n two weeks stay at Cleveland. Ohio,
brought back the good news that he
had been successful in securing the
much sought for agency of the Hal
twelve cylinder car. Mr.. Bobst drove
one of the Hal ears from Cleveland
to Pittsburgh and back, and states that
for power on hills. smooth running and
easy control the Hak Is wonder the
roads just seem to melt away under
the wheels.
When asked about his visit to the
Hal factory, Mr.. Bobst remarked that
1t impressed him like stepping into a
mammoth clock because everything in
this factory moves with the utmost
precision, no wasted motions, every
thing perfectly timed. The Hal is a
strictly tailor made car.
The first shipment OF these cars Is
expected to arrive In Tulsa on or about

0LL|ER ASSERTS AUTO
ECONOMIC NECESSITY
Motor Car One of Greatest
Aids to Modern Business
Efficiency Claim.

The automobile increases every in
dividual's capacity to produce" SAYS
l.. j. Ollier. vice-president and di-
rector OF sales of the Studebaker cor
poration. Years ago 1t ceased to be
classed as luxury and now, in every
section OF the country. men in every
walk OF life look upon their cars as a
necessity not to be dispensed with.
People generally have come to ac-
cept the fact that the motor car is an
economic instrument and one of the
greatest aids to modern business eff
cheney. But of even greater impor-
tance. is the fact that the motor car
contributes untold joys and pleasures
to lie when used In purely business
way.
ITO the business and professional
man an automobile means not only
added convenience. but also recreation
and relaxation. The morning spin
from home takes the business man
into his office feeling fresh and vigor-
Gus for the days work. Professional
men find their cars well nigh indis-
pcnsible now. Because of the auto
mobile their patients receive better
care-better because the physician is
at their bedside before conditions be-
come too serious. And the stiff breeze
of a swift ride over the roads is of in
estimable value to the doctors mental
and physical well-being.
Statesmen in various lines of busi-
ness often find their efficiency greatly
enhanced by the use of a motor car.
More calls per day can be made and a
larger territory covered-result, more
sales and increased business. Be-
sides, the salesman with a car finds
his health Is greatly improved from
this outdoor travel.
ITO the family an automobile means
health. strength and added vigor-it
means, in fact, increased happiness
The joys of touring-of the short
weekend trip. or even the evening
ride about town-are too well known
to need further description from me.
Used rightly the automobile is a
| fine thing on the farm. 1t cannot be
used for the same purpose as a
Clydesdale horse. a milch COW. or a
fat pig. and 1t will not bring In a reve-
nue. in just the same way, but 1t has
however. a place to fill. and IL used
with the same judgment that one
would expect to exercise with the
other farm equipment in order to Sc
! cure a reasonable income II will fill
that place Just as we'll as any one OF
the others. Nowadays the farmer
, cannot afford to use the ordinary
means of transportation in getting &c
and from town, but must make every
minute count in order to realize the
fullest benefit of his investment
"A motor car then is time-saver
health giver. business builder. BY
| saving time. by adding health, a motor
car increases individual energy and
business efficiency. And. naturally
enough, anything that makes better
health, greater happiness. bigger
achievements. is real economy.
! Economy as know il means moth
| ing more or less than wise buying. II
is measured by value received. The
man who studies and analyzes and
compares usually gets the most fol
| his money"

Prevents n Double Exposure.

A prolific source of failure in ANA
teur photography can be laid to not
turning the film after an exposure has
been made, with the result that two
images are impressed on the same
film surface. Even the most thotful
person Is apt to forget to turn the
film. and at times invaluable pictures
are thus ruined. With view TO
eliminating all possibility of doubie
exposure. Clarence A. Hoyt of Tacoma,
Wash, has invented an ingenious
little device which prevents a picture
from being snapped until the film has
been turned. When adapted to the
box type Of camera catch locks
with the shutter release lever after an
exposure is made. and In order to un-
lock the lever II Is necessary first TO
turn the film. II Is also possible TO
make the device indicate whether the
film surface In position has been ex-
posed or not by means OF window
In which appears the word exposed"
or "unexposed" as the case my be-

MORE SUCCESSFUL A MAN
MORE HE DEPENDS ON CAR
Maintaining of Personal
Efficiency.

THE more successful a man be-
comes. the more he depends on his
automobile to keep him so" says W.
a. Scott of the Kissel Kar.
ITO him the purchase of an auto
mobile is "a means of maintaining his
personal efficiency.
He knows it enables him to do
more and better work In fact, he
has found out by owning a car he can
do maximum work in the minimum
time. and today it's the time saved.
not the time spent. that counts.
With only sixty minutes in an hour,
it's up TO everybody to make each
minute count. II the average man
and woman will figure up the many
hours an automobile will save them.
and then think of the many things
they can accomplish in that time. they
will see why the automobile is one of
the necessities of the day"

FISK EMPLOYEES
KEEN FOR SPORTS
Successful Factory Athletic
Association Is Maintained
BY Company.

