CARS SHOWN IN
16 MODELS AT NEW STORE

The H1lladav is out with some new
models. They are the very latest,
raciest cars of all the classy cars.
They ride like a cradle and go like the
wind. The Halliday car shown above
Is a business car for busy men or a
pleasure car for leis'-re men.
The Halliday certainly is blossoming
out for 1911, and while not jot or
little of the sturdiness that has al
ways made this line noted has been
sacrificed for beauty, it's designers
have laid on the lines of beauty which
singles this car out of the crowd as
an aristocrat among motor cars-12S-
inch wheel base, 36-inch wheels and
a powerful engine which will drive 1t
over hills like a racer. 1t is stripped
of every projection till it looks like a
greyhound, and there is no doubt but
that there will be an active demand
for both the forty and so horsepower
cars.
All 16 models of the Halliday this
year are beauties, ranging in price
from $1150 for the 110-inch, 24-horse-
power roadster up to the 50-horse-
power, 128-inch limousine at $3600

TRAVELLING MAN REPLACES
TONNEAU WITH KITCHEN

M. G. Carville, who is a travelling
representative for a computing scale
company is making his rounds in a
Warren Detroit thirty, which appears
to be equipped for a trip around the
world. He has removed the tonneau of
his car, on the rear of the cars frame
has mounted a compartmentNso ingeni-
ously constructed that 1t is possible for
him to carry a complete housekeeping
equipment therein.
One part of the special compartment
is a complete refrigerator, which con-
sumes about fifty pounds of ice every
three days. The traveller opened this
and a curious crowd gathered to peep
in at ice cold bottles Of beer, fresh veg
etables, meat and other delicacies Of
the seacon. There is an alcohol stove,
washboard, dishes and other house,
keeping equipment packed on the car.
Strapped on the top of the compart-
ment are two neatly contrived trunks
carrying wearing apparel.
Carville has forsaken the railroad
entirely. With him travels his wife,
and the pair seldom stay at a hotel
preferring to camp by the roadside in
a tent carried on the car.
The couple have Travelled 1926 miles
in the last six weeks, and have not yet
had puncture. This is the fifth car
which Carville has owned, He gives
his wife credit for the design.

Nogales Agent for Diamond Tires
Says Increasing Auto De-

Fl. J. Karns Of the Sonora Auto
company, Nogales, Ariz., was IN LOS
Angeles this week replenishing his
stock of Diamond tires, for which ne
is agent. In conversation with Man
ager r. o. Nelson of the Diamond
Rubber company he related many m
teresting things pertaining to auto
mobile and mining conditions in the
Mexican states of Sonora and Smaloa.
While the use of automobiles was as
yet confined principally to American
mining men and others, the MeXlcans
are beginning to appreciate its use
and another year or two will find them
owners of machines. Good field Tor

in those states where American ways
have been introduced.
The citizens of Nogales, Arlz., ana
Nogales, Mex, are strictly up to date
Recently they raised $4,000 to build
an auto road from Nogales to Altar
Mex, the center of the new big placer
mining district The road was COM
pleted two weeks ago and turned over
to the Mexican government. 1t Is
eighty miles long, as against 130 miles
by the old train and stage service. A
regular automobile service has been
installed.

BY December / the same automobile
company will have a stage service
from Altar to Port Lobos, the new
port on the Mexican coast. WharVes
are being built, and by April l next
there will be a railroad from Port Lo-
hos to some point on the El Paso &
Southwestern RAILROAD.
The whole country-the states of So
nora and Sinaloa-is adapted to au-
tomobile travel. English-speaking
people and accommodations may be
found everywhere.
The Altar placer district is said to
be very rich. The gold in the shape
of nuggets, large and small, is found
in a concrete formation, extending in
some cases to a depth of 800 feet
While the gold is found all through
the concrete, there are channels or
runs in which the deposits are richest.
The concrete formation extends clear
to the sea.
The American miners usually follow
the old diggings of prehistoric times.

though the miners, with their crude
methods, scarcely more than scratched

in Los Angeles is used for breaking

tive machine, Is much used.
Some of the companies are planning
to bring salt water from the ocean,

new Aid was but the daughter of the
old, and the honor of the old was but
reflected by the new, whose work with

the pastor and president would go on
forever

$1,000 raised within the year, and

the record of the old and present Aid
Societies the Aid of the future will
be marvellous for works of love. She
sees great educational features devel-
oping the members, and with such
leaders as they now have the progress
of the future Aid will be indeed mar
velous. She closed with this:
They talk about woman's sphere,
As though it had limit;
There's not a place in earth or
heaven
There's not task to mankind given,
There's not blessing or a woe,
There's not whisper, Yes, or No,
There's not life, or death, or BIRTH
That has a feathers weight of
worth
Without woman in it."
Mrs. w. E. Swift was next called on
for toast, The Aid as a Social
Factor in the Church" She said the
Aid was closely allied to the pastor
and the church board-a living being,

Soon after the arrival of the latest

melon pile was announced. The fine
grove was jammcd with visitors
whose mouths were watering for the
luscious feast, and a score of willing
assistants rapidly served the throng
with Rocky Ford libcrality.
The waste OF melons seemed wicked
to city visitors, many of the guests
eating out the choice core of melon
and throwing aside the great bulk OF
the 2S-pound red corcd beauty. Even
this great freedom OF distribution did
not exhaust the mammoth rick until

that the comfort and pleasure we get

they invested in Watermelon Day at
the Arkansas Valley Fair. and now
nothing can rob them of the pleasant
and profitable memories OF day well
spent.
No matter what may interfere-a

i'll fortune-and cause change oi

of the valley to cut Gut the great

scheme of human happiness, On that
great day they know from past exper-
