said w. L. Hummer. local distributor
of the Lexington car. ut Is always
some time before the full utility of an
important innovation is realized. For
some years after its invention the tele-
phone was regarded as moro or less OF
an interesting luxury. The part which
it was destined to play in the conduct
of business was not grasped at first.
No one had visions Of q gigantic net
work of telephone wires covering the
entire country, or OF the day when
business men would think nothing OF
talking over the phone from points a
thousand miles apart.

ways that even Edison probably never
dreamed of. How could the world get

business much more completely and
efficiently than it did twenty-five years
ago.
Every one of these inventions, so I'M

developed to such a surprising degree
of efficiency for just one reason-be-
cause it saves time for the individual

mobile is of such vital importance in
the world today.
1.-THE automobile has greatly .increas-

thereby enabling them to accomplish
more in day. 1t has brought a mans
business headquarters nearer to his

freed the owner from dependence upon
uncertain transportation methods; 1t
brings him to the office. factory, or

better condition.; thus increasing his
efficiency, which every one realizes is a
patriotic thing to do right now.
"After new and important ways Of
getting greater efficiency out Of some

developed gradually 1t is hard to I'm
derstand why they were not Thought
