We knew that if we could place an
Everitt six" on the market at anything
near the usual price for four-cylinder cars
of good average quality, it would be the
most attractive car the world had ever
seen.
But, we decided, merely six would
not be sufficient. 1t must be constructed
throughout OF chrome-nickel steel; that
marvellous alloy which by all tests has
three times the strain resistance OF selected
open-hearth steel, and has an actual value
six times as great as common steel.
We had still another high mark to reach.
The Everitt must be equipped with self
starting device, positive in action easy to
operate Thoroughly trustworthy

In the second days events of the
South Dakota Gun Club, the features
of the days shooting was the keen COM
petition for the cup, which was given
by Z. j. Henning, of this city, to the
marksman breaking the greatest num-
Der of birds out of fifty shots. Nearly
fifty entries were in the match and the
greater part of the day was required to
finish the tournament. Out of the large
number of entries there were several
marks of 45 or over out of the possible
fifty, and it was not until the last
round had been finished that the result
was determined. f. w. Block, of
Webster, was finally declared the win
ner with splendid mark of AZ birds
out of possible fifty. In the last
round of the afternoon he was given a
scare by Hawk, who finished with AZ
out of the possible so.
To date the meet has been most
gratifying, not only in point of attend
ance, but also in the excellent work
that is being done at the traps. In this
respect the local gun club is more than
holding her own with the other clubs of
the state, which are represented. =

Since becoming mayor of this city
Frank Mohs has become very unpopular
with ore class of people and we can
appreciate their feelings and heartily
agree with them that they have reason
for being sore. Mr.. Mohs has given
instructions that when parties are
arrested for being drunk and disorderly
or are taken up as tramps or Migrants
and have no money with which to liquid
ate when penalized in the police court,
that they be compelled to act as street
cleaning force for the city of Webster.

already learning to go through Webster

remain by the train crew. The tax
