bad idea so the circus was soon
started up and many people came SO
that when the money was counted 1t
amounted to ten dollars because she
had the circus for a week. Then she
brought 1t to the Red Cross station,
feeling happy for h knew the SOL
diers and sailors would need 1t, though
it was a small amount.

AMONG US GIRLS

Dear Girls:
Well, the King of the Belgians and
Queen Elizabeth landed on our shores
yesterday. Once more royalty is visit
ing our shores. Have your ever read
of the wonderful work of this King
ALBERT. What a wonderful king he
was. He is a king of an old lineage
but he has considered himself as a
servent of the people. Neve mas
this king expressed that old theory OF
the Divine Right of Kings" Always
has he lived an unselfish life giving
himself for the good of his people.
We are always ready to knock those
high UP in authority but we find that
few have aver attempted to say any
thing to slur this wonderful kings
name. Isn't it wonderful to have such
things said about you? Do you realize
that everyone of us in our own little
ways by living unselish lives and try
Eing to do for others can AVE our
own friends saying just the self same
things about us?
Perth Amboy evening news., 1919-10-03

If everyone would ask me as easy
q favor to be granted as admitting
you to our column they would all be
pleasures. Your description is sc
vivid that it fairly makes me long &c
have ~ realized.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1919-10-03

We are glad to welcome you into
the column, Ginger" and l wonder
if you will be as interesting n al
spicy as your name. Dc tell us NOR
about yourself.

The Fleet Motor Company. Inc. 1856
Broadway. has taken the agency for the
Tower motor truck. which made de-
cided impression Mt the show by reason
Of It's obvious sturdiness and the use
throughout its chassis of the best stand
ard parts. Manager Caswell of the Fleet
company's truck department is much
gratifed with the results Of tho exhibi-
ton OF this truck.
Sidney j. Fleet In president OF the
Fleet Motor Company. He was for
merly Wall street banker and fnan-
cier. Mr.. Fleet sold his seat on the ex-
change ten years ago and retired to his
estate in Virginia to try out scientific
farming.
Farming soon palled on Mr.. Fleet, as
he was accustomed to quicker returns,
SO he came back to New York and en-
tered the automobile business and be-
came the Eastern distributor for McFar-
Ian Six cars in 1914.
Mr.. Fleet has made a decided success
in handling pleasure cars but has been
keeping his ear to the ground waiting
for what he considered q truck worth
while and of intrinsic value.
After n great deal of careful investi-
CATION of the Tower truck and Its COM
ponent parts and Of the financial and
ethical standing of the Tower Motor
TT. * Company and its officers, engi-
neg.s factory equipment and after sew
cral trips to the factory. he decided to
take on the line and acquired tbs dis

MERIT OF MOTOR
Willys-Knight Better Than
Ever After Six Months,
Says User Here.

II Is generally conceded that taxicab
servce Is the most trying class OF work
upon which to base any argument for
long dependable performance. For this
reason tho instantaneous recognition of
the merits of the Willys-knight sleeve
valve motor which were achieved in
New York has been extremely crafty
ing 10 the Willys-Overland Company.
The underlying cause for the rapid
advancement of the Willys-Knight taxi
cab is accredited to its Knight motor
and the refinements in its body construc-
tion.
The great fleet of 162 WHY'S Knight
taxicabs owned by the Westcott Ex-

The Willys-Knight taxicabs are re-
pete with the finest fittings throughout,
with deep upholstery and rich Spanish
leather trimmings. seats and backs. The
body is finely finished, tastefully
trimmed and comfortable as the private
limousine. And convenient too for both
driver and passengers. A space is pro-
rided beside the drivers seat for hand
luggage.
The power plant requires no periodi-
cal grinding of valves. A few thousand
miles of service merely makes It more
