A 4 vil war veteran of Gardner, Mass, doesn't let his seventy-three summers inte his enjoyment of the red-blooded sport of motor cycling. The veteran has been a devotee of the game for ten years. He is hale ad hearty today and can turn a handspring so slick that it makes the young fellows green with envy. Mr. Varney get more pleasure out of his motor than anything else and Because they did not seek it in the ordinary way, it is all the more impressive that sales pre- cedence should have been their product.

The plan calls for the holding of mo- tor oycle tours and outings all over the ocountry, in which riders. their wives, swecthearts and friends join in making a success.

In gev- eral of these states the bills have al- ready been strongly indorsed by Senate committees and the final pass- age of them appears to be assured.
