' Smnft InterrMlng light on how rxtrnsive
(fnd xpennive ara the methods Involved In
decorating Madlann Hquarr Garden for the
f.nth national automobile ahow, which will
be held there during the week of January
X to 18, shed at a recent conclave be
tween W. W. Knowleg, the decorator gen
eral, and the committee In charge of the
.how, the committee conalKtlng of Colonel
fleorgo Pope, chairman; Charles Clifton, K.
P. Chalfant and Secretary Merle 1.. Down.
The dlacusalon turned upon the detail of
the preparatory work which I now In
(progress. From the way the various Item
were dealt with It seemed almost as If
the committee was planning to create a
permanent hall of art tnxtead of a seven
jday affair In an exhibition building. It Is
almost unbelievable that so much elabora
tion ever would be entered upon for an
exhibition of motor cars. Already car
penters, sitn mnkers, woodworkers and
painters aro working xealously" on the
skeleton work for the decorative creations.
, In seeking to produce a proper setting
1 for the motor cars, motor cycles and ac
, cessorles, tho show manugers will not
; spare expense; this is made very clear by
: tha fact that more than $.10,OUO are to be
'expended for the .decorations. The annual
automobile show In the garden Is becoming
every year more important as a social
event, at which the latest fanhlons. In both
cars and costumrs, are displayed, and for
several years now It has been the affair
for which the Harden is most handsomely
decorated. White and gold are the colors
that have been soUcted to predominate In'
the decorative scheme next January, al
though crimson and green also will be
strongly in evidence. On the whole, the
tenth national show, under the auspices of
the Association of Licensed Autonjoblle
Manufacturers, at which are shown only
American cars, the output of representa
tive makers, will be brighter In its general
tone than any of Its predecessors.
Ma Mtaff Work lard.
At the show of last January the em
ployment of plaster statues and other
staff work was done away with to a great
extent. The forthcoming show will be
practically void of this rather tawdry
class of ornamentation and an effect of
solidity and masslveness will be produced,
together with a feeling of distance, breadth
and general roominess. At some former
shows, the visitor entering the garden
was confronted by a mammoth piece of
statuary which Interrupted the view of
Jthe ensemble on the floor beyond. This
' time a Roman seat, or fountain, which Is
not of a height to assert Itself offensively
and permits a comprehensive view of the
Garden, will be constructed opposite the
entranoe way to aid In the artful plan
of "opening up" the Interior. The foun
tain' will have a modest elegance and be
in the form of a low abutment of gray
stone .curving gracefully about the spaces
of those exhibitors that face the entrance
on the Madison avenue side. It will have
a trough-like basin, and at each end, arid
In the center, water from the mouths of
griffins and gargoyles will spray upon
the pool beneath made, iridescent by cun
ningly hidden lights. The falling water
also will be electrically radiant, of course.
There will be big and little goldfish and
natural pond lilies In the pool, and ming
ling with the natural lilies' will be artificial
water plants from which radiate other
varicolored lights. Carved Into the front
wall of the fountain will be a long settee
for the visitors. Two bay trees will be
seemingly growing through this seat.
As winter appears to be the season In
which the thouKhts of men turn to the
choice of cars for the coming spring and
summer, the fitness of things is met In the
date set for the show. At this show Is af
forded always the best opportunity to In
spect the product of the representative
American makers, who comprise the As
sociation of Ucensed Automobile Manu
facturers, and tinder whose auspices the
show la held. There Is promise of many
Interesting things In the 1910 models, and
the exhibition will bring out some new
wrinkles In construction and design which
will astonish those who are aware of the
progress being made toward standardisa
tion. That the modern, every-day motor car,
generally known as a stock car, has left
the misty sone of experiment and Is now
In the height of its practicability and use
fulness. Is strongly emphasised by the
many performances In hlll-cllmblng, tour
ing, speed and racing contests for this
class of car that have peppered" the auto
mobile sporting calendar of the year 1H09.
There will be a comprehensive display ut
the Garden show of duplicate models of the
stock cara that competed successfully In
the various sporting eventa of the year,
and some of the original cars will be
shown. Thanks to the adoption of certain
standards by the members of the Associa
tion of Ucensed Automobile Manufacturers,
the new model of a licensed maker does
not have to be put through years of prep
aration before It Is entered In competition
with other cars. Recently there have been .
victories won by certain makes of pars
that had scarcely competed in previous
events, and this condition of affairs Is
'thoroughly Inspiring to the public.
Something new, either great or small
will be found n nearly every one of the
models to be exhibited, and as some ex
hibitors cling to (lie old habit of keeping
something up the sleeve until show time,
there Is no telling what surprises may be
in store. It Is certain that some of the
new points of Interest will be found In
axles, transmlHslons and In lubricating
systems. In bodies, a type that seems to be
gaining favor Is the four-passenger surrey,
which Is but a tonneau without doors,
built low In the back and sides, yet pro
viding plenty of seating space. The cars
at the Harden show will range from the
costliest on the market down to the little
runabout that Is cheap enough for the
baker's boy almost. v
The large number of. accessory exhibitors
entered makes It certain that the display
of the component parts and fittings that
go to make tha motor car a vehicle of lux
ury will be very extensive and Interesting.
There will be every conceivable sort of ac
cessory on view, with the newest In wear
ing apparel, tne late.t In Ignition devices,
aelf-startera, etc., and an endless variety
in tops, tires, horns, lamps, etc.

