Keep this perfect stomach -doctor in NEWTOWN Mr. Van Hayes of Bridgeport was a Sunday visitor at his home in San- Jy Hook returning Sunday night. Mr. Hayes has now ' been a weekly com muter between Newtown and Bridge port for over twelve years, and would come home every evening and return next morning if the trains made it possible. It certainly is a short-sighted policy em the part of the railroad - management . to reruse to put on, an ' early morning train which would con venience - at least a score of com muters from, here daily, and would be welcomed by commuters down the line. There, was such . accommoda tion train formerly for workers in the shops of Bridgeport, which, later. was dropped for the benelit of a. Tiandful of summer patrons. . This was patronized well, and would be again To bring such a result about again is a desideratum which is re spectfully submitted to the Men's tlub and the other civic organizations in town .dedicated or consecrated to the uplift "of Newtown. It is an -object worthy their best efforts. The following business men went to Bridgeport yesterday: Messrs. George F. Taylor and William Hayes of tHe Brick store, Sandy Hook, and Mr. G. F.

Fourteen residents of Newtown are xiow. employed, on the State road im jrovements at Botsford under Super- Intendent Crosby. First Selectman W. . C Johnson should be given credit for 1 this, as well as all his efforts to se cure for the citizens of Newtown the financial benefits coming from all -work within the limits of the town. Protection and- encouragement of home labor is surely a slogan that appeals -to everybody- in town regard - less of politics. It certainly is also r good policy on the part of the state 4 to let every community thus share In its bounty, provided, the interests 1X5 WEST RATES TO CAI.TFORXIA, Oregon, "Washington, "Montana, , Nevada.

Columbus, O. Adv. : coupe car, suitable -bothxior summer i and winter. By the dealers this is ' ascribed to several causes : First, v the advanced comfort which is displayed, by the interior construction. Sec ond, the fact that where intended for family us rather thart for ' the man of the house, only, the interior drive has proven more adaptable. Third, that upholstering design can be car ried to a far greater artistic perfec tion than can the car open ; to all weathers. " Fourth, that the beauty of line, such as -displayed in the sedan, colonial or coupe model is far ad vanced over the touring or runabout type. ' Speed motorists have been partidu lariy . enthusiastic over two high powered roadsters of the National and Moon- types.. Each guaranteed from 60 to 7 Omiles per hour, 'built low, with graceful curvature of body, has drawn many envious eyes, and that utility will be sacrificed to speed by many of the promised buyers seems certain before the show has ended. The delivery or truck exhibits have been well patronized, "merchants awak ing rapidly to the great necessity of dispatch and surety in moving their product. There is a great variety of-4 commercial car displayed,,"from which buyers may choose. From the small delivery wagon, adapted to the butcher baker or grocer, there mingle freely with the pleasure car, handsome exj press bodied, trucks capable of carry ing from one to five tons, and many a chassis capable, of sustaining loads of six to seven . tons are on the floor. Among the many pleased exhibitors of both touripg cars and trucks,' is S. T. Velle, in charge of the. Abbott Detroit and Seldon display. With four cars on show, he has already dis posed of two cars and one truck. This boothe shows one 50 h. p., 4 cyl. seven - passenger, blue touring body, upholstered in the " latest Turkish leather," with 2 inch cushions, electric self-starting and lighting plant, mohair top with patent Jiffy curtains. It is driven by a Continen tal motor on the unity power princi ple. Its running gear includes a 121 inch wheel base with 36 by 4 1-2 de mountable rims. There is also a five passenger touring car of similar specifications with demi-tonneau of a beautiful, green. A model 34-40 h. p. passenger . touring Abbott with 118 wheel base completes the- pleasure craft. ' .. Arrangements are being completed whereby it is hoped to have Aviator Harry Jones make several detours above the city, lighting near the show. and later entering his flying machine among the exhibits Owing to the variability of air currents in this vicinity, however, definite arrange ments have not been completed, but Thursday and Friday, were the days discussed last night. A large. Seldon Truck to which has been surmounted a vivid green ex press body over red running . gear, makes a fine showing, especially as it has already been decorated with the name of the purchaser. The Reinhardt Express Company, of Danbury. The ISeldon truck is of the 40 h. p. type. four-cylinder motor capable of carry ing from one to one and a. half tone. The Elm Auto Company, in the lead both with the number and variety of the cars displayed, was again the cen-i ter of attraction the enclosed coupes receiving a large percentage of the in terest stimulated by the magnificent offerings about the hall. Two models in particular were the focus of femi nine fancy. The first, a Studebaker Sedan, 4-cylinder, 35 horse, with ite classy exterior and artistic interior, comprising Pullman seats and trim mings, was the constant refuge of tired couples. 'Probably no individual design in the show attracted more at tention, as built upon the lines what ere used in the old days when hu man backs carried the Elizabethan dame from state assemblage to home, its quaint features were retained when with modern ingenuity the power of the twentieth century was made to replace the load upon man. A Wavery Electric, with Its ease of operation, yet having all the comforte of the home parlor, without the be setting difficulties which sometimes face a woman .of mechanical inexperi ence, was another of the Elm Auto models which attracted feminine fan cy. Among the Pope-Hartfords exhibit ed the Model 31, 4-cyl. 40 horse, four passenger car wais greatly admired. It is of a beautiful Lake color, equip ped with Gray & Davis starting de vices, and with upholstered body to match, it presents a most attractive exterior. At the Moon space, the electrically lighted skeleton chassis,- which is blocked up to permit operation, of fered opportunities for close study of the simplicity which has been evolved in motor perfection and transmission of power. . A model Moon speed runabout which is also sold in 39 h.' p. with Bosch two point ignition, guaranteed to speed 67 miles an hour vied with the 48 horse car at a guaranteed speed of 71 miles an hour. Both are long, low and racer like in appearance and the younger aggregation of visitors were in constant observances of the demon trations. Besides Henry Drucker, cordially greeting the visitors to this booth were I. Rosenberg, president and supervisor of the Moon Sales Co. of Bridgeport, and L. J. Goldman, Eastern District Sales Manager of the Moon Motor Car Co. At the exhibit of Maxwell and R-C-H cars, Harry M. Ford Is welcoming .Ms many friends and patrons, and re ports sales are progressing with a dis play of the new models which have been put out by the companies he represents. The Lyford Brothers' showing of Oakland roadsters and touring cars with their unique "V-shaped radiators and handsome trimmings is one of the meeting places - of . the show. The Cadillac booth with its large cars of magnificent design and me chanical perfection . appealed to the spectator. Its copper jacketed motors were particularly inspected. At the Buckley Station, the Paige and Lozier Cars, as well as the Gramm truck kept a corps of as sistants busy explaining the various exclusive devices utilized. Arthur I. Clark, smiling and happy, was the general handshaker of the evening, and. he was busy keeping the crowd in touch with his Franklin and Buick models. . He is assisted with representatives from the factories who are technically proficient' in a knowl edge of various types. Several sales are reported.' The G. iM. -C exhibit . of chassis trucks is preside " over by William El Norris in person, and his many friends and former patrons are gather ing nightly to inspect new models he has on show. .
