CLEAN HANDS.

Health depends upon cleanliness as
much as any other condition. The
hands serve almost constantly during
tbe hours we are awake. It is a fact
that what enters by the mouth often
defles the whole body. The hands
convey to the mouth nourishment
which it is possible to contaminate in
transit. When we take into considera.
ton the multiple uses of the hands, il
is easy to understand the Importance
of clean hands. 1t pays to give this
matter serious thought for life and
death often depend upon this matter
of clean hands.
Germs are very small organisms, too
small to be seen with the naked eye,
but millions of our own contemporaries
have seen them by the use of the
higher powers of the microscope. 1t
is not a matter of doubt by persons
who have done a reasonable amount of
reading but we must admit that there
are persons who are not so well in
formed. Those who have seen the
micro-organisms under the higher
powers of the microscope have doubt
less been convinced of the efficacy of
germ possibilities. They will be more

This Year.
INDIANA RANKS SECOND

First Display of New Models at

BY HOWARD 8. FISK.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. September -
With Indiana ranking second In tho
production of automobiles in tho
United States this city Is doing It's
share in unfolding the record which 1t
has already established In the motor
car world.
Michigan has the largest proportion Of
factories manufacturing pleasure cars
Ohio and Indiana have the same number
of factories. but Ohio produces moro cars
annually.
The situation in the various automo-
bile plants in Detroit and in this city
gives every indication that the present
year will break all records from the
standpoint of production. The figures
for the year ending December 81 will
be near the 100000 mark If the pro-
duction continues at the present rate.
There are plenty of orders in hand
and there seems to be no let-up. A
number of the larger factories arc far
behind in orders and are working
Itwenty-four hours a day endeavoring
to catch up.

Wallace G. Hood. for many years a

as the Wallace c. Hood service bureau
After his years of experience in the in

100000 Cars Is Output.

For the first six months of the pres
ent year over 100000 passenger auto
mobiles have been completed in Ameri-
can factories, and every day sees an
increase in the rate Of production.
In order to take advantage of the
avalanche of orders that are coming
into the various factories speed-up ma
chinery is being installed. According
to reports there had been completed
and sold between July l. 1915. and July
1, 1916, about 100000 pleasure cars,
thus shattering all previous records in
this respect. And this production in
the face of shortage of material and
freight cars as well.
The annual state fair which is now
in progress is drawing crowds from
every section of the country to witness
the first display of the new models. All
of the latest creations are being shown
and the roads from Detroit to this city
were lined with cars last week being
brought from the factories in that vi
cinity to be placed on display. While
the majority of the cars on exhibition
were standard stock cars, there were
also number of SHOW Jobs" which,
as usual, attracted widespread atten-
ton.

More Plants and Prospecting.

There has been a noticeable improve
ment in the automobile industry dur
ing the past year. A number Of new
plants have been erected and every
thing seems to be in fourishing flnan-
cial condition. The new additions to
the plant OF the National Vehicle Com
pany, including the construction OF new
executive offices, which were completed
year ago, have been outgrown, and
further buildings are necessary for the
production of National cars
For the year ending July 1. officials
say, the National car sales had In
creased more then 900 per cent. On Oc-
tober l work will be started on a new
manufacturing plant, which is sched-
uled to be completed by spring
A new motor car concern that has
just made its debut in the local field
is known as the Premier Motor Cor
poration. The company owns a tract
comprising forty acres, on which
stands the factory, with 100000 feet of
floor space. 1t is being called Little
Detroit" This concern expects to pro-
duce 1000 cars to January l. Next
year 10000 cars will be constructed, ac-
cording to plans.

Millions to Be Spent
on New Haynes Plant;
Apperson Output Grows

KOKoMO. Ind. September 9-This
place is the home of Ellwood Haynes. to
whom the automobile industry owes
much. He Is the Oldest automobile
manufacturer In the United States, and
while he is but fifty-six years old he
Is still an active man. He has de-
voted a great many years to the study
and development Of the automobile, and
the first car he ever built Is now on
display in the National Museum at
Washington. 1t was about twenty six
years ago when he built this car, ana
the vast strides which have been made
in gasoline cars since that time are of
more than passing interest.
Mr.. Haynes was the first manufac-
turer to introduce aluminium in the
construction of the automobile engine.

Three Million Autos In Use.

According to Automobile, there are
50S,677 more cars in use today in the
United States than there were January
4. 1916. There are over 100000 auto
mobiles in use in the United States to-
day, including both passenger cars and
trucks Between January l and June
so the increase which had taken place
was not far short of the total increase
for the whole year OF 1918. There are
now three states having over 100000
cars apiece-New York. Ohio and Hi
nois-whereas on January / of this
year only New York had as many as
this.
Eleven states have over 100000 ma
chimes each, Minnesota, Massa chusetts,
Indiana and Texas having passed into
this class since January l.
In thinking of these big figures it
must not be forgotten that the industry
has been producing a good many more
cars than those absorbed in the United
States. Since January l the exports
have totaled 1926.

each thirteen people. California one to
each fifteen people and Nebraska one
to each sixteen. while New York has
as many as thirty mine Inhabitants to
every car.
A striking feature brought out by a
comparison of the registration sta
tistics of July and those recorded at
the first of the year is the constant
increase which indicates the stability
and normal progress of the automobile
industry. The average increase in
registration in the United States for
the entire year Of 1915 was 1916 per
cent; for six months of 1916 the aver
age is u per cent, or approximately
40 per cent on yearly basis, since the
registration tapers off to some extent
during the last six months of the year

RECORD Of TWO YEARS
IN REAL AUTO TOURING
David Joyce Of American Association
Says Trips Have Been
Transcontinental.

According to Chairman David joyce of
the American Automobile Association
touring board the last two years have
witnessed the commencement of real au-
tomobile touring in this country While
1t is not commended that motorists before
that period had not moved about, the
point Is that after all, with here and
there an exception, the average owner
really only made trips Of limited mileages
and territory compared with the tours
made in 1915 and 1915.
No Longer an Exception.
Previous to last year a transconti-
nentalist was looked upon by friends as
either foolhardy or exceptionally rash,"
says Chairman Joyce, but 1915 saw more
mobiles than had toured stretch of three
or four states less than five years ago
Ihere were many who freely predicted
the expostions on the Pacific coast were
the be-all and end-all of that class of
touring, and that this year would see only
all occasional straggler. Yet all reports
made to the American Automobile Asso-
citation, the national clearing house Of
touring information. from the various
across he-country route centers, show
been an increase over each of the half
dozen routes extending from ocean to
ocean.
Between North and South.
There is also a like condition of travel
flow between the north and the south,
that saw its real beginning In noticeable
numbers last fall Previous to that time
there was a venturesome one now and
then who braved the reported road hor-
rors. only to find the trip free from hard
ships, although presenting some discom-
forts. But road improvements in the
south were so many in 1915 that the
American Automobile Association tour
ing bureau, both in New York city and
at the national headquarters in Wash
ington, handled more cars last fall and
this spring than any previous years com
bined This year has seen many miles
OF improved road added to the route. with
the result that, early as it is, the inquiries
for route information and maps to Flori-
da and the gulf coast points indicate
that the entire motoring north is pre-
pairing to migrate south for the winter"
