THE DEADLY AUTOMOBILE

Jud Sloat, SON of Mr.. and Mrs.
Sam Sloat, living some miles north
of Gettysburg, met with a painful
accident with his car Monday,
when a front wheel broke down.
causing the car to turn over at
least two or three times, falling
on the young man in the region of
the lower ribs. DR.. Riggs was
summoned from Pierre to see if
anything could be done for him.
but the n INJURIES were beyond re-
pair, and he passed away during
the night. We understand the flu
neral was to be held today in the
M. +. church of Gettysburg. The
deceased had recently graduated
from college and had a promising
future before him.

Another Endurance
Record Made by Doris

Edward A. Sanquinet Of Webster
Groves, Mo-, called at the Office of the
Doris Motor Car company recently
and, among other things, mentioned a
remarkable performance of Doris
touring car which he owns.
This car is a 1906 model touring
car which was used for several years
as a pleasure car and more recently
Mr.. Sanqunet has used it for business
and pleasure also. He makes trips
regularly practically every day be-
tween Webster Groves and St. Louis.
sometimes with a fairly heavy load
and, after running over 100000 miles,
he says his old Doris is still giving
splendid service.
Mr.. Sanquinet is in the plumbing
and repair business in Webster which,
Of course, subjects his Doris to con-
siderable heavy hauling. H. H. Can
non, local Doris representative, has
recently received announcement of a
500 advance in the Doris truck price.

confronted with placards, post cards,
letters, bill-posters, newspaper articles
and every other publicity device
known, to discourage extravaganza.
No Longer a Luxury.
And when you stop to think that
100000 new cars are being bought in
a country with a population of only
100000, the condition can be ac-
counted for in no other way than that
Canadians do not regard the automo-
bile as a luxury, but have found it
under war conditions a prime neces-
sity. 1t has aided in the movement
Of troops, facilitated the transporta-
ton of war material, increased the ef-
ficiency of the farm, aided in the
quicker movement OF all things per-
tanning to business, and has been a
great economic factor in the develop
ment of general business.
"Our population is about fifteen
times that of Canada. 1t has already
sent 100000 men to the front, which
would be equivalent to our sending
100000. Its purchase of 100000 cars
this year, with one-ffteenth Of the
population of the United States, is
equivalent to our purchasing $780,
900 automobiles, which is just what
this country will buy during 1917.
Buys Heavy Per Capita.
$50 Canada under war conditions,
with a constant crusade for economy,
with the withdrawal of men, power
and money far in excess of anything
contemplated in the United States. is
after two and one-half years buying
as many automobiles per capita as the
United States expected to buy before
the declaration Of war with Germany.
Theory and prophecy are not very
convincing, but here are the actual

so-called pleasure car variety as we'll
as trucks are all indispensable element
in connection with warfare. Today
thousands OF motor cars would be I'M
der process OF building i'll Europe if
there were factories there in which
to build them. The factories and
workmcn, however, are not available.
In this country we have the fac
tories and the men. Although some OF
our automobile plants may be taken
over entirely by the government for
war material purposes, there will re-
main scores of others available for
automobile building and the situation
will only serve to increase their BUSH
ness.
while there may possibly be a
shortage in the supply OF automobiles.
there is no. likely to exist an over
supply of the product and that is real
y the most important danger TO fear"

CANADIAN AUTO
BUSINESS IS Big
DESPITE THE WAR
People No Longer Look on
Car as Luxury, But Buy as
Heavily as in United
States.

The feeling of apprehension which
has unconsciously arisen concerning
the manner and extent that general
business, and particularly the automo-
bile and rubber industries, will be af-
fected by the entrance of the United
States into the war, is very ably COM
mented on by G. NJ. Stadelman, vice
president of the Goodyear Tire and
Rubber company, Akron, O.
Mr.. Stadelman has just returned
from thorough canvass of the wars
effect on Canadian business, which he
made i'll the hope that a more definite
idea might be formed of the condi-
tons that ourNcountry must face and
conquer in the near future.
Canada has gone through precisely
the same conditions that now con-
front US, so the effect of the war there
ought to be fairly indicative of what
we may expect here" he declares.
General business conditions are very
satisfactory in Canada at the present
time.
Great Increase in Sales.
81 found that in 1918 Canada had in
creased its number of registered cars
16,780, or So per cent, as against the
1912 registration, and during 1914 H.
070, or SO per cent, as compared to
1918. War was declared August I,
1914, so that the last figures were little
affected thereby. =
Nov after two and one-half years
Of warfare Canada is this year buying
100000 new motor cars, almost five
times as many as were purchased DUR
ing 1914, and an increase of IS per
cent over the normal increase for 1918
and 1914.
Every possible effort has been
made to have Canadians save to help
win the war. Ever since war was de-
clsred the people have been i'm
portuned to discourage the spending

OPTIMISTIC VIEW
OF AUTO INDUSTRY
More Danger of Shortage of
Supply Of Autos Than an
oversupply by Fac
tories.

"A statement appeared the other
day to the effect that the pleasure car
business in Canada during 1916 was
greater THAI ever before il. the history
OF the automobile industry" asserts
L. H. De Brown of the Dc Brown
Auto Sales company. The authority
for that statement was not named. but
it is reasonable TO assume that the
statement was practically correct.
Therefore, Canada's experience in
1916 should answer the question as to
what effect the war will have on the
American automobile industry.
ION every side we hear reports of
increased business in Canada during
the last two years, not only for strict
" Canadian industries, but for United
States manufacturers who are ell
gagged in extensive business in the
Dominion.
Business Grows in Canada.
"a big roofing concern, harvester
company, varnish-making, organiza-
ton, cream separator company. a
big gramophone organization and
many other varied United States in
dustries speak glowingly Of increased
business ranging from 10 to 100 per
cent. If that situation has prevailed
in Canada, It should be even more ap-
plicable to the United States.
"The European conflict has proven
beyond doubt that motor cars of the

facts. The experience of Canada for
the last two and one-half years. and
its present liberal patronage Of the
motor car, ought to be an earnest of
what the future has in store for US.
If Americans have had any doubts
concerning the stability and pros
perity of the motor car business, or
business in general, the experience Of
Canada ought to dispel them"

Heather shrines.

After months spent in idolatrous
lands I have been unable to see much
real worship in heather shrines The
educated worship with their tongues
in their cheeks and the ignorant with
their hearts in their mouths. But the
amount of real worship that exists In
heather temples is very small.
Sometimes a bereaved mother will
enter the temple and draw from her
kimono the tiny bib of departed lit
tie one and tie 1t to the statue. Of Jizo,
the god of motherhood Sometimes an
old man or woman, almost blind, will
enter the temple and rub the eyes Of
a wooden god and then rub his own In
the hope that eternal darkness may
not close in on his affrighted soul. In
some places Buddhist services are as
digni1ed, as well attended and as help
full as our own.-Maynard Owen Will
liams in Christian Herald.
