OUR HALLOWEEN PARTY

by virginia Archer, 9th grade
The last day of October came with
an uproar as we were getting prepar-
ed to s4ve Halloween party that
night. There were lanterns hung in
every room and on the porch. At eight
O'Clock the guests began arriving,
sometimes in groups, or in couples.
Ihe two rooms were soon packed.
There were many sitting on the porch
IN groups talking also. The party
progressed without much excitement
until some of the younger ones came
running in, scared very badly. They
said there was something terrible in
our backyard. We all proceeded out
IN the yard to investigate. They took
us to two boxes where two pumpkins
were sitting hallowed out with "eyes.
noses, and mouths" Elizabeth had
left them there that afternoon intend
ing to hang them up in the house. The
party soon broke up leaving behind
them "The Ghosts of Yesterday"
New goods arriving every few days.

ALL STATES APPROVE
NEW FORD LENS
RECENTLY PERFECTED

A new headlight lens recently
perfected by Ford Motor company,
Detroit, for use on it's cars and
trucks has received formal official
approval in each of the As states
now having specific regulations and
provisions for tests.
Ford engineers state that the two
requirements of any headlight are
sufficient road-illumination and
lack of glare. To achieve this re-
suit, it is necessary to develop a
lens which throws a strong light
over the road, but which so weak
ems the rays on a level with the
eyes of an approaching motorist
that there is an absence of glare.
When testing the new Ford lens.
even in those states whose head
light laws are the most eXacting,
it was found that it produced three
times the required illumination of
the road and that the glare was
reduced to one-haf of that al.
lowed.
State officials were impressed
with the Ford lens, many stating
that ii would set a new and higher
standard for automobile headlights
and commencing the Ford Motor
company for the progress that had
been made. Although they are now
included as standard equipment on
all Ford cars, the new Ford III"
lens were so designed that they
would be adaptable to all head
lamps now in use on Ford cars.

CAYUGA LAKE HILL
CLIMB PROVES THE
POWER OF MAXWELL

In Ithaca, n. y, atop one of the
steepest hills in all the charted re-
gions of the earth, there, overlook
ing Cayuga lake, stands Cornell
university And according to NJ. f..
Wood, local Maxwell dealers, high
above Cayugas waters" is not only
a college song, but disagreeable
fact to any motorist who must
climb that hill.
ITO at least three men, however,
the ascent to the university cam
pus has been levelled to a mere
nothing" Mr.. Wood goes on. RE
Gently three cars of the new series
of Maxwell were sold to Professors
Ayers, Birch and Fisk of Cornell
Each man, before buying, requested
that he be permitted to put the car
through his own demonstration
test. Naturally, that was agreed
to; and each one started the car
from standing start and in nigh
gear, and made the difficult ascent
with ease.
Professor Ayres, teacher of farm
mechanics. went bit further with
his test. He chose a road filled
with deep ruts and otherwise very
bumpy. First the car was sent over
the selected course at a speed no
greater than five miles an hour;
then at increasing speeds up to 25
miles an hour. The results were
conclusive and Professor Ayres is
now a Maxwell owner.
1--WE believe that anyone who will
take the trouble to demonstrate a
good Maxwell to himself, as did
these men, will be equally i'm
pressed with its power and strength

NASH INCREASE
FIFTY PER CENT
OVER LAST YEAR

Increase in sales of Nash cars for
the first quarter of the year of
more than so per cent is shown
over the same period in 1921. The
company's four and six cylinder car
factories are oversold.
These facts were brought out in
an interview with C. w. Nash on
his return from an extended trip
throughout the northwest, west and
southwest.
"The first quarter of 1922 shows
an increase in our sales. in number
of cars, of more than so per cent
over the same period last year,
said Mr.. Nash. with reference to
our four-cylinder car we have at
this moment almost twice as many
orders as we will be able to pro-
duce in the plant. The factory ran
in March to its full capacity, yet
we carried over into April some
thing like 400 or 500 untitled or
ders.
Every indication points to the
fact that the four-cylinder car fac
tory will carry over into May over
1000 untitled orders"
There also are many untitled or
ders at the Nash Motors siX-cylin-
der car plant where every effort
is being made to meet the heavy
demand.

| A EST RADIO
DEVEL OP NJ { n 7
IS THE RADIO CAR
Chevrolet Motor Co. Has
Proved That Radio Equip
ment Operates SatisfaC-
toriIy in an Automobile.

