AUTO CLUB HERE
MAY Join A. A. A.
Formation of Such an Organi-
zation in District Is Now
Being Considered.
PLAN BEING F0STERED
BY WILLIAM ULLMAN
Owners in Washington Said Not to
Enjoy Benefits Like
Other Cities.

A District of Columbia automobile
club affiliated with the American Au-
tomobile Association, the signposting
of every road leading into and out Oh
Washington and a good direct highway
between the National Capital and Rich-
mond may be realized if the plans OF
William Ullman mature.
The recent announcement that MT.
Ullman had joined the forces of the
American Motorist, official publication
of the American Automobile Associa-
ton, with headquarters in this city,
gave immediate rise to the prediction
that the near future will see the con-
summation of plans long cherished by
local motorists for a District club
fostered by the A. A. A.
1t is an undeniable fact that District
motorists are sadly in need of an or
ganization which will bring to them
the many benefits enjoyed by the auto
lists of other cities wherein automobile
clubs have been established. And no
one possesses a keener appreciation OF
this fact nor has written more on the
subject than Mr.. Ullman. For this
reason it is believed by those who
know him best that, now that he is
backed by an organization OF the mag
nitude of the American Automobile
Association, he will use his position
to accelerate the movement, always
more or less on foot, to form local
motoring club.
Asked by reporter for The Star
whether he would endeavor to create a
local arm of the motoring organiza-
tion Mr. Ullman said.

j. S. DEALERS SELLING
AUTOS IN ENGLAND
Low-Priced Light Cars Are Being
Purchased Freely From
Americans.

Apprehension of further invasion of
the British automobile market by
American cars and suggestions to meet
this trade movement are constantly
found in the motoring columns of the
English papers. The Daily Telegraph,
for instance, says:
"Since last October an American
motor firm trading in this country has
sold 1000 cars to the British public.
The firm has two models. and the low

AT the present time $1,000 is the

and although at this figure it sells
fairly freely. it does not seem to be
able to keep the United States make
out of the markets. This state of af-
fairs is no doubt due to the fact that
our light car makers turn out so many
different models. The output of Eng
lish firms in a few cases exceeds
1000 cars per annum, but in most a
few hundreds, while the American
makers output is in tens of thousands.
The need for cooperation among
English light car builders appears
therefore. to be desirable If there

May Form Motoring Club.

FRANKLY. yes-if the motorists of
Washington want such an organiza-
ton. and l think they do. At any rate,
/ am going to ask a number of persons
who / know take a deep interest IN
motoring if they would favor and sup
port the formation of a club as Dis
trict branch of the A. A. A.
And / anticipate that the question
will be favorably received for the rea-
son that an organization as q branch
of the American Automobile Associa-
ton would offer to motor tourists bene-
fits and practical help that are not
ethereal. but are tangible. visit to
our offices and inspection of our
equipment would convince the most
skeptical of this.
In the past Washington has had au-
tomohile organizations of various
kinds. None were successful. This was
because none of them afforded the
autoist the things he wanted most
after it was conclusively proven that
the automobile could be depended upon
to take the driver from his home town
to a point many miles distant. The
Washington automobile club of other
days did not provide information as to
how to get to the distant point. 1t
could not direct the motorist, via the
best road. to any point in the United
Sta. es or foreign countries. and give
him the thousand and one pieces of in
formation needed for such a trip as
could club of today affiliated with
the A. A. A.
''In a club such as / have in mind the
member would be one of great army
Of motorists, whose length and breadth

be one of great army of motorist
fighting shoulder to shoulder against
unjust motor laws and for the enact
ment of reasonable legislation for the
people who have made possible a huge
American industry. In our Offices in
the Riggs building is already laid the
foundation for better automobile
club than District motorists have ever
known-one that would have some
practical value.

