San Francisco to Celebrate.

Sam Francisco having put her house
in order has extended an invitation
to the Golden Gate in mid October
to the nations of the world to come
and see the results of her handiwork
and be her guests at the big festival
that is to celebrate the rehabilita.

covery in 1859 Of the BAY of San
Francisco by Don Casper de Porto.a,
first Spanish Governor Of California.
From this the celebration has taken
its name and Is known as the Portola
Festival.
In the latter part of April, 1906, the
greater part of San Francisco exist

, acres, comprising the heart of the
city, had been devastated by fire in
the greatest disaster of modern times
More than $4,000 buildings had been
converted into pile of smoking
ruins and the loss of life reached
the appalling total of 3O,0OO,OOO.
Within forty months San Francisco
has built herself out of herself. A
modern city of marble and granite,
far more beautiful and substantial
than the old city, has been reared
and but a scar here and there re-

OPENS NOV. s

With all important race meets of
1909 a matter of history, with the
exception Of the classic Vanderbilt,
which is scheduled for October 80,
the attention of the motor world
is focused on the automobile shows
which will soon be in full swing,
opening. with the National Automo-
bile Show at Atlanta, Ga, on No
vember 6. u
Coming so early in the season,
the Atlanta show has caused the
makers of cars and accessories to
make unusual early preparations,
with the result that the public will
see the new offerings at an earlier
date than heretofore. OF course
the southern public will be more
benefited than those in other parts
of the country, excepting those who
will travel to Atlanta from distant
points to take in the weeks racing
on the new two-mile track and the
show which will follow.

AUTO D0N'TS

Do not fill the gasoline tank at
night unless it is necessary and
then never near-a uncovered light.
Keep the gasoline tank and all
gasoline pipes free from sediment.
Above all, see that there is no sedi-
ment in the carburettter.
Renew your supply of gasoline at
frequent intervals, even though 1t
may be necessary to purchase only
a gallon to fill your tank.
1t is not advisable to lubricate
fiber band brakes, but If they
should become noisy little grease
makes better silencer than oil.
Buying a tire pump without a
pressure gauge on it is a saving
that costs many dollars in tire
wear, the extra wear being due to
improper initiation.
On long trips take an extra can
filled with gasoline. The regular
supply Is sometimes improperly es
timated, and it may run short be
tween stations where it is impossi
BILE to secure fresh supply.
When an acetylene lamp lights
quickly with a yellowish flare, il
is a sign of a leak somewhere. A
lamp in good order should light uT
slowly with a kissing noise, follow
ed by a pure white flame.
Before starting out each morning
be sure your gasoline tank is filled
1t is a good plan to carry cham
OILS skin and have the gasoline
strained through it. This removes
water and other foreign matter.

to Seattle and played them last
year. So far, U. of w. has refused
w. S. c. game. 1t is evident
that she Is afraid of them, as she
has recently cancelled a game with
Wh.tworth. 1t is said of U. of w.
that she will not play any team un-
less she is sure of the victory. This
may be hearsay, but the cancella-
ton of the Whitworth game seems
to bear this out, as that university
has on its team Tanner, the negro
player; two Carlisle Indians, and
number of college men, who
would no doubt put black mark
against her by beating her. She
has, however, some fine players in
her ranks. Wee" Coyle, quarter
back; Akin, tackle; Tiegmeier, left
end, are among the number. She
has games this season with Whit
man and Idaho, and it is to be
hoped that she will consent to a
post-season game with w. S. c. at
Spokane some time in December.

$500 for starting in "a hours track

of winning $1,000 and gaining like
