II. NJ. Leland of the Cadillac Motor
Car Company takes unique and PHI
losophical view of the phenomenal
performance OF the Cadillac at Los
Angeles, April 8, when that car made
the greatest mileage ever recorded by
an American automobile in twenty
four hour contest.
The Cadillac, by covering LAS
miles In the time specified. not only
beat the best previous American rec
ord by the miles; but averaged 80 10
miles per hour for "a hours: finished
only 43 miles behind the specially
built $1,000 Fiat; aud left its nearest
following competitor 229 miles in tn
rear.
I'VE would be less than human II
we did not experience a great deal OF
satisfaction In this achievement, "
says MIR. Leland. But ours Is rather
the calm satisfaction of the man who
sees the correctness of his deep-seat-
ed convictions demonstrated to 9TH

"The ordinary view Is that n car
which wins an endurance contest Is
the best car for everyday use. Our
conviction Is precisely the opposite.

"In short, the victory of the Cadil-

standardization which have always
inspired the Cadillac Company. II

won the Dewar tSphy; not because

full and roomy, of the iour-door
type, and seats seven. The bon
net is short, obviating the clumsy
appearance and waste room OF
numerous other sizes. The run
ming boards are clean on both
sides. Tires are carried at the
rear instead OF on the running
board, thus improving the APP
. pearance OF the car and weight
ing the rear springs equally.
Tires are large IN size and not
overloaded, thus do not wear ont be-
fore their time. Careful design and
construction of the diffDrputlul u,lr
eliminates any binding or cramplug
when the car is turning a corner a
condition that increases the life OF
the rear tires very considerably.
The Riding Qualities are remark

ENTERTAINER FOR BRrDE.ELEor
First Of Several Interesting Events in
Honor OF Miss Hughs.

On Thursday afternoon OF last
week, from s to 78o'cl. *, at "Bon-
homie" Miss Hattie Shelor vas
hostess at the first Of a series of
charming entertainments to be given
in honor of Miss Geraldine Hughs,
whose marriage to w. J. Rankin will
take place on the 9Th Of June.
AS each guest arrived she was ask
ed to register in the brides book, a
dainty handmade gift of the hostess.
After registering the guests were
seated on the broad and comfortable
veranda of the front, and soon the
merry chatter of female voices filled
the cool air Of the afternoon with
logical discussions on the wisdom of
matrimony, and the hope Of attaining
1t. However, this was soon inter-
rupted by the announcement that
Madame Locke miss Marguerite
Brennecke) was waiting in a dainty
bower of the drawing room to whis-
per into each eager ear the future
OF her life. A picture OF the COMING
Fate was given to each maid, and
then the fortune OF the bride-elect,
with a thrill of quaintness and mys-
terry that foretold many happy hours
for the fortunate subject. Madame
Locke foretold the early coming Of a
messenger, and scarcely had the
words passed her lips when an ex-
press messenger entered with q cargo
OF dainty packages for the guest of
honor. Upon examining them more
carefully, Miss Hughs found to her
delight that they were pieces Of beau
ttful and useful china.
Following this happy event was a
contest, IN which each guest was ask
ed to draw a picture of her future
husband, to tell his ideal traits Of
character, and to write him a perfect
love letter. The results for their full
ness and gift Of art were excellent.
Miss Mary Ansel being the most deft
Of hand In art and letter writing was
accorded a box Of beautiful station
cry.
The hostess wore a beautiful black
and white wolfe, while the fair hon
pree looked charming In wisteria
satin.
Miss Shelor, assisted by Mrs. G. P.
Walker, served a delightful salad
course with iced-tea.
AS the shadows heightened the
guests departed, leaving many good
wishes for the bride-elect, and carry
Ing with them the pleasant memory
of an afternoon spent with a charm
ing hostess.

and Is the best poison for rapid de-
struction Of the beetles. 1t can be
used either wet or dry. When Used
as a spray. it is made as follows:
Paris green ...... 49,. / pound.
Water 49,. 1925 gallons,
The lime must not be omitted as
this will prevent the burning of the
foliage.
How to Prepare.-Mix the Paris
green with a small quantity of water
to form a paste and pour it into a
barrel of water. Stake the lime to
the consistency Of whltewash and also
add 1t to the barrel Of water. Stir
with a paddle and the spray Is ready.
In the small family garden mix a
tablespoon full Of Paris green with a
little water to form a paste, then add
1t to a 2 " to 3 gallon pail full Of
water. Then Stake a lump OF stone
lime about the size Of a mans fist
and also add 1t to the pail Of water.
Stir and the spray Is complete. APP
ply with a spray pump or with a
whisk broom.
Paris green may be used dry. A
teaspoon full of Paris green Is thor
oughly mixed with one quart of dilu-
tent or airslaked lime, land plaster
or flour, and then busted on the
plants In the morning when the dew
Is on; 1t Is busted by means of a
muslin bag or a can with holes made
through the bottom.
The Melon OF Pickle Worm.--Both
are present every season and attract
attention by boring into the fruit of
melons and cantaloupes. The pickle
worm prefers the buds. bloom and
fruit Of summer squash; the melon
worm prefers the foliage. In the
melon or cantaloupe patch there
should be planted a few hills of sum-
mer squash. These squash plants
should be thoroughly sprayed with
arsenate Of lead, two pounds to fifty
gallons Of water. When the melons
or cantaloupes approach the size Of
a base ball they should be tightly
bagged with six pound bags Of a
fairly heavy grade Of paper. This
Will prevent worms that were not
killed on the summer squash to en-
ter the melons and cantaloupes.
Arsenate Of lead Is rapidly taking
the place Of Paris green for use on
tender foliage. 1t contains less than
one-half per cent soluble arsenic, and
or this reason can be used without
danger of burning the foliage. In
this State 1t Is recommended at the
rate OF two pounds to fifty gallons of
water on one ounce to three gallons.
