HOTOR PILGRINAGE 10 SOUTH STARTS Thousands Go {o Florda by Ruto- mobile for the Winter Jacksonville, Wlorlda, Nov, 6, BSomebody in Maine or Minnesota dis- covered u few years ago that he could load his family inte the family flivver and drive to Florida for the winter at an expense about equal to the ratl- road fare for one person, Now motor cars, from the quiet running sedan to the rattiing, bang- ing filvver with frying pans, lanterns, ooffea-pots, buckets and other utensils attached all over them from radlators to spare tire racks, descend upon Tlorida in droves bearing the van- guard of the thousands of tourists who motor to the peninsular in the fall from all parts of the unlon. The movement I8 not éxpected to be in full swing hefore the middle of November, but for weeks they have been trickling through the gateways and by October 15 it was estimatéd that during the daylight hours one tourist car was_crossing the border over the three main highways every fifteen minutes, Some of the vehicles include contraptions never before seen on four wheels, One favored by many of the travelers is a chassis with a one room house upon 1t, equipped with everything from stationary wash basin to rocking chairs, The flivver with camping ' equip- ment suspended from every possible part of the car to which a bit of wire or cord can be attachéd, is the most common long distance traveler. A “hay burner'” lantern, one of the va- riety usually seen about farmhouses, may be attached to the radlator cap. Under the car may be swinging two or thrée water buckets, each filled with cooking utensils or other articles. A frying pan may be attached to a door handle and the running boards usually are weighted down with bag- gageé and the inevitable small tent that may be erected within a few minutes when the tourist finds a likely place to stop for the night. Every city and town in Florida along the motor routes within the last few years has established a camp site, and in the case of those on the outskirts of the larger places, are equipped with elec- tric lights, watér mains and sewerage. Every camp now is under the super-’ vision of the state board of health and one sanitary engineer devotes his en- tire time during the winter to the in- spection of them, BRIDGEPORT BROKER' MAY BE EMBEZZLER James Havens, Who Went Bankrupt Today, Is Named in Warrant Made Out By Prosecutor Bridgeport, Nov, 6.—A warrant charging James Havens, stock brok- er, with embezzlement, was issued to- day by Prosecuting Attorrey Vincent | L.