IF the formation Of local club can
be achieved 1 would suggest as one of
it's first off1cial acts the signposting of
every road leading into and out of
Washington. This is sadly needed and
could be expeditiously and accurately
accomplished by this association. And,
too, / would suggest that the organi-
zation devise means to hasten the COM
pletion of the Washington-Ri Richmond
highway. via Fredericksburg. For this
about $4,000 is needed to complete two
snort stretches IN Prlnce Wlillam
county. If this could be accomplished
1t would give Washington motorists a
good, direct highway to many points of
commercial and historic interest in the
Old Dominion, and would gain for the
club the everlasting gratitude of motor
ing and commercial Washington-the
latter because it would route through
the National Capital the thousands of
motor tourists who now are sent from
New York and New England out of
Philadelphia over the Lancaster pike to

ELECTRIC SPARKS.
Simple Homemade Apparatus by Which
They May Be Produced.

The ordinary person either does not
understand or is afraid of electricity
and could scarcely be persuaded to
manufacture it himself, and yet after
all a little electrical experiment at
home is both amusing and instructive
All that you have to do is to take
glass, expose it to the fire so that it
shall be perfectly dry and place it up
side down upon the table.
Afterward take tray, also perfectly
dry, and place it upon the glass in
such a way that it shall preserve it's
equilibrium. Finally take a sheet of
paper slightly smaller than the tray,
heat it and rub it rapidly with brush,
and it will become quickly electrified.
Then place it upon the tray.
An electrical machine will thus have
been constructed without any expense.
If the finger be brought near the tray
spark will appear. This spark will
be so much the brighter and the series
of sparks will be so much the longer in
proportion as the glass and tray are
drier.
If, when the sparks are being drawn
from the tray, the room in which the
experiment is performed be darkened
these sparks will appear extremely
brilliant.-Pearson's Weekly.

VERMONT SAVINGS BANKS
Their Growth and Safety.


Everybody who uses savings
bank as place where his or her
little savings may be deposited
always has one thought uppermost
in mind, namely: In which of the
many banks will my deposit be
most likely to be absolutely safe?
No one thinks of any Vermont
bank as otherwise than safe, but
somehow or other there are ear
marks tending to show that the
depositing public has a discrimi-
mating mind. The very safest
bank is none too safe for the per-
son who is laying away his hard
earned savings against a rainy
day. He may have hard luck and
need what he has placed in the
bank and so he weighs with the
greatest care all the evidence
tending to aid him in selecting the
safest of the safe banks.
He studies very carefully the
characteristics of the managers of
the different banks and isn't
entirely satisfied unless he can
ascertain positively as to the
success. of those managers in their
own private business affairs.
He wants to know that their
habits are irreproachable; that they
never speculate in their own
business-indeed have none of the
gambling instinct, else they may
possibly be tempted by high rates
of interest to manage the banks
funds rather with reference to
large interest returns than to abb
solute safety of principal.
Now, if the above reasoning is
correct, it is fair to conclude that
a bank which so far stands the
tests of public scrutiny that its
deposits are the largest in the
world in country village must
measure up very high in the
minds of those who save their
earnings and deposit them in
savingssbanks.
Practically every Vermonter not
only knows,Hbut takes justifable
pride in the fact, that Vermont
has thatsbank..and that it is located
in the villagegof Hyde Park.
That the Hyde Park bank
would like to maintain this hon
orable distinction goes without
saying, and that this unique place
which Vermont holds in the bank
ing world may continue, will, we
are certain, be Ithe hope of Yer
monters everywhere.
The managers of the Hyde Park
bank would therefore pleasantly
urge upon Vermonters who are not
partial to any particular bank, that
they give their preference, when
making deposits, to the Hyde
Park bank, which will continue in
future as in the past to conduct its
affairs along those safe lines of
investment which has made the
bank SO successful, so safe and so
popular in the past. The bank
pays four per cent interest and
pays all taxes.
1t is entirely safe to send money.
to this bank by mail either in
personal or bank check, postal or
express money order, or by
registered letter. In its 20 years
of existence not a dollar sent to
this bank has ever been lost.
If any information about the
bank is desired, write the Presi-
dent, Carroll S. Page, or the
Treasurer, F. M. Culver, Hyde
Park, and you will get prompt
answer.-News and Citizen
