CARSON SEES NEW ERA ON WHEELS
 AS RESULT OF AUTO INDUSTRIES


 ssslsa Lasally ealr by The HsFslal,
 AlhanN, N, T., June 29,-RAgeF w,
 nson was today asked what is the
 fsstssi factor with which the hank
 manufacturer, and merchant must
 eson during the next go years, He
 enee answered, ''aut0mahiles," His 1mplele statement is as fellows,
 We an marvel at the great growth
 the automobile industry, the eap'
 invested, the men employed, and
 auxiliary lines which have deNel= ped on account pf automobiles, Some
 ns try to figure what this capital ad these men would he doing today If r were not for automobiles many more homes there would he=- now much more railroad mileage, etc, Very few, however have realized that aptmahiles are entirely changing the iVnaamental character of our children Hnd this in turn may revolutioniEe many industries,
 When We were children a tenrmile drive was considerable trip, A hundred and fifty miles was a great tourney for which we would prepare
 
 eifd that far until We were grown up, To-day, however. the situation is very different. Young children will go q hundred and fifty miles for Sunday drive. Our young people use automobiles to go ta the store, and to go ta church, II has become ne- esFsity, We are raising q generation which will actually work and play on wheels,
 Aids some. Harms others.
 This cannot help but greatly de- vslop certain industrcs and harm ofh- ers Al present the automobile is greatly helping the building industry because of tho millions of people nov Ing from the cities to the suburbs and country, After. however, this exodus has heen completed, the building in- dugtry will fall flat, Why?- because instead Of young married couple now saving for q little home-they fa"e for a car--or rather they buy a car on credit. Less money will be spent upon clothing than otherwise would and a different kind Of cloth inc will be in demand. New diseases will develop and a change in diet will he necessary. A generation on wheels must cat much more fruit and fresh vegetables than generation which walks
 Every business man should study this problem and ask himself how his business will be effected when a gen eration lives which almost never walks. The road builders will greatly beneht; but the shoe dealers must suffer. With a. given population. less is produced by generation on wheels than by a former generation which did not know the automobiles If less is produced, there will be less to divide. This means that many people must go without other things if they insist on having automobiles. and my guess is that they will SO insist.

negro clog group who gave Dixie
or the Railroad" The girls were in
blackface and their costumes repre-
scented the allegorical negro. The
Virginia Reel presented by a group
reminded the onlookers of the days
when belle and beau danced to the
sound of the flute and fiddle while
the Minuet, a colonial dance, took
the audience back to the days of '76
when courtsies low and graceful
bows were the style. The last num-
Der executed was Natural Rhythms'
cleverly staged by twelve girls. They
literally brought down the house as
these modern nymphs went through
the dance with grace. The finale was
a grand march led by Bertha Nc
Dowell and Anna Siskind followed
by the performers.
All the dances were taught the
girls by Miss kirkpatrick to whom
too much credit cannot be given for
the success Of last nights affair. This
the first exhibition given under
her direction at the high school. She
also coached the championship bas-
ketball team during the past season.
