MARSH TELLS STORY OF TRIP

ACROSS NATION The last of Mr. W. E. Marsh's letters describing bis long cross. country trip in a Pilot "60" la even more interesting than those that hare preceded it. Upon Mr. Marsh's return to Corry the Board of Commerce gave him a big reception at which MrfMarsh gave an interesting talk on the events of the trip. At that time a portion of the following was read. Naturally after such a successful and . enjoyable r trip Mr, Marsh is more than ever before a Pilot enthusiast. He writes: Upon the 22nd we left Billing with the nose of the Pilot 60 turned for Corry. I have always considered the country between Billings, Mont., and1 Bismarck on the Missouri River as cer tainly "God Forsaken" it always had that appearance to me from the railroad and I was silently dreading this stretch of 500 miles, but going out of Billings we began to strike hustling ranches and farms and to my surprise they continued. -1 failed to -find the "God Forsaken Country." But we saw wheat, wheat, wheat and other agricultural products -and I began to have some new views of the western possi bilities of this country and of the won derful changes the pioneers and the progress men have made in this west ern world of ours. . I have only to say in conclusion that if you want to Bee this great country of ours take a trip of. 600 miles and open your eyes and you will come back surely saying "How great the the .possibilities of this western country of Sam's Domain." Under all the circumstances we will be glad to be home but the writer himself only wishes we had another month to spend along the road and see something more of this interesting section through , which,, we passed, Montana, North Dakota, and western Minnesota. Vefry abundant crops of .wheat and in some places oats ranging from 60 to 70 bushels to tt" ro and Minnesota has a wonderful ,.-cp of potatoes. Theytwere shippin them out of Minnesota and receiving somewhere from 18 to 28 cents a bushel and the prediction was made that before shopping was over 10 cents might be the ruling price." But for, hustling, : wide-awake, : pushing towns you must look to the west. They all seem to have eyes, ears and hands that simply BOOST and no matter if some things in their boosting line are dene that they do not approve of they ':'-nr:ly say "This Is a part of the nat1 way." "Into every life some rain :t fall. - but behind the clouds the i la still shining and If ou want to !o your share in building up your town ycu must not forget to overlook the Julas and the Magdalene, there are enjugh others to make up for the short coming' of the few." , Very respectfully, MARSH.

WESTCOTT CARS HAND PAINTED

One of the many 'interesting features; connected with the ; Westcott cars is' the method by which toe paint is applied to the bodies and chassis, according to F, T. Ross, publicity .manager of the company. The paint on Westcott bodies And chassis is neither squirted, sprayed or baked but is apapplied by hand with a common, ordinary brash and this alone' is responsible for the superb finish found on Westcott cars.'-. "When the new spraying method of applying the paint on - automobile bodies and chassis crept into the Industry." said Mr. Ross, "the officials of the Westcott Motor Car company turned an absolutely cold shoulder to it because they, contended It meant the thinning of the paint with benzine and turpentine to a certain degree, and that this could not Insure the same fine and lasting finish as the brush method. The workmen employed in the painting department are all oldtime carriage painters and have been with the company for years. They are experts, at the trade and work as if they have a personal interest in the future success of the company." ' , SPANGLER & JONES ADO NEW MACHINES TO OFFER PATRONS Spangler ft Jones received a carload of Chrevolet cars this week which they shipped immediately to the Stanley Motor Car company at Liberty, sub dealers for Union county. Another car load is expected next week.' ' The demand for this car has increased so rapidly' that it is becoming hard for the local agency to keep up with the orders and they are getting: the cars in as fast as -possible keeping their orders for machines ahead all the time. -' ' jJl:i:: Mr, Jones stated this; morning that both the Hayries add Reo factories are rushed with orders and that it was a difficult matter to secure cars from either factory.. They expect a shipment in the near future, however, and may be able to catch up with their orders. The firm has taken over the agency for Selden trucks and also for the Patterson car. They, have ordered twenty-five Pattersons and expect a shipment next week. The Selden trucks are a big seller all over the country and both Mr. Spangler and Mr. Jones are confident that they will sell a lot of them in Wayne county. Mr. Selden who is president of the

