AN AUTO TOUR. 
Essex Reader Writes Interestingly 
of a Five Days’ Trip Through 
the Mountains and in Maine. 
There is no way to see the White 
Mountains like seeing them from an 
automobile. It is the most interest- 
ing way to travel. We have demon- 
strated this by a five days’ tour 
through New Hampshire and a good 
portion of Maine. New England is 
beautiful beyond description, and 
by tracing the roads in all its vari- 
ous scenery, over mountains, along 
rivers and lakes, through valleys 
and farms, and towns and cities; 
all the beauties of its exquisite 
scenery come into view like the best 
of moving pictures, 
We left Essex at 10 a.m., August 
7th, Monday in a large Packard car 
from the garage of Perkins and Cor- 
liss, Gloucester, with Mr. KElroy 
Staples for our chauffeur. The car 
did our stunt so excellently that we 
are much enthused in favor of the 
Packard car. Mr. Corliss, with 
whom we had our business, was in 
every way so much of a gentleman, 
and so fair in all his dealings that 
we shall gladly seek him out again. 
Our chauffeur was in every way a 
most happy appointment. He has 
had eight years’ experience and had 
just returned from driving the dem- 
onstration despatch ear, fully ar- 
mored, in the mimic war game be- 
tween the Blues and the Reds. 
After running about a little in 
town, we headed for Georgetown, 
taking aboard the children, Roswell 
and Theodora, and getting lunch in 
Haverhill, where we left friends 
who had ridden there with us, we 
struck the twenty miles an _ hour 
speed for New Hampshire. Passing 
through Methuen, a beautiful town, 
we skirted the country edge of 
Nashua, and reached Manchester 
early in the afternoon. We found 
bad roads as we approached the city 
of Cotton Mills. In fact, we saw no 
roads worse anywhere on the tour. 
Had we come from the city of 
Nashua to Manchester, we doubtless | 
would have found better roads. We — 
made no stop in Manchester, but 
pressed on to Concord. The roads 
both sides of Concord are excellent. 
We made a brief stop in Concord, 
then pressed on to Franklin. Here 
we reached the foot-hills of the 
mountains. Between Concord and 
Franklin we had to replace two in- 
ner tubes and one shoe on our rear 
wheels, but a punctured tire seemed 
really a small item to us on a trip 
like this. 
Through Franklin, on to Bristol 
we go, reaching Bristol as the sun 
goes down, and coming into some of 
the most exquisite scenery of the 
whole tour. The road_ courses 
around the edge of the mountain as 
we approach Bristol, and the valley 
below, on the right, presents a view 
which we shall never forget. This 
valley was of the most fascinating 
green we ever saw. The farms had 
been mown sufficiently long for a 
new growth to get well underway, 
and rains had evidently been copi- 
ous, so that the vast fields and 
reaches of mountain sides were 
covered with a tint of green, rich 
and deep beyond expression. As we 
descended to the town, it seemed as 
if Bristol must be at the bottom of 
a deep hole among the mountains. 
Well; here we found it, and in the 
center of this enterprising town of
