Market Conditions Make Present Supply and Prices Uncertain

This is not an announcement of an increase in price. I do noteven know that a price increase is intended or will be necessary.

""But I do know that there never was a time when it was sodiffieirttto forecast^either :tfre^»:: 1;hat muisTbe paid for raw materials or toknow how to plan for future market requirements.

The accompanying table shows hoyr the rising pricesof raw materials have affected the Hudson Supcf'-Sut. 'vTh'e'iJriccaof all automobiles and manufactured goods of plrjacticully every kindhave been similarly affected. , 1 ; . - . .

Everything has increased in price duripg the past twoyears. There is no indication that top prices of raw materials haveyet been reached. ^

Serious as that situation is, however, it is not as badas are the newer conditions, which dnily become more"corifusing;

When costs of all materials increase correspondinglyprices adjust themselves; During the past two years we have seenprices mount higher and higher. The increases are approximatelyat the same ratio with all articles of merchandise. Therefore, thelist price of an automobiUvis todsy relatively no higher than it waswhen it sold nt from $200 to $300 less.

If these conditions continue it would not be difficultto meet them. The prices that must be paid in the future formaterials out of which automobiles are built, and which thus affectthe price nt which those cars must be sold, arc, however,.the least ofour present obstacles.

An all powerful and selfish buyer is in the market. Hedemands what he wants and no one has the power to oppose him.He is War. He takes the products of the world and at his willdeprives all othcrn of the use of the' material* they mny need.Today he threatens to stop certain ipdustrics, for his peed is r.ot tobe denied. Even War does not know from one day to another whathe shall want next. So no one can definitely plan for the future.

He may want automobiles end if lie doos his wantsmust be'supplied. He will require thousands of ambulances. Thiswould affect the supply of pleasure cars. War does not stop tomake repairs. He throws men, materials and money Into the scrapheap with an extravagance impossible of iin:igtn«tion. The averagelife of a war ambulance on the battle front is 11 hours. So thedifficulty now is in Knowing how to plan for future requirements.

Materials for automobiles must be contracted for fromtwelve to eighteen months in advance of production. As things arcnow, the matter of price is of secondary importance. Will we haveenough automobiles to meet requirements? I seriously doubt it.Surely people will continue to wont can. With the great prosperitythat exists in this country, with the tremendous expenditures of thebillions of dollars that ore being put into circulation for war supplies,thousands of new buyers will wont cars.

Pht.lon, 7'p»..*n(*r. . . . 916603p»wbUr, 4-paM«*(«r... I7BOC«lwi*U«, l-r«M«^«r.... U50

But the Government may want all our pleasure cars.If it 'does where are the cars' to come from except out of the stocksthat were intended 'to meet an expictcd normal dtm:.nd. Assurancehas already been given that privately owr.td automobiles -are notto be commandeered.

There is a distinct advantage in buying your jludsonSuper-Six today. It is not alone the advontapt of a price that isbased on a last year's material mari'tt. It is the advantage ofobtaining delivery. Who knowa how long, that rupply can be met?

I don't know how ninny cars I will be able to get. Iknow what has been promised, but the factory ctn pive me nodefinite assurances as to the future. MV Hudso:i com racts arc can-cellable so far as deliveries we concerned , when cars may be neededfor war purposes.

I have no assurances as to what price will have to DCcharged for the cars after I hnve had my present allotment and I donot know that I can even rely upon getting that allotment.

"It is an ill wind that blows no one good." War hasalways brought prosper! i.y even to the countries most sorely afflicted.It cannot fail to have a similar effect on America. You can readilyinagine what this will ilo in creating u greater demand for such a caras the 'Hudson Super-Six.

Isn't it natural to suppose now that power, speed, andparticularly endurance, nrc required as never before that the Hud-son Super-Six will be the wanted car?

I cannot imagine how there can be enough Super-Sixesto meet the condition, EO you sec the advantage in getting yourHudson Super-Six now.

Today you can get it at a price not influenced bypresent material costs. You are assured of delivery. Neither theprice nor the delivery, I am sure, con be guaranteed ns to the future.

life after death, in which theare happy and the bad suffer?

But there is one Person who canunravel th/e deepest mysteries andsolve tor us the most perplexingproblems. 'There is one place whereour deepest questionings can be an-swered. That Person is the LordJesus Christ and that place is theCross on which He died.

Let your imagination recreate thescene of Calvary for itself; especiallythat part of it to which reference ismade In our text. It is a scene ofdeath, three times repeated. "Andthey crucified him and two otherswith him, J.he one on the right handand the other on the left." On thatcentral "Cross hangs the bruised andmangled, form of Christ, dying forsin, .in a real, true, substitutionarysense. On one side of Him is c mandying in sin, with all such sensibilitiesas penitence and faith utterly dead.On the other side another man, alsodying,'but dying in faith and in thsexpectation of a bright and gloriousfuture. Gather with me to-day; abou1.that group of crosses, and 1t may bethat .as we gaze and listen some ofour doubts will vanish and some olpur deepest questionings will be an- shipjswered. That repentant robber is not repose!there by accident or chance and morehinges upon his experience and con-duct than appears upon the surface.That middle cross is not alone theInstrument of shame and death andthe symbol of our salvation, but it Is adivine revelation also concerning manymany things, the knwojedge of whichwill add greatly to qur spiritual peaceand comfort.

