Black Patti.

Mirth, melody and music is the
keynote of the performance to be CIV
en- by the famous Black Patti Musical
Comedy Company at the Gennett on
September 7.
Those sweet singers and ebony col
ored fun-makers of Dixie Land have
been recognized for many years as
high class standard attraction and one
that has scored phenomenal popular
lions of the country. Among the forty
dancers and comedians in the ranks Of
the Black Patti show are to be found
the most talented Afro-Americans In
the world. Sissieretta Jones, the Black
Patti, the vocal star of the organiza-
cd singer of her race, enjoys the dis
tinction of having sung before the lar
gest audiences that have ever assem-
bled in Madison Square Garden, New
York City, and the first colored singer
honored by Royal Command to sing be-
forwards King Edward VII, of Eng
land. In this country the Black Patti
show, through their refined and enjoy
able stage performances have added
largely to the musical culture Of the
people. Their revival of the sweet mel
odies Of the South, reminiscent Of an
te-bellum days, the plantation, the cot
ton fields and the levee has been
musical revelation to millions.

The MurraV,

The Murray.
The opening of the Murray today for
its usual vaudeville season is an ev-
ent of interest to the patrons of that
theater, and no doubt the large crowds
of the afternoon will be duplicated to-
night.
After a summer Of stock the variety
of vaudeville is welcome and the
bill which will hold the boards the
first of the week should suit the diff
ferent tastes Of all the frequenters of
the house.
The innovation introduced with the
re-opening of the house, namely, the
complete change of bill in the middle
of the week will no doubt prove a
success and everything points to a
prosperous and entertaining vaude-
vile season.

TRUCK RIDES OVER

Through bottomiess clay, alltsli mud

four foot descents and sharp rises. the
transcontinental Alec truck reported at
wamsutter wyorn. with a mileage record
Of 2,730 miles.
Word comes from the crew that weath or
and road conditions encountered by the
truck were the worst IN fourteen years
in the state Ten oloudbursts IN eight
days washed away q number of bridges
and the whole country between Medicine
Bow and Hanna was submerged under
two feet Of water. At one place a section
Of railroad track was washed out for a
mile.
Along the way to Wsmsutter the crew
was forced to drive across gIllies so
abrupt that the truck in crossing at times
dipped to an almost vertical position.

tests proved so successful that the de-
cision was reached to add the truck to
the regular production, and additions have
been made to the factory TO accommodate
the new model The factory officials are
greatly pleased with the prospects for the
new commercial car.
The Federal truck has reached its des-
tination after having started again on
one of her habitual cross country runs,
this time making Ludington from De
troit, a distance of 235 miles, carrying

FROM DETROIT, MICH,

FLANDERS ELECTRIC

| From Detroit Mich, TO Mammoth Cave.
KY. in seven running days is the exact
record of the Lakes to- the Gulf route
| pathfinder for the national tour of the
American Automobile association and, as
the trip was made in a Flanders Colonial
electric coupe. the long journey which is
hardly half OF the entire trip to New Or
leans. has attracted the attention Of the
entire automobile world In fact, this
long journey in an electric car eclipses
! every record for long distance road work
ever made by an electric. 1t is a per
Torrance that truly demonstrates the
fact that country touring in a luxurious
electric car is possible in these days when
practically every town of any consequence
is provided with a charging station at
which Juice" may be obtained during
dinner hour and night stops.

trace their route at times to discover bet

trip from Cave City to Mammoth Cave.
nine miles each way, the Flanders cleo
trio really averaged slightly above 100
miles for each travelling day, or six sue
cessive days. During this remarkable
Uya-
the car gave any trouble. Steep hills,
sandy stretches and rocky surfaced roads
caused by washouts during the heavy
rains Of this year, were encountered.
Throughout the entire stretch of country
covered, road work was being done and
when the great tour travels through,
there will be found excellent highways
for practically the entire distance.
Those roads which in 1910 gave the
Glidden tourists so much trouble have
been nightly improved and many
stretches are now splendid pixies con-
structed along lines of road building that
insure permanency
Throughout the entire country travelled
in the early one-half of the national tour
route the tourists have passed through
none but prosperous farming country with
corn so high that they stopped to meas
ure some on the farm of descendant of
Daniel Boone and found It above fifteen
feet in height They have found thresh-
ing of bumper crops all along the route
and after travelling south of Louisville
found tobacco fields and all other crops