One of the largest and most sue
cessful factory athletic organizations
in the country is that formed among
the employees of the Fisk Rubber
company at Chicopee Falls. Mass.
1t Is organized under the name of
the Fisk Athletic association, and is u
registered member of the A. A. u. Its
plan of organization Is the most com
plete and comprehensive of any OF its
kind. In addition to supporting an
all-star baseball team, known as the
Red Tops. there is conducted the Fisk
Six-Team League. which is regularly
playing some of the best baseball In
the vicinity and affording amusement
ana recreation for the employees OF
all departments. These teams are all
uniformed at the associations expense
and the games are played on FISK
park, u twenty-acre ground controlled
by the athletic association.
Field Meet Held.
Another recent success of this Fisk
Athletic association was the staging
of first-class track meet. to which
were attracted q number of the lead
ing amateur and college stars of New
England.
The chief feature of this meet was a
thrilling finish in the one mile race.
The principals in this real thriller
were Johnny Overton. the star Yale
man, and Freddie Jones of Middle
bury, who came down the last sixty
yards abreast and crossed the finish
line almost together. Overton, how
ever, broke the tape with only a bare
three inches to spare
Andy Kelly of Holy Cross led the
entire field of entrants in the sprints
taking firsts in the 440. 220 and 100
yard events.
The high jump was won handily by
John Stack of Cushing academy and
the pole vault wento to Zitta OF
Chicopee.
In Hands OF Employees.
Some $500 employees, with paid vi
memberships, are enrolled The ac-
tivities are all in the hands OF the EN-.
ployes themselves. governed By
elected officers and committees and
a board OF directors.
This organization is now In its sec.
ond successful year, and its entire
success is attributed to the fact tha
1t is in truth an association whose
activities are at all times in the hand.

 Composite statistics of the eight largest New England colleges, ex- cluding Yale and Harvard and the various technical and agricultural schools, show a similar patriotic spirit, though the available figures indicate only those students who left their books at the first alarm of war and enlisted immediatelyA Of undergrad uates of Amherst, Brown, Dartm outh, Holy Cross, Tufts University of Maine, Wesleyan and Williams, 22 per cent left college before comm mence- ment day to enlist in some branch of the military service and 30 per cent more left at once to engage in farm ing or aid the government in the man. ufacture of munitions or in similar in direct war activities. Many more en- listed just after commencement or early in the summer. Those who en- listed at once were approximately equal in number to students enrolled in the senior classes, which include most of the men above the age of 21 years. The record of Dartmouth was a notable one, for one-third of it's undergraduate body enlisted at once and IT per cent additional en- gagged in indirect war service. Prac- tically all who remained for the com pletion of the college year enrolled in military training courses which re- quired from twelve to twenty-four hours of work week.
 Trinity and Colby.
 Trinity and Colby have shown of what stuff the smaller colleges are made. Over one-fourth of Trinity total enrolment enlisted within a short time of the declaration of war a considerable proportion of them in Hartford's two cavalry troops, now part of the 1O1st Machine Gun Bat talion. One-third of the students al Colby who were physically fit offered themselves to their country when the call came.

Hartford, Oct. 29.-Almost one- half of the students enrolled in all the colleges and universities, technical and agricultural schools of New Eng land enlisted in the active military or naval service of the United States or dropped their studies and devoted all their attention to indirect war service within short time of the entry of this country into war last spring, &C., cording to statistics gathered by the Committee on Publicity of the Con- necticut State Council of Defense.

 \ little over one-fourth of the total enrollment of the colleges enlisted di- roctly in the military service Of their country. There were approximately 20.Oo0 students in the twenty col 1eges of New England when this na- ton became involved in the war. Of these 5,219 joined the colors almost Immediately. Nearly 5000 more took up one form or another of indirect war service. such as agriculture or technical work, bringing the total of war workers to S,20O. These figures do not include graduate enlistments nor enlistments by undergraduates since the selective service act became effective.
 Harvard and Yale.
 All the colleges gave heartily ot their sons when the call came. Sta tistics gathered by the registrars of Yale and Harvard, though more care fully compiled than those of some of the smaller colleges, are thought to be only typical of the rest. These two institutions lost approximately 65 per cent of their enrollments through enlistments, although it has been estimated that on an average only 70 per cent of the average college en- rollment is physically fit for active war service. A midsummer number of the Harvard Alumni Bulletin re corded 1850 of the 2,5S5 undergrad uates who were studying when tht war started as enrolled in training camps, regular or reserve army, navj and aviation service, field ambulance work or other active war service With the addition of graduates tht Harvard honor roll reached a tota of 5000.