Think with me for aTnoment. Therehangs upon that central cross Jesusthe Christ. How tired and weak Hemust have been! *•

At this Juncture of His menta! andphysical "sufferings and complete ex-haustion there bursts upon His ear apetition, a prayer from one of Hisfellow sufferers,'"Lord, remember mewhen thou comets Into thy kingdom."And instantly, although the .cold

. clammy sweat is gathering on Hisforehead and His eyes are beginningto be overcast by the film ot death,He turns 'a beaming gace toward thesuppliant and says, "Verily, I say untoihee, t6Mray~sh"aU"llibuTft)" with mtrlnParadise."

Now, In presence of this petitionoffered at a time whon our 1-ord mightwell be occupied with other thingspertaining to Himself, yet graciouslyresponded to by Him, what becomesof your doubts aa to the ofllcucy otprayer to move tho arm that rulestho world? Would this groat boonhave come to the dying robber In thoorder of nature without pruyeft Oaroyou ask now, In any uplrlt or IIUOH-tlonlng or misgiving, an to whether Udoos any good to pray? No, tho Crosshas solved that problem for -us. Stand-ing there beneath Its shadow, tho con-viction steals Into our hearts that woare not praying in vain; that wo liranot praying to pillions law, hut thatour petitions aro being hoard by Himwho said "Ask and It ahull bo given,It shall' bo opened unto you." There-fore,, pray; pray without ceasing. "Ineverything, by prayer nnd supplica-tion, with thanksgiving, lot your ro-ijuoHls bo made known unto (Jod,"

contrasting his own guilty,life with that of the pure and sinlessSufferer also dying at his side. Andthe comnarlson has brought him anything bat comfort. Then there Is be-gotten within him the conviction thatChrist Is all that He claimed to be,and which the title afllxed to theCross corroborates. It Is Just possi'ble that ho had heard Jesus makethe declaration, "My Kingdom 1s notor this world, else would my peoplefight." and his faith and hope projectsa pe006h~Tor'I>en3embTd.nce~and'"rec'"ognition tyhen Christ comes into Hisown. "Lotd, remember me whenthou. comest Into thy kingdom."

Now" if Jesus Christ were only manHe must have undeceived His trust-ful companion in suffering and guidedhis faith and hope away from Him-self to Him who alone can lay claimto Deity. For who can forgive sin3but God only? But what Is it thaiHe does? He does not say, "My poorfellow, you have made a great mistake. I am not what 1 once thought Iwas and what you suppose me now tobe. I am only a poor sinner likeyourself and needing to offer for my-self the prayer which you have Justoffered to me." If He were only man.that is what He must have said; thatIs how He must have acted. But Hedoes nothing of the kind.

There is no uncertainty here;

fixlon. Men eulogize Him aa a manind praise Him for Hta purity ot lifeand nobility of purpose. But wo mustnever forget this, that /He died forasserting on oath that He was "Godmanifest In tho flesh."

On that other cross Is a poor wretchwith his soul all stained with sin, andhia conscience burdened with thetransgressions of a lifetime. For since

SENNACHERIB'S INVASION OFJUDAH

2 Kings 18:13-25; 19:1-37.

Golden Text—Goc! is our refuge andstrength, a very present- help introuble. Psalm 46:1.

Instead of taking tho verses from 2Kings 18, as given In the program. Itwould be better, probably, to take first2 Chron. 32:1-18, and then turn" to 2Kings 19:1-37. The record in Chron-icles shows how Hezeklah prepared todefend Jerusalem, and how he en-couraged his people with the assur-ance that God was on their side "Bestrong and courageous," he said "Be(not afraid Tor the King of Assyria;for there are more with us than withhim." With hlifl Is an arm of flesh;but -with—us ,ls.~tha.-Lord- our-. God-V-(See Josh. 1:6, 7; 2 Kings 6:16.)

The King of Assyria seems to havehad spies in Jerusalem. At rill events,he knew that Hezekinh had promisedthe people of God's protection, and hesent messengers and a letter to dis-credit this promise. He argued thatthe God of the Jews was no betterthan the gods of the cities which ,hohad conquered, and therefore couldnot protect them, and that even if Godcould protect them, He would not; be-cause Hezekiah had destroyed Hisaltars. Hezekiah had taken away thealtars that had been built in defianceof the law of Moses, which were infact used in idolatrous forms of wor-ship, but the King of Assyria citherdid not know this, or else thought

e could deceive" the Jews by telling:iem that this act of loyalty to Godn the part of their king was an aci

rebellion against God, ami there-re they could not expect any help

rom God.Sennacherib had good reason foi

ishing to obtain possession of Jeru-alem without being compelled to take

by force, for Jerusalem was a veryrong city. Its natural position was

trong and 1t had bean strongly tor-fled. Even the Romans, with much

uperion engines of war had to besiegeerusalem for months before theyould get full possession of it, al-hough the Jews in the city wereivided into factions which were atar with each other. Knowing the

trength of the place and the lightingualities of the Jews the Assyrianlanarch was not anxious to attack it

he could get possession of It with-ut fighting. Nebuchadnezzar after-ar_ds_fpllowed the same plan, wlthjia

THE GOLDEN RULEMatthew 7:12

Tho world' expects a mar/ that heshall be good for something, but Ifbis character (a above suspicion, ' Itwill be satisfied with very moderateevidences qf active goodness. And theworld has so great ap admiration foroutward- success that It honors, thesuccessful man even If ho has no othermerit.