tlon to t'onventlna at
St. Loili.
That the good roads Interest throughout
the country Is still attracting . wide atten
tion was clearly Indicated lat week In a
letter received by Secretary Frederick H.
Klllott of the American Automobile as
socistlon from President Ralph W. Smltli
of the Denver Motor club. Mr. Smith
speaks very warmly of the Interest among
motorists In his state in the coming Third
National Oood Roads convention, which
will be held at St. Louis next fall. That
the far west Is determined to show Its
growing Interest In the good roads move
ment at that time Is Indicated by the ac
tion already taken by the Denver Motor
club. Mr. Smith slating that at least fifty
delegates from Colorado have already con
sented to attend. He has Interviewed, the
Board of Public Works In Denver and rep
resentatives will be present from that
body. All of these men. adds Mr. Bmlth,
are Interested .In the good roads move
ment and It Is likely, he stated, that the
entire Board of Public Works will attend,
together with three of Its engineers.
ELECTRICS ARE MADE CHAINLESS
ew
Departure Seems to Meet with
Approval of I sera.
The most radical departure that has oc
curred In electric motor car construction
for many years Is the adoption of a bevel
gear shaft drive by some electric manu
facturer. Nearly all the gasoline car man
ufacturers have abandoned chains In favor
of the bevel shaft drive on account of Its
cleanliness, simplicity of construction, pro
tection against dirt and absence of lost
motion. The shaft drive requires no ad
justment and its constant lubrication glvei
practically unlimited life and reliability.
The mechanical efficiency of the shaft
drive heretofore In usp, however, was not
equal In efficiency to the well-deslgnad
chain drive, and since efficiency is of the
utmost Importance In electric cars, becaus;
of the limited amount of power secured
on one charge. It has not heretofore
seemed practical to use the shaft drive on
electrics. , ( y
The Baker company has used the bevel
gear with perfect success on their larger
type of cars, but has only succeeded after
many years of experimenting In p?rfect-
Ing an improved bevel gear shaft drive,
which Is suitable for small cars and which
at the same time excels In efficiency all
other forms of ( transmission. The com
pany has found from long experience that
the chain drive loses Its efficiency on ac
count of its imperfect lubrication, accumu
lation of dust and stretching of the chain,
and claims that their new bevel gear shaft
drive will maintain and even lncroaBa the
efficiency of the car the longer It Is
operated.
The bevel drive rear axle Is of the seml
floatlng type of the very latest design,
approved by the best engineers. To fe
cure lightness and greater strength the
entire rear axle housing la drawn from
iheet steel. All the bearings In this axle
are of the ball-bearing type of the high
est quality. The axle shafts and drive
shafts are made from special vanadium
alloy steel, carefully heat treated.
The differential Is of a special type and
all gears in the rear axle housing, Includ
ing the differentiating gears are made
from the highest grade steel obtainable
for this purpose. They have planed teeth
and are hardened by a special process. The
differentiating gears are mounted on a
three-arm member and careful provision is
made for a self-aligning movement of theke
gears.
The entire front axle hub Is drawn from
sheet steel and the hub pressings are ac
curately machined and fitted with ball
bearings of the best quality. The front
axle spring seats are machined from the
highest grade steel and the tube Is of spe
cial semi-spring temper steel with drop
forged yokes attached to the tubing by
electric welding process.
CHILDREN WARNED OFF HIGHWAY
Increase Traffic and Antomoblles
Increase the Danger.
In a letter sent out last week to the
president of the Board of Kducati6n and
the Children's Aid society, an appeal Is
made by the National Highways Protective
society to warn children of the danger of
playing In the streets, and particularly of
fooling around motor vehicles. The letter
la as follows:
Dear Sir: So immense has the automo
bile traffic become, the danger to the chil
dren of this city, due to the reckless driv
ing of Irresponsible chauffeurs, Is great, as
shown by the number of killed and maimed
during the month of October. Will you
not aend out to the several schools a
"warning?"
Many children attach themselves to
moving vehicles. Jump off, and are run
down by automobiles. They also dart out
from behind plies of brick, etc., on the
streets and highways, and In some cases
try to see how close they can get to an
automobile without being run over.

