GOOD WORK FOR UNEMPLOYED

With a record of finding jobs for 105 men since being
organized only a few days ago Mayor Wilson's committee on
unemployment has fully justified its existence. While there
remains a long list of those who are still idle it is doubtful
il all of the 1O5 who have found work would have been en-
ployed today had it not been for the interest shown by this
committee. This committee of public spirited citizens forms
q connecting link between the job and the jobless. 1t is a
clearing house, so to speak. Its possibilities for accom-
plishing much good this winter is apparent. Those who are
out of a job would do well to keep in touch with~th COM
mittee as those who are looking for help are going to go to
this committee more and more to secure what they want.

are reached by a long flight of steps

I have stuck it out today
Though my nerves are badly worn;

That / cannot truly say,
1t is ebbing pretty fast;
Take, oh take that pipe away.

j could bite through armor plate,
Nails and bottles I could chew
In my present nervous state:
Let your step and speech be light
When you come where I may be,

Every fibre in me jumps,
I'm a troubled tortured bloke,
Angry, sullen. in the dumps;

Still, l guess I'll stick it out
For at least another day,
Which is why you hear me shout
Take that doggone pipe away"

Is followed through Manorville TO the
south shore route at Centre Moriches.
From there on to Southampton the road

James A. Andres, manager of the
Roamer Sales Company. Inc, announces
q reduction in prices on all models of
Roamer cars. which became effective
July 16. 1921. ..r
The new prices show cuts rated up to
$3.50. and bring the price OF the standard
touring model under 5000. F. o. B.,
Kalamazoo. Mich.
Back in the days when materials and
labor were on a constantly rising mar
ket Roamer prices were advanced only
from s100 to $3.50 each time-barely euf-
ficient to cover the costs OF improve
ments in. design and construction and
actual increase in material costs.
That Roamer construction has been
much improved during the last three
years was shown by the six worlds rec
ords established on Daytona Beach, Fla.
by a stock Roamer chassis with Dussen-
berg motor.
The actual cost Of building the I'M
proved Roan1er is fully Is per cent high
er than the costs OF building the older
models. but as the Barley Motor Car

Where is the Stanley steamer factory?
What other steamers are made?
A ID Use it over again, but not for

Q. Why hasn't the electric car made
any headway? There are so many advan-
tages Of it that all / can see against IT
is the speed.
A Aside from its performance being
much below that of gasolene car. the
electric has limited range of opera
ton. since battery charge gives only
a definite amount Of mileage. AS one

Q. What is ,Ae meaning Of truck

truck and the load Is given at 5000
pounds. Is that the maximum load or
the safe load?
A. A truck tractor Is vehicle which
carries load and also pulls one. An IN,
dustrial truck Is small vehicle used
for carrying goods indoors or for shor'
distances outdoors. as, for example, trunk
and baggage carriers as used at rail-
road stations. Industrials are usually
operated by storage batteries. CD Thai
