With registra. tion of automobi'es 16 per cent larger than last year, the fact that the motor fatality total for the eleventh month is 13 per cent smaller than a year ago, indicates progress in traffic control. It gives definite assurance, the committee feels, that many communities are on| the right track, and that from 1925 on there will be a yearly lowering ¢ these figures.

They compared, they enthused, they speculated, they counted over the family shekels, and then promised to drop in again soon. Out at the Van’ Sant Motor Co., the new Marmon appeared for the first time and came in for its share of the ohs and ahs from a crowd of people who gathered in the decorat- ed salesroom Sunday afternoon. The new Marmon fairly shouts “luxury” and is an imposing sight to say the least. They used to call the Jewett a wonderful performer, but if we are to take stock in the tales of hun- dreds who rode in the very latest product of the Paige Jewett grinder, we must bow to the 1925 model as the king of them all.
