the law in Memphis against blowing car horns inside the limit That was a good or it I suppose depending on which end of he car horn you happened to he at Since men started to pus themselves around in horseless carriages theyve been passing laws about it ami some of them have been pretty foolish In the years Ive been around cars Ive tucked away a few of the stranger ones We might have had cars almost years sooner than we did for Instance If it hadnt been for an law passed around Steam coaches were operating in those days one man had three of them on a regular route of more than miles near London Another had nine steam buses on regular routes Bui then tame the famous Flag lav which required man to walk in front of the coaches with red ttun in the daytime and a red lantern at night The fare on the toll roads and bridges was raited and raised even in those days carriages were seen a good source of revenue and the first practical selfpropelled vehicles were forced off the roads As a result there was no advance in motor transporta tion until after when the silly were re- pealed Quite a difference from today when the buyer ex and gels some new advance in motoring every year The rapid advancement of automobile design and craftsmanship too that a car a few years old still has lots of dependable mitts economical transportation and even luxury in it In buying have even a wider range of choice than in baying a new car Ami room to splurge on a little luxury too without busting your bankbook Glad to show you how the next lime you drop around the lot Cars sometime make people
