Wants to Be Publicity Manager

We learn that Parson Jim is
now trying to get a job as pub
licity manager for the Glendive
Commercial Club. jim says
that it wont help him any but
that Glendive needs a good man
to oversee her distinies. It is
beginning to look as if Glendive
after getting her newspapers
purified by the Parson' sale,
was not going to lose the gentle
men at that. But then, Jim has
his good qualities after all, and
all it takes for a publicity man
ager is an unlimited quantity of
''hot air" and Jim certainly has
these qualities to perfection.
Good luck to the Parson and the
Glendive Commercial Club.

Mighty Influence
Of Civilization

Can you imagine what existence
would be like if All advertising
were eliminated?
1t would mean more than the ab-
sence of advertising in the pages
Of periodicals and newspapers. 1t
would mean that the grocer would
not have his name or his business
printed over his door or on his
window. The drug stores would
not display the globes Of coIorei
water. The minister would not
announce the topic of his next
sermon nor the midweek meetings
from the pulpit. There wouldn't
even be sign posts at country
crossroads nor on the street corners
in towns and cities, says the Wo-
mans Home Companion.
If you should visit strange
community where there was no ad-
vertisine whatever you would re-
alize how absolutely dependent
you are upon advertising. If you
wanted to 90 to a store, particularly
the best store, no one could direct
you, for that is advertising-word
of mouth advertising. which is
sometimes as important and as
valuable as any other. Frankly.
you would find it practically i'm
possible to live without advertising
although you might manage to
exist after fashion.
A mere child could tanglt US up
in about minute if his Unsuitable
curiosity were directed to adver-
Using. 10 his first question We
could promptly and truthfully re-
ply that a man sdvertises to make
money But for the next logical
inquiry, "How Dies he make
money by advertising?'' the an,
swer isn't 50 easy. Possibly the
childish mind might be satisfied
with the explanation that adver-
tising increases the volume OF
business, which is true, OF course,
but is neither comprehensive nor
final.
y on may follow it through ever
SO many ramitications, and in the
end you will find that advertising
pays, for the simple reason that it
renders service to you and me
and to the man and woman next
door.
The great agents of civilization
are those which save time and in.
crease the comfort and convenience
of the people. These are the things
that make the railroad and the
many applications for electricity
the telegraph, the telephone,
light, power--so enormously val
liable. Advertising belongs to the
! same category.

INTERESTING WHEEL TEST.
Wire Shows Up Better Than Wood.
en- Spokes in Demonstration.

An interesting test of wire and wooden
wheels was conducted in an English fac
tory
There was procured for the test one
set of American hickory wooden wheels.
one set of French wooden wheels and
one set of wire wheels.
The wheels to be tested We're held on
a rigid steel bar bolted to a cement bed
and pendulum, the bob of which
weighed 4SO pounds, was pulled back a
series of varying distances and allowed
to swing and strike the wheel in the
same direction as the wheel strikes the
curb. Owing to the difference in the
weight o. the various wheels a direct
comparison is impossible but a fair one
can be made by multiplying the weight
of the wheel by the amount of deprecia-
tion since it is obvious that the minimum
depreciation and the minimum weight are
equally desirable.
The pendulum swing varied from five
feet IN the first blow to seven feet in
the fifth.
One spoke Of the American hickory
wheel cracked on the first pendulum
stroke, two on the second, three on the
third four on the fourth and six on the
fifth.
No evil results followed the first pen
dulum stroke on the triple spoke wire
wheel, after the second there was a
slight trace of the hub shell bending,
after the fourth blow few spokes loos-
ened and after the fifth blow five spokes
were loose, and the hub shell bend
slightly increased.
The respective weights Of the three
types of wheels were: Triple-spoke wire
wheel 80 pounds; French oak, 1915
pounds; American hickory. Al pounds.

greatest cheese-eaters in the world. This
country also heads the list for diversity
of cheeses. seventeen different varieties

and then Italy, Holland, Norway and
Sweden. British cheeses are all made
from cows milk, and without any ad-
mixture save in the case of loaf ched-

sage leaves Foreign cheesemakers show
less exolusiveness. Roquefort is made
from sleeps milk and Gruyere from

AMERICAN AUTO
IS BIG SURPRISE
Little Overland Finishes Sew
enth in Most Difficult Road
Event in Europe.

Europe was given a thorough dem
| onstration Of the superior quality of
American-made automobiles last week.
when an Overland model 69T finished
seventh in the third annual Targa
Florio race. the classic endurance tour
of the Island of Sicily. 1t was the
only one Of the five American cars TO
complete the run, and one of the eleven
entries which lasted throughout the
grilling race. finishing the $50 miles Of
difficult travel in % hours. II minutes
and A. seconds. a little better than 3
hours behind the high powered Nazzarro
which took first place and IA minutes
and 32 seconds ahead of the time set by
the winner of the event in 1912
The performance of the Overland which
in comparison with its big, high priced
German: italian and French competitors,
looked like a toy racer, was especially
noteworthy. according to European rae
ing authorities.
Course Is Difficult
The Sicilian race is regarded as one of
the most trying in Europe. In the whole

there is not a. straight stretch of more
than a quarter of a mile in length, the
greater portion of the route being on a
ledge cut in the mountain side Nearly

quent and dangerous. In addition to the
other difficulties encountered there was
no attempt made to guard the course and
the drivers were forced to take their
chances in meeting mountain peasants,
who refused to turn their mules and yield
a fair share Of the road
The thirty-seven cars entered in the
race left the town Of Palermo at ) a. m.
of the first days run, which was to Cir
GENT, AT miles distant. The strenuous
ness of this leg of the trip Is shown by
the fact that but sixteen of the cars en-
tered reached the Girgenti control the
others having been eliminated In the
grueling pace set. The 6rst car left
Girgenti on the second days run at mid
night, with the others following at ten
minute intervals. SO night driving was
added to the other difficult features of
the event.

ing the second day was sensational, Sc
