SIX FORDS SOLD
 LAST SATURDAY

To receive a car load of Fords and to deliver six of them to purchasers on one day is a record. But such was the case last Saturday when the Co., chise Motor Company delivered Ford cars of all descriptions to various mo- torlsts in the district
 Joe Norcross, manager of the Royal thea.er, was one of the purchasers taking touring car for his portion of the shipment. Paul Stevens, pri- vate secretary of Mir. Greenway, took one of the roads,ers. Joe Sparks, To- cal representative of the Standard oil Company. also bought one of the road sters. The gigantic oil concern has machines scattered all over the coun' try and 5he Ford purchased by Sparks is to wear the number of 5057. Dr Leonard, of the dispensary staff of the c. & A. mining company was delivered one of the roadsters, as was also John Rawlings agent of the c. & A., and pr. Bryant of the Copper Queen med ical staff.

Want carnivaIs to Pay.

The supervisors may be asked at .heir next session to see if 1t is not possible to arrange some manner of extra license which will put larger burden on carnival and similar attrac- tions coming to the district from out side points. Such course is indicated as probable by Lowell business men who yesterday were interesting them selves in the matter. Under the pres ent provisions of law, outside atsrac- tions come in under a nominal license and stay as long as they please. The last one cleaned up all the spare change in the district. with conse' quence that there has been some dull ness complained of for a couple Of weeks. Pay days, the end of this week and the first of next week, will rectify this trouble. but business mer hold that if carnivals are in future ;C have access to the change of the dis
 trict they should be made to pay pro
 portlonately for ',he privilege.
