TOURING ECONOMICAL
PASTIME FOR OWNERS
OF CHALMERS CARS

Cross country touring in well
built motor car is cheaper than pay
ing rent, according to Clarence E.
Baker veteran motorst of New York
City, who is just rounding out a solid
year of life on the open road.
Last December Mr.. Baker purchased
n Chalmers six thirty in New York, and
accompanied by his wife and child,
started for Arizona, New Mexico and
the southwest. Travelling leisurely, the
party toured through 20 states, cross
ing and re- crossing mountain ranges of
the west. The summer was spent in
Colorado. with side trips into Idaho,
Wyoming. Utah and Nevada. When
the car rolled into the Chalmers fac
tory grounds at Detroit recently. the
speedometer read in excess of 1900
miles.
MY actual expenses, not including
gasoline and oil. stood me $3.50 for
the seasons work. said Mr.. Baker.
1.-TWO thirds of my summer mileage
was made over the steep grades of
the Rocky mountains. AS n mountain
climber l can heartily recommend the
Chalmers six-thirty. On one occasion
we carried nine men up a 20 per cent
grade with no visible labor on the part
Of the high speed motor.
1.-THE cars extreme flexibility was
the source of considerable comment
among my western friends. On our
return trip east the carburetor worked
perfectly without a single adjustment,
although we passed through many
changes of climate and altitude. / con-
slider my seasons average of II miles

record for economy | have ever OBJ

ON their long tour, the Baker family
carried a complete camping outfit and
patronized but few hotels.

wheel, away from the curb. Two are
better. both on the rear wheels. but it
is best to use four and have one In re-
serve.
When coasting down a long hill
change from one brake to the other
to allow them to cool. Unfortunately
this does not cool the brake drums.
So use the motor as a brake and go
down very steep hills against COM
preston. Leave the gears In high
speed, or. II you find that too fast, the
second or first speed. Stop the isni-
ton and It will cool your motor At the
Same Tina.

The model is made in pussy willow

coin spots with narrow velvet ribbon
in blue forming shoulder straps fin
ished at the waistIine with knotted
streamers. The waist is draped
fichu-fashion, the "fchu" tieing in

thing about the frock, I think, is the

for which were laid at the con.
ference of the executive com.
mittee of the club at Omemee
Saturday, promises to be one
of the largest agricultural ex-
petitions ever undertaken by
any similar organization.
The plan as arranged con-
templates a two-day hike to the
place of encampm ent near the
central part of the county, stop
ping at points of agricultural
interest on the way where short
talks on the methods employed
in the production of the various
crops observed will be given by
the farmer whose place is visit
ed. Good live stock, silos, alf-
alta fields, corn fields, we'll ar
ranged farm buildings and the
like will be observed and the
methods explained to the boys.
Two days will be devoted tn
the hike out. Arriving at the
place of meeting a two-day
chautauqua will be held when
some of the best speakers on
agricultural subjects and live
stock will be on hand to give
talks and demonstrations on
crops and live stock.
Sports will be arranged for
SO that the boys will be given
a real outing as we'll as instruc-
ton relating to up-to-date me-
thods of farming. The return
will be made by a different
route and other farms will be
visited.
The club has so large an en-
rollment that it will be neces-
sary to proceed to the place of
encampment in divisions and
squads. For the east end of
the county a squad will start
from Souris, one at Bottineau
and one at Omemee. Each
squad, the North squad, Cen
trail squad and the South squad,
will be accompanied by a cook
car from which to feed the boys
while on the hike and encamp-
ment. A large tent has been
secured for use at the chautau-
qua grounds. The first night
out will be spent at the A. H.
White stock farm by the boys
from the eastern end of the
county and where the boys will
mobilize. Like plans will be
made and a meeting place ar
ranged for the boys from the
western part Of the county.
Any boy over IL years is

enrolment the $500 mainten.
ance fee and rs cents club dues.
This will be the only expense
the boys will be put to during
the weeks outing and will
constitute a fund for the pro-
visions for the boys.
The various commercial or
farmers clubs will be asked to
contribute for a general guar
antee fund for the expenses in

and teams.
All money will be held in
trust by the local bankers of
the county as a guarantee fund
to provide for the expenses of
the expedition and will be paid
out by them as accounts are
rendered by the management
of the enterprise. This is a
large undertaking and can be
made a success only by the CO.
operation of all the farmers and
business men and of all the
boys and the community at
large.
Let us give the boys of the
farms a vacation, they are en-

ton from all the people that
was given the short course is
asked to make a success of this

ton and Juincy.
 It was brought out that the railroads of the United States now own approxi- mately 2.6OO,OO0 cars and that the ap- parent total shortage on all lines Is only about 6O000. MT. Barnes gave it as his opinion that much of the short age resulted from shippers asking for more cars than they needed in order that their allotment might approxi- mate the number they really want. Any apparent shortages resulting from other causes, he said. could be met by a more efficient distribution of the car supply.
 Various reasons for car shortages were assigned by other witnesses. Chief among them were the large vol ume of munition shipments to the sea board. the increased output of ore in the lake regions. and the removal of many colliers from the coal carrying trade along the Atlantic coast Each of the railroad representatives testify ing today recommended the efforts of the Interstate Commerce Commission in solving the situation.

AMERICANS FACE MEXICAN
 COURT
Youths Who Forfeited Citizen ship for Fighting for Villa, to Be Tried in Juarez for Stealing.
(By Review Leased Wire.)

FL PASO, Nov. 3.-Albert Herold. an American who, according to gov ernment agents forfeited his citizen ship by fighting under Villa, is held in the yuarez jail on the charge or cattle stealing, it was learned here to- night.
 George Herold. the father. said. however, that his son expected to proye ownership to the 150 head of Mexican cattle which he stands ac- cused of stealing and of trying to smuggle into American territory.
 The Carranza authorities state that three other Americans. whose names have not yet been learned here. were arrested on the same charge by Car ranza patrols below Ojinaga.
 Alfonso Leiva. born in Brownsville, Texas, of Americanized Mexican par ents, is another who has forfeited his citizenship. possibly at the expense of his life. government agents said to- night. Leiva held a commission un- der Villa but joined CarranZa's army with the rank of lieutenant colonel Two weeks ago he went to Juarez where he was arrested as Villa spy and sent to Chihuahua City for trial. American agents investigated but said they could do nothing. Nothing has been heard since of Leiva's fate.
