A TRIP TO THE
OVERLAND PLANT
BY Geo. E. Cain, Proprietor Of The Bel
ington Garage

ded the Big Convention of the
WHY'S Overland Company at To-
ledo, a few days ago, has the fol-
lowing to say concerning the trip:
high water mark of WHY'S
Overland enterprise was reached
in the present convention, the
biggest project of the kind ever
attempted. Toledo was fairly alive
with WHY'S Overland dealers and
automobile editors.
Every official of the company
from Mr.. WHY'S down was con-
Lcentrating every effort to make
theaffair the greatest ever staged
by any single corporation in the
world and his efforts have not
been without avail. No corporal
ion eyer conceiveda plan SO am
bilious,
mo one else ever had the nerve
tolcontemplate bringing 5000 men
from all parts of the United States
and for three weeks to confine
their residence, instruction and
entertainment exclusively to the
plant of the company-host.
Men of all walks of life from
business and professional man to
the farmer and coal miner and the
laborer. all are boosters of the
WHY'S Six and Overland models
were on hand. Hundreds of news
paper men from all parts of the
country were also gathered toget-
her and were working hand in
hand to assist the autoist in max
lug the affair the grandest ever
held in the country.
ENTERTAINMENT FEATURE.
1.-The famous Overland band,
one of the finest in the country,
was on hand to furnish the heavy
music for the occasion, while the
Glee Club and University Club of
the company are to be compl-
mented for the part they took in
making the affair such grand
success.
Motion pictures were also in
U .oduced to strongly carry the
message to the members attend
ing the convention and there was
just enough comedy and mirth in
troduced into the reels shown to
keep all interested at all times.
III. Hover introduced the mo-
ton pictures and they were ex-
planned by famous Knight lecture
plan.
EVERYONE WAS THERE
Providing foodf or the guests is
not the least of the tasks that
confronted the Overland organic
alton, The a~-ple facilities OF
the new office dining-room had
been extended in order to care
for the burden that was put on
them. There was abundance for
everyone.
in addition to the regular
daily meals there was also the
special evening features such as
a beefsteak dinner, done in the
Overland regulation fashion, with
caps and aprons for makeup,
and a more formal course BAN
duet. The beefsteak dinner bat
tered down formality and pro-
moted the kind genuine get-to-
geather spirit desired.
1.-THE guides at the factory
VINO escorts the visitors through
had been especially picked.
They are experts and known all
the mechanical details. They ex-
planned the wonderful things a
WHY'S Overland dealer should
know about the method of pro-
duction and manufacture. Many
of the dealers had never made
! round of the plant, others had
never inspected the plant in its
extended form.

Gypsles Fight Case.
During her stay with the Marine
band Evelyn was beaten severely, and
to her pleadings for freedom she was
told that as soon as she earned the
$4,000 which they claimed to have
paid for her she would be allowed to
have an automobile and to 90 where
she pleased.
During the trial OF the case, which
was bitterly fought, the gypsies
claimed that Evelyn was not OF sound
mind. Mental experts came from the
University Of California and made
tests, showing that she graded 100
per cent in intelligence and sanity.
This disposed of the subterfuge OF the
gypsies.
Mrs. Hickman says the girl returned
to the band the jewelry which she
wore at the time of her escape, ex.
cept string of pearls given to her in
Honolulu by member of the Amcri
can colony. She was dressed In
American clothing for the first time in
years discarding the picturesque cos
