Cameron St. ■ SATURDAY EVENING, Prosperity Evident in Motor Car Industry If ther« was any doubt as to the oontlnued or return of prosperity— whichever you prefer to call It—a visit to Lapsing, and especially to that part of the Michigan city which de pend* for its sustenance on the big Reo automobile plants, would dispel It The Reo plants already cover 26 [ acres of ground, and thought addl [ tions are being made on all side* of that SS aero*. As a matter of fact they are being made on three aides— the other aide of the street fronting on the main thoroughfare. Those who have passed through Lansing on the Michigan Central will remember the familiar testing track between the Reo main building and the railroad. That track was at one time one of the show features of the city, but the system of testing automo biles has changed, and during tho past two years It has been used mostly for a baseball park. On that piece of ground Is now being greeted an Im portant addition to the Reo machine shop. At the other end of the Reo factory, and fronting In the same street, still another big addition is being built, this time to add to the assembling de partment, body building, body trim ming, painting, etc. For as every one knows (having read In Reo ads), Reo builds every part of their auto mobile, from the raw materials to the last touch of equipment. And If this Is not sufficient to prove the wonderfully prosperous condition that exists and the wonderful growth of the Reo, a tour around the factory to the rear discloses still greater oper ations under way. Here a tract of 4 H acres—not floor sf>ace, but ground space mind you— shows a feverish activity. A great gang of men busy breaking ground and starting foundations for a mam moth plant that will cover thlß 4H acres, which will be utilized for the manufacture of Reo Motor trucks. That the motor truck has finally come Into its own with a vengeance Is borne in upon one when he looks upon this vast expanse of ground and the gangs of men that are rushing work on this big plant. "We are more than 200 trucks be hind orders at this moment," saysi Sales Manager Rueshcaw, "and while that does not sound big when speak ing of touring cars. It does seem so [when applied to trucks.

Reoin Greater Demand Than Ever « of price-slashing: by certain manufacturers in their frenzied efforts to secure business, the Reo enjoys the distinction of being in greater demand than ever before. Fifty per cent, oversise in all vital parts and no skimping or Quality or sife, and the Reo's reputation for low up-keep cost and wonderful consistency of performance, has put Heo in a class with two or three other makes that are practically im mune from competition.

MOTOR TOUR ON CAPE COD T ({ T I>m tummamtOm \ im(I A —— ] Unexcelled roads, attractive scenery, i the old memories that still permeate l the Interesting towns, along the route, I and last, but not least, the thoroughly | satisfactory hotel accommodations, I combine to render a trip over Cape l Cod one of the most enjoyable that I could be taken. Our route covers less | than 300 miles from Providence, the j suggested starting point, to the finish | of the trip at Boston, j Having made the pleasant citv of i Providence. R. 1., the logical night's stopping place, an early start is sug ; gested in order to reach Fairhaven for lunch. We cross over to East Provi dence. the route passing through Sekonk. Barneyvllle and Swansea Cen ter and crossing the long bridge over the Taunton river to Fall river The exit from Fall river leads along the causeway across Watuppa Pond to vVestport Factory and New Bedford, and over the bridge to Fairhaven. a handsome residential town thirty-five IS v. Prov l<lence, and notable as { the birthplace of the late H. H. Rogers. I During his lifetime, Mr. Rogers pre [ sented several beautiful buildings to I his home town, including the very fine | Unitarian Church. For the next twenty miles the route follows the famous Buzzards Bay coast and affords many engaging glimpses of the water and some splendid marine views across the Bay. Marlon is only one of the many charming and allur ing summer resorts we pass through as we circle the bay to the town of Buz zards Bay, from which the new Cape Cod Canal cuts across the Isthmus to Sagamore. Crossing the canal by the fine, new bridge, the route passes near "Gray Gables," the seaside home of the late President Cleveland, and runs south the coast through Monument Beach and North Falmouth to Fal mouth. This spot, thirty-nine miles from Fairhaven and seventy-four miles from Providence, is an ideal stopping place and the center for several de lightful short trips and excursions. Eastward from Falmouth the route follows closely the southern coast of the Cape and passes in turn the queerly named villages. Waquolt, Quashnet and Santult. whence a pretty run may be made to Cotuit and back by Bay View Road to Marston's Mills. Ostervllle, Centerville. a pleasant resort, and Craigvllle are passed to Hyannis and the road traverses a succession of in teresting seaside villages and open hreezy country to Chatham, the most easterly Doint on the route. Hereafter the road runs north by Pleasant Pay to Orleans, whence the narrow, last strip of the Cape is tra versed over a perfect road through Eastham and Brook Village to Well fleet. near which is erected one of the most powerful "wireless" stations in Uie world. A mileage of sixty-one from Falmouth suggests this snot as the night's stop, leaving for the next day a run of twenty-nine miles to the most "ortherly point on tho Cape, throurh the rural villages of Truro and North Truro, arriving in time for lunch at historic ProvlncetowTi The afternoon- may be pleasantlv spent wandering over this quaint old town, which was the first landing plac» of the Pilgrim fathers on this conti nent. A wonderful view of the Cape is to be had from the top of the Pilgrim Tower, which was erected a few vears ago to commemorate the slenlng of the j compact on board the "Mayflower/* which provided the form of govern ment for the new colony. The gray-haired gua'rdian of the ! tower, with a reverence one might ex > pect of the attendants at one of the great cathedrals In Europe, points out the places of Interest as the landscape t Is spread like a may before one's eyes. Leaving Provlncetown, return to i Wellfleet and thence to Orleans where | a right turn leads along the north ' coast of the Cape. The road, rlrclinp ; the southern shore of the splendid bay | runs through East Brewster. Brewster and Dennis, finely located on the bluffs ! overlooking the broad waters of Cape . Cod Bay. to Yarmouth. Cumniaouid and j Barnstable. After passing Sandwich ; the canal Is crossed In a northerly di rection at Sacamore and the road con ] tin ues through Manomet to that city of historic memories. Plymouth, sixty-five | miles from Wellfleet. . After the run over Cape Cod, Ply , mouth would provide a pleasant resting J place for several days with much of Interest to see, including Plymouth Rock, should the motorist have suf j ficent time at his command. After leaving Plymouth, the route (traverses Kingston. Duxbury, Marsh-' ! field and Scltuate Center. At Cohasset, a pleasant side run may be made to j Nantasket and along the narrow isth j mus to Hull, returning to the main ( route at Hingham. From Hlngham the | picturesque south shore of Boston Bay |is followed and the city entered through Its suburbs. Qulncy, East Mil ! ton. Lower Mills and by Blue Hill ; Avenue, making a mileage of fortv | eight from Plymouth and completing I 276 for the whole trip to Boston.

