The following letter to the Penbrook

ly, of the Internal Revenue Service,
Danville, Ky.: "I have driven my Vul
can something over 2,000 miles with
out the slightest trouble, and have
found the car very powerful, speedy
and easy riding. The car being hung
low, but with ample road clearance,
I find reduces skiding to a minimum,
making 1 the car very easy to handle
and much less wear on the tires. Vou
will find that the car is everything

Chandler Attracted Many
at the Port Royal Fair
Tl- new ("handler light six has
again demonstrated that it is a ma
chine of the first class, capable of tak
ing any hill at high speed and using
comparatively little gasoline and oil
in accomplishing long trips. Thursday
afternoon, Andrew Redmond, the lo
cal agent, and a party of friends start
ed_for the Port Royal fair, the touring
car weighing less than 3,000 pounds
held to the ground like a veteran twice
its weight and even on the roughest
sections gave the'riders on the rear
seats the impression that these parts
too were in good condition. Some of
the long hills enroute were taken with
ease, Mr. Redmond not even .chang
ing the gear, in several of the Perry
and Juniata county towns, where the
party made short stops, the car was
inspected by many of the residents,
who for the first time viewed a
Chandler. The beautiful lines of the
machine attracted them, the remark
able ability of the machine and its
many Improvements astonished them.
Dozens of persons at the fair viewed
the Chandler and proclaimed for It a
great future.
After leaving the Port Royal fair,
Mr. Redmond took bis party over the
beautiful new stretch of State road,
thirteen miles in length, from Mlfllin
town to Lewlstown. The party spent
the early evening in the latter town
whore the auto was again on exhibi
tion for a short period. Some time
later the trip to the city was made.
One of the most remarkable feats of
the car occurred on the steep hill back
of Speeceville. There another car, of
a popular make, and well known for
its ability on the level, was making a
determined effort to climb the hill
with some speed. The machine start
ed up well but before it had gotten
half way up the Chandler passed it
and kept on going without again see
ing the car until this city was reach
ed.
At Mr. Redmond's place of business
at Third and Boyd streets, the regis
ter showed that 133 miles had been
covered. A glance at the gasoline
gauge showed less than nine gallons
of gasoline had been used.
The Chandler is a popular priced
ear, a number of them having been de
livered hi this city and immediate vi
cinity.

"POTASH ASH PEHLMPTTER"

Glass - stories in the Saturday Even

ablo, lovable partners were first

were "heart-Interest" stories In the

in conserving this hear-lnterest In the
dramatization of the stories that A. 11.