Automobiles encountered along the
route were numbered in the thousands

its garage and accommodations for tour

BUSINESS ANALYSIS
NECESSARY TO SELL
POWER TRUCKSNOW

The real problem Of selling power wag-
ons 20 supersede horse haulage is not the
mere substitution of one type Of vehicle
traction In its fullest extent It means
the replacing Of an antquated system of
handling goods by modern machine"
methods, which, If carried out to their
logical and ultimate conclusion. involve
not only the carrying of merchandise on
the road, but also the manner of loading
and unloading 1t to and from the vehicles,
and the other processes that are related
to that end of the business. including a
scientific system Of checking and account
ancy in connection with the vehicles and
the goods they handle. In other words,
II means in its final analysis a complete
reorganization of the whole business. with
corresponding economies in every de-
partment pertaining TO the Transports
ton.
Fortunately, however, the power wagon
Is not dependent upon loading and I'M
loading specalties to make an economic
showing in comparison with the horse.
1t has proved Its efficiency In by far the
majority of cases simply as hauling and
carrying NenlCle, operated under the pres
ent unscientifo horse conditions SO that
Its future is all the brighter when one
considers that It is peculiarly adapted to
machine" administration methods and
will show vastly increased profits by their
use.
This consideration foreshadows the re-
placement at an early date of the ordi-
nary type of statesmen by the salesmen-
engineer who can critcse a transporta-
ticn and terminal problem and devise ape-
cial methods for obtaining the maximum
benefits out of a power wagon installa-
ton in any particular case. Especially
will this be the case In contracting work
coal delivery and the like, although there
are many internal problems to be solved
in connection with the ordinary drayage,
department store deliveries, and other
cases which may not appear so obvious
at first blush.

The board OF aldermen OF New Bedford,
Mass. probably deserves the distinction
OF. being the most painstaking municipal
officials in the entire country. Recently
II was decided upon TO purchase an au-
tomoble and to make sure Of their ven
ture and secure the best investment Of
the public money. hftty-nine different
makes Of cars were examined and con
sidered.
Some people seem TO be in doubt wheth-
er the electric current in passing from
one point to another on a spark plug
merely fills the gap or actually jumps it,
The truth Of the matter is that the cur
rent is momentarily stored through
means OF the coil, and when the circuit
is broken by means Of the commutator or
other form Of interrupter, the tendency
Of the current is 10 keep on flowing, so
it Jumps the gap. In order to complete
it's circuit as IT does. or tends to do it
IS necessary for 1t to jump from one
point to another
Many motorists DO not understand the
difference between magnetic and dy-
namo. In a magnetic the electricity Is
generated by the action OF the magnetic.
while in the dynamo the electricity IS
produced by the conversion OF a high de-
gree Of mechanical energy

20 MOTOR TRUCK FIRMS
FORMED DURING JULY

No less than 20 new companies to man
ufacture motor trucks were formed in
July. which is but one less than the num-
Der Of the new concerns that entered the
Gus month This activity in motor wagon
manufacture is further emphasized by the
fact that most of the makers already in
the field are increasing their factory IA
cilities and the number of machine types
and load ratings, in order to keep pace
with the demand for power driven trucks.
In spite Of the increased manufacturing
facilities, the better class power wagon
makers are still behind on their orders

DEMONSTRATION IN
STREET NOVEL PLAN
OF THE OAKLAND co.

The Oakland Auto Company has found
way to solve the question of explaining
TO the general public the why's and where
fores of the different parts Of their car
The company has put upon the street
a chassis, a stripped car, showing every
bolt, screw, piston rod IN fact, every
part of the machinery and its mission.
This demonstrator is constantly being
changed to different parts Of the prin-
oipsl streets and left standing near the
sidewalk with It's machinery in motion,
giving the lay public an opportunity to
see what makes the wheels go round
Much interest has been aroused by
the presence of the chassis and many
are the expressions Of satisfaction heard
on all sides at its performance.

