State News in a Brief Form

At

VACATION AT HOME. a recent party the chief topic

was that of vacation. Every one was telling of glowing plans for a trip here, a visit there, or a summer outing elsewhere. One woman who has a family, said she was going to stay at home, aa she expected to be more comfortable there than elsewhere. She said she has taken down all her winter curtains and draperies. She has put away all her winter bric-a-brac, and has put all the fancy pieces of furniture in the attic. The other furniture she has covered with light-colored cretonne. This of course gives the house a "summery" look and makes less to be cared for on cleaning day. She is using crex rugs all over tne house instead of the heavy brussels ones. Each morning the windows are closed tight and the shades drawn down to keep out the sun. In tne evening the windows and doors are thrown open. The summer problem with children is one that vexes many a mother, and this plan of one woman might be a good one for others to follow.

', At a meeting of the Association of Western Railways held in Detroit last week, the matter of car equipment and shortages of cars was discussed and resolutions were passed in which an appeal is made to both railroads and shippers to take a hand in the campaign to reduce future car shortages to a minimum. Superintendent McCullough said this morning that the resolutions affected the shippers in a more direct way than the railroad and that no copy of the resolutions had been received at the P., C, C. and St. L. railway offices. Local shippers in general, have commodities of a bulky nature and because of that fact not much trouble is experienced at the Richmond freight depot. According to the resolution, statistics show that a great waste of car supply is due to the shippers not always utilizing the full capacity but often load the car only to the mini-

mum icijuiicu laiuuau laiiuo. it ia set out further that in order to cut down operating costs to a minimum the freight cars wherever practicable should be loaded to the maximum capacity. "

REPORT ABOUT CAR

COMPANY

UNFOUNDED

-V (Palladium Special) HAGERSTOWN, Ind., July 2. The rumor' that the Hagerstown Light Inspection car company intended moving its factories from this place appears to be unfounded. It Is believed that the report started because of the delay of the coMWln commencing work on its new factory. This work was to have started about three weeks ago. Harley Teeter, superintendent of the plant, says that work on the new factory will start immediately. The company has had considerable trouble In securing workmen recently. On account of increased business, the plant is now running a night force.

PENNSY COMPANY HAS NO SECRETS

That newspapermen will be treated cordially and as generously as the policy of the company will permit was Implied by Superintendent McCullough of the Pennsylvania railroad company, this morning. "Reporters will be welcomed at the offices." he said, "and will be furnished with any news which we can make public. The company has no secrets but as in the case of a private citizen it has business which cannot be published and will not until at such a time it will be deemed correct to give it to the public. Occasionally we are asked questions regarding certain things of which we know nothing about. "Any legitimate news which the company can give the public, it will be only too glad to furnish the reporters with what they desire."

REPORT DECREASE

The total revenues of the entire Pennsylvania system for May were $33,975,349 an increase of $4,105,152; expenses including taxes were $27,283,160, an Increase of $4,221,848 leaving a net of $6,692,198 or a decrease of $116,695. From January first these figures are reported: Revenues, an increase of $12,996,680, expense (taxes included) an increase of $15,771,246 and net decrease of $2,774,565.

ROADS WANT COUNSEL

President Rea of the Pennsylvania system has been authorized to take steps to obtain for railways the privilege of having counsel present at the government appraisal. State commissioners ask the same privilege for the general public which they say has an equal right to express its opinions as the work progresses.

ABOUT ENGAGEMENTS. There are still many wno feel that an announcement of an engagement

In so public a way as through the society coulmns of the newspapers is excessively bad taste, yet most people agree that this is the best way of placing the news before a wide circle of acquaintances in the home town as well as in other cities. Before the public announcement appears' however, near relatives as well as the members of the immediate families should be informed by the written word. This is no light task for the affianced couple, and so the two mothers must share it. The young people write to those of their own class and age,, leaving the mothers to attend to the families and older friends. To be sure the burden may be lightened by the use of the telephone. If the engaged girl, to save herself the tedium of writing notes to so many friends, decides to give a luncheon, she would do wisely to bid only

those whom she intends to ask to be bridesmaids; or if the affair is to;

ue uvei ifu covers, 11 18 Dest lO ex-

tend it to at least twenty. All twenty could not be expected to be chosen for bridesmaids, whereas It would be an exceedingly delicate matter to choose six or eight girls out of ten. It is not necessary for the engaged girl to designate her choice at the luncheon unless she is to be married in the very near future. While, because of a tradition of a shy, maidenly reserve which -would be embarrassed by the presence of the fiance and other men, the luncheon takes first place as a social function at which to take opportunity to announce an engagement, the announcement dinner is now beginning to supplant it. The invitations for the dinner go out . to both young men and women, and before the dessert is served the secret is publicly confessed by the fiance. Yet, neither of these affairs entirely relieves the couple of the responsibility of writing notes,

A New Low Price Level for Fours

There have been many startling values in HUDSON cars in the past. This Four at $1,700 we think by far out-distances any HUDSON car ever before offered. Remember the "33" at $1600? It was the great car of its day. Thousands now daily prove the stuff of which it was built. This HUDSON Four, built more sturdily even, with

more powerful motor almost 40 horsepower with electric self -cranking device, electric lights, roomier body a $500 greater value is only $1700. Contrast such value with any Four on the market.

Both Cars Built by Coffin

- vars are the product of an engineering corps, the largest in the whole motor car industry. At its head is Howard E. Coffin, long regarded as the foremost engineer in America. Working with him are 47 experts. Each has been chosen because he excelled in some important particular. Most of them devote their whole time to the HUDSON. Others are free lance experts brought in to perfect some part.

Each has brought to the HUDSON the very best he knows. The result is that HUDSON cars in every detail reveal the utmost in car building. Remember that last year's HUDSON Six was the most successful Six ever built. And that Howard E. Coffin has more four cylinder successes to his credit than any other engineer in America.