Success, in and of Itself, does notraise a man in' God's estimation, andnegative goodness—freedom from badhabits—is of no value In His sight un-less there Is an honest effort to pleaseHim. God requires of us active good-ness. His old law—"Thou shalt notsteal, t,liou shalt not kill, thou shaltrot -covet"-—has-been- superseded-by-imuch greater law, which makes subhstatutory prohibitions unnecessary:'Thou shalt love" covers the whole

ground."Whatsoever ye would that men

should do to you, do ye even so tothem." Like all the great sayings ofJesus this command needs to bu con-*sidered carefully to find its true sig-nificance. When Jesus said, "Ask. andye shall receive," He did not -.ueanthat God would grant every^foollshpetition that we choose to maSie!'"''So'in giving this command Jesus did notmean to teach us to do everything forcur neighbor that we might like tohave done for us.

Suppose you are the rich man. thesame rule applies of course to you.You are not under obligation to shareyour fortuncoWith your poorer iieigh>bor even tlibugh you may be q"ulteconscious of the fact that if the situa-tion was reversed you would like himto share with you.

Not only are you not under any obli-gation to share.your fortune with yourpoorer neighbor because you >vouldlike him to share with you if you werepoor, but you /Would have no right todivide up wiyh your neighbor unlessthe circumstances should be altogetherexceptional. You are responsiblle toGod for the right use of whatever Hecommits to your care and you couldnot. get rid pf half your responsibilityby turning It over td your neighbor,unless you should have good reasonto believe that God wished you todivide with him. The fact that thomoney is in your hands, and not Inyour neighbor's hands, is at leastprima fade evidence that God wantsyou to manage it for Him.

We are not in much-danger of_errinBin the direction of obeying this ruletoo literally. The danger Is that weshall make the impossibility of .'olngall that It might be held to require anexcuse to our own consciences forIgnoring it. ~~ -

Jesus does demand of us that weshall be careful to be not only Justbut generous In our treatment ofothers, Just as wo would wish themto be toward us. We must be carefulof tho reputation of others, we mustbe careful of tho feelings of others,and wo must be kind and helpful tothe extent of our ability and opportun-ly. And above all, wo must try toclp others to got acquainted with

Christ and to obey His teaching.In common with all the other say-

ngs of Jesus this one In Intenselyradical when properly understood.

FENCE" TO PROTECTA HIGHWAY

A plank road of rather expensiveconstruction was built about a yearago across the Imperial Valley desertof California and at once it was realiz-ed that the value of this road' was[o^'Tie nullified by ' t_lie~ frequent sandstorms which prevail in thai' localityand which soon burled the road undera deep deposit. Many men and horse-drawn scrapers were made use of tokeep It clear, but It was a never-end-dlng task and later the experimentwas tried of keeping the road clearby means of a "sand fence" built onsomewhat the same principle of th«snow fences along tho mountain rail-roads of tho West to prevent tho for-mation of drifts on tho road. Thoonly results thus far available, naysthe Engineering, NowB-Ilecord, In thodrift-barrier experiments -havo._to aftwith a section of 18-ft. road on asandy, wind-swept portion of thoStiito highway system. Hero thoroad Is paved with concrete; It has a:t-lnch crown and la surfaced withnnphaltlc oil and screenings.

Tho drift barrier llrsl tried for till"road wan placed at about twolvo feetfrom tho nearest edge of the pavedHtrlp and at a slightly higher ele-vation, In thin poHlllon Iho barriercaiiHod the dr i f t to form on the farildo of Iho pavement.'

NITROGEN TAKEN FROMAIB AT 10W COST ,

Thrown on our own resources ifortho "production1 of nitrogen for fer-tilizer and the manufacture , of am-munition, an American . genius hasmade some discoveries that promise ;to bo revolutionary in'their character.It Is promised! that wo will bo lu aposition to extract all of this chemicalthat wo shall likely need from the airwithout any of ^the elaborate para-phernalia and great expense that Isat present attending this process'atthe present time. Tho announcement,which Is of, great Importance becauseor the Inaccessibility of the naturalproduct and the high cost of that re-covered from tho air, was made byDr. John E. Bucher, of Brown Uni-versity, a short time ago and ratherfully exploited in a lecture whichtook place at the annual gathering ofthe Institute of Chemical Engineers

TieTd "firth'STall" of tMe"Chem£su' 'CTub" ~in New York.

The substance of Dr. Bucher's ad-dress lies in the fact that he has.dis-covered that nitrogen-will combinewith an alkali and carbon In the pres-ence of Iron as a catalyst and producethe cyanide. What this means la thatho mixed soda ash and powdered ironor Iron ore—either will do—and pow-dered, cok'e together and heated themIn an ordinary furnace, ran airthrough live furnace, and tho resultwas cyanUte of soda with the iron un-combined. The iron had acted as achemical agent to combine the nitro-gen of tho air with the soda and thecoke. No electric power Is needed,no heavy outlay, no costly materials;the, whole thing may be carried outanywhere at apparently very low cost.

