stay in Harrisburg they will be the j
guests of the Keystone Motorcycle!

cle club.

The test run to Harrisburg will be
for endurance only. Six stations will j
be established between Altoona and |
HM«"isburg. When the motorcyclists!
leave Altoona. each rider will have a
credit of 1,000 points. At each sta-!
tion. when his machine is inspected.'
points will be deducted for defects!
found, such as engine trouble, faulty j
brakes, etc.. while each break-down of'
a machine will cause a deduction of!
points.
The same plan will be followed out
on the return trip. The time that is
to be consumed between each station
will be specified, and a rider who trav- !
els faster or slower than this speed, 1
will receive demerits.
The cyclist who returns to Altoona
with the greatest number of points
will be adiudged the winner, while the
others will take place according to
their record of points.

Time to
Change Coal.
It's time to change the kind of coal you have been
using when the stove refuses to throw out enough
heat.
Lots of people begin to use a certain grade when
they get married and continue to use the same kind
under all conditions.
There is a big difference in some kinds of coal.
What will give good results in one house will be
very unsatisfactory when you move elsewhere. •
Now instead of blaming the coal, why, try another
kind and you'll find that the stove will work per
fectly.
We will be glad to call and advise you the kind
to use.
