STATE HOUSE PERSONALS.

L. A. Rudisill, of Oakland, who was
clerk to the minority Senators during
the session of 1914, has again been APP
pointed to this position by Senator
Speicher, of Garrett county. Mr..
Rudisill is an experienced newspaper
man and performed his duties in a
manner that was eminently satisfactory
to the Republican members of the
Senate two years ago. He arrived on
Monday in Annapolis and entered upon
his duties yesterday morning.
Capt. James A. Hayden, of the
Garrett Delegation, and nestor of the
House, was in his seat during Monday
nights session for the first time since
he met with the accident by falling on
the Icy steps at the State House
grounds on January 10. He has almost
fully recovered from the effects of the
fall. He was warmly welcomed by his
colleagues and associate members, all
of whom expressed their pleasure upon

DR.. Thomas NJ. Hare, Superintendent
of.the Anti Saloon League, will be the
principal speaker. Prof. Arthur F.
Smith, of the Allegany county Delega-
ton, who introduced the Prohibition
Bill in the House, has accepted the in
vitation to introduce the speakers as
they appear before the hearing in their
turn, and he will also give ten minute
talk in behalf of .sthe bill. Senator
Speicher will also make speech on the
floor favoring the passage of the Pro-
hibition measure when it comes from
the Temperance Committee. 1t is said
that the committee will report the bill
without recommendation, thus permit
ting the whole matter to be threshed
out in open session.
At later date the "Wets" will
be given a hearing before the
Temperance Committees in joint
session in the same manner, the date
for which will be announced later. 1t
is assumed that each side will be given
two hearings, in order to reply to each
others arguments after which the com
mittees will report the bill and the real
fight will be on. Senator Speicher will
figure conspicuously in the contest and
will be in the front for the bill through
out.

In studying the characteristics or
man like Allan l.. Benson one
must take into account his whole or
ganization and see from what point
OF view his mind acts. One must
further study the strong and the
weak points OF such a character TO
do justice TO his mentality. One
must realize what influences are at
work that stimulate and draw out
his character.
We therefore find In Mr. Benson
a predominance OF the mental and
motive temperaments. which are
about equally represented. These
give him a thoughtful cast OF mind
as well as a desire 10 be where there
is life. stir and activity. He takes
a practical viewpoint, and is less in
clined 10 theorize about things than
10 get down TO bedrock.
His organization appears to be in
nuenced largely by what We call
practical common sense. not so much
by superior sense. Therefore he will
waste no time on non-essentials and
will get right to the point when dis
cussing a matter.
His forehead gives us the impress.
sion that he has several strong
characteristics:
First, that he inquiries closely into
the why and wherefore OF things,
and through his large causality
(which rounds out the upper part OF
his forehead) is inclined TO study
closely the needs OF his fellow men.
Secondly, he is a keen analyst,
and compares with the eye OF an ex-
pert the quality of ideas as we'll as
the value OF men. He takes long
range OF things. and consequently
comes 10 conclusions after thorough

Thirdly. he has large human ma

STEADY DEMAND.
FOR TRUNK LINES
Jones Real Estate Co.'s Private
Exchange Example of Tele-
phone Development

"One of the surest indications OF
Detroit's rapid growth and prosper
ity is afforded by the great demand
for new telephone trunk lines" ac-
cording TO V. L. Serge, auditor OF
the II. A. Jones Real Estate Coz
"A few years ago when private
branch exchange switchboards came
into general use, great many bust
ness houses in Detroit reserved
groups of numbers In addition to
their advertised telephone number
to take care OF trunk lines to be in
stalled in the future, as the increas-
ing number of calls might demand.
Because CT the rapid growth in their
businesses, these reserved numbers
have been used up by many COM
panies who are now compelled 10 go
to the trouble and expense of chang
ing their telephone numbers in order
to obtain a larger group Of trunk
lines. You may be sure they would
not do this unless the demands were
pressing.

had but one trunk line when the
company was organized a little over
three years ago. Since that time
seven more trunk lines have been
installed and at the present time
five more are on order for imme
date installation. In addition to
that, we are reservlng l. more
trunk lines to take care Of future
growth. | believe Detroit business
houses have put in greater per
centaee of private branch exchange
trunk lines In the last year than

The Cadillac Eight" has supplied the

which constitute the thing called luxury.
1t sets the traveller free from taut nerves,
from tense muscles, and from constant con-

All the glorious Jingle of noiseless
flight through space is there in increased
measure.
But the strain is gone-gone and forgot

uous, so smooth, so flexible and so quiet
that you are scarcely conscious that the
engine exists.
There are no convulsive movements Of
the motor, no noise of straining and labor,
no irritating vibration.
You relax and rest, in the Cadillac, be-
cause the unpleasant reminders of effort
and labor are removed.
You forget the engine, you forget the
mechanical system which Is carrying you
forward. You luxuriate in q sense of
serene well-being and comfort.
Your mind is released from its thraldom
to the car, and turns a thousand times more
often to the beauty of the road, of the sky
and Of the landscape.
The Joy of touring is not only greater
joy in the Cadillac but il calls into being

In The Eight Cylinder Cadillac
Holds New Presentations

Heretofore, no matter how CALAMITY
your car mounted hill, you were conscious
every moment that it was clmbing-that
it was laboring.
Now you know that the hill was high,
only because you saw it before the mount
began--or looked back after the crest was
reached.
You travel almost continuously on high
gear-under throttle control.
The power-application is so fluid that,
when you accelerate the speed, the effect
is very much as though you had turned
on" the power, as you turn on" water by
opening a spigot.
AS for sound and vibration, the engine
scarcely seems to be energizing at all.
The car simply glides from one rate Of
travel to another, without apparent effort
or hesitation.
The mind is lulled into repose and the
body obeys the impulse of the mind
Cadillac thoroughness is responsible for
the accuracy of every function which con-
tributes to the efficiency of the engine.
The known stability of the Cadillac in
spires confidence which removes all
anxiety for your safety.
The pleasures of today are not married
by apprehensions for tomorrow.
And too, the spring suspension, the deep
soft upholstery, the smooth, easy acting
clutch and brakes, the ease of handling and
control, all share in resting and soothing
mind and body.
With bad roads largely robbed of their
terrors, and good roads made almost
doubly delightful-with hills no longer to
be dreaded-wth sense of velvet soft
ness in every motion of the car and every
movement in its operation, there is re-
newed and irresistible call to long distance
touring Wilhelm the Cadillac-becomes
= an unalloyed delight.
