COLD WAVE CONESBUT
B. TURNER PAYS BET
Popular Leader OF Ontario Hand
Looks Cute i'm Neat Little Bonnet
During Zero weather.

The coldest November weather In
20 years hit Ontario this week. The
thermometer went down almost to
zero and a number of leading citi-
zens we're caught with small sup
ply Of coal on hand. There were al
so a number of automobile men who
failed to guage the weather Alright
and will have TO pay for frozen radi-
ators and broken water jackets.
Chilly Election Bet.
But the worst used individual in
town was Bryon Turner, the popular
leader of the band. Mr.. Turner
made a wager with A. +. Riddle, OF
the Democrat. that he would wear
straw hat for a week after election
IL Wilson won and II was his lot to
draw the coldest week OF the year for
the stunt. But Bryon has been game.
Braving both the elements and the
joshing OF friends he has appeared on
the streets daily with the cute little
straw piece perched Jauntily on his
crown much to the amusement OF his
friends.

-FOUR YEARS HENCE.

There is nothing TO be gained
in weeping over the results Of the late
election. The strength which the
republca party demonstrated should
encourage every partisan. That
any party, could in four years
after schism such as
took place in 1919. come
within n few votes OF electing a pres
ident. IL ample evidence Of It's funda-
mental soundness and the position
it's policies retain In the minds OF the
people
The republican party is In fact the
predominnte party In the nation to-
day. This is demonstrated by the
fact that II has the largest numbers
IN the house Of representatives., the
body that IL closest 10 the people. Not
only that but IN the largest states of
the union the administration of state
affairs Is In the hands OF republicans.
That II dld not elect Charles r..
Hughes 10 the presidency does not al
ter tho fact that the republican party
IL the strongest party. as such. II
merely Indicates that Woodrow VIII
son was stronger than his party at
this time why this was go cannot
be accurately stated There are
many reasons which might be- given,
some Of which prevailed In one Soc
tiou Of the nation, while others eff
fccted the result In other portions OF
this broad land
However. four years hence the sit
uation will be- radically changed Mr.,
Wilson viii have completed his sec

party will then be IN position such
as the republican party faced on the
retirement of Theodore Roosevelt II
will possess no leader of equal siren

out a working majority In the house
and bare majority In the senate for
the first half OF the presidential term,
and with but a minority party In all
OF the second session. should the re-
publican gains continue two years
hence. the democratic party will be
split by discention and internal strife,
for the harmony of interest between
the Northern democrats and Southern
Bourbons is never too marked at any
lime,
b On the other hand the past cam
paign has demonstrated that there Is
basis OF common understanding
among republicans, Dispute the ef-
fort OF President Wilson TO steal the
tariff position of the republican party
IL Is evident that the people did not
accept the democratic position in the
campaign Therefore the tariff and
internal policies will be the funda- /.
mental differences in the campaign 7
four years hence and on that ground
the battle will be fought
with new leader for the demo
cratic party with the republican par
ty more firmly united, with the mem-
ory of i9l2 still farther in the past, .
then the campaign will be a real test
of the strength of each party. Then,
too, there will be little doubt of the
outcome,

NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS AND
ADVERTISERS.

During the current year the price
of the paper on which the Argus is
printed each week has increased ov-
er 200 per cent The price OF ink
used has increased over so per cent,
and many of the o'hor materials such
as press rollers have shown proper
tionate rises. There Is therefore but
one thing for the management of the
Argus 20 do; namely, to increase the
price OF the paper to the subscriber
and the cost OF advertising space to
the advertiser.
In taking this step the Argus real
tics that like nearly every merchant
in this field II must absorb a portion
OF the enhanced cost and therefore
the rises given below will be less
than the proportionate rise In the
cost OF producing this paper each
week

~
Tor some time past have realized owing to rapidly
increasing business in the metropolitan territory,
that it was essential to provide customers proper
service facilities, that we should handle the New York
district business under direction and supervision
as factory branch In this connection our policy called
for buildings conveniently located and suitably equipped
to extend the very best possible service in connection
with every branch of the business.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1916-07-16

On Friday, July 18th, conditions over
which we had no control made it neces-
sary for us to take steps Immediately to
make use of whatever facilities were avail
able to handle the business direct.
We have already established the following
facilities:
A temporary show room at 1S26-1S2S
Broadway, between 59th and Goth streets,
in which new models of Overland and
Willys-Knight cars are being displayed.
A Service Station at 15Oth and Gerard
Avenue, Bronx, comprising floor space
of 10000 square feet. A stock of $780,
100000 worth of Overland and WHY'S
Knight parts is already available at this
building, for repair and service needs.
Salesrooms and Service Stations will be
opened in a few days in Brooklyn and
Newark.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1916-07-16

For permanent and complete service
needs we have in process of construction
ten-story building extending from 57th
to 58th street between 10th and 18th ave-
nues which will contain a total floor space
of 100000 square feet. This building
will not only be centrally located in the
heart of Manhattan, but will be equipped
with every known device to execute work
quickly, efficiently and economically.
Mr.. Edwin B. Jackson, formerly President
of the Packard Motor Car Company of
New York, has become associated with the
Willys-Overland Company, at Toledo, in
an executive capacity, and will devote
large share of his time to the creation and
development of an organization in the
metropolitan district to provide the owners
of Overland and Willys-Knight cars with
the attention and service to which they
are entitled.

DEED TO PENINSULA
SCHOOL PROPERTY
HELD UP BY DEATH

a joint meeting of members of the
Volusia county board OF public instruc-
ton and of the Seabreeze- Daytona
Beach school trustees was held in
Daytona on Monday evening. for the
purpose Of discussing ana finding a
way out of a peculiar difficulty in
which the boards found themselves,
as a result of the death recently of
Horace F. Stewart.
In adding to the Seabreeze-Daytona
Beach school property, it seems that
the county board and peninsula school
trustees purchased from Mr. Stewart,
through his agent, Hadwin Courtney,
three city lots. Although the deal had
actually been made, Mr. Stewart died
without having signed the formal
transfer of the property, and thus
arose a hitch in the proceedings
While Mr.. Courtney had authority to
act while his client was alive, he could
not automatically become administra
tor of the latter's estate.
Present at the meeting Monday
night, besides Chairman Geo. F
Crouch and others, were c. R. NJ
Sheppard. county school superintend
ent; B. E. Prevatt, member of the
county school board, and Attorney
Dorsey Hull, of the law firm of Ian
dis, Fish & Hull. of DeLand Aftel
a rather lengthy discussion of the sit
uation, a tentative decision wa:
reached and the meeting adjourned.
1t is probable that a niece of Mr.
Stewart, Mrs. Fay Riddles, of Cleve
land, Ohio, viii be appointed TEN
porary administrator of his estate
and that after this legal requirement
has been complied with there will b
no further difficulty attending the ez
ecution of the deed in question.
