"ROM Mobile to Birmingham in an automobile driven by 15-year- \ old boy, over sandy roads, through valleys and over mountains and the en- tire trip of 2S6 miles at an average speed of 1884 miles an hour. is the expert ence of N c. Walpole and his family. The trip, occupying r hours and 4C minutes, was made June 5.
 Carroll Walpole, not yet 16 years of age, was apparently the least fatigued member of the party as he climDed out from behind the steering whee! of his Overland Model 71 in front of his fath- CTS home.
 Asked if the going had been pretty rough, Carroll replied, Not bit rough in that car; all the way over it was just like sitting in a Pullman, hey dad?"
 Leaving the Mobile and Ohio station and on up to Satsuma the clay and gravel pike is in elegant condition, , explained MT. Walpole. senior. From Satsuma to LeRoy it is gradei sandy road through low and sandy country.
 From LeRoy to the ferry at Jack son, a distance of about five miles, is
 
 miles of this leg is over river bottom road, not graded, but easy to get through.
 The new Jackson highway pike is excellent from Thomasville to Pine Hiu. This road is being graded on through, but now is under construction, whic.t necessitates a detour through Wilcox county after you leave the pike and until you get to Catherine. Cur advice to motorists is that they do not go through Arlington or Lamson, but go around these towns. After leaving Pire Hill continue on the main highway a mile beyond the bridge, take the first road to the right; follow this road for one mile, and take cad at the right of the sign which reads: Five miles to Pine Hill.'
 From Catherine to Gastonburg is fine graded road; continue straight on to Alberta; from Alberta turn left and take sandy road IA miles to Central Mills At Central Mills you strike the main Jackson highway, winch is being graded and is passab1e to Stafford.
 From Stafford to Selma is a county pike, graded, and in excellent condi- tion. From Selma, taking the range line, is a fine Dallas county Eike to Ridersville; from Ridersvi1le to Ma . pleville is sandy county road, rough in spots and some heavy going sand From there to Clanton is a new graded

Hats Off to Hudson
 Says A. A. A. President

John A. Wilson, former president of the American Automobile association, has written President Chapin of the Hudson on the performance of the Super-Six, , said Bradley J. Saunders, Hudson dis tributor for the Birmingham district, yes- terday.
 "In his letter the former head of the American Automobile association said I want to congratulate you and your com pany on the performance of the Super SIX at New York. When I was on the con- test board of the American Automobile association, at one of our Chicago meet ings, the question of mile-a- minute car came up, and when I made the statement
 that I did not believe any 5O-horse power
 car then built as a touring car would
 carry four people a mile in 60 seconds,
 I got the laugh. Chairman Butler spoke
 up and said, Why don't you offer a cup?'
 told him he could put the offer in any,
 one of his programme he desired and
 make the price of the cup anything he wanted, because knew I would not have
 to buy It Stipulations were made that the four-cylinder car was to have cylin- ders no larger than five and one-half, to carry four people, including driver each
 one to weigh at least 160 pounds, top on
 but down, no windshield, carrying no extras. Only one person qualiied-Barney
 Oldfield who drove a Knox car of the required specifications and made one way
 of the track a mile in 1 minute Il sec onds, the other way of the track 1 min ute 13 seconds. This was the record for carrying four people in a 50-horse power car for long time. Then along came the Packard, MT. Vincent driving, and
 he did better than Oldfied, but his car is what is called a high-powered car Then came the demonstration of your Su- per-Six at Sheepshead and, to the utter astonishment of the automobile world, you reeled off not only one mile but many miles at the rate of P miles an hour. carrying four people, top and windshield up. Then follow up with the test at Daytona at the rate of 1O3 miles an hour and then at Sheepshead Bay, making the wonderful run of "A hours, averaging 75 & miles per hour for A hours. including stops. We certainly must all take our hats off to you and your staff"

Increase in Demand
 for Damn Products

Commenting on the tremendous in- crease in demand for Damn insert, MT. E. G. Damn, general manager of the Damn Products company of Chicago. says:
 T find two things responsible for the tremendous volume of sales which have been coming to us for Damn inserts in the past few months.
 "The first is the complete reversal of opinion of the majority of automobile engineers, who are now firmly convinced that the only way to get satisfactory spring service out of an automobile, and the only way to get real riding comfort is to use springs that are constantly iubri- cated.
 ''The other reason is the fact that the Damn Products company, manufacturers of the Damn insert, have by reason of a 1000 per cent increase in capital and greatly enlarged facilities for manufacture ing and purchasing, been able to mate rially lower the price of this accessory"