THE AUTOMOBILE LUNCHEON

| HE Az lOMOBlE6 EONC n EON.
Most automobile Iuncheons are
rather disagreeable memories of
messy sandwiches, sticky cake
and a bit of fruit washed down with
tepid water. When a little thought is
given to the matter 1t can easily be
| changed from a roadside bore into a
veritable feast of Lucullus
First obtain a hamper large enough
| to hold the provisions. a small alcohol
stove knives. forks and spoons, a small
pail for ice, and whatever cooking
utensils are necessary. The stove, with
a wind shield, will cost $3.50, the cook
| ing utensils may be of aluminium with
| folding handles, and can be purchased
at any sporting goods store, while the
| plates and cups should be of paper
| The alcohol stove can be used to
heat water for any of the prepared
bouillons. to make coffee or tea. or to
cook chops, eggs, bacon or an occasional
rarebit The new fire regulations, which
are being adopted In many communi-
| ties. prohibit the building of camp fires
without permits, so stove is a neces-
sity when a hot dish is desired.
Instead of sandwiches a loaf of gra-
ham or nut bread can be sliced and
buttered as needed, or crusty baking
! powder biscuits or corn cake can be
| taken. q cream cheese or jar of jelly
being a welcome addition
A simple salad can be carried to per-
| lection in a paper cooking bag, al
! though if fish salads are carried they
should be buried In the ice pail
For q sweet there is nothing better
than little turnover pies or a loaf of
| layer cake, accompanied by berries or
fruit of some sort. These can also be
packed into the paper cooking bag
Lemonade is carried most easily in a
glass jar, the juice and sugar being
combined although for two or three
people a hot-cold bottle will carry
| enough already made.
The following menus give an idea Of
this type of luncheon. which is not
only more delicious, but more easily
packed and prepared than'the old time
sort:

Graham Bread and Butter
Jam Pressed Veal
Potato Salad.
Chocolate Fudge Cake Strawberries

CAN | AFFORD TO OWN AN
AUTOMOBILE?

AAO
how often have you asked yourself this question
You nave badly wanted good auto but you were
sk1ttlsh about the cost of upkeep etc.
Now let us give you few facts:
We believe these facts will convince YOU that the
average man can and should own an ACKNOWLEDGMENT
eraby an OAKLAND automobile
1t IS found that the average automobile is used
4'OOO miles year, which includes summer touring
weekend trips, the to and from the Office and a
spin in the evenings This shows an average of about
o33 miles each month. These facts are derived by
averaging the yearly mileage of all automobiles
Approximately Is gallons of gasoline monthly will
be used the cost of being 1915 and lubrcating
OIL Will cost about 81 go monthly Now as to the tire
cost This should be figured at about $12 monthly for
most tires will give you 5000 miles of service and
some as much as 5000 miles Allowing 81 per month
Tor puncture repairs, makes $13 monthly tire COST
Therefore, the tire cost and repairs and the cost of
gasoline and oil amounts to $18.35 monthly This
makes no allowance for storage in public garage but
Is inquired on the idea of your having your garage
Therefore, if you can spare $685. monthly. and
have car like the OAKLAND, with it's simplicity of
mechanism, which cuts the upkeep COST as there are
fewer parts to look after and fewer adjust and re-
pair in the OAKLAND, you afford an automobile
To own such economical and practical car as
the OAKLAND is worth all this to YOU monthly and
more. Consider the social benefits your owning car
brings the great difference it makes in man S mental
range and the wonderful enjoyment it gives YOU and
your family and your friends then you will agree that
the estimated upkeep cost of $1835 monthly is money
well expended.
How long will an OAKLAND last?
The average automobile is the most abused piece
of machinery in the world Yet look at the years and
wears that most automobiles run A well cared
give almost lifetime service. We claim that the
OAKLAND, with it's Unit Power Plant all enclosed
and protected from the dust and the weather, and
with its tested parts is strong that reasonable
will affect it. Properly cared for there is scarce
ly limit to the period of service which family may
enjoy from OAKLAND
The purchase price and the upkeep
cost of the OAKLAND car is With
in the reach of numerous families
tUho haze not heretofore realized
hoW small the expense is.
We offer you the OAKLAND "4O'', five passen-
ger touring at $145O This is an automobile which
in appearance and service is the equal of many cars
selling for twice this The power and the speed of
this model is all that you desire The "4O is a family
in class to itself Call at sales room and ex
anime it,
In the OAKLAND line we offer you various de-
signs and models prices from ST. 900 to S3OO0 and
your selection awaits you.
Think this over carefully-today Then write or
