The Automotive Service Company As distributors in this territory for the Service Motors, Inc., Wabash, Ind., manufacturers of Service Trucks. Service Trucks are designed with a thorough"" understanding of truck-operating conditions. They are built to do the work you will require of them with the minimum of attention or care. They are designed for continuous service under the most exacting conditions. All the valuable features of truck design that our twelve years of specialization in truck-building have developed are embodied in the Service Trucks of today. Experimental construction is rigidly excluded until it is unquestionably perfected and proved. Service Trucks, while not the highest priced trucks made, are not sold at a low price. If they were, they could not be good, but they are positively the lowest price and cheapest truck in the end, by reason of their long life, comparatively light upkeep expense and reasonable price on repair parts, and their ability to give the greatest ton mileage for the least cost.

William T. Borsukiev/icz, the Polish globe trotter, passed through Towson, stopping at the Court House, where he obtained the signatures and seals of some of the officials, who certified to his presence here. Included in his immense collection of autographs is that of President Coolidge, together with the latter's seal, besides those of 24 Governors of the United States, including a letter from Governor Ritchie, of Maryland. Borsukiewiez is accompanied by an overgrown Boston Bull, which, he says, caused him some trouble by frequently fighting with hungry curs in Mexico. He has covered most of the United States in a flivver, but says the greater part of his trip was made afoot. His next big jump will be> to China and Japan, the languages of which countries he is now studying. He already speaks eleven languages. Borsukiewiez stated that a European museum has agreed to pay him $5,000 for his collection of autographs at the termination of the trip. ----------o---------- SEPTEMBER FURNISHED A VARIETY OF WEATHER. The month of September was wet compared to some other months during the past year. On the two last days of the month the antics of Jupiter Pluvius boosted the total up to 6.29 inches. The month was cloudy and cold. There were but thirteen clear days out of the 30. Four were partly cloudy, and 13 were cloudy. The mean minimum temperature for the month was 62, and several days the thermometer dropped below 45. One day the fercury was as low as 42, when a very light frost was reported in some sections of the county. This occurred on the 11th. It was so light that the sun soon dispelled it before any damage was done. On the 29th of the month nearly an inch of rain fell. To be exact, it was .94 inch. The rain continued throughout the 30th, when 2.82 ins. fell. This m. a total of 3.76 for the two closing ^ iys of the month. Taking the entire month into account, there were 11 days on which rain fell. On the 7th and on the 25th the thermometer went to 43, making it uncomfortable for those who still wore their summer underwear. In contrast to this it waxed warm on the 8th, when Old Sol came back with a record of 84. He had previously beat this on the first two days of the month. From these figures September furnished a variety of weather which was part summer and part fall. For many months past the weather has been "turned around," as one man described it the other day. Farmers are at a loss as to the weather conditions. Snow would not surprise some during October, while others are saying that Indian summer might cause the flowers to bloom as late as Christmas. Who can tell? MISS ETHEL PRICE BECOMES BRIDE OF CHARLES MULLINIX. Miss Ethel Price, daughter of H. M. Price, formerly Warden of the Towson Jail, was married to Chas. Mullinix. The ceremony was performed at the Hamilton Baptist Church by Rev. Richard H. White. The couple left for a northern trip. The bride was associated with the County Agricultural Agent at Towson. ----------o---------- WORK PREPARATORY TO ASSESSMENT BEGUN.

ESSEX TO GET NEW SCHOOL BUILDING. A large delegation was informed by the Baltimore County Cchool Commissioners on Tuesday that a new school building will be erected at Essex to cost $123,000. CAT SEIZES FISHERMAN'S BAIT, THEN ATTACKS HIM. Bernard Lotz, 36 years old, went fishing at Bear Creek. He used minnows as bait, but for some reason the fish refused to bite. After several unsuccessful casts, Lots decided to move to another place. As he drew in his line a large cat, whic;i had crept up behind him, seized the baited hook. To prevent the cat from swallowing the hook Lotz attempted to retrieve his minnow. The infuriated feline attacked him and sunk its teeth in his right forearm. Lotz, who lives in the 300 block South Ann "street, Baltimore, had the injured arm cauterized at the Johns Hopkins Hospital. DELEGATION GOES TO RED CROSS GATHERING. Walter B.
