Hudson Holds Every Worth
While Record

There are no important worlds records which
refer to a stock car that the Hudson Super-Six
hasn't won. The best former records are too easy
for the Super-Six. The events are too easily won.
For instance, in the a4-hour record. 1879 miles, it
exceeded the best former record by SAG.
And the Super-Six made the best time In the
worlds greatest hill-climb up Pixies Peak. The
best time for 100 miles. The greatest distance
covered in one hour and the fastest time for a
stock chassis at the rate of IoaH miles an hour.

Don't be misled by antiquated testi- monials; q testimonial without date does not prove anything. A testi- monial given many, many years ago cannot possibly apply to the modern piano. A few years ago in the deVel- opment stage of the wonderful player piano, a much advertised player, in spite of it's many musical short com ings, was of course the best to be had But the world moves, the player piano has progressed faster even than the automobile has progressed. What was considered a high point of per lection a few months ago is now practically obsolete The necessity of buttons, pointers, emphasiZers levers and other complex and confusing at tachments to player pianos has been overcome. The modern human touch, fleXil le finger, the metal tube, five point motor, perfect music roll guid ing device, player piano is sweeping all before it. That's the kind of a Player Piano to buy.

rendered his resignation in order To
accept the paStoratc OF the PreSby--

His resignation brings deep regret 10
his many friends, both in and outside
the church.
His paStorstc of almost seven years
in Endfield has hcen most satisfactory
and it is withthe kindest feelings on
both sides that the dissolution comes.
Rev Mahr is preacher Of unusu-.
al ability and his sympathetic heart
made him an ideal pastor. When
Others prospered he rejoiced, when
sorrows or Affections came he was
there to render any assistance posi-
bic. 1t was not unusual for him to
watch all night beside sick bed and
with his own hands administer to the
suffering. His good wife is in sympa-.
thy with all his work and is an eih-
cient helper, especially is she gifted in
singing.

My dear Friends of Harrison:
OF course my name is unfamiliar to
YOU, as all the seventeen years of my
life have been spent in the West, The
names OF some of the people about
whom am going to write, however,
| am sure will sound familiar to many
of the Older inhabitants, in and about
Harrison.
A great campaign is being conduct
ed in Spokane, for the purpose of tell
ing people of other sections about
this great lnland Empire in which
every product of the temperate zone
may be raised. Many are writing to
their old home papers in the East, but
as am a pure product of the West,
fact Of which | am very proud, and
have no home paper to which to write,
| know of no other people whom |
should rather tell of its great possible
ties than those in my mother S native
state. | do not believe that the citi-
zenS of Harrison have such mistaken
idea, but rumorS have Hoated to us
from the East, Of people who still
think that the Indians run rampant,
killing and destroying as they used to,
and that cowboys still find their
amusement in shooting at the feet Of
paSserbyS along the streets. They
are almost curiosity to us now, be-
cause Of their scarcity. Such was not
the case though, when my grandfath-
er, Moses Addington, and my Inclc
Allen Wood brought their families
here, for then, the Indians went in
droveS.
In 1887 these two civil war veterans
who were never able to fully recover
from the ravageS of the terrible con-
Aict, started with their families to the
far west, fearful in heart, little realiz-
INC the great resources Of the country,
which were to be their salvation
They settled in the PolouSc country,
famous for the fertility Of its soil and
the abundance of its crops, Then
the country was new and tranSporta-
tion facilities few which is not the case
now, that conditions have so much
Improved, Finally, when good start
had been made, there came the hard
times OF '93, but in spite of these diff
culticS, they prospcrcd and made
good
Grandpa Addington has been de-
ceased Tor a number Of years Uncle
Allen is still active and well and as he
has retired from business, he spends
most Of his time travelling, which he
deserves to do after spending the best
Years of his life in the warandin gain
ing a start in a new and undeveloped
country, He has probably visited
some Of YOU on one Of his recent trips
to his old home.

Polouse land, covered BY waving,
golden grain in the summer, which is
harvested by combine harvester in
the FALL This machine, as YOU all
know, goes about the field drawn by
great many horses usually eighteen
or twenty and sometimes more. The
grain is headed, thrashed, and sacked
and then dropped off at intervals
about the field and later loaded on
wagons and sent to market By no
means do these farmers do the drudg-
cry and work of the farm themselves,
as was the case in the old home. but
they simply act as overSccrS and
spend much OF their time sightseeing
or going fishing in their automobiles.
The lands, except near the large
cities, are still in a pioneer state of
development and excellent land, well
watered, free from stumpS and rocks,
and returning large yields of every
kind of farm, orchard, and garden
produce may be~purchased for from
$50 to 500 per acre,
Another great opportunity to ac-
quire one hundred and sixty acres of
land will be when the ColviIle Indian
Reservation is thrown open for settle
ment this summer. 1t is situated in
Ferry county, Washington, and after
the cultivation of crops which will
grow abundantly in the rich soil,
they may be readiI y marketed.
All the crops of the temperate zone
are grown in the Inland Empire but it
is particularly famed for its cereal
crops, One-ninth of the total wheat
crop Of the United States is grown in
here and the crop in 1918 was So
OOO,OOO bushels and besides this there
is great abundance of every other
kind of farm product, wheat, barley,
and flour are exported to the Orient
and Inland Empire apples are known
in every market. These things may
all be eaSil y cent to good markets as
transportation facilities of all kinds
are by no means lacking.
