sUBAGENcY PLACED

After a good deal of searching and a
careful investigation of most of the
cars at the big show, Lew Brothers of
Baker City, Ore, have taken the
subagency for the Badger in their To-
cality. The Southwestern Motor Car
company, 612 South Olive street, which
has the general agency for the entire
coast, has made arrangements to ship
a number of machines north at once
These will include both the touring car
and the roadster models, which have
created so much interest at the show
and it is anticipated that the demand
for the Badger will shortly be as pop
ular in the northern state as it has
become around Los Angeles. Messrs
Wall and Bird have been giving dem
onstrations constantly since the show
began and report that they expect to
be kept busy with their other demon
stration appointments for some time
after the show. They are. however
making immediate deliveries on all
sales.

MANY MACHINES RECEIVED

The policy of the Howard Automobile
company in rushing the heaviest pos
sible shipments of Bucks and Oldsmo-
biles to the coast is much in evidence
at the present time. The receipts of
Bucks alone at various California des-
tinations the past week are: Four car
loads by the Howard Automobile COM
pany, San Francisco; three carloads by
the Howard Automobile company Los
Angeles; one carload each by the
Santa Rosa garage, Santa Rosa; George
w. Rodehaver, Petaluma; Carl Chris
tensen, Oakland w. w Wright, Con-
cord; f. B. Naylor. San Diego Orange
City garage, Orange, and Glenwood
garage, Riverside, a total of fourteen
carloads in one week. Deliveries were
also made by the Howard company
from San Francisco to Waterman
Brothers, Fresno, of two Buick white
Streaks," one Buick 40 touring car and
one Buick 40 roadster; to T. C. Lander
gan, Oakland, of a Buick 40 touring
car Claud Harlan Santa Cruz, Buick
40 roadster; S. A. White, San Fran
cisco, Buick 40 touring car; H. O. Cum
mings, Redding, Buick white Streak
with toy tonneau; William Van Zee,
Woodland, Buick 40 roadster, and Carl
Christensen, Oakland Buick white
Streak"
G.. L. Lampkin, agent for Buick au-
tomobiles in ontario, placed his order
yesterday for a carload of six toy
tonneau model tens, the natty little
blue car that has made such a hit
since its arrival two weeks ago. This
makes seven cars ordered by Mr..
Lampkin this week.
r. H. Collins, manager of the Kan
sas City branch of the Buick Motor
COMPANY is in town with his family
on "A short vacation. Mr.. Collins with
out exception does the largest Buick
business of anybody in the country.
Taking into consideration the fact that
Los Angeles handles 800 cars per year
and that is only drop in the bucket"
an idea of the enormous size of his
business may be had.

eLIDDEN CLAIMS HoNoRs

An interesting contention has arisen
as to what make of car is in use far
thest north. Charles j. Gldden of
Boston claims to have driven an auto
mobile nearer to the north pole than
any other person, having crossed the
Arctic circle in an English Napier car
about four years ago. The distinction
of having motor vehicles in constant
employment in the "farthest north
probably belongs to the Rapid Motor
company of Pontiac, Mich, and New
York city. News was received by the
New York agency for the Rapid recent
ly that ten Rapid delivery wagons and
trucks are in CONSTANT use in the town
of Helsingfors, Finland Two of these
are in the municipal service-one in the
police department and one in the fire
department; while the others are en-
ployed by merchants. These are said
to be the only motor vehicles of amy
description owned in Finland.

NEW MOTOR TRUCK

The Bekins Motor Car company,
which has just moved into the spacious
quarters formerly occupied by c. c.
Slaughter at 1926 South Olive street,
reports that it has accepted the agency
for a new line of four-wheel drive, four
wheel steer, gas-electric trucks.
In these the powerful gasoline engine
is used to drive q dynamo, which in
turn drives four big motors, one of
which is attached to each wheel. The
steering gear also affects all four
wheels and makes the truck able to
turn in an uncommonly narrow street
without backing.
This truck and the two cars which
the company already handles-the
valveIess two-cycle American Simplex
and the Atlas-nake the Bekins line a
very complete one. enabling them to
satisfy the man who wants a high or
moderate priced pleasure car or a tre-
powerful truck.
w. o. williams, the manager of the
company, has been able to bring the
American Simplex and the Atlas into
a great deal of prominence since he
became associated with the concern,
and reports a splendid outlook for the
coming season, both in pleasure and
commercial vehicles.

