CHALMERS
WORKERS
FORM CLUBS

Addressing the entire ONCE force
and factory department heads Of the
Chalmers Motor company recently.
Hugh Chalmers advocated the found
ing Of two clubs for the young men
and women employees OF the COM
pany.
The clubs, to be known as the
Young Mems Chalmers club and the
Young Women's Chalmers club, will
combine fraternal and educational
features and will further serve to
develop a friendly cooperation be-
tween the various departments.
President Chalmers suggestions
for the twin clubs came as the eli
max OF an informal talk at the open
ing Of the new auditorium in the big
Jefferson-ave. plant.
Prepare for the Job ahead of you,
because II Is our idea TO make pro-
motions wherever possible from our
own ranks" said Mr.. Chalmers.
And by all means, think. II Is far
more necessary TO run this plant by
brsin-power than by horsepower
Anyone can purchase electric current
from the Edison company, but IL a
central market for brains exists, we
have yet to And 1t.
Our trouble, nowadays. Is not in
securing skilled labor. but in getting
the men TO fill the $4,000 $1,000 and
$4,000 jobs"

living in any department OF our

Il
Meantime things had happened.
Outside the fort there was camped
gang OF about so insurrectos
Many were wounded; all seemed TO
be In tatters.
They had with them three Ameri-
canos. One was Joe Welcher. who
sat sullenly upon the ground smok-
ing a cigarette. Inez Castro was
also In evidence. The third Ameri-
cano was Neal Hardin's mother.
She was the subject OF considerable
die cussion. for she was Ill.
"Get ME two donkeys." said Her
nsndez. y will serd her back down
the trail with Senorita Castro and
Welcher"
A quarter OF a mile away on the
! top OF a Jagged rock that thrust It's
head above the surrounding foliage
there crouched a native scout. He
watched a cruiser slowly steaming
I'D the coast. He watched the shore
and the trails leading from the
shore.
Suddenly he siarted-he had seen
something ominous. He clung 10
his perch for one instant peering
down to make quite certain. Then
he scrambled TO the ground and
then crawled. leaped. staggered
through the brush. He reached the
insurrectos' camp and clutched his
leaders arm.
"Americanos, captain" he painted
breathlessly. They come"
"Frvm whence" queried the lead
er.
The insurrecto scout indicated the
direction. Fear srread itself over
the countenance Of the leader.
Hernandez grunted. I'VE must

shall 60 thither-east. He nodded
to the leader. 1--WE go west az once
and with cur prisoners"
It takes the trained eye Of a ma
tive to know trail when he meets
one In the wtllnigh impossible jun
giles of Dolores. Tie United States
marines, a little squad OF 20 men,
were beginning to realize this fact
For an hour they followed blind
trail after blind trail, only to re-
trace their steps to given starting
point.
Never mind" said their officer.
They're up there and well get
them, and then"
He stopped. A shower OF dirt and
small stones spattered on his head.
The oficer looked up. Above him
lowered a cliff. and halfway TO the
top OF this cliff there ran a narrow
ledge-a mountain pass. The oficer
ducked, for there was another show
er Of dirt and gravel Then he
caught sight of a donkey's tail
swishing over the precipice.
i've got the trail,' he said, land
a good trail 1t Is, for It leads here
here to our very feet"
He was quite right. Some three
quarters of an hour later Inez and
her small party passed that very
spot--a spot now deserted.
Suddenly % American marines
with drawn bayonets sprang from
the jungle as by magic and sur.
rounded them.
| Inez, excellent actress, breathed
an audible sigh of relief AT last,
she said. I'VE have found you"
The ensign advanced toward her
and saluted. He glanced doubtfully
at the half-dozen insurrectos wear
ing uniforms.
