Mrs. Chrystine Orn Piercey, of
Somers Point, has taken up motoring
as a means of recreation and a pleas
ant contrast to her duties as manager
of the popular health and pleasure
resort hostelry, known as the Boule-
ward Hotel. Mrs. Piercey has select
ed the dainty and luxurious Ford Sc
dan because of its compactness, ease
of operation and tasteful furnishings
and her choice is only one more dem
o%nstration of the fact that this type
of car is becoming the favorite con-
veyance of that growing class of dis
corning business women who demand
"refined luxuriousness" at a price
that their business training and acu-
men has shown is economical and
commensurate with the value receiv-
ed.
Mrs. E. NJ. Perrett, of Mckee City,
after a thorough search for a car
which she could handle without male
help, has signified her choice of a
woman's car by purchasing a new
Ford touring. Mrs. Perrett has
found that those two greatest "buga-
boos" of motordom, cranking and
changing tires, is readily handled by
the average woman if she will only
"get the hang of the thing" and that
many women never accomplish those
feats simply because they never take
the time to learn how. If a woman
uses exactly the same methods as her
husband or brother does in cranking,
she will find that very little strength
is required, while getting the mack"

as being impossible to all but the

RICHMOND, Nov. Halloween
with its various features of mirth,
mystery and mischief is again over.
Several rude pranks played by the
naughty boys have been reported
and we are indeed sorry. Jokes Of
an innocent nature are enjoyed by
all, but when it comes to destroy
ing and defacing property and caus-
ing injuries in different ways, 1t is
NO longer joke but a mean act that
ought to be handled by the law.
The charms of Halloween are lost
by such acts and IL they continue,
! foresee a day when the national
government will take the matter up
and perhaps do away with Hallow-
cen.
