Veteran in Service Promoted
From Ranks; Former
Bicycle Salesman.

The Haynes Automobile company
has announced the appointment of s.
NJ. How, until recently eastern sales
representative, as general sales mana
ger. Mr.. How is a veteran in the serv-
ice of the country's first motor car
makers He first Joined the Haynes

PLEASURE CAR TITLE
NOT ENTIRELY RIGHT
Motor Car Used More for Eff
ficiency and Economy Rather
Than Amusement.

The phrase pleasure car" COM
monty used TO distinguish the passen-
ger automobile from the commercial
truck has ceased To- be strictly ac-
curate says the distributor of the
Lexington Minute Man Six.
The motor car today is bought
primarily as a means toward greater
personal efficiency and as an econ
omizer of time and money II has
made It possible for thousands of peo-
pie to save at least an hour n day.
The doctor is enabled to see two or
three times as many patients In all
large cities industrial plants are being
located in the outskirts and the men
who direct them are enabled TO run
into town for lunch for conference,
for visits 10 the bank. brokers' Of
ficers and so on, which would be
impossible without the automobile.
Again the motor car makes II pos
sible for the busy man to get out to
the golf club for an afternoons re-
taxation which keeps him in trim. At
night the man of affairs needs his
car to got home quickly, TO get to
the theater, to keep social engage
ments. or to take him to the depot to
take train.
THE fact Is that we have become
so accustomed to the automobile
that we do not realize how important
IL has become as a means of trans
portation and as an instrument of
personal efficiency The opinion that
the automobile is luxury, or play
thing of the well to-do totally Ignores
the facts. Nobody who stops to
analyze the use that the average man
makes of his car, tould continue to
think of the automobile as a pleasure
vehicle" "

ARMY OF W0RKMEN IN
AUTOMOBILE BUSINESS
Rally to New Industry Without
Weakening Any Other Line
of Activity.

at remarkable how the working
FORCES Of the world can accommodate
the needs of new and stupendous in
dustrles' said +. l.. Emerson. gem
eral sales manager of the Olds Motor
works, and not seriously affect es-
tabhshcd Industries.
Take the automobile industry, fol
instance, and the many lines that
are allied with IT, when the whistle
blows at the gret Oldsmobile plant
an army of men stream out. All OF
them were engaged in other pursuits
in recent years. Add to these the
many thousands employed 10y other
motor factories, and also probably as
many more employed in &fferent
Industries supplying the materials
that enter INTO automobile construc,
tion. There are foundrymen, electri-
clans. textile workers and mechanics
frCm almost every walk of life. Then
there is the vast army OF men now
engaged in selling automobiles in
every city and town in the country.
Where did they all come from?
And how has it been possible FOB
thCm to leave other pursuits and not
seriously affect those lines of busi-
ness? But very few industries have
been adversely affected by the com
ing Of the automobile. It's true that
at the present time there is a scarcity
of labor and mechanics everywhere,
but this is due mostly to the fact that
all industries are working at record
capacity ana practically all of them
nre employing more men than ever
before.
1T is certain that II thru any
miraculous circumstance the bottom
should suddenly fall out of the auto
mobile industry and its army of em-
ployees was forced to find employ
mont elsewhere, 1t would create a
most serious situation and disrupt la
Dor conditions generally.
'"The only way | can figure II out
is that the automobile has been such
a great help in almost every line of
business that they are able to accom-
plish so much more in the same
length of time that this vast army
has been released to the automobile
business without great Inconvenience
to the other lines. Ii Is certainly
splendid tribute to the motor car TO
feel that 1t has done this, and 1t puts
an end to any question as to whether
it is now a necessity

LIVING UP TO I,ATRlMONY
Marriage Il Divine Institution, Not
Human Contract.

"a man may build n throne for the
woman he loves says the editorial
writer i'm Mothers Magazine, "but he
will find that to make her n queen
he must mount IL beside her. for only
where two rule as one can either hold
true sway. Whether married or sin
gle. we do not live unto ourselves
alone. All the worldssomehow is af-
fected by what we are, and in the
married state we have n greater obli-
cation than merely to keep the peace
or to observe the conventions or to
demonstrate how we can improve
upon Gods law of life and love.
"It Is well that we should use every
God-given power, mind and spirit,
every quality end grace and virtue at
our command, before and after, in
order to live up to the privileges and
responsibilities of marriage. But
marriage fortunately IL thing of the
heart. rather than of the intellect
and II Is our wrong attitude of mind
toward matrimony that would drag II
down to our own level and limit of
comprehension and make II a merely
human mistake instead OF divine
gift.
EFF we would make II a blessing in
stead of curse; II we would have II
encompass all of our needs In joy and
sorrow; If we would have IL endure
with us thru life and eternity as the
sublime fact OF our existence, we
must live up to 1t hour by hour in
spirit of faith and hope and charity.
"And let us try, whatever our pres
ent position, to look upon marriage as
not of ourselves, but Of God"
