List Of Motor Car Manufac-

Present reports Indicate that

automobile manufacturers, con-

cars. As was the case in 1920.
Ford ranked first and Dodge

The total number OF passenger
cars built during the year, ac-
cording to an estimate publish

Journal, was l.535O00 as com
pared with l.SS5.l50 for 1920.

AS the figures faded away, the party

the spectacle.
Was Omen, Belief
While they could not arrive at a
positive verdict as to the cause of the
strange phenomenon nor as to its mis-
sion, all were OF the opinion that an
omen, indicative OF some awful cal
amity had been revealed to them.
They were firm in the belief that the
date, 1861. had been presented in
token OF some great event that would
occur at that time and those of the
party who survived until that year
were positive in their conviction that
the strange appearance in the sky
which so completely unnerved that
