thrilling automobile story Of "The
Race" which will be seen ut the Ye
Liberty theatre on Friday and Satur-
day, were taken in the exact locality
in which they happen / to Anita King,

transcontinental automobile trip the
story is founded. At one place during
her trip she encountered disastrous
washout. On their return to the place
to take the picture, it was found the
road and bridge had been replaced and
it was thought an other location would
have to be secured. During the night
prior to tneir' departure, another cloud
burst came and washed the bridge away
again. The next day they were able
to secure the scene exactly as it hap
lpened originally. In this perturbation

inheritance Tax Is
Wanted by States

Sacramento, Cal, May Estate
Controller J. s. Chambers started a
campaign by letter today against bills
which provide for a federal inheritance
tax. He is sending letters broadcast to
state officials throughout the United

congressman from their states to op.
pose the bills. Chambers sees danger
in a federal inheritance tax in the way
Of curtliling state revenue.
California for this fiscal year will
collect about $3,5OO,0O0 under its in.
heritance tax law and this immense
revenue, Chambers points out would
be cut down materially in the future
should there be a federal tax.

What Do You Know
About The Maxwell Car?

1E1IS is the time of the year when more
people are considering the question of
( what Car to buy than at any other time
of the year.
This community has its full share of people
who will soon be driving their first car or new
car to replace the old one.
Now, we know that we are going to sell Max.
well Cars to great many of these people-de-
pending upon how many we are able to acquaint
with the merits of the Maxwell.
The generous value offered in the car is so
Ovidentits past record is so full of good perform
ance-Owners speak SO well of it-that when the
buyer knows these things he is eager to buy a
Maxwell.
In order to tell as many people as possible
about the merits of the Maxwell Car we are going
to spend lot of money in the next few weeks in
this paper advertising Maxwell merits to those
who do not know them.
The reason-we want to sell as many Max
wells as possible this season. Our future aIIot-
ments will depend upon how many MaxweIs we
sell now.
You may know that the Maxwell market is a
buyers market, not sellers market-broadly
speaking. The demand for Maxwells the country
over is greater than the supply.

For this reason cars are allotted to dealers by
the factory according to the size Of the dealers
business.
We want to make showing and be in posi-
tiOn to get a generous allotment Of Maxwels
hereafter. Because the more MaxweIIs are sold in
any community, the greater il the future demand.
We realize the opportunity to do an everncreasing
Maxwell business.
This is only the FIRST Of the several messages
we are going to print-a few days apart-concern-
ing the Maxwell Car. But we don't expect to be
able to adequately present Maxwell merits in
printed words alone.
II you are one who is going to buy a new car
you will find it decidedly to your advantage to
find out all you can about the Maxwell before YOU
place your order
Come in and talk it over with us and let us
demonstrate the car to you. Then, don't take our
word alone, but ask those who now own MaxweIls.
Get posted" about the Maxwell and you will
realize more satisfaction and get more "value re-
ceived" for your motor car money than ever
before.
And we are just as willing to have you invest.
gate other cars just as fully as you do ours. The
Maxwell will not suffer by the comparison.
Why not start your Maxwell investigation
today?

Money Left m Cash Drawers

Another petty burglary occurred in the city last Friday night. This time it was the grocery store of 1. Sand.o vitz on south Main street that was en- tered. As in ail of the other breaks that have recently occurred about all that was taken was small change left in cash drawers and a cash register. TGe loss will not De over g
 The store is underneath sleeping rooms at the City Hotel The propri- etor lives in the rext building and there is a marrow alIeyway between. The burglars gained entrance from this alley by tearing q heavy wire screen oil window, breaking out B piece Of glass near the window catch and unlocking it. The cash drawers were pfied open and one Of them was left on Ihe top Of sugar barrel The cash register was unlocked so was not broken. The burglars then opened the front door, in which there WAS q key on the inside, and walked out onto South M ain street.
 The pecuIiarity of this recent series of breaks is the fact that the burglars do not generally take anything but money and do r5i take all of that. In one of the cash drawers was about fifty pennies that remained untouched and on the floor near the other was dol. lar CT two in small change. The pc lice are Of the opinion that II is the work of local men and men more or less familiar with the places they enter.
