Hotel in Miami
Offers Refund if
Mercury Hits 90

MIAMI, Fla, May 22.-The
Miami News Bureau reports
that one Miami hotel has just
issued a summertime challenge
to the weather man-and if
the hotel loses, the summer
visitors win. This is the Hotel
Patricia, in Miami, of which
Peter L. Niles is managing di-
rector.
IF at any time between
April ! and November 3d. Mr..
Niles said in issuing his chal-
lenge, the temperature in
Miami reaches 80 degrees, the
Hotel Patricia will refund to its
guests the amount of room
charges for any and all such
days that the temperature
reaches 80 degrees
But summer vacationers at the
hotel can't expect to get much
money back. Weather records
for the last so years show Miami
averages only six days a year
in which the mercury climbs
to 80 degrees. -,.-,-.

Glare is the No. enemy Of the
millions of motorists who drive at
night and is an increasingly i'm
portant factor in the highway
fatality toll, 4 Nationwide survey
by the American Automobile Asso-
citation has disclosed.
A survey by the AAA corps of
road reporters, has shown three
principal deficiencies that have a
far-reaching effect on public safety
on the highways. These are:
l. That automobile headlighting
long inadequate, has not nearly
kept pace in safety and efficiency
with other automotive improve
ments.
2. That too many car drivers are
lax in dimming their lights for
other users of the highway, and;
3. That the hazards of night time
driving are greatly increased by the
large number Of cars with lights
incorrectly adjusted or focused, O,
with one or more lights BACKED out

2. Glare can be dangerous to the
man in front. as you follow; give
him the low beam, too.
8. Guide yourself by the center
line or the side of the road, avoid
ing direct glances into blazing
headlights.
4. Be sure by frequent checking
that your lights, front and rear
are working properly and that the
headlights are correctly focused.
5. Never drive knowingly with one
light. Have it fixed Immediately.

COLUMBIA, S. c., May 22-With

scheduled. the popular Atlantic
beach resort of Myrtle Beach plans
to prove itself ideal for summer va
cationists as well as for other sea-

The State expects to complete

They've got an awful lot OF
coffee in Brazil-snd most of il
flnds its way to Santos. But you
have only small part Of the pic
ture if you think of this busy Bra
lillian metropolis as an endless
chain of warehouses crammed to
the rafters with bullying bags OF
coffee.
Few North American vacationists
are aware of it yet, but Santos also
happens to be one Of the swankiest
seaside resorts south of the Equator
with de luxe hotels, lavish night
clubs and miles of sandy beaches

Mild Winters, .,..
Santos, straddling the line of de-
narcation between the tropics and
the south temperate zone, has a
climate similar to southern Flori-
da's. During the summer season.
from nlid-December to the middle
of March-Brazilian families flock
to the resort. When June and July
roll around, they again head for
Santos to enjoy its mild winters.
A first glimpse Of Santos might
confirm your worst suspicious. There
are the huge, drab warehouses in
which more than 100000 bags
of coffee can be stored. Edging the
four mile long docks. they shut off
from view the enormous harbor
filled with vessels from every nation.
With a turn of corner. the scene
radically changes to city of flow
erine parks. Portuguese colonial
architecture and narrow, twisting
streets. The slow tempo of pedes-

simple clothes of the people and
the scarcity Of modern emporiums

Old Locomotives to Run
Again at Railroad Fair

The foresight of Peter Cooper, who
developed the B. Il O.'s first steam
locomotive in 1929, will be portrayed
in his famous Tom Thumb engine.
Cooper set up q small boiler and a
diminutive coal-burning steam en-
CINE on q fiat car. Then on August
70. 1880, he ran over the Is miles OF
track between Baltimore and ELI
colts Mills, Nd, at IA miles per hour
while pushing q small car carrying
"A passengers. This trial run marked
the first time in history that pas
sengers were carried over rails by
steam power.
Lost Race to Horse.
The Tom Thumb is the same loco
motive which a few days later &C
cepted the challenge to race a horse
drawn railroad car. In this case the
old gray mare proved the stronger,
winning out when the Tom Thumb
encountered mechanical difficulties.
Appropriately enough, the horse car
which bested the Tom Thumb also
will be on display at the railroad
fair.
A pageant entitled wheels A-Roll-
ing" will review the entire history OF
railroading in this country. To be
staged in a special amphitheater
now being rushed to completion on
the fair grounds at Twenty-fifth
street, Wheels A-Rolling" will have
a cast Of $50 actors and a great array
of colorful stage properties. Almost
every form of transportation from
the Indian travels, the stage coach
of Colonial days. the dinky little
contraptions that marked the birth
Of railroading, down to the stream
lined railroad juggernauts of today,
will be seen in action.
Scheduled to last an hour and a
quarter, the pageant will be pre-
sented twice every afternoon and
twice every night on q stage $50
feet wide and 100 feet deep.
Stretching across the stage will be
