Pin ProUes Terrell
Wide AwaRe and His
Dream Has Come True

Frank Garrett got a letter this week
from Joe Terrell, former shop fore
man OF the Eliott-Garrett company,
but now with the national army al
Camp Travis. In part, Joe wrote:
MY dream Of motor life has come
true I thought I was still asleep
$50 officers in one mess here and
nearly all have motor cars. When /
looked over the lineup. I found every
car 10 be a Studebaker six
II that wasn't enough, found that
there is a bus line operating to The
camp which has 81 buses going. And
every one Of these is a Studebaker."
Terrell has already been relieved
from drill and is now driving the per-
sonal car Of the regimental com
mander-

other cars just as far in per-
Torrance as in quality.
It is a big, spirited, powerful
car.
It will flash over the road at so
miles per hour, travelling easily,
quietly and smoothly. Or it
will throttle down to ~ miles
per hour and pull along just as
steadily and smoothly.
And it picks-up with surpris-
ing briskness. The fleXbility
of the motor enables you to
drive without shifting gears
save in extreme cases.
It is a beautiful car. The lines
are gracefully smart. And the
inside is equally well designed.
ALI five passengers have plenty
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1917-10-13

of room-both in seat space
and leg length.
Saxon "Six" is constructed
lightly and balanced with ex-
pert accuracy.
That gives tires longer life and
adds mileage to every gallon Of
gas and oil.
It is an economical car to own.
Right now the price is 1895
f. o. b. Detroit. But Of course
no one can tell how long it will
be that low.
Every known condition Of the
material and labor market
makes it certain that all motor
car prices must soon advance.
So buy now while the present
price stands. Come in today.

Wonderful Performance of Saxon I"
Is Bound To Win You

Time after time we have COM
pared Saxon ''Six" with costly
cars.
We have shown you that Saxon
"Six" at $685. has IL of the
same features that 40 other cars
priced from $1115 to $4,000
have.
And all of these IL features are
essential features.
It was important for you to
know that. For it proves to
you how far Saxon "Six" out
classes in quality other cars
selling from $500 to $1115.
But the performance of Saxon
"Six" is just as important. And

Girls Bang Up Jail,
Then Calmly Escape

Tearing down with their hands
part OF the wooden walls OF the
old-fashioned cell they were held
in, Billie Walker and Helen Nc
Donald, dance hall girls serving
terms for vagrancy, escaped from
the city jail Monday night and
have not been found since.
Four other girls in the same
eel refused to take advantage Of
the opportunity, and remained In
Jail all night.
Formal charges of jail-break-
ing were preferred against the
girls in police court Tuesday
morning and the police in other
northwest cities were asked { o
look for them.
The escape was not discovered
until Z o'clock Tuesday morning,
and there was no way of telling
when the girls broke away.
Some Ladylike Pair!
The dance-hall girls had given
police officials considerable worry
because of their conduct in Jail.
Arrested Oct. II and given
30-day sentences for vagrancy,
they had made the day and night
hideous at police headquarters by
shrieking, singing at the top Of
their voices, swearing loudly, and
destroying everything that was
handed into the cell.
Monday morning the girls were
removed to an old cell in the up
per part of the jail which had for
merly been used by juveniles.
Here the girls proceeded to
tear up hunks, rip open blankets
and tear electric light wires from
the ceiling.
Monday night they were placed
In another upstairs cell, once used

las a hospital ward, four other
girls with them. This cell Ia
nothing more than dormitory
with thin partitioned walls.
Tear OFF Board.
Some time during the night
the two dance hall girls tore off
12-inch board from the wall.
Thru the opening they crawled in
to dark storeroom over the main
part of the police station. Lifting
a trap door, the girls let them
selves down into the mems lava
tory on the lower floor by means
of a narrow ladder, and escaped
from the building by jumping
thru window to a court.
They were fully clothed. but
their money and jewelry, taken
from them when they were arrest
ed, is still In possession Of the
police.
