LOCAL AGENT
SETS RECORD
III. +. O'BIRNE SELLS CAR \ DAY
FOR THIS LAST NEEk.
CHANDLER Is PRAlSEL
RECENT PURCHASER SAYS IT
WAS BUILT FOR VALLEY.
Strength and Durability, Together
With Graceful Vines. Makes 1t
Most Practicable for Local Use.

A sale day has been the splendic
record of the local Chandler automo-
, bile agency, managed by H. f
O'Byrne, for the week ending today
This has established a record fol
summer business in the automobile
;lne, is the belief of Mr.. O'Byrne.
The Chandler car is growing in
popularity, owing 10 its increased
weight in the rear end, which now Is
$50 per cent heavier than in ears OF
previous models. and to the increased
power, which shows a 80 per cent
gain over last years model. Six inches
has been added to the seating space,
and the Chandler now is the logical
fat mans car"
A Chandler fan, who purchased q
touring car from the local agency
early in the year. says that the Chan
dler was made for Imperial Valley.
The wear and tear Of the roads and
the heat of the valley has shown in
many cases that a car built for mild
er climates and city boulevards will
not stand up under conditions exist
ing in this locality. But the record
of Chandler sales made to old Chand-
Ter owners proves that there is no
disappointment in owning a classy
model of the Chandler in Imperial
county.
The car is built for wear and tear,
and not for city boulevards alone. and
its beauty and graceful lines make It
the most practical car for local use.

THINGS ABOUT

Days When Arizona Was

UBy Associated Press

Bisbee, Ariz., Aug 11,--This min
dng camp town, which has attracted
SO much attention recently because
OF the labor and l. W. W. troubles
here, is one of the most unique and
picturesque Of the old mining camps
Of the Southwest. Founded by old
time prospecUors who followed Ea
Scaiefflin, warren and other pioneer
into the Cochisc county minerallzeu
district, Bisbee is built on sop ot a
haf-dozen red hills and along ;nc
floor and sides OF as many more
gulches. The houses are perchsd on
high knobs or built one above the
otner on the sides of the gu.-hes
Because there are no streets cross
ing at right angles in the town, there
can be no block number system OF
numbering houses and, as a result,
the Bisbee postoffice IS said to he the
onelargest lock box postoffice in lie
United States, as practically every
one living within the corporate limits
rent boxes at the postoffice. The only
way the houses could be numbered
would be to start at the postoffice
and number in all directions, as there
is no system Of streets OF cross
streets.
Tombstone canyon, Brewery gulch,
O. X. avenue and Tintown trail are
among the leading streets, while Quai
ity hill, School hill, Art hill and Tin
town are among the best known sec
tions of the city. Bisbee. Lowell and

County Council Of Defense from Sen
ator Hiram johnson Of California, con-
tanning information from Brisadicr

given a thorough statement as to the
regulation Of the draft quota.

why Imperial Valley was apparently
nit harder than larger counties. All

Dun's review of Chicago trade,
published by r. G.. Dun * Co. says:
Together with the seasonable
weather. which has reinvigo.ated
consumption Of the necessaries and
stimulates the productive and dis
tributive branches. there appears 20
be less hesitancy as 20 the COM
mitments for the future, while
heavy payments and "a rise in dis
count rates I'm response TO charging
demands for money indicate that
business In the general sense Is pre-
pairing for a further advance.
Much depends upon results in
agriculture and IL is a source Of en-
couragement in manufacturing that
an unprecedented corn crop now is
rapidly maturing in Illinois and
other great producing sections. \
strong position in credits is not in
any way weakened by the CONNER
cial mortality. for that continues be-

tion i'm securities, no undue pressure

Payments through the banks no

gains i'm the week to-week COM
parsons. but this does not detract
from the fact that the daily aver
age at this time is almost 100000
900 above that in 1916. and clearly
testihes TO the exemption in activi-
ties.
Considering the effect upon
finance Of the Liberty loan hotation
and that nearly 5000. 900 has been
withdrawn through currency ship

months, the combined statements is

healthy exhibit in the important
items Of deposit, loans and cash re-

Money now is Of greater value
than i'm a long time past, and there
is abundant opportunity for its en-
Dloyment in ordinary cshannels, yet
there is no apprehension that a pc
riod of stringency impends or that
legitimate demands cannot be ac-
commodated. Western collections
show no adverse effect from labor
disturbances. Their sustained
promptness attests satisfactory re-
tail merchandising throughout the

Questions and AnswerS

Q.-Please answer the following
inquiry for me. / sold 10 shares I.
S. Steel common at III IS on Fri
day, July 20, and placed a stop on
it at 123 IS. Today ! received ad-
vice from my broker saying he had
bought 10 shares in at 123 "a on
Saturday, July 81 AS there were
some 1900 shares sold at 123 IS.
il seems TO me I should have had
this at 1913 IS. my stop price Am
I correct IN my belief?
Ans.-We believe that you were
very fortunate to get such a close
price to your stop price on this odd
lot. A stock TO be purchased or
sold on stop never means that you
are absolutely sure of getting that
stop price.
In odd lot trading there is always
a difference Of an Is, IA, or even
SIS to a half point in the prices as
compared with full or round lots Of
100 shares each. The odd lot broker
who does the business for the regu-
lar customers broker, 10 make their
business worth while, must charge
an eighth or more on purchase or
an eighth or more less on sales.
Twenty-three hundred shares sold
at 1913 SIS. This stock may have
been sold in one block or it may
have been sold in many blocks Of
100 or 800 or more shares.
As soon as the first hundred
shares sold at 123 SIS your order
became a market order and upon
your own instructions it was pur-
chased at the best available price.
The best available price was what
the odd lot broker offered to your
broker. which was Is above the
sales price.
The situation in this case plainly
shows that as soon as 100 shares
sold at 1913 SIS the price was bid
for more stock and the following
sales at 123 IS were in round lots.
Your broker could not expect the
odd lot broker to give him the
stock. only 10 shares at SIS.
Brokers Responsibility for Margin
Calls.
Q-Please let me know if a
! brokerage concern has a legal
/ claim on a customer for stock
/ bought on margin if it neglects
/ through mistake, TO not1--- --e Gus
! toner for a period of six months
/ that it had bought the stock and
/ the account in the meantime has
/ been closed. so that there is no
/ margin now on that particular stock
/ whatever.
