RESOLUTIONS
Adopted BY Juneau Lodge No. t2O,
Il. z. O. Elks, at Meeting Held
October 1st, 1913.

Whereas, That silent and mysteri-
Gus visitor, Death" has taken away
from us our beloved brother, Walter
5. Coutant, while in the vigor Of life
and usefulness;
And, whereas, while we bow our
heads in submission TO an All Wise
Providence and Supreme Being, in
Whose existence we as Elks, firmly
believe, yet it is hard to reconcile
ourselves to the loss of one OF our
members so young in years and for
whom the future held such great
promises
And, whereas, from our intimate ac-
uuaintance with our departed broth
er. who has been so long a member
OF our lodge and who resided in our
community for so many years, we
know of his devotion to his wife and
child. and our sincere heartfelt SYM
pathy turns 10 them in this their
time OF trouble and sorrow, and our
eyes moisten with tears when We
think that death had to deprive them
of loving husband and father;
And. whereas, the members OF
juneau Lodge No. 42O of the Ben
evolent and Protective order Of Elks
OF the United States OF America, in
regular session assembled, have un-
animously expressed their desire OF
conveying to the wife OF our de-
ceased brother their sympathy and

Carried Food and Supplies to Fire
Fighting Soldiers Ridge of
Marin County Hills

When a call for help went out from
the little towns across the bay, which
narrowly escaped destruction by the
great forest fire which ragged through
out the Muir Woods district, the Young
& Swain Baking company of San Fran
cisco offered immediate and valuable
assistance by loading their Federal
truck to its fullest capacity with bread
and sent it post haste to Corte MADEIRA
and Larkspur, where the welcome food
stuff was meted out to the hungry fire
fighters and soldiers. Through the
courtesy of the Northwestern Pacific
the truck was allowed right of way
and free passage on the boats both
going and coming.
After the bread had been distributed

done $4,000 miles of service. pitched

REMEDY FOR BALKY MOTOR

If motor which has been overhauled
and fitted with new pistons is found to
be getting insufficient cylinder lubrica-
tion owing TO the pistons being too
close a fit in the cylinders to carry the
requisite oil, the difficulty may be over
come by putting oil in the gasoline
tank along with the fuel The correct
proportion is one pint to each five gall
Ions of gasoline This method should
not be used as the sole means of lubri-
eating the cylinders, however. but only
as an auxiliary supply. The bearings of
a four cycle motor will not be lubri-
Gated by oil mixed with the gasoline.

DETAILS Of NEW
CADILLAC AWAITED
Motor World on Qui Vive
as 1914 Surprise Is
Announced

The automobile world always sus
ceptible to changes and innovations.
has been put on tenter hooks by the
preliminary announcement Of the Cad
lilac Motor Car company referring to
certain progressive developments which
will distinguish the 1914 Cadillac, the
exact nature of which will soon be re-
vealed.
Those active in the industry-and
laymen as welfare always keenly
curious about contemplated motor car
improvements and what they portend.
but this interest is whetted to its keen
est edge when the Cadillac announces
a new series because of the position
the company occupies in the history
and development of the motor car. The
reason is obvious: conservatism has
been coupled with foresightedness.
Henry NJ Leland, advisory manager of
the Cadillac, the founder and guiding
spirit of the concern, is an extremely
conservative man with half a century
of experience in the mechanical world.
vet he has been called the youngest"
man in the automobile industry today.
In the affairs of the Cadillac, there has
been wholesome fear of the whims
of the fadist and the merely tempor-
ary in innovations. But the company.
nevertheless, has from time to time
PLAYED the role of pioneer and has in
augura ted several important epochs in
the development of the motor car. One
of these epochs illustrates in an es
pecially significant manner the reason
for the publics attitude toward this
company 1t was two years ago that
the Cadillac had the honor of being
first to introduce an automatic cleo
trical cranking and lighting system. 1t
was a revolution in efficiency and COM
fort AS there have been many other
progressive features first developed in
this car, the query is now naturally
voiced each year:
What will the Cadillac do?"
The Cadillac company's conservatism
has not permitted it to make rash
promises Therefore, when it declares
that it is about to inaugurate another
new and progressive development, the
automobile world, remembering past
performances, is on the qui vive to
know just what these statements por-
tend.