The sodium cyanide, by treatmentwith steam, win* turn Into bicar-bonate of soda and ammonia, aud ifyou g^ve tho chemist ammonia to startwith he has his fixed nitrogen thereand can make nitric acid or fertilizeror any one of a thousand oilier tilingsout of it ' :

But Dr. Bucher went this one better,led into a cyanito of soda, solutionsome waste gas from his furnace (car-bon dioxide) and this produces urea.Now, urea is three times as Hch Innitrogen as nitrate of soda and twiceas rich as ammonium sulphate, bothof which are used by farmers; It willnot make the soil acid and it bids fairto give surprising results as a fer-Ulzor from preliminary tests mode Inthe botanical laboratory of BrownUniversity.

The cyanide of soda under influenceof an electric current separates Intometallic jodiuro, for which there la alarge demand In chemical Industryand cyanogen. Tho cyanogen is rapid-ly absorbed in hydrochloric acid andbecomes oxamld. This contains nearlyone-thlnl nitrogen In combination andIs nearly Insoluble, so that it wouldnot bo washed away from tho sail byrains, and It should also make an Idealfertilizer. Of course, nobody hasthought of using urea or oxamld'forfertilizer bocause thoy are BO oxpon-Blve, but Dr. Buchor*B work opens upall sorts of possibilities.

Tho groat thing Is. that hero appearsto bo a way of going what chnmistshave-been-aftor-for-forty-yoars-wlUi=--out any other raw materials than coal.Iron, soda and air and without theneed of wiitor power. Thoro are engl-neorlnR dotalln that aro not workedout or not yet proved In practlco, buttho Idea Is tlioro. Dr. Bucher pub-lished a full paper on tho subject Intho March number of tho Journal.ot..,.Industrial and Engineering Chemistryof the American Chomlcal Society.

By way ,of explanation It whould bosaid that tho Industry of fixing nltro- •gen began at Niagara Falls nearlytwenty yearn ago (o carry out tho tn-venllonn of Charles 8. Bradloy, anAmerican chemist. As money wan notforthcoming to complete experiments,It drifted ovor to Norway, wlioro Itnow flourifllicfl llko a frroan bay tree.U requires onormoun oloctrfo power.

chryfiaiithemunifl are among - theeasiest of garden flowers to grow. Yeta certain amount of core will Increasetheir beauty and productiveness.

What ore their chief needs? Sunshineand a rich soil; then, a division of theclumps every year or two. Easy goinggardeners let them remain and IncreaseIn the some spof year after year, won-dering perhaps, after^a time, why theflowers decrease- In sice, become poorerIn color and perhaps die out alto-Kcther.

Then there Is disbudding. But let usconnlder these, things ono at a time.

The Boll.Granted first that your chrysanthe-

mums are planted In an open, sunnyposition, the soil Is the next donsldera-llan.

A rich mellow loam is neceasary forlh« bwt rwult*. Besides this, the aoll

shou)d( bo re-dug and manured eachSpring, or at least every other Spring,at the same time dividing and re-Bcttlngthe plants.

Al«o stir a "couple of trowelfuls ofmanure or. bone meal carefully aboutthe roots of each plant about the first ••of July and again tho first of Septem-ber. This should be t!/e lost fertilizationas over-stimulation would -result nn<tthe plants must at that time be allowedto form their buds.

Watering with liquid manure ts per-missible and also helpful. Do not for.-,get that chrysanthemums are grotafeeders.

Dividing and Re-Setting.8 I HAVE Bald, allowing chrysan-

themums to remain undisturbedfor years Is the cause of decrease ofvigor and beauty. It Is really best toreaet them «ach Spring.

fte-'frenclT^th'e soit"dlggmg*"frrim"°one~'and a half to three feot In depth, plac-ing 'well-rotted manure at the bottomof the trench and replacing alternatespadefuls of top soil and old manure.When near enough to the top, set thoplants In mellow, well-fined top soil. Otcourse, never let manure come intoactual contact with these or any plantroots. Bone meal may also be used,or humus or sheep manura or a mixtureof these.

Chrysanthemums start fairly earJy Inthe Spring. When they are about threeInches high they should be carefullydug Up and divided, either by pullingapart with the fingers or by cutting theclumps with a knife or sharp spade.

Allow about four shoot* to eachclump. In choice varieties plant eachshoot separately and you will soonhave your stock doubled and trebled.

Set plants twelve or eighteen Inchonapart each way In rows or In clumpo. Tomake a clump draw «. spiral and set theplants a foot s )art along the curvingline, seeing that this line swings out afoot as it tunu.

At this time pinch out the top of ea.cn• shoot to branch and thicken It During

May and again In June pinch backagain to keep the plants bushy andshapely. Borne varieties are inclined,otherwise, to grow straggly.

Dis-budding.Late varieties: If buds begin to form

before September remove them all.Early varieties abouldxAot be dla-bud-d«J later than July. V

Bud selection ISy/fes a rule, left forbut the terminal (end) bud on Winprimary Importance. It scarcely entersInto the cultivation of the hardly types.I would not recommend It for thepompon varieties, but I would disbudsuch single-flowering sorts as I desiredto have extra large and fine

Dls-buddlnc Is done by removing allbut the terminal (end) but on eachshoot, thus forcing the strength of thoplant' Into fewer and larger flosf«rs.