GOOD ADVICE IS "BUY NOW
Reasons ;lven by Old Omaha Hlejrcle
Maa for the General Advance
la Triers Daring Latter
Tart of Yrir,
"Those people who have been waitlns
for the price of automobiles to drop be
low par have another guess coming," said
W. J. Morgan. "Their stock arsument
In favor of their expectation is rather old.
They point to the tumble In the price cf
bicycles. Bicycles In 10 to IS! cost all
the way from $120 to JIM. For the last
five years you could buy that fame bicy
cle, or one as good as It. for about one
third of the price."
The low price hopefuls forget, however,
that bicycles were made In the days when
there were no rubber or steel trusts and
brfoie the era of aeroplane prices. These
days an article that has not soar.'d in
price Is looked upon with more or less
veneration. It Is quite possible If there
were as large a demand today for bicy
cles as there wns, say, ten years ago. the
price would be a little stlffer than It is
today for the famous two-wheeler.
itecentiy rumnnngs or advance In auto
mobile prices have been heard, and one
manufacturer with great bravery has told
the public that they must pay more, and
It now looks as If the other manufacturers
must cither economize In quality or cut
down the size of their automobiles if they
expect to !! them at a profit. There may
not be a general epidemic of pricj raising,
but fev. manufacturers will care to con
tinue to make automobiles unless there Is a
fair margin In so doing.
A. writer who is noted for his economy
Ih using the space of the dally newspaper
has something to say about the raise In
the price of one car. The lack of profit
In automobile making might account for
the battery of press agents that outdo the
gentlemanly burglar In prying their way
into the free news columns of the daily
press. The one young writer referred to
has this to say:
Claim o Large Profit.
"Contrary to the general opinion held
as to the profit on automobiles. It Is a
fact that the larger companies who have
been making automobiles on a business
basis for the last several years, do not
make a larger profit than In any other
standard line of manufacture.
"On November 1 the Maxwell-Brtscoe
Motor company announced a rise in the
prices on pome of their models. To those
who are Intimately connected with the
automobile business, this price advance
was expected and predicted. The reason
for this rise Is not hard to find.
"Raw material has been constantly ad
vancing In price. Crude rubber, for ex
ample, lias advanced tremendously dur
ing the last few years, and as a result
tires today cost from J30 to $'X a set more
than formerly, and what is more to the
point, this advance in rubber seems likely
to hold for some time to come. The
consumer as well as the manufacturer has
felt this tire advance, but It Is more
keenly felt by the latter because the tire
manufacturer has In the past given au
tomobile manufacturers a price somewhat
lower than the user. This was natural,
since the manufacturer bought in large
quantities. Now, all special prices to
manufacturers have been withdrawn so
that an automobile company has to pay
practically what the user does. Thus It
Is that on. the present basis tires are cost
ing the manufacturer a much higher price
than the advance itself would Indicate.
All Materials Advance.
"But tires are not the only material
that has advanced. Steels, hair, leather
have all gone up. Simply because the
producers of the raw material have not
been able to meet the demand. The po'ley
of the manufacturers has been to build
automobiles In enormous quantities and
sell on a low margin of profit. Never
has their percentage of profit amounted
to more than 15 per cent. Consequently,
when the cost of raw material has ad
vanced as it has, the prices on the cars
must necessarily go up.
"On some of their molets they, have been
able to reduce the coat of manufacturing
to a point which compensated for the ad
vance in material, i As, for example, on
the thirty-horse power, four-cylinder car,
which remains at $1,500. On the smaller
machines, as, for example, the twelve-
horse power runabout, the price has ad
vanced from 1560 to 1600, and on their
four-cylinder, twenty-two-horse power run
about from S&)0 to $900. .
"There may be still a large profit In
some automobiles, but among the large
producers It can be safely said that the
profit per machine Is probably lower than
that obtained irt making any other class
of machinery.
"For example. In the stationary engine
business a ten-horse power engine selling