WINT0N MACHINE
ENDS LONG TRIP
w. N. Robinson and Family
Arrive From Tulsa, Okla,
After Month on Road
Tourist Describes Trip and
Says Fasteners Will Mo-
tor Across Country

Comfortably seated in Winton Six
touring car, but slightly covered with
dust after trip across the continent.
w. N. Robinson and family motored
into this city the other day from their
home in Tulsa, Okla
I'VE left home on June 15," said Mr..
Robinson. ''The first stage of the tour,
via Kansas City and over the old Santa
Fe trail to La Junta, Colo. was un-
eventful From La Junta we went to
Colorado Springs. from which point we
took the Lincoln highway up the Ute
pass through Buena Vista and Lead
vile, thence over the mountains en-
countering some 25 per cent grades.
We soon experienced the first real
thrills of the tour at Red Cliff climbing
up the sides of Battle mountain, where
on the narrow mountain road at $500
feet above the river we could look
straight down into the Eagle river. The
turns were so sharp that it was neces-
sary to go ahead and back a number Of
times to get around them. We could al
ways stop within a fraction of an inch,
and go ahead or back, with plenty Of
power either way.
Our road led us down into Grand
canyon, where the road is dug out Of
the side of the canyon, going along
from 10 to 1000 feet above the river.
The slightest mismove on the part of
the driver would mean the dashing of
the car and its occupants to the bot
tom.
Z "At Mack we entered the Great Amer
ican desert Our trusty Winton pulled
us right through and we made the 81
miles to Cisco without trouble. Not a
soul can be seen on this trip to ask
about the road, and it's just go, go and
go till you get through the desert.
From here we went on to Price over
some desert and then struck the place
where the new Midland trail through
Price canyon is being completed.
'Mr. Morgan, the chief engineer of
in Utah, met us at the state line and
escorted US part way to Provo.
I'VE feel that with the opening of
this highway and with the amount of
work completed, which is now in the
process of completion, that it will open
q way for motor travel from the east
to the Pacific coast that has hitherto
been a 'bugbear' in the minds of those
who desired to make this tour. When
this route is opened and the eastern
people realize that the tour can readily
be accomplished, they will come by the
hundreds. And, no doubt, many will
avail themselves of this route to come
to the Panama Pacific exposition.
THE roads from Salt Lake through
Nevada on the whole were far better
than we had expected. Coming through
Death Valley the thermometer regis
tered 120 degrees in the shade; how
tever, we suffered only two or three
blowouts.

NEW THRILLER
FOR DAREDEVILS
Sport Introduced in East Puts
Motorcycle on Par With Ski-
ing for Sensational Stunts

Another fad has jumped 1tsen INTO
prominence in the motor world. Like
all other sports it is dangerous 10
those who participate and hair RAISING
to those who are spectators Sense
tional Motorcycle. Leaping' is it's name
and it is being tried out on eastern
fields.
Automobile polo is all right but IL
hasn't anything on this for "daredevlf
work. 1t was originated by Mr. oak
ley Weibel of the Goodyear Tire COM
pany and exploited by him just out
side of Akron, O.
The sport is accomplished best on
a road with a fairly steep grade
broken by short rises known as water
breaks. A moderately fast speed is
necessary, the faster the speed the
farther the leap.
Recent trials have resulted in leaps
from 20 to "a feet and at a maximum
height of IS inches. One trial for
height resulted in leap of Is feet at
a height of "a inches.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Inheritance Tax for Alabama

To the Editor of The Age Herald
For your information and the in-
formation of Mr.. M. c. Burke of the
university, 1 would like to quote Sec
tion 219 of the constitution of Alabama
on inheritance tax for Alabama
Code 1907, Vol. 3, page 16S.
Section 219. The Legislature may
levy tax or not more than PA per
cent of the value of all estates, real
and personal. money, public and pri-
vate securities of every kind in this
state, passing from any person who
may die seized and possessed thereof,
or of any part of such estate, money
or securities or interest therein, trans
ferred by the intestate laws of this
state. or by will, deed, grant, bargain,
sale or gift, made OF intended to take
effect in possession after death of the
grantor, devisor or donor. to any per-
son or persons, bodies polite or cor
porate in trust or otherwise, other than
TO or for the use of the father, mother,
husband, wife. brothers. sisters. chill
dren or linea1 descendants of the
grantor, devisor donor or intestate.s'
There would be very little left after
this it seems to me and IL there was
it would escheat t6 the state under
section S91S of the code 1907, Vol. 2,
page 610.
Do not think for one moment that
the Alabama legislature of 1911 need
have overlooked this subject
