Evangelical Lutheran Trinity church
in Lincoln township last Sunday, it
being the annual Mission services
Rev. H. Schmidt, of Dexter. Rev. A.
j. Mueller, Of Carroll, and Rev. Iver-
sen Of Glidden, were the visiting
brethren who assisted the pastor,
Rev. e. J. W. Starck. An exception
ally large congregation was present
in the forenoon. For the afternoon
service the attendance was somewhat
smaller owing to the rain early in the
afternoon which made 1t impossible
for automobiles to travel. However,
in the evening there was a very large
attendance and everyone present was
impressed with the delightful dis
course given by Rev. Ive-scn. He
delivered a great massage and it fell
on responsive hearts.
Rev Starck accompanied Rev.
Schmidt and Rev. Iversen to Audi

morning. Both of these gentlemen
were pleased to see the improvements
made in the city and both of them
spoke very highly of the progressive

MAXWELL IS CENTER
Of SHOW ATTRACTION

When the annual automobile show
opened at Grand Central Palace, New
York City, on Saturday, January 8, II
was from the tonneau Of Maxwell
touring car that the inaugural festiVi-
ties were conducted. The big show
was launched from the Maxwell ex-
hibit. at once proving that Maxwell is
q center of attraction, no matter what
the setting.
1t was an inspiring scene. Thous-
ands of visitors were PACKED aDOu,
the Maxwell booth when F~o-"'~
tiugo, secretary of the state of New
York, arose to form
the show The press of people was 50
great that only those Al III. .e,. 49,
row could see him and in response to
the entreaties of those at the back he
consented to mount pedestal to de-
liver his address.
Turning around. he asked permis-
sion to use a Maxwell car from which
to make his speech. Accordingly. a
touring car was placed in position
in front of the exhibit and once more
the Maxwell name became a large fac
tor in an epochal event.
So from the beginning. Maxwell
headquarters was the center of at
traction at the show and it has con-
tinued so right to the end of the week.
None but stock models were shown at
the exhibit in Grand Central Palace.
A cut-out chassis and a Maxwell parts
board were two interesting features
Of the display.

CALIFORNIA MUD
EASY FOR JEFFERY

Once again the Jeffery Quad has
demonstrated its ability to combat all
sorts of opposition and work its way
through mud and sand. over rocks and
across country where there were no
roads and where even pleasure cars
and horse drawn light vehicles were
stalled. 1t was declared that it was
a hopeless task for any motor to at
tempt the trip, but the Jeffrey did 1t,
and not only once. but a number of
times, in the rescue work of the two
government aviators who were lost in
Lower California.
During the ten-day search for these
two men, when the public at large was
watching with undated interest for
some word of rescue. a two-ton JEFF
fiery Quad truck was of material as
sistance to the government in con-
veying supplies and equipment to the
camps of the searching parties below
the line, and who were depending en-
tirely on the Quads ability to push its
way through and deliver to them the
necessities for keeping them alive
The Jeffrey was driven by Curley
Brumley of Imperial valley. who, after
his second trip, stated that the roads
where they found them to travel on
were next to impossible, due to the
storms which had been raging through
out that section, and that in one place
he saw an empty wagon mired in the
mud, which had been abandoned be-
cause the horses could not pull it out.
Load Exceeds Capacity
Mr.. Brumley stated that on both Of
I his trips the load carried was much
heavier than the regular capacity of
the truck, but because Of the fact that

Bowie Made Freight Division
...l Point.

Bulletins posted in the Southern
Pacific Offices at Bowie announce
the establishment at that point of a
freight division terminal. The Gre
alton there of a freight division is
said to be due partly to increasing
freight traffic and partly on account
of the long haul from Lordsburg to
Tucson.
Twelve train crews will be put in
service Immediately and more add
ed later. At present the town is
suffering from house famine, and
many new dwellings will have to
be erected to accommodate the incom-
ing railroad men and others who
will move their families there. An
approximate increase in population
of five hundred is estimated on ac-
count of the establishment of the
freight terminal.

Southern Pacific To
Favor Home Work
The Company Will Build
Its, Box, Stock and Flat
Cars of Materials
Produced Along
It's Lines

Announcement that the Southern
Pacific Company has adopted the
plan of building all its wooden
freight cars, such as box and fiat
cars, at its own shops and will make
them from lumber produced along
it's lines, was made by President
William Sproul. who returned from
New York, and other Eastern cities.
The plan" said Mr.. Sproul, is
in furtherance of our policy to favor
home industry and will provide a
good market for a great deal of wes-
tern timber. The construction will
be done principally at our Sacra-
mento shops. So Our local payrolls
and those of the mills supplying us
will be increased. We plan to build
as soon as possible 1000 box, $50
stock and 500 fiat cars These,
added to the 2, 700 new refrigerator
cars just ordered by the Pacific
Fruit Express Company, of which
about 1000 will be built in Califor-
MIA, will give us $3.50 new freight
cars for the coming season, enough
to ward off the hardships through
shortage of railroad equipment ex-
perienced this season, provided we
can get Our cars returned to us after
they are unloaded at destination.
The Southern Pacific as you know
is half owner of the Pacific Fruit
Express
Mr.. Sproul said that the prosper
ity of the East and middle West is
not merely coming here, but is
already here.
The prosperity we have here"
he said, is different in nature from
that of the East, but it is just as
positive. Our mineral industries
are very prosperous. The increas-
ed wealth of the East has produced
a crop of consumers who are pay
ing good prices for wheat, barley,
fruits and vegetables and lumber
that we have to offer. Never before
has there been such a vast multi
