FAULKNER IS CONSIDERED
 REAL RAPID
Can Say More in Four Min utes Than Best Rap- idfire Gun Can Shoot
 in Same Time.

Talk about one or Uncle Sams latest model of rapid-fire machine guns!
 It has nothing over H. L. Faulk- ner, when it comes to rapid-fire speaking. It is generally admitted that he can say more in the four minutes allotted time than any "ani- maf that ever walked on two legs
 Some of the other speakers are in clined to fudge" a little on the four minutes. But not so MT. Faulkner He times his words with the seconds of the clock and stops on the very dot And the most amazing part of it is how he can so accurately gauge the time and say so much and close without leaving the au- dience ''in the air" He makes a finished talk and even the expert court stenographer would scarcely be able to take down the words as fast as he utters them.
