falling in behind the fire apparatus
and following 1t to tho scene Of tho
fire, violating the speed ordinances
and tndangering many lives are to
be dealt with harshly by Mayor

Watkins.
Chief Watkins stated today that
in many cases largo number OF
cars follow the fire truck and eX.
coed the speed limit, they run so
close to the fire apparatus that if
it were to stop suddenly the cars
behind would crash into the truck
and probably injure firemen when
their services would BIO needed the
most
When the department responded
to call on Locust avenue the
other night six cars followed the
truck and Chief Watkins stated
that the truck made better than 10
miles an hour while en- route to the
fire and that some OF the auto.

Mt times. II anything had broken
on the truck making it necessary
for sudden stop several OF the
trailing cars would have crashed
into thu truck, according to Chief

tic laws is to be arrested and will
heb given the limit under the ex-

The first automobile show ever
held in Cambridge will open this
evening and everything was in readl-
ness early this afternoon for the
event. The entries for the show be
gan to arrive early Monday morning
and by noon today all of them had
reached the city although two or
three had not been placed on exhibit
ton as the machines had TO be clean
ed up before being placed on the
floor but by tonight every car viii be
in place and lovers of automobiles,
everyone interested, whether an
owner, a prospective owner or one
loving the beautiful will have Oppor-
tunity to satisfy to his or her heart 5
content the desire to see the pro
ducts of the greatest automobile fac
tories in the entire world. Ihere
are big automobiles and little ones,
there are modestly equipped and
luxuriously equipped machines, there
are machines built for steady. con-
tinuous. moderate speed and there
are machines built to run nearly a
hundred miles an hour; there are
machines for every requirement the
ticular and fastidious the prospect
i've purchaser may be.
Quality never finds its way into
an automobile by accident. 1t IS
due to certain reasons, to the pres
ence of high grade materials; skill
full engineering; exacting tests IN
laboratories in the factory, and on
the road, and but few persons have
anv conception of the vast amount OF
money that is tied up in the auto
mobile industry, the machines eX-
hibited at the Cambridge Show this
week have behind them over bill
lion dollars. Of course, when one
goes to counting money in ten fig
ures, 81 900 100000, it is great
deal of money but when one stops
and thinks of the amount OF money
required to build and equip each
separate automobile and then thinks
of the great number of automobiles
that are being built in American fac
tories, one has to think in many tlg-
ures, in fact if the capitalization OF
the American Automobile manufac-
turers should be turned into dollar
bills and laid down end to end they
would more than cover an automo-
bile road from New York to San
Francisco.
Nothing like this automobile show
has ever been attempted in Cam
bridge before; there have been and
will be wonderful Fairs, at which
horticultural exhibits and allied pro-
ducts predominant; there have been
Yacht races. where boats were the
center of attraction, blu at the Au-
tomobile Show there is something of
special interest to every class of peo-
pie, whether they are horticulturists,
tradesmen lawyers, doctors, minis
tiers. fishermen, bankers or what not,
they are interested in automobiles
and there is a car on show that will
interest everyone of them.
Of course the local dealers are
represented at the Show, The Sam
uel E. Hubbard Hardware Co, local
distributors for the Studebaker cars,
are showing their Small Six Sedan
and Special Six, both of which are
attracting much attention.
Samuel H. Mills G Co.. are show
ing the Maxwell line; their exhibit
consisting of very pretty Sedan.

SHOWS DTPHTHERIA ANTIrOxTN
 HAS SAVED MANY LIVES

Through a chart issued by the Con- necticut department of health on the diphtheria fatality rate in the state, it is indicated that the free distribution of diphtheria antitoxin by the state de- pertinent of health to the citizens of Connecticut has not been in vain; in fact, it shows the great saving in lives by the increased use of antitoxin in Con- necticut In recent years, particularly in 1920.
 Before 1884. 25 to 40 per cent. of diphtheria cases died.
 In 1884, diphtherfa antitoxin was first used by Connecticut physicians.
 By 1900. only 17.s per cent. of the cas- es died 4g
 In 1910, 11.7 per cent. of the diphthe- ria cases died.
 In 1920. the remarkably low rate of 6.5 per cent, was reached, which shows what can be accomplished by the com bining efforts of parents; physicians and health officers in saving lives.
 Further work against diphtheria car be done by using the .Schick test and diphtheria vaccine (toxin-antitoxin mis. ture). The state department of health distributes the Schick test and the toxin. antitoxin mixture for imrnunizing pur. .. poses to physicians in the state through the local health officers. About 75: per cent. of children enter ing school can "catch" diphtheria Thes, l susceptible children can be picked ou | by using the sSchick test and then car be made immune to diphtheria by usinl 1 the toxin -antitoxin mixture, which cal | be given by any physician.
