Baker Blair Has Gasoline Buggy.
D.W. BLAIR and his daughter Miss Minnie went down to Parsons yesterday afternoon to bring up their new Ford motor car, which they purchased at the Ford agency there. They with their chauffeur came back in the car yesterday evening, making the trip in two hours. The roads were fair. The machine is a four cyclinder, water cooled motor with a shaft drive transmixsion. It is the model T of the light tourning car, carries five passengers, and is painted in a marine green.--Chanute Tribune.
