Automobile shows are ordinarily a
product Of the winter months. They
generally start New Years eve in New
York City and move westward, week
by week. until about the middle Of
March when they pass out of existence
until another winter rolls around No
matter what dealers in general may
think of this arrangement or long for
more frequent shows they generally
acquiesce i'm the general scheme Of
affairs as promulgated bz the big man
ufacturers. Not so. however, i'm hust-
ling Ell Paso. When dealer here
wants a show here he goes ahead and
has it whether it is winter or sum
mer, spring or fall. In FL PasO it is
a case Of he wants what he wants
when he wants it," and he goes ahead
and gets it.
So with the Buquor Motor company,
Maxwell and Jeffery distributors for
Mexico and the southwest. These
hustliug dealers wanted a show right
this week-in this month Of May-and
they went right ahead with their ar
engagements and had it. 1t began Tues
day and lasted all week. The location
was the company shOWrOOms and the
rooms were decorated especially for
the purpose with wealth Of flowers

one OF the special features OF the

ful white Maxwell with red and white
slip covers, etc, that was seen on the
streets Of FL PasO for a short time
Saturday afternoon and sunday. The
car was so striking in appearance that
it was purchased by a Maxwell enthu-
siast ten minutes after il made its ap-
pearance and there was another buyer
for it who put in his application ten
minutes later. The machine was sold.

BIC PLANS FOR
RIOGRANDEO OIL
Manager Says Big News is
To Be Given Motorists
Very Soon.

The Rio Grande Oil company will. in
future. confine its operations to oils
and gasoline, according to an announce
ment made on Thursday. The company
has dropped the Pennsylvania tire
agency and has closed it's depot on
Texas street but will maintain an oil
station on Myrtle avenue
oils and gasoline are a good BUSH
ness in themselves; tires are not in
their line at all and should be handled
by a separate company" said manager
E NJ Iockhart. 1--WE are extending
our gasoline and oil business so fast
that we simply haven't the time to
dabble with tires. There was only one
way TO settle the matter and we took it,
dropping the tires Pennsylvania tires
are, in my opinion. the best in the
market and they Will open a new
agency here very soon.
81 am not at present prepared TO
make announcement Of the nature of
our extensions but I can say that they
are the most important in the gasoline
business in FL Paso.
q returned from the oil fields last
week and while I was there I arranged
for a tremendous amount Of gasoline
for the next few months. We are Civ
ing the motorists high grade gasoline
and We intend to maintain that stand
ard. Every car of gasoline received
at our station is tested and we have
vet to find a car that is not up to the
high standard of efficiency on which
We insist.
"El Paso motorists are a loyal bunch,
I must say. and they are giving their
home oil and gasoline company the
strongest kind Of support. our bust
ness has been a big success and it is
getting bigger every week"

 A long time ago It is said the earth sank beneath the water and the water rose and covered the highest places. so that no man could live. It rained so hard l. was as If tho sea fell from the sky. All was black. and 1t became so dark that no man know another Then few people ran here and there and made rafts of cedar logs, but noth- ing could stand against the white waves and the raft was broken in two. On one part floated the ancestors of the Thlinkets. on the other the parents of all the other nations. The water tore them apart and they never saw each other again Now their children are all different and do not understand each other.-Ex.

 Feeling that his mission in Yukon has been fulfilled after going in and coming out ut was coming out that he was al- ways seem before the people for sixteen and a half years. nearly twelve of wnlcn were passed in Whitehorse. the Stroller has reluctantly concluded to move on 10 new fields, and this is probably the nnis of the Stroller as far as this paper is concerned
 While the Stroller verges on tears every time he thinks of his intended move, he has the assurance that hls labors in Yukon have not been in vain. When the Stroller first came to Yukon it was a wild. unfettered country. Then the Grand March was led by some par ka-moccasin clad mucker from Skoo- kum gulch and the lady called Lou Now the chief dignitary with lady ol his rank head the procession arrayed a la solomon. who took back seat oni, for the lilies of the field.
 The statement, Yukon is the health lest place for children on earth" is all bunk. Yukon has the healthiest chli- dren on earth. but that fact Is due 10 the Stroller's heart to heart talks with Mothers. which he has conducted-more or less on the sly-ever since he has been in the country.