BRIM WINS
THE PITTSBUR9HERS
Republican Candidate Is Making
Speeches Which Attract
Much Attention -
Dr. Martin OS. Brumbaugh paused
in liis campaigning in Pittsburgh yes
terday to make a couple of speeches
of a character, having
lieen invited l>y commercial organiza
tions to address them. He made a
couple of speeches that breathed a
civic spirit compared to which the
pratings of certain Democratic candi
dates sounded like tinkling brass. The
educator showed himself thorouKhly
familiar with the problems of govern
ment and the importance of clean-ups
and his receptions turned into ova
tions.
The candidate went to Pittsburgh
to do some campaigning, and, accom
panied by Chairman \V. J. Christy,
went about the city during the morn
ing. In the afternoon he made the
addresses which won him great com
mendation. and last night continued
his campaign work. To-day he is with
Frank H. McClain on a tour of Beaver
county.
The Pennsylvania Spirit
In the course of one of his speeches
Dr. Bl'umbaugh said:
"We are all Pennsylvanians. Some
of us, when we leave the State and
meet people of other communities, do
not confess with any degree of en
thusiasm, or any degree of pride, the
fact that we are Pennsylvanians.
"I want to put into the hearts and
consciences of the manhood of this
State, that wherever yon go you
should stand up for your State. It is
a good State and has a record you
can be proud of; and if we men of
to-day live as clean, capable, substan
tial lives as our fathers and grand
fathers lived in Pennsylvania, we,
too, can write chapters of history for
this great State that our children can
cite with pride."
In another speech he said in part:
"We are beginning to find in this
country that when a man stands for
something in a splendid way, no mat
ter what that something is, provided
it is only a clean, honorable thing,
that man is worth while.
"It is the man who does not stand
vip. who does not show his colors, who
does not get into the. thick of the
light, who shrinks into the corners
and acts the part of a coward, who is
unworthy of American citizenship.
"As a school teacher I have been
interested for a number of years in
two problems. The business of the
school as an institution of our Ameri
can democracy is to train our people
to live together, to give them com
mon knowledge with which to think
and plan and live and legislate to
gether. The very essence of a dem
ocracy should be a common fund of
knowledge with which to think and
understand."
"There is no more important prob
lem facing the great State of Penn
sylvania to-day than the problem of
vocatlonalizing her public school sys
tem, so that every boy and every girl
that goes out of the public school into
the great social and industrial life of
the Commonwealth shall go out
trained to do in a definite way some
one good thing for society."
Motoring Public Awaits
Cadillac Announcement
The fact that the Cadillac Motor
Car Company has not yet made an
nouncement of its new product is
probably causing more comment and
arousing wider-spread interest than
I anything that has taken place in the
motor industry for some time.
"What is the Cadillac going to bring
out?" has become the question most
often asked by manufacturers, deal
ers and the automobile public in gen
eral. Guesses without number have
been made. They have run the whole
gamut of possibility, but nothing has
come from an official source to con
firm any of the conjectures.
That the interest displayed does not
arise wholly from curiosity is shown
in the brief statement of Cadillac Sales
Manager Howard regarding orders al
ready booked for the forthcoming
product.
"In spite of the fact that we have
made no announcement of our plans,"'
said Mr. Howard, "our dealers have
now on hand more than 2,000 orders I
for the new car."
As usual, the interest concerning
the Cadillac is not confined to present
Cadillac owners, but permeates all
circles of dealers and motorists In
general. It has been evident for years
that the public regards the annual
Cadillac announcement of the utmost
significance. This is undoubtedly due
partially to the fact that the Cadillac
Company is the largest producer of
high-grude cars, and to the further
fact that its productions exert a far
reaching influence on the Industry.
The first Cadillac "Thirty" placed a
car of high quality on the market at a
price theretofore unprecedented. The
Cadillac again led the field in the
adoption of electricity for starting and
lighting, and Its use of the same has
led to similar designs by a number of
other msnufartureres. In th» circum
stances. the Interest In the forthcom
ing iinnouncement concerning the
new Cadillac, In which striking Inno
vations and developments are prom
ised. Is not to be wondered at.

Affection For Old Love Terminates
in Contract as Distributor
For New Hupp
B. C. Knsminger closed negotiations
this week with the Hupp Motor Car
Company, of Detroit, to represent them
as distributor for twenty-two counties
in this state. The Hupmobile was a
popular seller with Mr. Knsminger
when he had the agency for several
years. Hut a change In the factory
selling districts placed this territory
in with that of the Neighbors Motor
Car Company at Cleveland, Ohio. A
branch office was then established in
Harrisbtirg. Negotiations have been
pending some time recently for a dif
ferent method of distribution for this
section of the state and ihe future
arrangement provides for twenty-two
counties under the jurisdiction of K. C.
Knsminger. By this method Harris
burg continues to be the distributing
center for Hupmobiles, with display
rooms at Third and Cumberland
streets. And subdealers in the various
counties will be continued and others
receive their appointment through Mr.
Knsminger. Consequently, Mr. Kns
minger under the new contract deals
direct with factory and is not a sub
dealer through any other agency.
Reports from Mr. Harris, the com
mercial manager of the Hupp Motor
Car Company, predict a bigger and
better business year than last. A new
office building is under process of con
struction at the factory in Detroit
which also provides dining room and
other modern conveniences for the
comfort of the employes.

hilariously tunny musical comedy.

who wear them, all go to make "Mutt

HAGUE PEACE
CONFERENCE
First Meeting Proposed by the
Czar of Russia Sixteen
Years Ago
About sixteen years ago the Czar of
Russia addressed a rescript to the na
tions inviting them to an international
discussion on a question of ways and
means which would assure a durable
peace for all peoples of the world. The
result of this was the first peace con
ference at The Hague during the fol
lowing year. At a convention, which
was held if few months after this con
ference, was created the Hague Tri
bunal, causing each of the nations iu
session to nominate for six years rep
resentative members of a permanent
court of arbitration, the main duties
of which are to call the attention of
prospective belligerents to the exist
ence of a peaceful method of settling
their differences. The second peace
conference was attended by represen
tatives of forty-four nations and met
at The Hague about seven years ago.
At this meeting was settled many
questions of international law.