Right-here we see the proof of thewise old adage, "Train up a child Inthe way he should go." For If youdo not train your chrysanthemum cnn-dren to grow straight while the shootsare Mill soft and pliable you cannot doit later. Chrysanthemum shoots ripenrather rapidly, growing woody and brit-tle—and then they will break if oneattempts to straighten them out

I wonder when a child's character be-gin* to "moke wood?" From the dayof Its birth, I should say. And If youwant |t later to show self-control, un-Bculahneas and those kindred virtuesthat ore the very root and foundationof all character—well, look at thechrysanthemum and draw your ownmoral.

, OMB VARIETIES of chrysanthe-mums do not require staking.

.Cithers, especially when allowed to growInto great clumps, lie,down, have bentand twisted sums and so aro not sodesirable as cut flowers. These shouldbei tied to wood stakes with raffia orsoft cord that will not cut th* items.

Insect Pests.I know of only one—a small black

aphis or sucking Insect that clings tothe stems In great nmbera. I have notrouble In getting rid of them, using aspray of tobacco water every few daystill they are gone—to' return no morethat season. t

To make tobacco water: Buy fromyour seedsman, tobacco stems by thoquantity: I use a barrel each year. To-bacconists will often give them away.They ore very cheap.

Make a tea by pouring boiling waternn a pailful of stem* and allowing It lostand till cool. Or I often boll mine forhalf an hour. Tben I dilute this strong

tea with cold water and use either In aspray machine or watering can. It Isalso good for the nasturtium aphis andthe red Hoe on. .'golden glow, all ofwhich are abroad In the land at thesome time.

A strong soap suds Is also beneficial,^especially If mixed with kerosene and

made Into an emulsion. But It mustcome l»to direct contact with the bug*.

Tobacco water, by the way, 1» good forthe soil, destroying worms and grabsand fertilizing at the same time.

, . Diseases.Chrysanthemums.are comfortably free

from disease. Occasionally the leavesgrow a little rusty. Remove the Mr»toffenders and burn. Then spray wltnBordeaux mixture twice a week tillcured. It Is not a persistent disease.Varieties of Hardy Chrysanthe-

mums.There are twp main types ,pf Ijarfly

chrysanthemums—th,o pompon or but-ton type and the single-flowered or astertype.

Pompon, or Button

TChrysanthe-

mums.RK8K nrp tho cluster or spray

chrysanthemums. The larger onesarc. usually referred to as "pompons,"

and those very charming liny ones arethe "buttons." Both are uplendld. giv-ing (juantltles of bloom In branchlnsclusters and In many lovely colors, theold rose und the bronzo shades beingespecially charming.

In Jhe latitude of Philadelphia theyare seldom uiught by frost before flow-ering. Personally, I ho^ve never had Ithappen. Farther north It might be wellto cover with newspapers or cloth Iffrost Is expected. Many, Indeed, willnot bloom till a touch of frost hascome, but sometimes the foliage Is wilt-ed by it, and, of COUTHC, that robs theflower of more than half Its beauty.

Only the black frost finally kills, anathen the ~ tops are cut off near tbeground and a covering of leaves, manureand litter applied for the Winter. They

seldom Winter kill. Laet year I lost agreat many, for the. first time In my ex-perience. But then It was an especiallyhard Winter, and I toet also many d«l-

' phlnlums, foxgloves, roses, lilies, lobe-lia, cardinal!' and a few other things.The two Dotya are the very best and

quite the largest of. the pompon, type,ns I told you last year. Lillian-Doty, afine clear pink, and one called WhiteDoty.

Other whites ore Waco, Queen orWhites. BooneJand Myer's Perfection.

Other pinks are Donald, Mlnta and <»•lovely deep rose pink Western Beauty.

daisies are 'chrysanthemums, thoughmost people do not know It. Theirgreat advantage Is that they bloom InSummer, the Arctic, Shaeta and Japan-ese (NIPPOTilcum) varieties from Junetin frost; the Moonpennys In June andJuly.

The Moonpennys look like doubleFrench Marguerites or like double Pyre-thruma. The great, glistening Shastadaisy, the best of Its tribe, is often fiveinches across and a priie for bloomingqualities. The Paris daisy, or Mar-guerite. \» a hardy chrysanthemum. Itmay be crown from seed.

Chrysanthemums.Grown from seed, the annual chrysan-

SATURDAY, JULY 21,.'1917

T&ose who advocate a change in the automobile route throughHammonton lay much stress upon the fact that Bellevue Avenue isnarrow, and too frequently so blocked with teams and automobiles thatpassage is difficult for tourists. It .iV-a-fact, that frequently teams andcars are parked on both sides of the avenue for hours at a time, and thejitneys are stationed there, leaving scant room for two to safely meebetween the lines. It .is said that some people drive into town, take atram for the cit^ijwyiugjcar^r^camage^^standirig^ ajl_ rlayjoiijmr mainthoroughfare. Council has authority to remedy1 this' difficulty, by theiorder that no vehicle shall remain standing on Bellevue Avenue morethan thirty minutes It would cost but little effort to turn into a crossstreet; and jitney drivers would scarcely lose a fare if they were requiredto run a few rods farther to keep a clear way on the through route.

