OPERATING COST
MOST IMPORTANT

tThe cost Of operating an automo-
bile is of more Importance to the owner
than the original investment. If the
original cost was the only investment
to be considered, there is hardly d per-
son but what would use and own an au-
tomobile, says Manager A. L. Taylor
Of the Salt Lake Auto company.
EeThe motor car is an expense. And
its use must bring In some return to
the average owner to warrant the ex-
penditure. Every automobile owner is
deeply interested in the economy of his
car. Very few there are who find any
great pleasure In paying for tires and
gasoline, and not to mention repair
bills. To at least 95 per cent Of the
owners these bills are Of tho deepest i'm
portance.
eff the motor car is used for purely
business reasons alone, the owner must
consider the economy Of his car, or In
other words, watch closely its cost Of
operation. He does this as he considers
other expenditures, under the title of
overhead expense And you will find
him watching closely and trying his
best to keep down the cost.
eff the car is used purely for pleas
ure, 1t Is an out-and-out expense, the
only return being the pleasure it gives
him and his family to motor, and must
be charged up against expenditures Of
the pleasure nature. At the same time,
the owner has to recognize the deprecia,
ton Of the value Of machine, togeth-
or with the incidentals, such as stor-
age, washing, and so forth. Yet, prac-
ticaIly, no one wants TO give up auto.
mobi1ing; as a matter Of fact, the util-
ity Is too important and the pleasure
too great to surrender
fThsrefore, the question Of economy
takes its place as the one big question
In which all motorists are vitality inter
ested and which is always. seriously con-
sidered when purchasing. -

SKULL FRACTURED,
AUTOPSY REVEALS
Henry Crowell Died at Hyde Park Other
Than from Natural Causes, 1t
Has Developed.

Hyde Park, Jan. 6.-An autopsy per-
formed on thc~ body Of Henry Crowell,
whose body was found Friday after it
had lain for two weeks in barn on an
abandoned farm showed that the skull
had been fractured supposedly by a
shovel, The fracture extended from the
top Of the right ear across the back of
the head for five and half inches.
Traces Of paris green were found about
the mouth and nostrils. and it is thought
that the poison was placed there to sug
gest that the man met death by his own
act.
David Trudo, at whose home Crowell
lived. has been lodged in Jail to await
the outcome Of the investigation being
conducted by the states attorney. Cro-
well left the home of Trudo about three
weeks ago and had not been seen since
An investigation Of the premises where
the body was found is said to have re-
vealed evidences that the body was
placed there after death Crowell was
65 years old and unmarried.

FIRE DESTROYED
SCHOOLHOUSE
Waits River Grange Hall Was Located
in Upper Part of Structure and
Nothing Was Saved.

Waits River, Jan. 6.-~The schoolhouse,
with grange hall upstairs, was burned to
the ground last evening, the fire break
ing out at about 6;l5 o'clock. The fire
had made big headway when discoy-
cred, and it was impossible to check the
flames. Nothing in the building was
saved, either downstairs or upstairs. the
school supplies and the grange furniture
being burned.
The fire started in the woodshed and
the cause of it is a mystery. The school
teacher was at the building as late as
4:30 and she says that there was no
sign of fire in the woodshed at that
time, Also there was no fire in the
stove in the school. A little less than
two hours later the whole building was
nearly enveloped in flames. The loss is
particularly severe as it wiped out the
only school IN the place. The loss is
estimated from $1,000 to $4,000, and it
is understood there is a small insurance
on the property.

TO LEAVE PASToRATE.
Rev. G. F. Fortier Needs His Whole
Time for Superintendent's Work.

Rutland. Jan. 6.-Rev. G. F. Fortier
of No. q Kendall avenue, who for
about three years has served as pastor
of st. Pauls Uniyersalist church, and
also as superintendent of the Univer-
salist churches OF Vermont and the
Province of Quebec, announced to his
congregation last Sunday in anticipation
of the annual meeting last night, that it
would probably be necessary for him to
retire from the pastorate of the local
church during the present year in order
TO devote his entire time to the work of
the superintendency.
The members of the Uniyersalist par
ish have understood for some time that
such a step was being considered and the
announcement was not surprise as Mr..
Fortier's statement was merely for the
purpose of informing his parish of his
future plans rather than formal resig
nation
1t is not probable that formal action
will be taken by the parish at present.
1t is understood Rev. Mr. Fortier
wishes to relinquish his pastorate here
on June l at the latest.