The Chevrolet Motor company
has proved that radio equipment
operates satisfactorily in an auto
mobile without the use of a
ground. -
The possibilities that this port
able radio receiving station offers
include an almost limitless field
for use and with such tremendous
strides as these made in its deVel-
opment, it is bound to become one
of the indispensable utilities of
modern civilization.
With a car equipped in this fash
ion it is possible for a family to
drive anywhere within 100 miles or
so of a broad casting station and
picnic while the radio in their car
amuses or instructs them with mu-
sic, sermons or wireless biography.
Education and entertainment can
be transported to wherever people
congregate. With a few cars equip
ped as this one is, minister could
talk to a dozen congregations at
once. If the United States depart
ment of agriculture had similar ra-
dio equipment in the hands of its
county agents, department experts

at once and thus bring the tremen-
dous added benefits to our agri-
culture that would be made posi-
BILE through a greater broadcast
ing of its work.
If the political candidate had
broad casting station available he
could send radio equipped car to
every voting area in his state, and
talk to all of his constituents at
the same time, thus saving his Vo-
cal chords and making it possible
for his hearers to stop listening
when they were tired.
The installation of this equip
ment in the Chevrolet car is so
simple that it is possible to adapt
it to many uses, and therefore we
may expect to see many cars SIM
ilarly equipped in the future. 1t is
also only a matter of a few mo-
ments to remove the radio equip
ment from the car when it is not
desired for use there. 1t can then
be used in the home or the office,
or any other place desired.
Just as anywhere on the high
seas ships can keep constantly in
touch with ports and other ships
through the use of the radio, now
the automobile--the land ship
can immensely facilitate distribu-
ton of information to the great
benefit of mankind.
One ingenious amateur, by util-
izing the power of the generator on
his car. not only receives messages
but also transmits them.
Such equipment makes possible
the use of motor cars as scouts or
reporters of crop, weather or news
messages from any part OF the
country.
The news reporter need no lon
ger be obliged to beat his rivals to
the wire. With a car equipped to
talk instantly and directly with the
radio office of his paper, he is
free of all restrictions or compe-
tition.

MARKET FOR BONDS
IMPROVED In WEEK
Listed Securities at Higher
Prices-New Obligations

Conditions in the bond market las.
week We're improved. Several large
new issues of corporate bonds found a
ready market and the course of prices
in listed bonds was again upward. Gen
orally speaking. sentiment among in

fnl and a canvass revealed that their
books have been pretty we'll cleared of
recent issues
The reinvestment of funds received
around July / in dividend and interest
payments made possible the sale of
approximately $S7, 600 900 Of new bonds
The bulk of that large total was in
the form of Industrial bonds. Two is
sues alone accounted for s45.000.000 OF
the total They were 100000 Humble
Oil and Refining Company gold deben-
ture 51a per cent bonds and $4,000, 0Ot
6ls per cent. first mortgage gold bonds
of the b. F. Goodrich Company.
The railroad bond market was featured
by the offering of more than $4,000, ,OOC
equipment trust certificates of the Read
ing and Seaboard Air Line companies.
In the public utility group the largest
offering was $l3.5O0,000 s per. cent. first
mortgage gold bonds of the Detroit
City Gas Company
Firmness which developed in the call
money market toward the end OF last
week created little surprise. but the
furry generally was regarded as a
temporary affair caused by Government
Withdrawals and calling of loans. The
general trend in the time money market
was toward lower levels and the con-
t.nued rise in bond prices led to pre-
dictions of easy money conditions for
the rest of the year.
Some interest was manifested In the
IL. -
the Federal Reserve Bank, the first inti-
nation of a bro ldening industrial de-
mand for money, 1t was felt. however,
that business will have to expand consid-
erably before the investment market is
affected.
Probably the June record of new mu-
nicipal financing will prove to be the
high point Of the year. Since the end of
that month bonds Of cities and States
have come on to the market in greatly
reduced volume.
According to one statistical authority
the average price of capital rose from
Sal per cent. in 1914 to 7.24 per cent.
in 1921 and now stands at 6.10 per cent.
The same authority is of the opinion that
we are running into a period of easier
money in which. the average bond will
sell on less than a per cent. basis.
Discussing the relative values OF fixed
income securities the Bond Buyer says
Considering the spectacular rise the
bond market has recently enjoyed. 1t is
hard to think of present prices as cheap.
And yet bonds nave advanced very much
less than has the purchasing power OF
the income derived from them. fixed
interest bearing bond is really worth
what II may be exchanged for in COM
modities and its interest yield. is worth
what that interest will buy. Hence II
the purchasing power OF income from
bonds has increased in the last two
wears faster than bonds have advanced
in the quoted market price bonds may be
said to be even cheaper to-day than be-
fore the big market rise commenced"