GOODYEAR HELPING EMPLOYES ENLIST Salaries of National Guard Employees Are Not
 Prejudiced

Now that the tramping of feet and the chatter of musxets are heard throughout the nation in response to the president 8 call for mobilization of the National Guard it is interesting to note the part that the Goodyear Tire and Rubber com pany has had in the nations preparedness programme.
 Goodyear encourages it's employees to enlist in the National Guard, allowing them the necessary time for summer mili- tary camp duty, without prejudicing their salaries or positions with the company. Many Goodyearites are affected by the Presidents mobilization order, among whom are executives and engineering ex- perts whose services to the company are valuable.
 In many ways Goodyear has aided the United States government in it's prepared ness programme. Recently two United States navy officers were detailed to the Goodyear factory to receive instructions in the operation of both spherical and kite balloons. All free spherical balloons and kite balloons owned by the government were designed by Goodyear engineers and made in the Goodyear factory.

"Firestone" Defined

There are hundreds of people who remember the question, What does Firestone mean?" asked in the play, Ut Pays to Advertise" Like many other sayings in the play this question car ried great deal of business signifi- canoe. The enthusiastic young men of the play. starting in business, knew that the word "Firestone' would ir- stantly bring to the mind of their finan- cial packer its fellow-word tires"
 True, they were using it purely as a publicity argument. but it will be noticed that they selected for their arg ument on tires name that meant tires" and nothing else. In other words, they chose the tire built by spe- cialists.

Uncomfortable Honors

From the Country Gentleman. In 1882 an intimate friend of MT. Iin- coin visited him in Washington, findin g him rather depressed in spirits as the result of the reverses repeatedly sui fered by the federal troops.
 "This being President isn't all it is supposed to be. is it. MT. Lincoln "' asked his visitor
 "No." flashed Lincoln with twinkling eyes. q feel like the Irishman who, after being ridden on rail-. said: Tt it wasn't for the honor av tn thing I'd rather walk"

OF INTEREST TO AUTOMOBILE OWNERS AND DEALERS
MRS. l. c. BEATTY IN HER
 KNIGHT-WILLYS COUPE

Among the Birmingham women motor ists who have expressed interest in the motion picture lecture to be given at the Jefferson theatre Tuesday evening by Henry H. flower on the Knight sleeve valve motor, is Mrs. l. c. Beatty. Mrs. Beatty has operated a car herself since she was a young girl; in fact, she bears the distinction of being the first woman in Birmingham to drive a car, and the first car she ever drove was an Over land.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-06-25

ITO operate my Willys-Knight coupe requires no physical exertion whatever" says Mrs. Beatty. "One simply presses a button pushes lever and then guides the car by slight touch of the steer ing wheel.'
 In his lecture on the Knight motor MT. Hover will show by motion pictures why women have come to realize that the operation of motor car requires no more physical effort than does bridge whist. And, according to most women, motor- ing is lots more fun.

The Reticence of Discretion

From the Washington Star.
 "I suppose you know the answer to about any question an interviewer could ask?"
 Possibly" replied Senator Sorghum 'The fact that I know the real answer so thoroughly is sometimes what makes me trifle diffident about expressing myself"

Needless Expense

From Youths Companion

He was seated in the smoking room of the station when typical Frenchman. from across the border of Canada. appeared at the tick ct window and asked the agen' for ticket to Lewiston.
 Straight or return?" inquired the agent.
 Wat you mean. straight or return 2? inquired the Frenchman. Lewildered.
 Why" said the agent. "a straight ticket will take you to Lewiston only. and return ticket will bring you back here"
 The Frenchman understood 1t once Say he shouted, wat for you tink I want som return ticket wen 1 am already on de place"

An Unfamiliarity

From the WashingtOn star
 'T suppose you feel perfectly at home in your motor car by this timer"
 No" replied MT. Chuggins. "Tte way my family and friends keep telling ms that it wasn't much of . car in the first place and that I don't know how to run it anyhow. makes me feel like a perfect stranger to it."