We were aware that Hammonton soil is good to grow most everything, but the following rumor, which is going the rounds, is almosunbelievable: One of farmer Smith's boys climbed a corn-stalk to seehow the corn was getting along, and now the stalk is growing fasterthan the boy can climb down. He is now out of sight. Three men haveundertaken to cut down the stalk with axes, to rescue the boy, but itgrows so fast they can't hack twice iu the same place. The youngsteris living on nothing but raw corn, and has already^Hirowri'down fourbushels of cobs. Next!

Farmers have had no difficulty in disposing of -their berries thisseason, at good^rices for good fruit. The' Homeway Company takeover two hundred crates per day ; and cau houses at Winslow, Salem,and Glassboro are using Hammonton berries, and hundreds of acres oftomatoes have been contracted for in this vicinity.

Several weeks ago, one of the Town's free lodgers jammed the jailtoilet, damaging it so badly that the committee were undecided whatto do. Complaint is now being made that it is decidedly-unsanitary,and doubtless repairs will be made without further delay. If they couldonly catch the fellow who did the damage !

Hammontonians who are anxious about the draft which occurredyesterday at Washington, can see the list this afternoon, in the PostOffice. Each name has its number,— several of which will correspondwith the numbers drawn at the government's lottery. We may publishthe entire list next week.

The letter from France which we published last week was writtento the Navy League, and not to the War Relief. The work ofc the twoorganizations is so similar, and many of our ladies are members of both,and in that way our reporter got the two confused.

At the carnival, this week, several side-shows were announced "formen only ; women not admitted." We did not see many going in,—proving that no self-respecting man, will enter such a show, if it is notfit for his wife to see.

Why is it that locomotive engineers take such delight in blowingtheir whistles while passing through town on Sunday evenings, duringchurch service ? They go screeching for half-a-mile, drowning out everyother sound.

Wherever he chancea to stray ;He eetd the film! bund in the populoim town,

And deep in the Isles of the woods ;Wherever he BOOS—there's a welcoming hand-he's

The Man Who Delivers the Goods.

The failures of life sit around and complain,The gods haven't treated them white ;

They've lost their umbrellas whenever there's rain,And they haven't their lanterns at night.

Men tire of failures who till with their sighsThe air. of their own neighborhoods;

There's • man who la greeted with love-lighted oyea-ho'sThe Man Who iTclivers the Coocts.

One fellow Is lazy and watches the clock,And waits for the whistle to blow ;

And one han a hammer with which he will knock,And one tells a story of woo.

And one If requested to travel u mileWill measure the perches and roods :

Itut one does his stunt with a wlilntlu nnu smile- he'sThe Man Who Delivers the (loads.

One man ID afraid that he'll labor too hard, —Thu world Un't yearning for uucli ;

And ono In ever alert—on hfn guard-Lent he put In a minute too much.

One has a grouch on, n temper thut 'n bad,And one In u creature of moods ;

By request of several citizens, we publish Town Council's rules inregard to the Chief of Polite, So far as we can ascertain, these are stillin force,—no changes having been made since 1908.

Isn't it pretty nervy for a sign company to paste great cigaretteposters on their boards "opposite a church ?

MR!

"Our Lady's Day."

Monday's celebration was con-ceded to be the biggest - in manyyears, in point of visitors and peo-ple in parade.

All the events of the day tookplace near the hours set, and each

-was-enjoyaiiler—Begittnhrg^wlthe sun-rise saliite;'(eight o'clock-)the excellent band music, and theinile-long parade, and lastly, theinteresting fireworks, all explainedwhy so many thousands come toHammonton every year to witnessthe feast.

All kinds of stands were in fulloperation on Third Street, severalof which consented to close up,rather than get pinched ; and atraveling carnival took in its hun-dreds with side-shows,'baby racks,and the merry-go - round. Thecarnival remained three days.

The statues were, as usual, wellladen with strings of greenbacks.

Good order was maintained allday by a dozen or more specials.Pickpockets were conspicuous bytheir absence. Several childrenlost their parents,, among them asmall boy from Folsom.

One of the greatest1 sights was,late in the evening, the departureof visitors, by train, by automobileand in farm wagons. They wereliterally packed in, weary and footsore, but everybody happy.

THE SHIFTING SANDSOF THECIMARRON

i T WAS the third badyear in that part of theWest; the annual hotwind had again laid lowthe corn, and farmingmen and women, garingstonily over the arid

plain, had a certain wonder that Godcould let the wheling sun so blazeand "gloat over the little remainderof their crops. Something more <ll-vine than courage animated those whocould let the wheeling sun so oluzemid-July, and that was a time whenmany a strong man derived from wife

he haled to retreat without, havingventured anything. Presently hitook one of the horses out of th<traces and waded in.

"I'll cross this way drat and see IIt is safe for the wagon," he said.

It scorned safe enough. Ho did nolsink to hlrf hips ,during tho passage;frequently the water barely coveretIlls feet; sometimes he walked onlitt le spaces of bare, wet sand. Onthe opposite shore he stuck up a poleto sulde him, and then waded backslowly to his young wife. • " .

"If notliinB shifts, we cnn cross a'lripht." he told her. "The water can'tSet into the wagon box. either. If wokeep moving. It's when you stop thatthe sand feels dangerous underfoot."

