their jobs and carried housewives to

There was a rule that drivers must
peer back of their cars each quarter
block to be sure no prospective pas
sengers were running for the car
and, a company official added, to
make sure no small boys had hitched
rides on the rear. A driver must
ask such urchins to dismount.
Eager for business, the drivers
were to go slowly past hotels, and
arrive at church entrances, or as
near them as possible just as serv-
ices we're over to pick up a maxi
mum load.
Hold your lines tight" was an
order to those who guided the mule
cars on their journeys.
Speeding in or through curves at
full mule-speed was a recklessness
comparable with the most daring
driving of today on the indianapolis
Motor Speedway. Likewise driver
was to proceed carefully through
tunnels, and down grades.
Then, as now, children in the
street were a constant problem. The
driver was directed to assume the
child would run in front of the car
and consequently he must slow
down to pass a youngster.
For passenger convenience, If the
driver saw an obstacle on the track
or a track condition that threatened
derailment, his riders were to dis
embark and walk around the dan
ger point, getting on again when
the car was safely past and still on
the tracks.
Some time when your street car
journey wears heavily on your pa
tience, think of those ancestors who
courageously risked their lives on a
mad dash at a half-trot through the
streets over which your car is roar
ing. 1t may help pass the time.

SALES INCREASE.
is REPORTED BY
MAYTAG Chief
9O5 Per Cent Business Rise
Recorded; Firm Head
Makes Trip.

An increase of 905 per cent in
August sales over the total for the
same month last year reflects the
extent of the national recovery in
the opinion Of F. L. Maytag, chair
man of the board of the washing
machine company bearing his name.
Mr.. Maytag, who is 76, is enthusiast
tic over the recovery that is taking
place nationally and which this sec
ton of the country is feeling par
ticularly.
He recently made trip to In
dianapolis as part of a swing around
the middle western circuit where
meetings are being held to introduce
a new washer to sell at the lowest
price in the history of the company.
1.-THE extent of the recovery is told
in Maytag experience" said Mr..
Maytag. Last April we had an in
crease in business of 1877 per cent
over March. In May we had an in
crease of 82.4 per cent over April,
and in June 1877 per cent over May.
In August there was an increase Of
95.3 per cent. The total increase in
August this year as compared with
August last year in business of the
company was 9058 per cent.
Despite the fact that plants Of
the company are working at full
capacity and working under the
code of President Roosevelt, the
company was $4,000 units behind
orders at the end of August In
August also the company produced
so per cent more units than in any
previous month in the history of
the company and did 40 per cent of
the washer business in the entire
country.
THE confidence that has been
brought is partly due to the NRA
and it will carry farther if there is
full cooperation.
Mr.. Maytag is believer in news
paper advertising. He said his COM
pany uses only newspaper adver-
Using and that it has not missed a
single month in the last ten years
carrying its message to the people
through the newspapers. He said
in that period more than $8,000,000
has been spent in advertising.

If the car ads bore you some brisk

The Importance Of fast. frequent
deliveries to shippers and purchaS-
ing agents is being more and more
appreciated, according to w. L.
Snodgrass, general traffic superin-
tendent for the Indiana railroad sys-
tenn.
Always we'll patronized, the dis
patch freight service of the cleo
trio traction lines comprising the
system is being used more than ever
during the fall season, Mr.. Snod-
grass said.
indianapolis shippers and pur-
chasing agents in the cities on our
lines, he said, ARE able to work
together more efficiently by reason
OF this dispatch freight service. We
render this service on fast pas
Senger schedules. Dispatch freight,
instead of waiting for a freight
car, usually move within the hour,
at passenger speed.
I'VE now are operating in and out
Of Indianapolis, for example. about
ITO cars every twenty-four hours.
To Fl. Wayne. we can move dis
patch freight on any one of thir-
teen fast runs, besides the regular
freight schedule. To Anderson and
Muncie, we can move dispatch
freight on fourteen cars between
a. m. and 1870 p. m.
Eight fast cars each way daily
between indianapolis and Louis
vile, and nine between indianapolis
and Terre Haute, also handle dis
patch freight. When shippers or
purchasing agents require speed,
they need not wait on trucks, steam
trains nor even on our own fast
freight service. The dispatch serv-
ice, on passenger schedules, gives
them prompt deliveries"
This service, Mr.. Snodgrass added,
has been valuable to merchants and
manufacturers maintaining low in
ventories and requiring new ma
terias or merchandise quickly.
