r Hi * r-V fe The Best Car On The Market 1 rJ , The Jackson is the best nil around car on the market to-day. The car is good in all of its parts. It is a leader in simplicity , in f power and in durability. It is so simple of operation that anyone can run it. And then , too , the price is reasonable. The Jackson has made its reputation on the fact that no hill is too steep and no sand is too deep for it. This is not simply an idle claim but it is an actual fact which will be proved to your satisfac tion if you will give us an opportunity to demonstrate the car to you. JOHN S.

( CotUnueil ) from i ) R one ) of the state. My father , who went by rail , and the two gentle- meu of our party , attended the trustee meeting of the Theolog ical Seminary of which Mr. Xandcrs is a graduate. During the meeting we walked around the college grounds and sat be neath the shade of its stately trees. At 10:30 : we attended the installation services of Rev. Irvin - vin Hock De Long D. B. Ph. D. as professor of Hebrew and Old Testament science , in the beau tiful chapel of the seminary. The singing of so many of the clergy was inspiring. At the close of the meeting we met uany old friends and a number of the professors and made many new acquaintances. At one o'clock we were honor guests at the Alumni banquet , in the im mense dining room , where 250 people were seated at four tables the length of the room all beautifully decorated with rod and white carnations. After such a feast of good things , a few toasts seemed too long to be thoroughly enjoyed , but when the Rev. Cinder , of 13vans City , was introduced by the toast mas ter , he prefaced his remarks with a funny story that put every body in a good humor indeed many times he was interrupted by laughter and applause. When I met him later I said his toast was full of spicy things , his name should be Ginger. There were many inquiries about Mr. Xanders and the work in the west. Friday morning at ' ) :30 : the ad vance guard of the Norristo'Aii automobile endurance contest , passed through York , scattering paper shavings to guide the con testants on their way. Tin's was an entirely new experience to me and so facinating , I stood for two hours watching them pass our house on the principal street of the city. Fifty-six cars of many makes and styles , left Nornstown at 6:30 : a. m. one minute apart. According to the rules and regulations of the con test , if an auto arrived ahead of time at any of the checking places , it was out of the race , so it happened that one car live minutes ahead of time was oblig ed to go so slow , for two blocks , that you could hardly sec the "wheels go 'round , " because they dared not stop. Pennants of the different cities along the route were Hying from every car. The men all wore rubber coats or linen dusters and glasses , and were brown with dust. They all went spinning by , some at the rate of 25 miles an hour , and the men in nearly every car waved their caps or hands to us , one car full of "jolly good fellows" wav- ck beer bottles. The chaffeurs were nearly all owners of the cars. The run was 1K5 miles to llagerstown , Maryland the first There were at least a doxen ladies in the party , and how they could stand the strain 1 cannot understand , for it certainly must be nerve racking.
