ANDREW REDMOND Distributor Third and Hamilton Sts., Harrisburg Bell 2133 Dial 4616 SATURDAY EVENING, mud and in many cases a quagmire, will prove an index to Apperson value. Without any further comment here with is quoted from a letter received from W. A. Pritchard, of Detroit, de scribing his expedience with his Ap person Anniversary Tourster, in a re cent drive through Ohio and Indiana: "I never realised fully how fine a car I had or how good a car an Ap person really is until my recent drlVe away in my new job from Kokomo to Detroit. "We left Kokomo. as you may know, on Thursday afternoon rather late, in my new Apperson Anniversary Tourster and just lasted until we got to Fort Wayne where we stayed over night. •In the morning when we awoke we discovered that it had been pouring all night long. I am frank to admit that it was with considerable trepidation that we started across Indiana and Ohio, knowing as we did the condi tions of the roads. As you probably know, many of the Indiana and mqst of the Ohio roads that we cover arc very fair going during fair weather, but after a heavy downpour they are a combination of ordinary country mud and clay that in many places develop into a quagmire. "I have driven cars for some years. I have hit hog-back roads, I have hit ordinary country roads, but I must say that I never struck going as difficult as that which we struck between Fort Wayne and Detroit. "For example, there was one stretch particularly, practically 86 miles, with deep ditches on the side, mud that was never less than six inches deep, with the rain coming down in sheets and making the roads nothing but a pond. "Beyond that -we hit one stretch of seven miles where the mud was so deep that the car which was .going through in front of us with four chains on it, left no impress whatever. In other words, it was Just a sea of clay and water. "The Apperson walked through it as though it were running over a boule vard almost. On several occasions I had to set my brakes, yet I never had a skid. Through it all I very seldom had to put the car in second and never had to put it in low. "You hear of flexibility on tho city boulevards where you slow your car down to four miles an hour and go ahead in high, but the joy of this ride to me was the fact that some times we were going as slow aa five miles an hour, at other times we were run ning along at 23 or 24 miles an hour and yet it was all done in high."

EDLRFUBBfCTRG FIND BAG OF BONES IN HOTEL Had Been Waiting a Claimant There For Almost Four Years By Associated Press. New York, June 28. A brown leather bag filled with human bones was found last night in checking room of the Mills Hotel here. According to the police the bag was checked in the hotel in November, 1915, and has been awaiting a claimant since then. The bones include the skull of a man about 40 years old. Some of them appeared to have been cut with a saw which gave rise to the theory that they may have been the property of a medical student. Dr. George Hohmann, assistant medical examiner declared the bones were the relics of a murder. "They show every indication that a murder has been committed," he said, "because of the way they are mutilated." The leather case in which the bones were found bore the blurred initials I. N. A." Each 'bone was wrapped separately in pages of a New York newspaper bearing the dates of Sunday, Septem ber 12. 1915, and Monday September 27, 1915.
