81 spent last Tuesday night in
Ardmore, and with me were three
other parties. We were stopping
at the Wilmington Hotel and all
of us were greatly annoyed by
the number Of automobile that
were parked around the hotel
running with the mufllers open. |

one hours sleep the entire night.
Two or three different parties.
especially about $50 and ;
O'Clock in the morning, raced
their engines as fast as they
could, with the mutflers wide
open. and it made about as much
noise as 500 forty-centimere guns

prohibit an automobile with
cut-out in it being sold within
the state. and that's just what
is going to happen in this state

tomobiles are not care careful
about the handling OF cars. Just
what pleasure anyone gets out
of the running of an automobile
with the mufiler open is a mys-
terry to me. and to be sitting still
