Boat Not Late, Just
Little Bit Delayed

At ten minutes past four a crowd
gathered in the waiting room at
Cortlandt street, but the boat that
was scheduled to leave two minutes
later had not yet appeared. At 4:15
the situation remained unchanged.
Finally passenger approached
the ticket chopper and questioned
him.
"Isn't there train boat at 4 liz ?'
"Yes"-punching an incoming
travellers ticket.
81 haven't missed it, have I?"
he had arrived at exactly 4:12
and wanted to be sure.
Nope business Of punching
another ticket.
"Then it hasn't arrived yet?"
"Nope"-three more tickets filled
with holes.
"Must be few minutes late, eh ?"
Nope snap snap punch =
punch.
"Well, it's 4:1s now, do you mean
to say it isn't late 2"
"Sure, she amt never late. Just
a little delayed in arriving" And
the passenger went away, wondering
how a boat that hadn't arrived at
the time it should be leaving could
be anything but late.-New York

FOOD FOR CHILDREN WHO
TRAVEL

Many times, and especially during
the summer months. mothers are
forced to take their children on trips
with them. During these trips, the
parent is forced to contend with that
ever-present and serious problem OF
food for the child.
AS in almost every other case, the
chief source Of worry, during these
periods. is the milk supply, its source,
its purity and its food value. It Is
not always convenient to get market
milk Of dependable quality for, in many
sections of the country, adequate IA
cilities for it's care are not provided.
To meet the needs of mothers In these
trying situations science has provided
q form of milk, conveniently carried
and easily prepared. The cans are in
two sizes, the one containing six
ounces an. the other sixteen.
. Evaporated milk is just pure cows
milk with more than half of the water
removed None Of its food value Is
lessened; in fact its digestibility Is
improved. It is, easily mixed with wa
ter and is, undoubtedly, the most prac-
teal form Of milk for use as food for
children. Some of the country's lead
ing pediatricians recommend It's use.

year the engine size was 122 Gu. in,
the winning speed was 1O1.13 miles

sThe bare principles involved In

1.-THE rapid consumption OF air IL

StreamIine Helps
Reduction of wind resistance
through proper streamlining Of the
body and it's accessories involves
the same aerodynamic principles
that are met In airplane design.
Streamline contours admit of RAJ

far toward cutting down the para
site drag at high speeds.
1.-THE two-litre engine, which was

advantages over it's three-litre pre-
decessor. To it were applied for the
first time the supereharger, the
balloon tire. and the one-man body.
THE supercharger increased the
rate of air consumption. the low
pressure tire reduced the rolling
resistance and assisted the springs.
and the narrow bod lowered both
the wind resistance and the weight,
These changes were all funda-

refinements in them.

PEERLESS 5 ALE
DOUBLES

Predictions that 1926 would see
the sale of Peerless cars doubled
viii be more than fulfilled If the
same pace set in the first month Of
the year is maintained. a report
just issued by the Peerless Motor
Car Corporation reveals. Sales for
january were approximately 2S5
per cent larger than for January,
1926.
Even this record is expected to
be bettered in February as three
new body styles in the popular
priced Peerless six-S0 model have
been introduced since the start Of
the show season and orders for
these will be filled during the next
month.
The six-S0 two-door fiye-passengcr
sedan was introduced at the New
York automobile show. It jumped
into immediate popularity and the
factory has been as rushed to fill
orders for this body style as well
as for the better known four4docI
sedan which was shown in Noveills
Der, 1925, when the new Peerless
model was first announced.
At the Chicago Automobile Show
two open models, the roadster ami
sport phaeton, we're introduced.
The smart lines, distinctive color
and the proved performance of the
six-S0 motor Immediately won a
following for these cars. These
open models which are credited
with possessing an attractiveness oe
appearance much above that of TIE
usual roadster of their price class,
are I'm unusually slleavy demand By
the younger people now and it is
expected that. sales of these models
win greatly boost Peerless business
during the year.
