Henry Ford has exhibited enough
different characteristics in his suit

will be a goner.

~. Halvorsen has applied himself

been in Audubon, and no doubt a lit

world of good. Their many friends
hope their vacation will be as en-
joyable as they anticipated.
While railroad passenger agents
say tourist travel is heavy with va
cationists seeking cooler chimes.
there's another sort of tourists who
are now much in evidence on trains
pulling in and out of railroad ter
minals. They are the knights of
the road" they who travel mainly
in the side door Pullmans. They
are not bothered with inconvenience
of purchasing tickets, studying time
tables and looking after vacation
baggage. The knights" travel in
a style of their own and any freight
train going in their direction is their
train.