The CHASE
at MuO pays the manufacturer 1100 profit,
while It Is affirmed by the Maxwell
Mriscoe Motor company that their $(100

It would seem that the advice to "order
now" your automobile, would be timely
and seasonable after reading the above.
DIARY OF AN UP-TO-DATE MAN

Some people think It costs a lot of
money to be thoroughly well groomed and
up-to-date, but Charles Plnkham Jones
everybody knows "Pinky" Jones, the "pink
of perfection" his women friends call him
keeps a diary that Includes an expense
account, with a glimpse of which your
correspondent was favored the other day,
and from It he Is able to give exact fig
ures as to what It costs a bachelor who
uses modern labor-saving appliances In
stead of a valet, to present himself every
morning at the bank the perfect pattern
of a well-groomed man. Here is the record

I pay 10 cents per hour, or 22 cents In
all. This does not take account of the cur
rent used In my electric clock, but as a
single kilowatt hour will keep that running
for ten years, It seems safe o disregard
the clock. ,
After this who will question the economy
of electric power?
The kilowatt hour is the unit of measur
ing electric current charged for by the
lighting company. It means the use of a
thousand watts of electricity, or the equiv
alent of one and one-thlrd-borsepower, for
one hour.
NEW POLICE PATROL AT CAPITAL
Fully Equipped Machine, to Carry
Twelve People, Delivered.
A police patrol automobile for the police
department of Washington, D. C, has re
cently been delivered by the H. H. Frank
lin Manufacturing company. It Is equipped
with an air-cooled, elghteen-horse-puwer
engine, has a blue body, with red running
gear and seats ten people Inside and two
outside.
It has facilities for use as a temiioriry
ambulance, the cushions from tha eeats
falong the sides being removable and the
hinged seats lifting to give lipase for
stretchers and other paraphernalia, 't'ne-.o
Is a medicine chest under the driver's sca
and a compartment for supplies back of
the seat, accessible from the inside. Tr.'re
are two brass lanterns, which are Instncly
detachable when needed. The body is pf
strong; and light construction and the up
per part is entirely encased with a meral
grtllwork. The driver la protected frwn
the weather by a glass front, a mackin"jh
apron ajid side curtains.
The motor car Is fitted with large pneu
matic tires, the use of which Is in con
formity with the idea of commercial car
tire equipment. In their favor it is an
nounced that they are more durable thi n
solid rubber tires, cost less for upkeeps nd
Insure easy riding, which also means longer
life to the entire automobile.

Kmll Gruenfeldt. chief engineer and de
signer of the Baker Motor Verlcle com
pany, has Just returned from Europe,
where he visited the automobile centers,
and through his wide acquaintance with
the leading European automobile manu
facturers obtained Inside Information In re
gard to the 1910 designs.
"The most remarkable tendency," said
Mr. Gruenfeldt, "Is toward the shaft bevel
drive, and the pioneer manufacturers who
have been making chain-driven cars for
many years are adopting this type of drive
because of Its many advantages. Panhard,
Bens, De Dietrich, Mors. Flat, Berllet and
others who formerly manufactured chain
driven cars exclusively, are -all gradually
changing to the shaft drive. For heavy
trucks of either power, the chain drive is
still standard on account of Its Inexpensive
manufacture and simple adaptability to
heavy work.
'.'The European electric," said Mr. Gruen
feldt, "Is only manufactured In the heavy
brougham and cab models, and there is a
great demand abroad for the light, easily
controlled electric runabout.
"The greatest objection to European elec-
.ilrs Is the use of very thin plates In the
jatterles, which, while they give a greater
.nileage at the beginning, are so short lived
that they are not practical. The series
wound motor is becoming standard and all
of the later models are of the single motor
type with double speed rductlon and shaft
drive. The "Hub" motor, built directly in
the wheel, which has been so much dls
cuHsed, is rapidly disappearing, due to its
Inefficiency In starting and hill climbing
and the frequent necessity of repairs on
account of the severe direct vibration of
the wheel on the road.
"Solid tires and cushion tires have both
been used abroad, especially for taxlcabs,
but on account of the heavy vibration of
the car and the loosening and breaking of
vital mechanical parts, they have been
practically discarded, and the late cars are
equipped with pneumatio tires. Even the
electric trucks and busses are being equip
ped with pneumatic tires of the twin and
triple type that Is, two or three Individual
tires side by side on the same wheel."