GOODRICH PRODUCTION HEAVY

Two hundred tires a day is now the
capacity Of the plant Of the b. F. Good
rich company at Akron. Figuring the
outside diameter Of each tire at 40
inches-nearly the actual measurement
of a 32x41s Inch time-these tires of one
days output would line up over a mile
and a quarter. Measuring the circum-
ference of a tire as unit, the figures
would be three times this amount, or
about ,tour miles of tires a day, and 100
miles a month. The production for one
year OF the Goodrich company would
extend in a straight line from the
statue of Liberty to the Mississippi
river.

Is favorite material for bathing
suits, salt water silk is much used and
a great many women like the warmer
flannel and serge, while for trimming
bands Of any contrasting material are
appropriate. Dotted foulard is being
used and is liked, braid is correct, and
braiding with soutache is employed
on many of the handsomer suits. The
boomers accompanying the costume
are close fitting over the hips, conse-
quently mean no bulk, yet they are
loose and comfortable at the knees.
The suit is made with the blouse
and skirt and the boomers. The
blouse is laid in tuck over each
shoulder and in the tucks at the back
edges and the skirt is laid in inverted
pleats at front, back and sides, and
these pleats meet over narrow panels.
The two are joined by belt and the
closing is made invisibly at tho back.
A pretty shaped collar finishes the
neck. The boomers are finished with
hens and elastics at the knees and
under faced at the upper edge.
The quantity of material required
for the medium size (sixteen yearsy
is seven and one-half years, twenty
seven, FOUR and three-quarter yards
forty-four or four and one-half yards
fifty-two inches wide, one and one
half yards twenty-seven inches wide

fon cloth and all materials that are
used for bonnets of the sort are APP
propriate. If liked the brim could be
of one material and the crown Of an
other.
The bonnet is made with crown and
brim and foundation brim. The brim
is laid in folds but the foundation is
smooth ana plain. The crown is gath
cred at the front edge and joined TO
the brim and is shirred at the neck
edge to form little frill while these
shirrings are held by means of a
stay.
The quantity of material required
is one and one-half yards twenty-sev-
en-, or one yard forty-four inches wide
with three yards of ribbon two inches
wide for rosettes, two and one-half
yards of ribbon six inches wide or one
and one-half yards of chiffon for ties.

Anto or Steamer Bonnet.

Travelling, whether by motor or by
steamer, brings about the necessity
for just such head covering as this.
A bonnet Of some sort is really es-
sential both as protection against the
wind and to keep the hair smooth
and tidy. The one illustrated is
charming and attractive and becom-
ing as well as practical, and easily
made withal. In the illustration silk
is the material and the trimming is
rosettes of ribbon, while the ties are
of soft ribbon, but chiffon is often
used for ties and the trimming could
be any preferred one. Pongee, chif-

Ornamental Pockets.

Pockets are proving an inexhausti-
Bile mine for displaying trimming of
various kinds. There are the large
square shapes that are ornamented
with braid, embroidery or buttons,
giving the decorative plastron so
much in vogue. Then, again, there
are the pointed shapes that are FREE
quently used when the lines OF a
coat are built on the sharp slanting
scheme. Stitched flaps are placed on
the tailored suits of severe cut; even
lace is used on the linen costumes for
ornament rather than for use, for it
must be remembered that the perfec-
tion of line must not be destroyed by
the contents.

Matching Accessories.

With the violet hued suit there
must be gold chain bag with tiny

of the purse. Or. If my lady prefer
to adopt the latest fad in dress, she
will have bag of violet silk with a
little gold chain for change fastened
to the outside. She can keep her
coin in the tiny little purse while her
vanities are carried in the big silk
wrist bag.
