The Museum is in need of larger garage s})ace in order to enable it to 

 accommodate the automobiles of our employees who drive in to their work. 

 Among new accessions in this department may l)e mentioned: Mr.

 sedan. As further motor news, we are told that Charlie AUgoever, who

 know how he feels about it. Mr. Blaschke's *'old Henry," the Ford 

 that's been making the run from Cold S}iring, New York, and given 

 hard service for the ))ast four years, still holds title as "the best of the 

 lot." 



Dr. G. CJyde Fisher spent Thanksgiving at his old hoinc^stead in
