We have had the opportunity of reading
the English Compositions of three boys in
the With Middle Glass of the Richmond Hojere
Skole. The Compositions were written for
the annual examination which was held a
few DAYS ago at the School, and the subject
given, without previous preparation, was
+'Education". It vas not an easy subject to
handle on the spur OF the moment, 1T de-
manded a certain amount of knowledg e OF
facts as we'll as some facility with the pen,
and we were agreeably struck by the way III
which the boys used the knowledge which
tley had obtained in the ordinary school
work, and the easy way in which they put
their facts into words. This result is very
creditabIe to the teachers, aud, as the subject
on which we are writing is English Compost
ton. a word of commendation is due the late
English teacher, Mr.. u. Huckstep, b. A., who
devoted himself untiringly to the duties
which he had left his home in England to
perform. Although we were not asked to
examine more than the English Compost
tons, yet, as in the books handed to us there
were the working of test questions IN Alge-
bra, Geometry and Arithmetic, we looked
these over too, and were surprised at the
high Mathematics which are taught at the
School. The problems were correctly and
neatly done, showing careful teaching and
ability on the part of the scholars.
We congratulate the Headmaster and his
staff on these good results of the examination.
We have obtained from the Headmaster,
Mr.. Walff- Hansen, tbe names Of the children
who obtained the first place in their respec-
tive Glasses. They are as follows:

High Grade Car Demand
Now Greater Than Ever

Regardless of the great quantities
of lower-priced cars that are being
marketed, there is tremendous
shortage in cars of the strictly highest
class Lee j. Eastman, manager of
the Packard Motor Car Company of
Philadelphia, says that the demand
for high class cars is not only un-
precedented, but there may not be
enough to so around. 1t was thought
several months ago that the increased
output of the Packard factory which
accompanied the introduction of the
twelve-cylinder Packard Twin Six"
would provide ample cars for all de-
mands. Now 1t seems that even this
addition to the production of high
quality automobiles is less than is re-
quired.
Mr.. Eastman thinks that, while the
present condition is partly due to a
healthy growth of the trade and a
natural tendency among buyers to
possess high-grade cars, it also has
been greatly effected by the introduce
ton of the twelve-cylinder car itself.
He says:
"It is quite apparent that the in
PRODUCTION of the Packard 'Twin-Six'
has met with the approval of the
highest class of buyers. Earlier in
the season our salesroom was clogged
with patrons clamoring for deliveries
and even now, when the factory has
practically caught up with its manu-
featuring schedule and cars are COM
ing through on time, we are still
faced with an undoubted shortage for
the season.
when the Packard company sized
up the situation and introduced the
twelve-cylinder car, there was a good
deal of excitement in the high-class
trade at the audacious move The
way the car has performed, the way
in which the trade has responded, the
introduction of other twelve-c cylinder
cars and the reports of others still to
be introduced, all show that we not
only were right, but had made a very
important advance.
1.-THE lack of Importance OF English
and French cars may have had a
slight effect on the sale of domestic
high-grade cars. but not to any ap-
preciable extent. The sale of foreign
cars within the past few years has
been very limited anyway. Conse-
quently, the present shortage of high
grade cars can only be attributed to
the above reasons, and 1 really think
that, among them all, the introduction
of the 'Twin-Six" is the most signif-
cent.
Now that the allotment Of closed

There are now over three thousand
official Hupp service stations which
are designated by a large Hupmobile
service sign. These signs are adequate
in showing the owner the stations in
his own community, but a man on a
tour would have no way of knowing
just where to find a regular Hupp sta
ton.
In order to increase the efficiency
OF this nationwide plan, the Hupp
Motor Car Corporation has decided to
issue this guide. 1t will also contain
valuable Information of every kind
which is needed by tourists such as
road regulations, care of the car,
tires and various accessories.

Hupmobile Service Guide
For Stations on Routes

Another big feature has been added
to the Hupmobile nationwide serv-
ice plan which has been the most
practical innovation that the automo-
bile manufacturers have inaugurated
during the present selling season. The
latest addition to the Hupmobile
service plan is the Touring Guide"
which is a handbook issued for the
benefit of all Hupmobile owners as
we'll as dealers, distributors and
service representatives
The Touring Guide" will contain
the names and locations of the thou
sands of Hupmobile service stations
throughout the United States and Can
ada, so that the owner of a Hupmo-
bile, when touring throughout the
country, will know just where he
may find an authorized garage OIL
dealer to look after his machine

perfectly clear, the battery box be-
ing concealed in a compartment be-
hind the dust shield alongside the
running board, on one side, and the
detached accessories such as wheel
jack, tire hose and gas tank filler on
the opposite side.
Another point is the manner in
which the side lamps are designed
and attached, which does away with
the exposed wiring. The latter not
only contributes to neatness in APP
pearance, but by thus cohcealing the
wires they are protected from the
weather, and the probability of dam
age from other sources is removed.

Cadillac An Example
of Neatness in Design

An example of the successful eff

Meeting Place for Coming Year

Valley City was selected by the fire.
men OF the state at their meeting at
Fargo Wednesday for the 1917 meet.
The decision came too late in the after.
noon for the Times-Record to announce
it that day.
Bismarck and Grafton were early con-
tenders for the honor but Grafton
dropped out and when the vote came
the Bismarck delegate started to vote
for his home town, but changed his
mind and made it unanimous.
The securing of this convention for
Valley City is due to the hustling abil-
ity of as good bunch of boosters as
any city ever sent out as representa-
tives T.. II. Swanson, ". T. Craswell,
w. F. DuVall, Fred Jensen, Chas. Cras.
we'll and John Neustaedter comprised
the crowd. Mayor Moe was also call
ed upon to lend his aid.
The annual meeting calls together
several hundred fremen from the pro-
gressive cities of the state for two
days each year and will be valuable
advertisement for Valley City. Off,
GERS of the association believe that al
most 1000 delegates will be present at
the meeting next year ana are already
planning for the best meet in the his.
tory of the association.
Casselton took first honors in the
big parade of Wednesday.
Theo. Kahellek, of Kenmare, heads
the organization for the coming year.
The returning delegates are very
much leased with the success of the
meeting Just closed. For the first
time in the history of the organization
free booze was cut out and the result
was so gratifying that the Valley City
meeting will be run on the same plan.
Fargo proved royal hostess, the
meeting opening Monday night with
banquet at the Auditorium, followed by
a memorial service for deceased mem.
bers. This was an innovation propos-
ed last year by w. T. Craswell. A
ball Wednesday evening closed the
session.
