MAXWELLSIN MEXICO
Automobiles Lead the Way
in Carrying Troops on
Punitive Expedition

Maxwell motor cars have a.
chieved the signal distinction OF
attaining the most southerly
point IN Mexico of any automo.
bile engaged in the punitive ex-
pedition in that country. Let.
ters from the United States Ar
my officers have been received
by the Bug uor Motor Company.
Maxwell distributors in Ell Paso,
Texas, testifying to the fact that
the sturdy Maxwells have push.
ed farther south over the tortu.
GUS Mexican trails than any 9th
er make of car. These letters
contain words of praise for the
splendid service given by the
Maxwells under most discourag-
ing conditions.
One Of the American officers,
who drove a Maxwell car in the
army's movement to the south,
writes as follows from San An.
tonic, chihuahua; THE car is
standing up well. 1t has been
given tests to which no other car
with the expedition has been
subjected. We have used the car
on patrol duty and the roads
save the word are unworthy of
the name. Every member of the
staff who has used this car is a
Maxwell booster, for the car has
done everything we have called
for"
In addition to the service per.
formed by cars actually in the
zone, the famous non
stod Maxwell, the car that ram
p. 900 miles without single stops
Of the motor. has proven an eff
cient auxiliary to Uncle Sans
force. The car was used
recently by United States offic-
ers at Douglas, Arizona, which is
the western center of military
activities along the international
boundary. The efforts of the
nonstop Maxwell have been sup
plemented by feet of Maxwells
none of which have seen less
than 10000 miles ofArizona:stage
service. When new camp was
established ont of Douglas, the
Maxwells transported the SOL
diero over the rough roads, nine
troops to car.
These military performances
by Maxwell cars prove what an
effective unit for defense can de
by the motor car facili-
ties of the United States. They
prove also the claims in the SER
vice of private owners. The Max
we'll is an ideal car for service in
Mexico because of its ability to
ride the treacherous mountain
trails and the long stretches of
desert country.

Obituary

virginia Rucker Rush was
born in Tennessee, Aug. "a. 1858,
moving to Missouri about &c
years ago with her husband, 10.
seph Rush, who preceded her in
death. To this union we're born
II children, four boys and eight
girls. Of these six are living,
only three being present at the
time of her death, which occur
red Tuesday as result of a par
alytic stroke. She was convert
ed six years ago and joined the
General Baptist church at Prai.
rie Hollow, being baptized by
Rev. Mccall. She lived a true
Christian life until death. Thus
ends a useful life. She was 62
years, 9 months and 10 days of
age. Rev. JIM. England conduct.
ed the funeral at the Baptist
church yesterday; interment in
the Mansfield cemetery.-C
Charles Ray Morgan, son of s.
P. and Berta Morgan, was born
May ~, 1911, at Alma, and de-
parted this life June 10, 1916, at
Mansfield, aged 5 years and IA
days. His parents formerly re-
sided at Mansfield, but during
his last illness lived at the home
of Mrs. Morgan's parents, J. M.
Pierson and wife. His death was
due to dropsy. He leaves a ia.
ther, mother, brother and four
sisters to mourn his death, but
let US be thankful that our loss is
his eternal gain. as he has gone
to be with Jesus while eternal
ages roll. Prayer services were
conducted at the home, also at
the Crane cemetery, where be
was laid to rest. The verse of
Scripture used as a text was:
Suffer little children to come
unto Me, and forbid them not,
for of such is the Kingdom of
Heaven. This and a short talk
were given by Mrs. Venie Wilson.
One main thought was that we
should all be ready to meet this
sad hour; be prepared, as was
little Charlie, to meet the Lord in
peace. May God comfort the
sorrowing hearts of the bereaved
and help them to look above to
Him who "doeth all things we'll. ."|
May they be sure of their peace,
and make their calling and elec.
tion sure for another home, not
made with hands. The parents
extend a word of thanks for all
kindnesses shown by neighbors
