demand for cars is way ahead of expectation, which is distressing dealers in standard lines
 "In the west and southwest the four has the call. The auto owner demands ample power on account of heavy grades, but they are still strong for good 'fours The Model .N' Hupmobile is constantly showing up the more complex types in hill work and everywhere I heard of the wonderful feats of the Hupmobile."

the total number of cars registered by It's third closest rival during the entire nve months. The single months figures also came within 31 cars of equaling the entire five months showing made by the Overland's second nearest rival. A preponderance of Overland sales is shown not only in Iowa, but in other states as we'll At home they are cer- tainly not withotu honor. for in Lucas county, Ohio, practically one-fifth, or, to be exact, IS per cent of the entire number of cars registered are Overlands This includes cars of all description, whether high or low in price.
 From January l, to September, 1914 the total number of cars registered in Lucas county amounted to 5264. Of this number. 786 were Overlands. These fig ures show that 30 per cent of the total increase in cars registered in the county since January 1, have been Overlands.
 Tn every section of the country the number of Overland cars registered shows a marked increase this season. This is evidenced by the fact that the big To- ledo factory has more than trebled it's output since the first of the year, in an enort to supply the demand created for It's product.
