GETS
FIRST MOTOR
Trucks
Garden Spot Of the World
Sees March Of Progress
in offing

That the motor truck has become
a worldwide necessity was once
proven when the town corporation
Of Hamilton, Bermuda, recently
placed in service two Mack trucks,
bumper and road sprinkler.
This fact is significant inasmuch
as Bermuda, the so-called garden
spot Of the world, has, until the
present time, resisted the invasion
Of self-propelled vehicles.
Bermuda's one great industry is
the entertainment of the thousands
of tourists who flock annually to
this beautiful group Of islands, there
to relax from the strain and tur.
MOL of the noisy hustle of the
cities. For years, these people
have depended upon horses and
bicycles as the only means of trans.
portation, and it has long been
the proud boast Of the natives that
the calm which pervades the is
lands has never been shattered

dition nor sentiment, and the town
officials of Hamilton have reached
the conclusion that. with the ever
increasing flow Of visitors, the old
horse-drawn equipment is no longer
adequate either to settle the dust
on the many beautiful drives. or
to keep them in repair. Therefore.
the order for two motor trucks was
placed.
That the natives have accepted.

inroad upon their almost proven.

A. A. A. To ADOPT
NEW WINTER
PLANS
Brake and Headlight Testing
Will Be Among Features
Of Year

With the closing Of the normal
touring season, excepting resort
points throughout the country
where touring will. be on greater
scale than during any previous
winter, the American Automobile
Association will direct its attention
toward motor problems in connec-
ton with city driving, according to
Ernest N. Smith, general manager
OF the A. A. A., in statement nere
today.
The A. A. A.. it is announced,
has under consideration a number
OF important plans for the sinpli-
fication and safety Of winter mo-
tortng around the city and plans to
put behind the winter movement
the same forethought and effort
which it expended in an effort to
improve highway, touring and
travel conditions this past summer.
The plans, Mr.. Smith announces,
include some new developments
along the lines of brake and head
light testing, since this sort of safe
ty work is considered of greatest
importance during the season Of
the year when daylight is limited
dangerous condition large part
Of the time. An effort is being
made to develop tests that will
not only save the car owner the
customary Inconvenience of sub
hitting to brake and headlight in
spection, but save the club the ex-
cessive expense per examination
which now attaches to such work.
THE A. A. A. does not wish to
engage in spasmodic efforts to
curb the hazards of winter driving
In the city," Mr.. Smith says. ''lt
is highly desirable, therefore, that
the cost Of testing be such as to
make it possible to cover the city
In big way when the work Is
| undertaken.
"Since increased membership is
one way of financing such civic
projects our logical step at this
time is to continue our drive for
more members, thus assuring us of
greater support for our future
plans"

Il is no longer a question of, shall !
or shall I not advertise? but simply
a question of to what extent and in
what way shall l advertise?
Circulars, novelties, calendars, di-
rect mail, all have their appeal, but
when all is said and done and when re-
suits are compared with the cost the
merchant realizes that the local paper
is the best and cheapest method of
letting the buying public know what
he has to sell.
It is the everlasting cry of the small
town merchant, ooh, 1 have been here
for years and everybody knows me-"
Yes, everybody knows that church
starts at eleven o'clock on Sunday
mornings, but they ring the bell at
1880 just the same. Everybody

new families come into town frequent
ly during the year. They must trade
somewhere and the local paper is in
variably their guide. Old patrons
are induced to increase their pur-
chases thru the appeal of the printed
page.

The Golden Rule dinner will launch
cooperation for Golden Rule Sunday,

GOLDEN RULE DINNER
To Be Served At Hotel Manhat-
tan Next Tuesday.

One of the most unique dinners
ever given in this country will be the
Golden Rule Dinner on November II,
at the Manhattan Hotel.
The list of invited guests is large
one, the dinner is an important event
and the guests include leaders in all
activities from Oakland and other
parts of the county, yet the dinner
will be one of the simplest ever given
in this county. The meal will be
served at bare, plain tables, the food
will be placed on tin plates, coffee
will be served in tin cups made by
orphans from condensed milk cans.
Instead of beautiful candelabra and
blazing electric lights, the only illum-
ination will be from candles.
Simplicity, the feature of the meal,
is to typify the plain life of the or
phans under care of the Near East Re-
lief, which is giving the dinner, as
preliminary to Golden Rule Sunday, on
December 7th. Golden Rule Sunday is
a day on which Maryland, with other
states of America, and on which
America with twenty other nations
will gather around one common table,
the object being to make a sacrifcial
offering for the orphans, not just the

HIGHER AIMS.

It is fine thing to work energet-
ically for success in ones occupation.
Ambition is one of the greatest forces
for promoting human progress. But
there are some things in existence
other than money making. A person
who puts his whole and entire thought
on such aims is going to miss some
thing that he needs both for sue
cess in his calling and for his own de-
velopment.
The human mind was not built to
work unremittingly along any one
line. A man might say that he could
accomplish more for his success if he
would cut down his hours of sleep,
work both nights and days. But when
he tries to do that he soon finds that
his mind has lost its keen edge. He
can not accomplish as much as if he
gave a reasonable number of hours
to the recreating power of sleep.
So it is in regard to certain ac-
LlNIIlSS OulSluS Ol one OWL Calling.
A man who devotes his thought so I'M
remittingly to his work that he ne
elects his home cares will have I'M
satisfactory family relations. In the
end he will not accomplish so much
even in his occupation, as if he had
cultivated happy and useful home
as a secure foundation for his labors.
So it is in regard to the enterprises
of the community. If we devote our
selves so necessarily to our occupation
with no thought for the country and
state, the moral and spiritual progress
of the people will lag behind. We
shall all suffer from the low state of
community development.
Men and women accomplish more
in the long run, when they set apart a
certain portion of their energy and
interest to the good causes of the COM
munity, to the growth and expansion
of their own personal ties, and to
friendship, social relations and acts of
kindly interest. All these things help
people to grow broader and bigger
and in the end, as a usual thing, more
successful in their occupations.

VETERANS, APPLY FOR
YOUR BONUS.

World War Veterans who delay
making application for Soldiers Bon
us are doing an injustice to them
selves and their dependents, and run
ming risk of losing part of their
bonus.
There are 100000 veterans entitled
to the bonus. Less than 0ne-third o.
them have applieJ-only 100000 so
far.
Each soldier is entitled to bonus
consisting of a twenty-year endow-
ment insurance policy, the amount
being based upon the length of his
service. The sum of his bonus, with
interest at four per cent, will be paid
to him 20 years from now, if he is
alive. If he dies in the meantime,
the money will go to his dependents
as an insurance payment.
But the amount of insurance varies.
Take the case of a soldier entitled to
the maximum bonus figure of 1925.
If he dies before filing his applica-
ton, his widow, children or other de-
pendents will get only this 1925, paid
in ten quarterly installments of S62.-
so each.
If the same soldier had fled his
bonus application before dying, his
widow, children OF other dependents
would receiye 81 40 in ono ,,o1,,,o,,+
in cash.
Most of these men will be alive
twenty years from now. Then the
surviving veteran will receive a hand
some sum in cash. The full service
veteran-the man who served 500
days or over-will receive not 1925,
but $1,000 in real money, for his basic
bonus is compounded at four per cent
interest.
Moreover, his insurance certificate,
beginning two years from now, has a
loan value at the banks.
This insurance certificate, it must
be understood, costs the soldier moth
ing. 1t is a gift from the Govern
ment. All he has to do is to apply for
it.
If any veteran is not sufficiently in
terested himself to apply for his bo-
nus, his father, mother, sister or wife
and children should see that he makes
application.
