The highway to and from New York and northern New Jersey via Trenton and Camden will prove still more attractive on the opening of the Delaware River Bridge. Along this highway are historic Bordentown and Burlington, the latter antedating Philadelphia in its founding. In passing through Camden, a city now of great industrial importance, opportunity offers to visit the home and the grave of Walt Whitman, apostle and pioneer of democracy in poetry.

SPACE
PACE will not permit giving here a complete digest of the Pennsylvania Motor Law, but

this may readily be obtained from automobile clubs, tourist guide books, and many other sources. Important points to observe are: Speed limit, 30 miles per hour, except at “Danger Run Slow” signs: glaring headlights are forbidden; when two vehicles approach an intersection together, that coming from the right has the right of way. Light signals (Red for "Stop," Green for “Go," White for "Left Turn") will be found at many intersections, both in and out of the city, usually suspended high above the centre of the intersection, but often, especially in the city, high and at one side. Within the city motorists should be on the alert for such signals, also for “One Way Street” signs (very frequent), and for “No Left Turn" signs.

Nothing is being left undone to insure the comfort of the many thousands of motorists who will journey from all parts of the United States and Canada to the Sesqui-Centennial International Exposition. Great tourist camps are being provided, additional garages, permanent as well as temporary, are being erected, and virtually the entire eastern half of the country is being remapped for the benefit of the auto-tourist.

One large tourist camp alone is to occupy sixty acres. It is to be located within the city limits and close enough to the exposition site to be convenient. Supply stores and booths are to be erected on the tract, and there will be an assembly centre, recreation spaces, an athletic field, shower baths, and ample modern sanitary conveniences. A sub-committee of the Sesqui-Centennial Automobile Traffic Committee is now selecting sites for smaller camps to be located in other parts of the city. Special arrangements are being made to insure the safety of all machines left at these camps while their owners are visiting the exposition or on shopping tours.

The 2000 public garages in Philadelphia will of course be inadequate, but many others are being erected by private capital. Those proving worthy will receive official recognition from the exposition authorities, the chief purpose being to recommend the best to visitors, assuring them that they will receive proper treatment.

Near the exposition grounds great parking spaces are to be provided, with a capacity of more than 50,000 automobiles. A special police guard will be on duty here at all hours. The exposition authorities plan to be able to assure all persons making use of the parking privileges that their machines, accessories, equipment, and other property left in them will be as immune from theft as if locked in a safe deposit vault.

The remapping plan is perhaps the most extensive ever undertaken for a special occasion. This great task has been assumed by the National Highways Association, which is obtaining from the highway departments of nineteen eastern states all of the accurate road data that they have been years in assembling. With this material the Association plans to prepare a group of the most accurate road maps ever developed for the territory; with the assistance of all motor clubs in the region the most authentic information obtainable with respect to landmarks, distances, and road conditions will be included in the maps. The location of all public garages and service stations will also be marked. For detailed information apply to:

EXPOSITION-PHILADELPHIA, 1926

F
ROM June 1st until December 1st, 1926, Philadelphia will be the scene of a great com-

memorative festival planned to mark the 150th anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence.

The Sesqui-Centennial International Exposition is under the leadership of Mayor W. Freeland Kendrick, president; Ernest T. Trigg, vice-president; and Colonel David C. Collier, director general, who was Commissioner General for the United States at the Brazil Centenary Exposition held at Rio Janeiro in 1923.

The exposition will be a World's Fair larger in area than any previously held in this country. It is to occupy the entire 670 acres of League Island Park in South Philadelphia. It will open with more than 100 buildings housing industrial, historical, agricultural, and mineralogical exhibits from all parts of the globe. The Palace of Liberal Arts, covering nine

. acres, now under construction, will be completed in 75 working days. One of the four great structures which will form the nucleus of the exposition will cover 19 acres. Wartime methods of construction are being employed by the entire engineering forces of the city to complete the buildings in record time. Various States and foreign governments are pushing plans for scores of smaller buildings. The central buildings will flank a spacious court, 1400 feet long, which, according to architectural plans, will be a boulevard of beauty. A stadium with a seating capacity of 125,000 is fast rising on the grounds. Immediately outside, parking space is being provided for 50,000 automobiles.

The keynote of the exposition will be found in its portrayal of the progress of an age unprecedented in the march of human advancement. For diversity of achievements and immensity of enterprise the past generation has never been equaled. In big things and little, the exposition will reflect the age of the telephone and the radio, the automobile and the airplane, the electric light and the dynamo.

Throughout the period of the exposition great historical pageants and athletic events will be held in the stadium. Important historic events of the Revolutionary period will be staged with great attention to costumes and to detail. Important collegiate football games, it is expected, will be held in the huge bowl as well as amateur athletic games, rivaling the Olympics.

The amusement centre of the exposition will be known as the "Gladway." It will include 130 acres.

Venetian gondolas in gayest colors, and fifty business-like motor launches will carry pleasure-seekers over the lakes and lagoons. An accurate reproduction of Solomon's Temple in the days of its glory will cover a tract of 23 acres. A Tyrolean mountain scene will provide background for some of the main buildings.

The Philadelphia Navy Yard with its huge aircraft factory and airdrome will be the centre of great aeronautical contests and an aerial exposition to be held in connection with the fair. Almost daily airplane squadrons will fly to the exposition from Selfridge Field, Michigan; Langley Field, Virginia; Boling Field, Washington, D. C.; and Mitchel Field, New York. It is planned to hold here the annual speed contest between the crack fliers of the Army, Navy, and Marine Corps.

League Island Park, where the exposition is to be held, is only seven minutes from the heart of Philadelphia by automobile.

The background of the exposition will of course be old Philadelphia, with its historic byways and boulevards. Historical interest will naturally centre around Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence was proclaimed on July 4, 1776. The Liberty Bell, on view in this building, is expected to attract many thousands of visitors to the nation's shrine. Estimates show that possibly 50,000,000 persons will attend during the six months that the fair is open.
