Bob Contracts The Auto Fever

Robert E. McNew, bookkeeper at the wholesale grocery firm of the H. T. Hackney Co., of this city, figured among our citizens last week who were purchasers of automobiles. Bob's machine is a five-passenger Ford, which he purchased from the Middlesboro Auto Garage Co., who are now sole agents for the Ford in this section. Other bachelors in Middlesboro contemplate following Mr. McNew's example in buying automobiles.
