or page or two as to show how this

get in line, or how that old recluse
and miser who had been hated all his
life for his stinginess came to the res
cue and bought all the stock at $IUu
a share and gave it to the city.
But there was absolutely nothing
Of the kind. When it was proposed
that the stockholders give up their
stock they give it up without saying
anything but LET 'er buck" And
they said the same thing as they dug
down in their pockets for an addi-
tional $4,000 with which to buy the
present Roundup grounds, build the
track, grandstand and bleachers.
Many Want share.
This property was taken in the
name of the City OF Pendleton and
the Northwestern Frontier Exhibition
Association pays the City of Pendle-
ton 81 a year for the use of it This
same Northwestern Frontier Exhibi-
ton Association is a corporation in
name only. The stock still has a
nominal value of $40 per share, but
its only real value is the fact that it
has voting power, The stockholders
still elect the directors, who put on
the Roundup, and for that purpose
alone this stock has sold as high as
$50 a share. A newcomer feels that
he Is not right down on a level with
the people of Pendleton unless he
owns a share of this stock. Hence
he Is willing to pay any price for it.

Hubmobile Shows
-Four Cylinders Enough

They see the Hupmobile take
hills on high, and go through
sand and mud on high, when
cars with more cylinders have
failed to do the same.
That is why the Hupmobile every
where is winning preference
over multi-cylinder cars.
1t is showing that with Hupmo-
bile construction, more than
four cylinders are unnecessary
to get every essential of per-
fOrmance.
It is demonstrating not only re-
markable hill-climbing and
mud-plugging ability; but it is
showing fast ,high-gear pick
up, quick get away, and amaz-
ing flexibility, in the cities.

SOME FACTS ABOUT ROUNDUP HISTORY

suag encountered was the inability
TO get the soldiers from Vancouver.
The second was the Indians refused
TO come in and be shot at, even WITH
blank shells However. some of them
agreed to come in If they were al
lowed to do the Shooting, regardless
of the kind Of shells used. This ne
ctssitated change in the program.
The final upshot OF it was that races
orOn2 ridlng and bulldogging were
substituted for the epic drama part
oh, yes the name of the corporation
that was formed was the Northwest
Frontier Exhibition Association. Ana
that is the official name of the cor
poration today, but it is a name only
OF course at that time, there were
great many suggestions as to what
the show itself should be called and
what the slogan should be. out OF
the mass of material submitted it was
decided to call it the Roundup"
and the slogan was Let 'er Buck"
First show Profitable.
The first Roundup was staged the
last Of September and the first two
days of October, 1910, and the gate
receipts were approximately $4,000
with a total expense of $4,000, leaving
$4,000 net profit for the stockholders.
But right here is where fate gave
first manifestation of her presence
and activity. There was something
peculiarly appealing about the little
show. What 1t was no one SCENE
able to say, but it had a fascinating
grip on all spectators and they could
not yell Let 'er buck' loud enough.
In other words. it had the pep and
was the goods. A big crowd was GER
tain in 1911. More gate receipts
and bigger profits
Over night almost the wise ones be-
gan buying up stock The price of
single shares went from the original
SO, to SIS, then to S25 and when a
New York theatrical syndicate tele-
graphed that it would buy the con-
trolling interest at $50 a share, the
people of Pendleton began to sit up
and take notice.
If there is any stage in the history
of the Roundup where it can be said
that right here the "Rendleton spirit"
was born or first manifested itself it
is at this point.
Civic Pride wins.
Here was a big money-making
proposition at least it looked like
it. outsiders were willing to pay the
local stockholders $500 for stock
that originally cost them only $500
and the other half of the stock would
have the same If nor higher value.
! The people began to think about
+ it. They began to say: Here, II
! this is such big thing that it Is worth
/ more to us than it is toa bunch OF
New Workers, who will probably take
I away from Pendleton in a year OF
two. We need something to put US on
the map, so let's keep the Roundup. y
A stockholders meeting was called
and the proposition put to them as a
matter of civic pride. They were
asked to give up their stock, practi-
cally throw away the $40 they had
put up for each share, throw away
the opportunity to self that share for
$50, give their show to the city OF
Pendleton and in aGd tion, dig down
into their pockets for an assessment
equal to the amount Of the stock to
build new grounds.

The directors who put on the

There is not a paid official connect

chance in the world for anyone
making money out OF it, yet no man
in any private business gives more

Abundant Proof
of Performance

And the proof of this extraordi-
nary performance is not lack
ing.
1t abounds in all parts of the
country.
It will be furnished here-gladly
any time, and anywhere; in
comparative demonstration, if
you like.
For example, not a multi-cylinder
car in Boston will enter into a
competitive d m on tration
with the Hupmobile on Corey
Hill.
The reason is that on the hardest
grade of this double hill, the
HupmObile goes from stand
ing start to 35 miles an hour at
the top-all the way on high
gear.
In New York the manufacturer
of a famous six has given so
much publicity to a certain hill
that has become known as His
Hill.
Yet the Hupmobile beats the per-
formance of that six on that
hill.

L n being sold to people
who once thought they
preferred six, an eight, or even
a twelve.
We say they once thought they
preferred one of the other
types.
Because one demonstration of
Hupmobile performance usu-
ally rids people of that idea.
How could it be otherwise, when
they see the four-cylinder
Hupmobile do all that any
multi-cylinder car does-and
with greater ease, as often as
not?

GERMANY PREPARING FOR
MORE NAVAL ACTIVITY

Berlin, Feb. 17.--Thc German press
seems to be deliberately exciting the
public interest in naval possibilities.
After months of almost absolute
silence about the navy, the papers are
now saying comparatively little about
anything else.
The Kreuz Zeitung states that
0ermany's naval operations have now
begun to outweigh all others. The
Journal then refers to the new memo
rAndum about submarine warfare. II
says:
About the question Of whether the
details Of the memorandum satisfy the
demands Of the German people wftd

our most important weapons we have

rata, In the immediate future we can