COWDEN & COMPANY Ninth, Herr and Cumberland Streets JULY 17, 1915. Overland in An Overland in Place of on a Broncho William F. Cody, known the world . over as "Buffalo Bill," has deserted the broncho for the automobile. He re cently purchased an Overland touring car and is now seldom seen except at the wheel of his favorite machine. He frequently uses the car for jumps from town to town when traveling- with the Wild West Show, of whtch he is the leader. In referring to his love for motor ing, the famous scout draws an in teresting comparison between the Overland "Six" and the old overland stage, which is now one of the proper ties of his show, and which was fin ished in 1865 and put in service be tween Dodge City, Kansas, and St. Joe, Missouri. "Fifty years ago," he states, "I acted as sort of advance scout for this stage. My duty was to keep a sharp look-out for the Indians and bad men of that time. The best speed we ever made was seven miles a.n hour and our total Journey in a day's travel never exceeded 60 miles. "Today," he continued, "I can hop into my Overland car and with good roads ahead and the speed officers out of sight, I'll cover the distance in an hour. Times certainly have changed, l»Jt they have changed for better things." New Shock Absorbers Featured For Ford Cars The Hassler shock absorber Is being Introduced in this territory by L. M. Barrett, who has opened headquarters at the Central Garage, 334 Chestnut street. The main advantages claimed for this shock absorber, among other things, are four springs, larger than on other devices, for Ford cars, yet have softness and ease of action. The double-acting lever construction keeps down the "toss" or "upthrow" and pre vents the "whipping about" and side sway of the car on an undulating road. These absorbers may be applied in a few hours by anyone familiar with automobiles. They ar" so constructed that no cutting or drilling is neces sary. Despite excessive war duties, motor cars are enjoying a record sale In Canada, according to W. S. Smith, of the Automobile & Supply Com pany, Toronto dealers for Dodge Brothers. "American automobiles wer assessed 35 per cent, duty pre vious to the European war," saya Mr. Smith, "but Canadian buyers are now required to pay 42 1 ,4 per cent. duty. In the face of this tremendous excess cost, our sales have actually Increased since the start of the war. Dodge Brothers' cars at $l,lOO In Canada have ten buyers for every single car that we can secure. Dealers In every section of the Dominion report the same excellent condition of business. The prosperity Is due in great meas ure to the large war orders placed with Canadian firms, but crops have also been heavy this year, and the farmer is again proving our one best customer."
