The New London Automobile club is now fully organized and will soon begin its efforts in behalf of bettering the conditions of the highways lead- ing into the city and to adopt plans that will result in stricter obedience to law, and to see that the example of the members are emulated by visiting some of whom take in manipulating their automobiles, and really do escape even police warning. In Rhode Island, the automobile reg- istration last week passed the 9,000 mark, The filling in of “dead” num- bers with new registrations has not been followed closely for the past vear and it is evident me the proportion of numbers outstanding which do not represent cars is quite large. In the opinfon of state officials over 2,000 “dead” cars are represented in the list as it now stands. Up to the present time the registra- | tion business in Rhode Island is nearly forty per cent. ahead of last year's record for the corresponding date, and it is believed that flve numerals will be reached in the registration. The total receipts up to the first of May a Year ago were $19,995, and for the same period this year the receipts are $27,669. Next month the board expects to issue fully 8,000 renewals of li- censes to operate cars in addition to the usual amount of new business. Dr. Joseph Higgins of Manchester, Conn., visited his parents in Westerly this week. He made the trip in an automobfle that attracted attention and caused favorable comment. The car is far out of the ordinary in ap- pearance and seems to be specially fitted as a physician’s car. It was dif- ferent from any automobile seen in Westerly. Unless the police take some actiom in regard to the conduct of automo- biles in New London, citizens who live along the line of sections selected for speeding, will make formal request for redress by petitioning for relief through the good offices of the state olice. The motorcycle squad of that body d4id some effective work for a short time in New London last summer and it is probable that they will be asked to come earller in the season and stay later, An interesting phase of the automo- bile business, and one which seem to indicate that this iry is still in its infancy, by the constantly growing dems: light motor delivery wagons for gro- cers, bakers, markets, laundries and other merchants of the smaller cit and towns, as well as the departme stores, express companies, etc, in the larger cities.

Fournier. past ER e The whole state is benefited by the advertising which good roads give. The people of the cities, who pay a fair share of the state taxes, are among those who use such main lines, snd thus get their money's worth, The business interests of the people of the whole state, the valuation of real property, the welfare of the ycitizen- ship, all are enhanced by the construc- tion of main line reads. If built and maintained under state supervision « uniformity of excellence is achieved which is one of the chief charms of a good road. Mrg Automobile Owner, how would you @ke to chase a. deer in a high- power touring car? A Danielson man tells about such an experience while ariving along a lonely piece of state road in the tewn of Sterling, The deer leaped into the roud just whesd wf the maehine. The driver opened up and gave bis machine every bit of power that he could get. That desr hit a 46-mile clip, 20 feel to the jump, The driver says that the animal was going so fast when it came to a turm in the read that it appareatly ceald not make it and went into the brosh like a bullet.

When a prisoner goss to Bresklyn jail nowadays, though they are net going vgry often, the chances are about 10 to 1 that they make the trip in an automobile Deputy Sheriff | George F. Holbrook of Putnam takes all the prisoners from the city court | there over in his machine, as doas Chief Pilling from the Danislson town court, One bum recently remarked as | e was riding over: “I have looked | at these things and felt of them and | dodged them for ten years; but this Is | the first time I ever got next to & ride in ome.

It is about the worst spectmen of road that a man can find in this part of the state. Many an automobilist prays | that it be fixed; others do something | else besides pray when they think of |it. The Titanic among the icebergs | was in only a little worse predicament, some of them say, than a man in a touring car on that awful Lisbon road. What good roads will do in atraet ing tariff is shown on a ro betweer Moosup and Danlelson, the Waure gan road.

It is a beautiful village, rich in historical associations and delightful to look upon. There is comfort there, too, for the traveier at an inn that many automobilists are coming to know about. From Daniel- son a fine state road leads to Brooklyn, only four miles distant.