SPORTS OFmL SCllS

BY THE OLD SPORT

'Every one who understands the football rules knows that after a game has started the coach is not permitted openly to direct operations. Likewise, as every one knows, , there are moments during every game when the coach would sacrifice his left thumb to be able to get a bit of advice to his men. . Coaches have tried many schemes to get words of advice to their men, but the prize for scheming goes to those who guide the destiny of the Norristown ( Pa.) high school eleven. During the recent Norristown-Read-ing game it was noticed that the Norristown players seemed to have a fearful thirst. They were-almost constantly summoning the water boy, and the thirstiest of the whole team seemed to be the captain. Likewise it was noticed that whenever the water boy. a midget dressed in shabby clothing, doled out water to the captain, he always seemed to mutter quite a number of words, occasionally accompanying his remarks with a wave of his digits. .

AL SPEKEfJHIER RECALLS MAMY PERILOUS VOYAGES IN CITY'S FIRST r.1flCHIfE

A question that - has often been asked is, "who owned the first automobile in Richmond or Wayne county" and it has remained unanswered for a long time. While Al. Spekenhier was in town this week on a visit to friends from his home in Bogalusa, Florida, the question was put to him and he solved the problem by answering quickly, "I did." "It was back in 1890," said Mr. Spekenhier, "that Hi Henry's minstrels came through here and the principal attraction was an automobile. It was a machine operated by steam, built in Bridgeport, Ccnn., and as we would view it now it was a sight . "Everybody in town was out to see it and the driver ran it up and down the streets for the amusement of the crowd. "When I saw it cut a figure eight at the corner of Eighth and Main streets I got the bug and determined to buy it if possible. Buys Show tyachine. .."'":-- "I .went to Hi Henry and asked him what be would take for it and he said $600.00. I was in politics in those days and had that much money so I bought it. ' -v. "The machine was equipped with a big whistle and every time you'd blow it you'd have to get out and water up, for it took as much steam to blow the whistle as it did to run the car. "Every horse in town was in mortal terror of the machine and I had to use the alleys mostly in traveling around th town.'

Smith of Hagerstown,' has been granted a monthly, pension of Tight little jackets with astrakhan fur are new. This kept up until a chap named Doc Bunting, a former Penn. Charter academy man, and vitally interested in the Reading team, got a close look at the water boy. , "Hey, you, boy, c'm 'ere," bespoke Doc. The "water boy" didn't, and Doc pursued him. "Oh-oh. it's you, 'Boots, is it?" articulated Doc after he had caught, up with the fleeing water boy. "I thought It was kinda funny that a water boy would be having so much to say to the players. Say, you Boots.-you get off this here field, in about two minutes, or I'll bust your water bucket and a lotta other. things.: Get me?" : ; Boots got him and left. ' ; Yea, you've guessed it. Boots, who wears tiie last name of Shoffner, was a former quarterback for Norristown. This year he grabbed the Job aa advisory coach for Norristown, and bethought himself of the idea of posing as a water boy so that he could hand out advice to the players when it was most needed during the progress of the game. - "Even then I wasn't safe bacause I would get started up an alley and a hor6e would come in at the other end and before I could back out there would be another horse come In at the other end I had started from and I had all kinds of trouble in placating the drivers and it's a wonder I didn't get my head knocked off more than once. Noise Biggest Part. "The car had a tbree'and a half feet wheel base and weighed in the neighborhood of four or five hundred pounds, but the most to it was the noise it would make. "It would travel about twenty miles an hour and In going that distance would consume two or three barrels of water, that is providing you didn't blow - the whistle and then it would use up a ton or two more. . "V "A trip to Indianapolis could be made in about eight hours and believe me, I know every pump between here and there by iu christian name.,, v jTbis car wa a locomobile run "by two tubular boilers that' were, heated by gasoline and 1t took ' about 'thirty gallons to travel seventy miles. "When I would make a trip and stop in a town for water or gas I had to call out the police in order to get back to the Car so great; were the crowds that gathered around it.' "r have owned a car ever since except since I have been in Bogalusa and its impossible to own one there for the roads- are rotten," concluded Mr. Spekenhier. "