His cas.v passage to and fro hadencouraged I^ucy, nnd she was eagerto undertake the crossing. But it is

hold on against despair.Lucy Harlow was alarmed by her

husband's state—Ms black moods hadgrown longer and his talk more des-perate in spite of her lilting way.She began to fear "his brain was af-fected.

"It's beggary to stay here, and wecan't get out. Our two years' workhas gone for nothing; the land isworth nothing. You'd be better offwithout me, for then you could gohome to your father—and what I livefor I donU know."

"You've got the children and you'vegot me. Will," she said, coming tohim affectionately; but he turneJaway with a groan and went out togaze at his cows. Would the droughtcontinue until they should becomeagain mere animated skin and bone?

Before be came back Lucy had con-ceived a plan. Change he must have,and it would be good for the childrenand herself.

"Will." she said, "I get downheartcd myself, too, often. I wish I couldsee somebody belonging to me; it'stwo years now, and only strangers allround. I'm thinking of my sisterEliza over Mulhall way. You've gotto take -wheat in to the railway one ofthese days, for the flour is most outSuppose you take me and the childrenand -we go all the way to Mulhall."

Now the -railway was twenty-fivemiles distant, but Mulhall was seven-ty-five miles farther away. Willlooked blank, and groaned with ob-jections that seemed insurmountable.

But Lucy blew them all away beforethe hext evening. Her neighbors tothe east had agreed to care for thecows and milk them for the milk; tofeed' the hogs in consideration of be-ing allowed to keep the little black-nnd-wbite sow; to mind the fowls atthe price of the gray hen and .fifteenchicks.

"But ""No use 'butting/ Will. We'll take

care of the horses ourselves, forthey'll be taking us to Mulhall; andthe children will be with us. Mrs.Scarlett says she will feed the catand look after the pugs if we let herkeep the brindly one. Now you can't

-tbinlr-of-another thing against takingtwo weeks off and visiting my sisterKliza."

So the next day Will tilled six bugswith the precious wheat,—they hadreaped barely enough for breadutuflthat year,—and Lucy did her llttlobaking and washing, and packed herbox of rations for tho Journey, Shi>ming as she worked, arid Will whistledfor the first time Hlnco "tlio annual"had blighted the corn. It wan goodmedicine thn t the young wife had de-VlHCtl.

"If Iho wnyn of Provldonco nro In-Hcriilablo, Ihoro'H no UHO miking aboutIhoni," uiild Lucy. "Don't lot IIH gelnlKhli iK n him I IOHHOH, or Iho punt , orhim! luok, or anything.

daunted on dry land and quite1 anotherto keep up her nerve with water roll-Ing nnd gurgling under the liox of herwagon—and it traveling on quicksand.

Lucy was so dizzy in a few secondsthat slic shut her eyes and claspedthe children t ighter ; still she seemedto see the river rolling and the wag-indrif t ing away. Every moment iheexpected to feel the water round herfeet. Meantime Will led his teamcoolly, and the children, staring nowat the flood and now at their calmfather, gave no sign of fright.

Stirred by the current,«sand rolledfrom the bottom in such quantities-that the footing went from under thehorses and the man -as they trod. Itwas a. terrifying sensation. The Horsessnorted with fear as they pressedquickly on. and Will urged them by,his voice to keep them • from utterdiscouragement. The man himself wasnot terrified, although he was anxious,and wished he had not brought thewagon in. He had a definite thing toaccomplish, and his physical couragewas of a high order. Even though hedreaded to find a gully washed out inthe path since bis crossing, he wasfirmly resolved to "get there"—to thashore beyond this turbid current andshifting sands.

At an alarming Jerk Lucy openedher eyes. The horses had suddenlyplunged much deeper; she saw thecurrent pushing at their sides. Thewagon was going down; its frontwheels dropped with a Jolt. Waterwas gurgling against the box, and shedrew up her feet with a cry.

"O Will, let us turn back!"Will was wading to his waisU-He

stood aside and shouted, -."Git upthere! Git up!" anil cracked his black-snake whip. "Sit down, Lucy!" heyelled. "Keep your welg-ht low!We'll get through all right, yet!"

She sank down in the' seat; thowater was almost to her knees. In her

rms she pressed the children, whoiad begun to shriek and cry. Willternly urged his horses. Soon theyad strugged across the gully and had

scrambled up the steep. And then, ashe front wheel-struck tihe edge, the:ray rhare fell down. Instantly tha

wagon seemed to settle lower in thoiand.

Iiv vain Will shouted at and whip-ped the beast; she was discouraged;he terrible sand was rapidly goingrom under her and piling against her

hfRuri to soar and the clamor of house-wlvt.s, became more Insistent, 1 plannedn work for myself that I thoUKht shouldhelp to relieve the situation and brinemo in worth-while returns.

Tho work has turned out far betterfinancially than I hoped for even, andmy patrons declare me nn "pngel ofmercy." Tha market dealers tell me Inave them much annoyance and time.

Now let me tell you ahout my work—you can do the same thing, possibly.

I made out p, list of people who haveconsiderable marketing to do (Includingtwo small private hospitals)—all withinfasy reach of a certain cor line. Someof these people I knew, BO I told myplan to them first, then called on therespective names on my li«t.

