 1 were also active in the carly days. | Such names as Stubbs, Meagher, Ky | land, Brake, Gayle, House, Reeves, l Joyce, Mccain, Horton, Walthour, Redenbeck and Moody were before the public, due to their activities with regard to the sale. repair and racing of motorcycles. Not only were track races held regularly, but long dis tanee motorcycle tours-Birmingha to Montgomery and Atlanta-were common.
 On May 24. 1911, the Birmingham Motor club held its first hill climb on Shades mountain (Oxmoor hilD. At thIs meet, bicycle, motorcycle and automobile tests were run Ted Brownell and c. W. Richardson were the stars of the day, both driving Fords, and cleaning up every thing in their class.
 There have been no official hill climbs in Birmingham since 1911, and l believe that Birmingham is due another real soon.
 I believe that it was the year 1909 which saw the introduction of ex- tensive advertising of automobiles in the Birmingham papers. A copy of The Age-Herald, dated May T, 1909. shows half page ads by the follow ing concerns; Drennen Motor company tBuiek, Stevens -Duryea and Peer less), T. s. Smith and Sons (Pre- m1er).

 There are. few old time automo- piles still running on the streets of Birmingham. Among them the Pack ard, 1909 model of G. T. Wofford president of the Wofford Oil corr pany, and another Packard belonging to the Harris Transfer company and used by James Yhitson, master me chanic.
