But it was dis- covered as soon as the tradepaper came into the hands of its readers. In every mail delivered at its De- troit factory, the day after the trade- paper was published, the R-C-H Corporation heard of that mistake by which its car was advertised for $9 instead of 3900, the fegular price. The first day nearly a hundred letters were received in which were enclosed checks, drafts and postoffice and ex- press money orders for $9— and a request that the cars be shipped at once. This continued for weeks. From every point of the compass came a flood of telegrams and letters as well as many long-distance telephone calls from friends of the company and the car; many showing their good will by anxiously informing the officials of the mistake; others combining their friendly notification with gentle “joshin, Beyond necessitating the writing of explain the impossibility of selling the checks, drafts and money orders, the mistake caused no trouble at the fac- tory. Anxious bargain hunters were ssured that on several occasions the courts have ruled that such a ridicu- lous and patent mistake was in no binding on the advertiser; friends were thanked for their interest, and the incident was closed. & return from that single mis- he take was an important object lesson for us, in that we had an excellent demonstration of how closely the ad- vertising of the R-C-H 1is followed, aid President J. F. Hartz, of the R-C-H Corporation, commenting on the occurrence. “Though that mis- placed decimal point cost us a dollar or two in stationery and postage, it was 2 thousand times more valuable to us in showing that the people are interested in our care to the extent of closely telegrams from as far away as Deny and Salt e City warning us that a mistake had Deen made in our advertisement, from people we had never heard of.

All publica- have made similar errors, and i while such errors are annoying to the advertisers the great majority of them are quick to see that a publisher feels worse about it than themseives. The Bulletin has made such errors. It made one once in an automobile ad- for $5.85 instead of $585.00. The agent had forty Inquirles before 10 o'clock in the morning. He claimed it was a conspiracy on the part of the Bulletin to help his competitors and apologies and offers of the Bulletin were refused. He even cancelled his contract.

After running imto and through the Park a rendezvous has been arranged at Kaligpell, Montana, coincident with the Good Roads mee! ing of the Montona Good Roads Con- gress, which hae already been ar- ranged. A large number of entries have al- ready been made, particularly from St. Paul and Minneapolis, and it is ex- pected that the list of participants will be large as in any one of former tours, irrespective of the fact that the tours, have been made in more Popu- lous territory. If Congress creates a Committee on | Post Roads anoiher important move will have been made toward the logi- cal participetion of the National Gov- ernment in the highways progress of the country. Such action is quite probable in the special session now in progress in the adoption of a resolu- tlon introduced by Representative R. L. Henry of Texas, who is chairman of the Committee on Rules. In the past, good Toads measures have been referred to various commit- tees, with the usual result of second- ary consideration in the miscellaneous work of these committees. The sub- ject is now one of such commanding interest that it demands a committes which wilt give it first attention. In the growing consideration of good roads matters by Congress there is an unmistakable advance in the conten- tion that the National Government should concern itself along broad lnes relating to the inter-state phase rath- er than any plan which would require the Nation to do work very devolving upon the community. Pres. ident Wilson aptly expressed the logi- cal thought when at the American Road Congress he described roads progress as “threading the energies of a Nation together” and then com- mented upon the “fundamental im- portance that the United States should think in big pieces, should think ulti- mately as a whole.’ On the Boston Post Road betweon New Haven and New London automo- bilists will find it advisable to make the following detours from the main route. The Touring Department of The Automobile Club of America reports the Post Road closed between East Haven and Branford. To awoid this stretch the trip should be made via Totoket and North Branford where sharp turn is made to main routs. Owing to construction work on_ the main road between Flanders and New London; the Touring Departmeht sug- gests that motorists turn right just before reaching Flanders, making the run over good country road to Niamtic. From Niantic run through Gramite- ville and Waterford tc New London. With the excoption of the above named stretches, the Boston Post Road from New Haven to New Ton- don is in good condition.