I ofCcred to do'their marketing for aweek free of charge—depending upontho market dealers (whom I had al-r«idy Interviewed) for my commission,until I had satisfied them that moneyand trouble could be saved.

After I secured as many patrons asI felt I could find time to call on eachmorning for thrtr orders, I branched out

-to places more, distant—fajnllleB whobought largely, and were willing to•phone me the marketing they wishedattended to. Intimate little personaltalks enlightened me ns to Just howmuch tho different families oared <°spend. Now that saving Is the fashldn.this caused no embarrassment what-AVAF. Monv of th«sfi houacwlvea would

have gone personally to market but thatclub and Red Cross work demandedtheir time,

• • •

AS MY work enlarged In scope I fe-ciLme more Interested. I found it

uur t l i while and susceptible of almostunl imited possibilities for usefulness.

The (tenters soon realized that 1 knewfrom thorough study of price*, foodvalues and prevailing conditions justwhat their customers were entitled to.1 was up on weights and measured, iknew .If epgfl w«»r«. a cent lower; no blue-iQoklng dressed fowl escaped my vigil-ance, and 1 wns "right on the job'* whenPrices fluctuated.

I became Interested In finding out formy patrons more econpmlcal means orcatering to their families' needs. Nonew vegetable or fruit came to the mar-ket that I did not let them know—thosewho Indulged In the luxuries of theseason.

O NE DAY I was agreeably surprisedwhen a handsome car stopped at

inv door and a note was handed me by

the chauffeur, usklng me to go In thecar and purchase certain articles (leftto my own discrimination) for a chil-dren's party to be given that night.This took me to the market, the Itorlst'n.the confectioner's and the gift ahop,and, best of all, It gave me the Idea orcombining buying of this nature witnthe more sordid food marketing. I wasIndeed delighted when I received com-miaslonu to uupply homeu with freshJlowern, and I revelled In being allowedto arrange my selection** in what 1considered their proper setting. /

Many of my patrons had been In U»hublt of ordering expensive road* andorchids; more from lorce cf, habit thananything else, nnd to save time, tho'told mo. They were good enough to tellme the re&l enjoyment they felt ovtrsimply-arranged field daisies and fern.*,apple and cherry blossoms, and oth*<r

I have had to become most methodic-al In my bookkeeping nnd Indexing «yH-tems, elie I should find niynelr in a ter-rible Jumblo of accounts and commlH-alons—but I am thankful for the disci-pline and awakening of faculties I didnot know I possessed.

Sometimes I am asked to make outmenus for an entire week—the market-ing to be done.by myself. Once I wassent on a lovely trip to the country toattend to a supply of cream, butter andeggs for a big hotel. Twice I have at-tended to all the details of elaboratebanquets.

As I know exactly what and how tobuy, and have no time to waste, I savethe market .dealers much annoyance, forwhich they are gtsd to pay me a com-mission.

This Time Hudson Super-Six Special Makes New American SpeedwayRecord for 200 Miles, Averaging 104 Miles an Hour

Ralph Mulford hai again demonstrated the en-durance of the Hudson Super-Six.

At the Chicago Speedway June 16th 60,000 peopleBCW him establish new speed records for 160 milesand for 200 miles.

A special racing car was used. It embodies allthe details of design and construction .that has ac-counted for the records of endurance held by Hud-son Super-Six stock and racing cars.

The motor is exactly the same size as the stockmotor*. The design is no different.

The principal changes are sucrTfts could be madeat nominal cost to any Hudson Super-Six.

Endurance AH ImportantVibration la the (oe to long motor life. It «c-

counti for breakdowns and for liigh maintenancecost.

Vibration i« usually responsible for the car's fre-quent trips to the repair shop.

It la vibration more than anything else whichforce* cars out of speedway contests. Vibrationaccounts for diminishing power of motors.

If vibration and friction could be entirely elim-inated thero would bo no such thing on a motor car •ever wearing out Dy reducing vibration the life ofthe car la prolonged.

Vibration also reduces the usable power of themotor. Much of the power generated is consumedwithin the motor by its own vibration.

The Hudson Super-fix motor, more thnn anyother type, has minimized vibration. That .is whythe Hudson Super-Six is more powerful and curableof greater endurance than other cars.

These Tests Prove ItHudson Super-Six speed tests are in reality en-

durance tests,It is possible to build faster cars than the Hudson

Super-Six Special, but the <r,iierlwav record of 104miles an hour for 200 miles, new hold by a HudsonSuper-Six Special, proves that endurance is moreimportant.

Faster cars have never been able to meet the*strain of such long distances.

Endurance is just as vital to you as it Is to thedriver on the speedway. Even though you maynot care for great speed, you do want endurance,Your car must be able to meet every service strain.

Our interest in racing Is not so much to eee howfast we can make the Hudson Super-Six. It iato demonstrate motor endurance. It-would taku toolong, at ordlnar) (hiring speed, to demonstrate theendurance life at A Super-Six. The spnedwnyIn a few hours calls for all the stamina required Inveara of ordinafy use. These racing tests are ofinterest because they show the endurance of aHudson Sapor-Six.

Race drivers are the most exacting critics ofcar performance. More Hudson Super-Six carsare used In racing than of any other niakci. Mostof them aro entered by proffttmlonal d i ivc i s whose
