Arizona republican., 1921-10-30

as it is expected the affair this year will be on more elaborate scale than any previous show. the daily attend ance will probably double last years figures, when the number of visitors then broke all records.
 An important feature this year is the formal recognition of the show convention by the Cycle Trades of America, Inc, under whose auspices the affair is being held, and it's com ponent organizations, the Bicycle Manufacturers association. the Cy- -cle Parts and Accessories associa- ton, the Cycle Jobbers' Association of America, and the Motorcycle and Allied Trades association. Hereto- fore the events were sta.sed by the latter association only and the mem bers of the parent bodies were in vited to tie up with the shows in the way of exhibits. As a result not so much enthusiasm was displayed and only a few, of the many firms in the industry reserved space for eXhI5i- tion purposes. With the entire four trade bodies working as unit. it is an assured fact the exhibition this year will stand out as one long to be remembered in the annals of ey- cling.
 The cycle industry has progressed far more rapidly in the past six years than great many persons realize It is true the advent of the automo- bile caused a falling off in the pro- duction of bicycles for several years, but the bicycle did not die entirely. as is probably the sense of thought of some people. On the contrary, the bicycle continued and still is recog- l l. rhaanpGf Of transportation known to man and it is said there are between three and five million in use in this country today Last years production was well over the half million mark, while the motorcycle factories turned out more than fifty thousand machines.
 Use of the bicycle and motorcycle as a conveyance for industrial work CTS has become so general, it is de- clared, that industrial leaders are advocating the provision of sheds and racks in every plant so that enl- ployes may store their wheels while at work.
 The workman himself benefits physically by ride in the fresh air before his days work begins. He does not have to depend on crowded street cars, and If he happens to re- side within a reasonable distance or the plant he can scoot home in few minutes at noon-time for hot meal.
 Some of the larger plants of the country that provide sheds and racks for the motorcycles and bicycles of employees are: The Underwood Type writer company, Hartford, Conn; American Rolling Mill company, Middleton, O.; P1erce-Arrow Motor Car company. Buffalo, N. Y; Ma tional Cash Register company, Bay ton, O.; Domestic Engineering com paay (DeIco light products), Dayton O.; United Shoe Machinery com pany, Beverly. Mass; U. $. Arsenal, Springfield. Mass; Boston & Albany Railway Shops. OIean, N. Y; York Manufacturing company, York, Pa
 Many children throughout the coun- try ride bicycles to school and the authorities have observed the inn porrance of safeguarding the bicycles while the children are in session by erecting suitable sheds with racks Two of the finest examples of wheel racks at school are the ones at the Orange county high school, Santa Ana, Calif.. and the Decatur high school, Decatur, III.
 Bicycles are also popular among Boy Scout organizations and the boys departments of the Y. II. c. A. S Many bicycle patrol units make UT the personnel of the Boy Scouts oi America.
